Suicide Squad Poster Analysis

This is the poster for "Suicide Squad" this movie came out mid 2016 and was very successful. We get told a lot from this poster for example we can get some genre indicators just from looking at the characters and the animation. We can tell that the genre for this movie is a Action as we can see weapons these usually connote to an action movie, we can also see what looks like an animated explosion with all the characters in the cloud of smoke, this also suggests that its an action movie as explosions connote to violence and action sequences. We can also see all the main characters in the movie and the poster has split the antagonist from the protagonist. Showing all the main characters in the movie going from top to bottom we can expect who we will see more in this movie, for example at the top we see Joker (Jared Leto), Harley (Margot Robbie) and Deadshot (Will Smith) so we can expect these characters to have a lot of showtime and these be the most popular characters whereas the characters at the bottom like Killer Croc (Adwele Akinnuoye) and Slipknot (Adam Beach) would not be shown as much. The explosion of different colours on the poster makes us intrigued and look at it for quite a while. The posters main colours are purple and green this could suggest a dark side vs light side type film but as the green isn't the best colour to choose to show good it could suggest evil being good and purple showing good doing evil. All over the poster it has animations of all sorts of random things or objects, this could suggest we will see these things in the movie and they may well play an impotant part of the props. For example we can see a skull like picture, a car, a dice and a bullseye. We are left with a few enigmas from this poster for exmple why villains having to work with good guys? What do these animations mean? and What will be the main plot of this movie?
