๐Ÿค”Supposed to be' can be used to mean 'it is said/believed'.

๐Ÿ‘‰The new James Bond movie is supposed to be excellent.
๐Ÿ‘‰He is supposed to have been rude to Mark but I don't believe it.
๐Ÿ‘‰It is supposed to be the best restaurant in town.

๐Ÿค”'Supposed to be' can also be used to talk about what is arranged, intended or expected. It is a bit like 'should'.

๐Ÿ‘‰I'm supposed to get to work by 8.
๐Ÿ‘‰John is supposed to turn off all the lights when he leaves.
๐Ÿ‘‰I'm supposed to pay my rent on the first of the month.
๐Ÿ‘‰It's not supposed to be here.
๐Ÿ‘‰Often there is a suggestion that the action 'supposed to' happen does not actually happen.
๐Ÿ‘‰I'm supposed to be there before 8 but I'm often late.
๐Ÿ‘‰You were supposed to phone me.
๐Ÿ‘‰I'm supposed to be getting on a plane to Tokyo at this very minute.

๐Ÿ‘‰You're not supposed to smoke in here.
๐Ÿ‘‰I'm not supposed to tell you.
๐Ÿ‘‰We're not supposed to use the Internet for personal reasons at work.

๐Ÿค”'Suppose' can also be used as a conjunction to mean 'what if'. Notice that the verb which follows it is sometimes, but not always, put 'more in the past'.

๐Ÿ‘‰Suppose we take the earlier train to Munich? It would give us more time there.
๐Ÿ‘‰Suppose we took the plane instead? ๐Ÿ‘‰That would give us even more time.
๐Ÿ‘‰There's nobody in reception to let our visitors in. Suppose I sit there until somebody comes?
๐Ÿ‘‰I'm going to ask him for a pay increase. ~ Suppose he said 'no'? What would you do?
