Remember Chappie? The awful movie about the sad robot with gangster friends? Remember Die Antwoord? Well, the South African music duo are claiming that Suicide Squad director David Ayer copied their style and exploited them in the DC movie.
If I squint and you hit me very hard across the head, I can sort of see the resemblance between Suicide Squad’s Joker and Harley and Die Antwoord. There is something there no doubt, but com’on… these are popular DC characters.
Regardless, of whether you agree or not, Die Antwoord have called out Ayer on Instagram regarding the matter:
Regarding the Instagram “call out”: were there even any words in that? I saw a bunch of letters, but nothing that indicates any sort of intelligible message. I could make more sense out of ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs than out of that nonsensical garbage.
Lol
Die Antwoord is ‘n rippoff to start with! Their black & white graf style & our opening sequence to umshiniwamis so ripped off and now its sommer theirs?? Agg please man these zef niggaz think the world is ripping them off asif they are the original homosapien and the whole world reflections thereof! Only in their little zef heads can any resemblance even be imagined! DC & Marvel for that matter must sue them for jocking their style! There aignt anything these two yolaninja foolz can come up with that DC or Marvel have not forgotten already.. twice over! Yeah an all da lil tiny details u nibbel constantly in “your” new “work” dat other people wont see but we comic fan do notice! All I can say to Die Antwoords accusation is.. BWAA HA HA HA HAHA!!! Must want to be the Joker.
ha ha ha ha ha ha this is classic, i seriously cant stand Die Antwoord but really ha ha ha ha ha they should get out of singing and go into stand up.
Die Antwoord are a bunch of idiots
Ok obviously Die Antword is stupid ok. First off people can do what they want everyone takes a little of everyones style all the time and the thing is the way they did it was with so many little things that multiple people do. And usually when people copy the way you do things its because they like them and they want to show respect to them. So thats my next point is that you should be like oh ok cool he likes our style or like wow he listens to us and stuff like that because honestly until now i have never heard of Die Antword so like seriously. And my last point is that they are obviusly dumb AND INSTEAD OF TRYING TO START SHIT MAYBE THEY SHOULD LEARN PROPER SPELLING AND GRAMMAR, BECAUSE THEY OBVIOUSLY SUCK AT IT. So Die Antword just shut up its a good movie stop trying to start stuff and grow up!
There’s nothing “new” about her look, and his is basically ripped from Iggy Pop, anyway…
