Suicide Squad Theory

If you haven't seen The Fangirl on YouTube, then you really should.
I get annoyed at people who always bring up conspiracy theories and hidden messages all the time (like anyone who's been shown the same Disney 'connections' over and over again) but I can watch The Fangirl without getting angry. Plus her voice is very soothing.

Her Coraline theories are excellent and show a lot of creative thinking and different perspectives so when I saw she had a Suicide Squad theory I was drawn in.

Click the link here to go to the video I'm referencing.

Even people who like the movie have to agree that there are a lot of plot holes and unexplained hoo-hah in that pile of flaming dog doo-doo and anyone that thinks they can make sense of it deserves a listen. Unless they worked on the movie, in which case you can ignore them forever. 

"Now picture this hand is your last few movie choices - I want to see disappointment.. sadness and.... PERFECT!"

So the title is 'Harley's NOT crazy and the Enchantress never dies' - let's discuss. 

1.  We're reminded of how similar the Enchantress' fantasy worlds are to the ones in the Matrix and that Enchantress seemingly has so much power she can tell where the Squad is and completely takes everyone in with her constructs - except El Diablo because his is too perfect.
   
   
2. Harley Quinn is shown to have a normal looking family and is only surprised to say 'he married me' not 'oh I have twins now' or 'no more crime for us!'
   A theory about Harley actually having had kids but they were taken away hence the baby romper suits in Joker's knife circle.
   
   
3. Pointing out Harley's behaviour as decidedly lucid and self aware despite her admission that she's off her medication. Examples given are the way she analyses her team mates in the extended cut, failing to show any reaction to the loss of medication and constantly referring to herself as crazy but showing herself to only be pretending to be so she can hang out with the Joker. I agree with this.
   
   

   

   "No, there's nothing in your grill"

4. Therefore, Harley Quinn could not have simply walked up to Enchantress (insert meme here) knowing full well she was going to (steal Katana's sword and her job) to kill Enchantress, as Enchantress can read minds.
   
   

   

   Much like Google's predictive text

5. Stating that Enchantress and Incubus are basically God-like powerful souls trapped in new bodies - the theory is that you can't just kill them with conventional weapons. This has been pointed out before by literally everyone - especially when we see the blueberry headed minions being taken out by either several gunshots or one baseball tap from a certain hot panted lightweight. It's an issue because there's a terrible gauge for power levels here but clearly Enchantress and Incubus would have to be resealed in a statue to be defeated.
   
   
   
6. Pointing out that Waller should have been all over this (instead of doing nothing) unless that's why Katana was there in the first place, because she HAS A SOUL STEALING SWORD (unfortunately Katana wasn't allowed to do anything either). Either way, this would have made for a much better movie because seriously.. why the FUNK was Katana there if not to do this?
   
   
   
7.  Suicide Squad did NOT defeat Enchantress. She locked their minds in an elaborate, multi-layered illusion to think that they had a) broke free of the first, perfect, illusions and then b) killed Enchantress and her brother. Enchantress had already proven she could use her pretty much unlimited multi-tasking powers to take away every single Squad member's weapon in one fell swoop and stop them in their tracks... but she chooses to engage them in fisticuffs? Seriously?
   
   
   
8.  With the Squad breaking out of Enchantress' first illusion test, this shows that none of them would have made loyal servants for her, and are therefore not allowed to 'wake up' - staying in the new illusion in which 'they won' - Joker's alive and improbably coming for Harley and Deadshot gets to see his daughter who hasn't aged at all. The age thing isn't a big deal breaker, considering we don't get much of a gauge of time in this whole stinking movie but the Joker thing is interesting. 

I disagree with this theory as a whole because Ayer is just not smart enough to run with this concept even though it would make a much more enjoyable movie than the darkened smeary snorefest he gave us. I wish this theory was the case because it does make a lot of sense. 

Enchantress was ridiculously over powered to the point where she's reading minds, sucking information out of Waller, commanding an army of blueberry monsters, creating multiple simultaneous illusions, reading minds, sensing presences, building a 'machine' and fighting the Squad WHILE PLAYING DANCE DANCE REVOLUTION... for hours on end! 

As if the Squad had any chance to defeat her - as if the Squad had any chance to be minor threat to an evil Superman - the entire 'reason' they were formed in the first freaking place.

 

Let's face it - we have a wannabe psycho with a baseball bat, a guy who shoots things okay, as guy with boomerangs that never really gets to do anything, a crocodile guy who goes for a swim like once for some reason, a samurai with a SOUL STEALING SWORD who doesn't get to do anything, a flame guy who doesn't want to do anything, an army dude and a bunch of other army dudes. Oh yeah and some guy with ropes that lasted all of 0.5 seconds. 

I choose to believe this is the case - that Enchantress won in the kindest way possible over these random jerks who had literally no chance against her. It helps me maintain my sanity in a world that a movie this poorly thought through can exist and be making money and spin offs.
