I saw someone on TMS argue that the writers on Suicide Squad didn't have a clear handle on the Joker/Harley relationship, trying to mimic some of the abusive aspects from the comics while also trying to get viewers to like the relationship and want it to continue. I haven't seen the movie, but my experience is that confused canon often makes for confused fanon.

Agreed

From what I've heard, in the original edit of Suicide Squad, Joker throws Harley out of a helicopter to try and kill her. In the edited, they make it look like he did it to try and save her.

Having seen the movie...how would that make sense? He's just spent considerable time and (probably) money scheming to break her out only to kill her just when he succeeded?

And even if he did want to kill her (the rest of that movie made no sense so why not), keeping her in that helicopter was the easiest way to do it, rather than throwing her out...

From what I read, the studio sent it back to editing to make it a blockbuster, and ended up garbling it.

I have heard guys say they liked SS becuause there the Joker wasn't abusive. I was wondering what movie did they watch, as for me the fact that he tortured her enough to make her crazy was pretty much a neon sign that the relationship WAS abusive.

Ditto.

'I'm not going to kill you, I'm just going to hurt you really, really bad.' and the 'Would you die for me...no, wait...would you live for me?' are very abusive scenes.

It's a different kind of abusive than in the comics (he's possessive, not trying to get rid of her), but it's still abusive.
