The idea of Suicide Squad is that the government give imprisoned bad guys time off their sentences if they go on what amounts to suicide missions. If they get caught the gov has plausable deniability. The tend to implant explosives at the base of the con's skulls to make sure they don't go off mission. Joker is there just to cause chaos.
Oh, awesome. Some good Cliff Notes there, thanks.
August 2016?!? Does it really take that long to film a movie?
It takes awhile to film one but not that long. Releasing a movie at the right time is held into consideration as well. There are movies out there that are completed and not released for years.
