Suicide squad (~~2018~~ 2016) was a disaster and a tremendous letdown.

Though that was clear by the time it actually hit cinemas, so more of a continuous descent from its first announcement to its actual release

*2016

WB hired the people who put together the trailer to edit the movie. The results were...not good.

True, although I think that was not the first of its failings... There has been a lot of post-mortem analysis, some real gems among the video essays that got made on it, at least.
