7) The Tone is Much Different
As mentioned above, the main aim of this trailer is to show people that Justice League will be fundamentally a whole lot more fun than either BvS or Man of Steel. After the success of the marketing campaign for Suicide Squad, this trailer follows suit by stuffing in the one liners and quips and laying a rock song over the top – on this occasion, “Icky Thump” by The White Stripes.
Yes, really, there are jokes! Chiefly, the humour comes from Batman and Flash’s meeting scene, but it seems that Bruce and Diana have also got into the quipping game since the end of BvS – as they share banter in the Batcave in one sequence.
Of course, these might be all of the funny scenes in the film stitched together to make a light-hearted trailer, but something tells us that WB and DC will ensure that the entire movie has a breezier tone to it.
