Birds of Prey - Maybe gateskeeping isn't the best way to get people to support your cause after all.

Please don't fool yourself, that is no the reason this movie bombed, because the same thing happened with Captain Marvel and Wonder Woman, and they where success. Whenever we have a super hero movie with a leading lady you have these guys coming out of the wood work, there are two extremes, the misogynist who try to hide it with a he-man club mentality, and the hardcore SJWs which may or may not exist. Both groups are kind of insignificant in the grand scheme of things however. Captain Marvel was a success, and so is Wonder Woman, then what happened to Harley?. 3 strikes: Strike one the movie is basically a sequel to Suicide Squad a movie which has not a good reputation. Strike 2: the movie is called Birds of Prey, no casual movie audience even know what those are. Strike 3: the marketing of the movie was not great at showcasing the movie's strengths: the villains on these are amazing, but you wouldn't know this by the trailers .
