Why Women Relate to Harley Quinn
With the build up to the Suicide Squad movie spanning nearly TWO WHOLE YEARS and a promo that rivaled some of the biggest movies to date, this gang of misfits had a lot to live up to. With names like Jared Leto and Will Smith amongst the stars, it was hard to know who would steal the show, but Margot Robbie's portrayal of the Joker's battered lady friend Harley Quinn has definitely taken center stage.

Best Worst Spoof Movies
Spoof movies used to feature some of the best parody and satire to ever come out of Hollywood. The likes of Airplane and Young Frankenstein were some of the funniest comedies of their respective eras. Practically every genre Mel Brooks chose to parody turned into comedic gold. But in recent years the spoof movie has fallen from its previous cultural height. Somewhere along the line, people seemed to forget that making a movie parody didn’t mean copying its every plot point and making sophomoric jokes that could barely pass muster on a middle school playground. But somehow, terrible comedy writers took all of the wrong lessons from the masters of the spoof movie. In a way, the modern spoof movie is such an exquisite form of anti-comedy that their almost kind of hilarious in how unfunny they manage to be. So we’ve dug through the bottom of the barrel to bring you our picks for some of the best worst spoof movies of all time.
