Suicide Squad: 28 WTF Moments

8. Deadshot's Fantasy Isn't His Fantasy

There's an interesting bit in Suicide Squad where Enchantress shows all of her enemies their heart's desires, to distract them from fighting her. You know, exactly how Scarlet Witch does in Age Of Ultron... Someone's been watching recent comic book movies.

Anyway, when it comes to Deadshot, who it's been established is singularly driven about bettering the life of his daughter, she shows him Batman, dead by his own hand. It's a nice little fantasy, but it doesn't make any sense.

Deadshot's fantasy is his daughter going to an Ivy League school and living with him, and Enchantress even seemingly remembers this like 5 minutes later when she takes his daughter's form to try and stop him blowing her up. The Batman thing is just a cheap shot for effect.
