Just when I thought I couldn't be more excited about this movie, they throw in a live adaption of Killer Croc! If they add Clayface this will officialy win me over to the potential of the DC cinematic universe...

Great choice!! This movie is doing great things with the casting.

Of all the movies that DC has announced for its cinematic universe, this is the one I am most excited for

Wait, this is in addition to Ray Olubowale joining the cast? Speculation was that he was going to play a character like King Shark or Blockbuster. Now Adewale is also being cast as Killer Croc? Aren't these characters too similar for the same movie? It's almost as if the reports are confusing the two actors for the same role...

Croc??????????
BASED AYER IS BASED.
Give me the Shark and the Croc at the same time and this movie will officially be godlike.

How long is the run time for this flick? It feels like too much in a short time span. We haven't even seen BatFlek yet and all of his villains are getting there own movie. I mean don't get me wrong I am excited but it feels rushed. Crocodiles is an awesome character as well and I like who they picked but it's getting to feel like too much is going on. I really hope DC doesn't mess this up trying to us the Avengers formula and trying to tell too much story in one film. Leto as Joker was a perfect casting I really would hate to seem him wasted on a failed experiment and possible reboot to fix mistakes... signed concerned fan.

Is it wrong that I am more excited about SS than BVS?

Looks like David Ayer's Suicide Squad is gonna be a movie of cameos.

Why does no one get that outside of maybe 6 characters the rest of these guys will probably be cameos and may not even have lines but be just seen in their cells in passing?

Agreed

Because they didn't say if they were or not because they are a squad....They can have more than 5 people on a mission and they are doing this as a side story from what we know so far. Any of these characters could die in this movie or join the action in the middle who knows??

With some of these, I'm almost wondering if they are just lay-ups for future movies. Like, while Flagg is putting together the team, he says "We need a strong man", they bring up the files on both Croc and Shark, and he picks one. End of role, but set for future movies.
OR, they are gonna do a joke about Asylum Studios with Super-Croc VS MegaShark. If King Shark somehow gets sucked into a tornado, we'll know for sure.
