Harley is like Superman: a symbol for merch, not a popular character.
Why didn't you see my movie, Yas Forums?

Because they liked Suicide Squad and still like Suicide Squad. They bought thinking of THAT Harley, not the new wine aunt version of her.
You've no idea of SS is beloved by this niche crowd.

user, if that were true then the BoP movie would have done better.
She made the mistake of making Harley more of her rather then figuring out what people liked about the character and doubling down on it while slipping a bit of who she is in there too.
She fucked it up.
Feminists are mostly creepy perverts and evil scum. Most "jawless neets" have better standards and would rather go full monkmode then ruin their lives.

No data worth scanning. Useless.

I saw it but women still keep attacking me on social media which makes me upset
The plot sucks but there’s plenty of good action scenes. Apparently they got the guy who did the John Wick action scenes on board. Not that good action can carry a bad film but it was nice
Black Mask? He didn’t come across as gay or woman hatey at all. Unless you interpret that one scene where he forces some female guest in his club to stand up on a table and dance while crying and her male friend is forced to cut off her dress with a knife, as woman hatey. That was kinda weird. Is that what women want? When click bait articles praised the film for being “less male gaze-y” (which doesn’t mean what they think it means) this is not what I expected. And the way he dies is dumb and anticlimactic.
People love SS Harley? That film was basically just a bad zombie apocalypse movie. But more importantly Harley in that film defines herself in how much she loves Joker, and also Joker is shown to care about her a great deal. Then we jump into BoP Harley and she suddenly hates everything about him and we’re told how much of a cunt he was without anything actually shown or any details. At the end of SS he broke her out of prison. When did he become the bad guy?

Timing could've been an issue, too. It might not be an outright rejection so much as BoP debuted on a month that people traditionally don't go to watch movies outside of Valentine's Day. They might've been banking on more people going to watch it on the 4-day holiday, but then Sonic took the attention from every movie that weekend.

I can't speak for the normalfags, but most of the girls who pull Harley at my LCS(and it's only girls at this point) weren't excited for this movie. Sure they still like the character, but they know consistency depends on the writers over the actor. Most common complaints were that it should have been a Gotham City Sirens movie, that none of the characters were recognizable as their comic counterparts(this came from ones who never read Birds of Prey too, it still rubs them the wrong way which was cool to find out), and about half of them just didn't like Suicide Squad.

Hot Topic Chads and Staceys love EVERYTHING SS. I'm sure Gunn will have a rude awakening when he see that the same crowd won't like his version of SS which will probably be less "street" and "gangsta". I'm curious to see the follow out from that one.
