The bulging WTF files- hey, that's what I call my pants!

You hangin' with some OTHER Belial?

And yet, I get the impression that the new, "lighter" trailer was part of their attempt to back away from "Do You Bleed? YOU WILL!" and try to convince everyone "look, it's not THAT different from those Marvel movies".
The thing is, adding humor and a "lighter touch" isn't going to work when your movie is directed by

Short answer: if BVS bombs, it will DEFINITELY be followed down the tubes by SUICIDE SQUAD, and most probably followed by WONDER WOMAN.
Their only logical option would be to start pulling the plug on the DC movies. (it won't take much to talk them out of an Aquaman movie, and they'd need even LESS convincing to

And they announced that the day the first episode of THE FLASH aired, which was, as Steven Amell pointed out, a helluva way to cut the legs out from under the guy playing him on TV.

A career full of magnificent oddities: from co-hosting WEEKEND a mix of serious journalism and satire that alternated it's time slot with a fledgling comedy show called NBC'S SATURDAY NIGHT (whatever happened to that?), to OUR WORLD, a sacrificial goat ABC threw up against THE COSBY SHOW (but with a great premise: it

A Ron Burgundy/ George W. Bush buddy caper flick.

um… not really, no.

STAR WARS? ah, that's that stuff my DAD watches.

It might be better to make a movie about new media and maybe just have Farrell make a cameo in old age makeup (or maybe a larger role as a new character)

They're kind of like Jonah Hex, really: fought for their heritage, not for the cause.
