Not even Justice League reached near that amount, and Suicide Squad was considered a worse movie:

This.

It was also pretty separate from the BvS stink and stunk on its own merits.

Probably because everyone assumed that DC wouldn't churn out a shit movie after the Batman v. Superman debacle. Most people smartened up and didn't bother with JL after two garbage movies from DC.

Is it still a solo movie? I thought that either became Gotham City Sirens, Suicide Squad 2, or Joker and Harley Quinn.

People were excited to see the villains get the spot light for once I guess. Plus they sold the movie on the Joker character. It would have been a better movie with a better plot. After they assembled the team it got kind of wonky.

Do people still actually want to see things with him in it? He's an ok actor at best, I can never tell what's attractive in men-is he that good looking or is he just trading on nostalgia for Fresh Prince and Bad Boys?

It was a terrible movie though it was more cost effective than justice league for the amount of suck per $.

Yeah, they formed a team to fight possible superman level meta human go bad. Their choice? Fucking captain kangaroo who can throw a boomerang, Crazy girl with no super powers of any kind, marks man who does nothing impressive after all, fire guy who is strong but still pretty low tier and which refuses to fight, Kroc guy who is very pathetic compared to comics or Arkham Asylum, one high level soldier and witch who in the end wasn't impressive at all, and neither was her brother who got killed by a fucking bomb that didn't even level the building.

The villain was more powerful, and the team was actually strong i would have liked that movie or at least called it decent.

Remember, fanboys were going gaga over it and hyping it through the roof after the disaster that was BvS. "It's so colorful, Joker looks great, it looks like an awesome action flick". Plus Batman was in the trailers. It had a huge, bigger than average drop off after opening weekend. It made more in the foreign market because Chinese people eat up our blockbusters no matter how shit they are. See Transformers and the Fast and the Furious franchises.

The concept has great potential. It had a great cast and a great look.
The problem was entirely one of execution: the movie wasn't sure what it wanted to be about or even who it wanted to be about. It spent a lot of screen time with a character(the Joker) who was extraneous to the plot. Watching the fighting scenes was like watching some one play a cheap Dynasty Warriors knock-off. The movie stopped to tediously introduce us to every member of the squad one by one, and then introduced them to us again as if it hadn't done so already.
There were lots of rumors of re-shoots and trouble in production sparked by the negative critical reaction to Batman vs. Superman, and it shows. As a result, the movie is hopelessly muddled. There's probably a good story in there somewhere, but it asphyxiated early in the movie's production.
