There's an innate tragic element to supervillains who aren't even that good at being bad."
James Gunn compared this film to GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY (2014) he spoke about the the two franchise's inherent differences, with: I think you know from the beginning of the first Guardians that most likely, in his heart, Peter Quill is good, Gamora is good, Rocket is good, Drax is good. While both THE SUICIDE SQUAD and GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY contain a wild group of comic book heroes fighting together, the teams couldn't be more different. One contains heroes that fight for good (and money), while Task Force X is made up of villains and killers. And when compared to Guardians, Gunn made it clear that the main distinction will be exactly who makes up each team. Gunn went on to speak about the group of villains in Task Force X, saying: "Some are not good people. They're bad people. It's less sentimental in that way. King Shark is much less sentimental than Groot."
