Now this is a film we'd love to see.

Everyone may still be buzzing after the latest trailer for David Ayer's Suicide Squad dropped, but it hasn't taken long for the fan parodies to appear all over the internet. Chief amongst them is this marvellous effort by the Unusual Supect, in which the YouTuber recreates the trailer with footage from The Lord of the Rings. It paints the likes of Gandalf, Aragorn, Legolas and Gimli as a gang of anarchic antiheroes, rather than noble warriors, and makes the epic film look like a thrilling romp - called 'Ring Squad'. We can't bloody wait for SS, but we kind of wish this version of LotR was a thing too... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TE05d0QyaZc
