Suicide Squad Actually Has an Oscar Now and the Internet Can’t Believe It
The poorly reviewed Suicide Squad can now call itself an Oscar-winning film. The superhero movie won for Best Makeup in one of the early categories at the Academy Awards on Sunday night. People took to Twitter to joke that Suicide Squad now has as many or more Oscars than classic films like The Shining, Vertigo, Citizen Kane and even this year’s awards favorite La La Land, though that will likely change later in the night.
Oscar count: Suicide Squad: 1. The Searchers: 0. The Shining: 0. Touch of Evil: 0. Once Upon a Time in the West: 0. Paths of Glory: 0.

Suicide Squad had the same number of Oscars as Leonardo DiCaprio. Seems wrong.

Suicide Squad had a rotten tomatoes score that's about equal to Chris Christie's approval rating in NJ.
