    There's nothing sloppy about the article. Your post however here however
    is as sloppy as it comes. Rather than argue against what the article
    actually says you've chosen to argue against a strawman.

    Seriously, what did you smack your head into that caused you to believe
    that this was written by a Suicide Squad apologist:

    Suicide Squad's poor reception isn't entirely down to its business
    model -- all manner of issues with its writing and game design
    have also been the subject of significant criticism, and at heart
    we still lack an answer to the broader question of which Warner
    Bros executive hit their head incredibly hard a decade ago,
    waking from their concussion with a deep-seated and entirely
    baseless conviction that the world really, really wants a lot
    of Suicide Squad movies and games.
