      No it’s a sequel, they literally say that multiple times in the show? Did you even watch it? how can peacemaker have flashbacks to something that happened before he’s even done it? The series is set 5 months after the events of suicide squad 2, and it tells you this multiple times throughout.

      What's funny is that if you remember The Rock and several other wrestlers appeared on an episode of SNL back in the late 90's or maybe even 2000? and The Rock was the stand out among them for displaying comedic timing and charisma and a willingness to do stuff for the bit and not taking himself too series. Fast forward 20+ years and yeah, like you said, he's pretty much the same character in everything now, and Cena and Batista do more actual acting than he does. Like, what happened?

    • @smartii3s
      @smartii3s ปีที่แล้ว +36

      because, as the others above have said, Cena isn’t taking himself as seriously. Cena is fine being the bad guy in a film, Cena doesn’t need to have all his characters be the badass good guy hero that do the eyebrow raise and win every film. Cena isn’t just playing himself or playing the exact same character every film like the Rock is. The Rock can hardly act whereas Cena actually has a wide range in comparison.

      And yet people still want to talk shit about Gunn's new Superman. Henry Cavill is to what the 2016 Flag is😂

    Don't know if I'm overanalyzing, but I feel like the close up shot of Flag's heart being stabbed is meant to parallel the death of Enchantress, whose heart also had to be destroyed, and by him.
