9 Marvel Movie Plots That DC Should Totally Rip Off
2. Suicide Squad - Guardians Of The Galaxy
The Basic Premise: A ragtag group of imprisoned criminals assembles to take down a greater evil. Though morally flawed, we come to realize that these characters are willing to put aside personal gain to protect people as they fight to take down a manic force of nature. How DC Could Make It Better: Arguably what made Guardians Of The Galaxy so successful was its unique voice. From the music to the humour, it was far from a standard superhero film and audiences loved that. If Suicide Squad is to be a hit, its going to need to capture that same unique quality, albeit with a different tone. Judging by the trailer and director David Ayers track record, we can expect a much darker film than Guardians. But Suicide Squad cant just be dark for the sake of being dark, if it wants to elevate this premise, it needs to make this darkness a central part of its identity. That could mean some seriously irredeemable main characters, bone-crushing action or a lived-in setting. And considering that the villain of Guardians was one of its biggest letdowns, a disturbingly realistic Joker could make their struggle together all the more meaningful.
