That would've been perfect. Nothing against Viola Davis, though - she's terrific and will do a great job, I'm sure. Casting in this movie is quite good overall.

The trailer was pretty decent? A little... dourer than I expected, weirdly enough? At times, anyway. I mean, it's about a team of supervillains being used by the government, but it's one of those movies I hope will be a lot of fun and not take itself too seriously. This DC Cinematic Universe desperately needs some fun, and that kinda-deranged, violent kind would be perfect here. Really hoping they keep the Hot Topic Angst to a minimum. But it's got potential and I'm still pretty excited to see it.

Still think this version of the Joker looks stupid as hell, but hopefully the performance makes it work?

Today we will release the same footage that has been illegally circulating on the web, in the form it was created and high quality with which it was intended to be enjoyed. We regret this decision as it was our intention to keep the footage as a unique experience for the Comic Con crowd, but we cannot continue to allow the film to be represented by the poor quality of the pirated footage stolen from our presentation.”

WB is obviously trying to pump up the "controversy" here, IMO. Trailers are recorded at Comic-Con all the time, and it almost always helps the movie. This is footage engineered to get people excited, and it did the job. Their official release has nabbed 11 million views since yesterday. The studios fully understand how it works - the footage is officially "exclusive", but if it gets leaked, they have a free window to release it to everyone. They'll make a big stink about how disappointed they are, but this is the best possible result for them and they know that.
