Viral Marketing is nothing new. It's a very creative way to advertise a film, television show, book, whatever. I can recall getting wrapped up in the tangled puzzle that was the Cloverfield viral marketing leading up to it's mysterious premiere in theaters. Not much was known about the film, aside from it's release date shown in teasers before screenings of Transformers. When you would search for the release date, the game would begin and it was kind of fun to get involved in a way that made you feel like you were part of the story. I always thought it would've been a cool way to market Man of Steel, by having the videos that Zod transmitted to Earth when they first arrived to serve as mysterious promos for the upcoming film. Have a little fun with his invasion of Earth.

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice Trailer!
Zack Snyder announced a few days ago that the trailer for Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice would be released in select IMAX theaters on Monday. In less than 24 hours someone leaked some horrible quality footage of that trailer. Many sites reported on, giving details of what was in the trailer. I'm not sure if this is why Snyder would then release the trailer early...but who cares! Here it is in full HD quality!

CBS Has Found Their Supergirl!
'Suicide Squad' To Begin Production in Toronto
The film that will follow Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice in the newly created DC Cinematic Universe is not a Batman solo film, not a Wonder Woman solo film, its not even an Aquaman solo film. No, the first film we'll get after the fallout of Batman v Superman is David Ayer's Suicide Squad. Some may balk at the confidence in such a move when building such a large cinematic universe, but not me. I'm excited to see Task Force X on the big screen and I think it'll do very well if treated in the right way. I love Harley Quinn, and her merry band of villains doing Amanda Waller's dirty work under threat of imminent death.

First Look At The New Batmobile
First Look at Wonder Woman!
Well...DC/Warner Bros started off Day 3 of SDCC with a bang. They brought out Zack Snyder and he debuted a teaser trailer for Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, showing a rainy Gotham rooftop and Batman standing atop wearing a very Frank Miller-y armor suit. He pulls a tarp off of a Bat Signal that illuminates in the sky revealing a very angry Superman with red eyes. We also got a great glimpse at Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman and I have to say...my doubts have receded a bit. Take a look.
