27. Suicide Squad
Premise of the movie: Suicide Squad was the chance to bring the villains of the DC world together on screen. Harley Quinn, The Joker, Deadshot, and more joined forces to help save the world. It was an interesting concept, but not one that completely worked out. Many fans excited for the movie weren’t too happy that the movie was mostly focused on the relationship between Harley Quinn and The Joker.
Why it needs the Lego treatment: The Supervillains have already made their way in Lego form. Lego Batman saw The Joker, Harley Quinn, and many more attempt to take down Bruce Wayne once and for all. It didn’t work, but it certainly opened the door for a Suicide Squad creation.
Because Suicide Squad was slightly underwhelming, a Lego treatment would help to repair some of the damage. Fans would get the chance to see how it should have worked; how the team should have worked together.
Graphics were good, but animation helps to create something better. There’s more imagination that can be thrown in, making monsters really come to life. Lego superheroes have a habit of being cutesy, but when focused on the villains, there’s a chance to go darker and grittier. Something that has never really been done. Suicide Squad would be the perfect storyline to start with that to see the reaction.
