if you check the Warner brothers youtube page, you'll discover that the suicide squad trailer now has a few hundred thousand more views than batman vs superman (both have over 34 million).

i think this is pretty incredible. batman and superman are two of the most well known fictional characters of all time, and then we have a movie with a title and characters that most people aren't familiar with, which has now surpassed BvS in total views.

but here's what makes this even more stunning: the suicide squad trailer was released a full two days after the BvS trailer, yet here we are, about 1 week later, and suicide squad has more views.

is the joker a bigger character than batman or superman? it looks like the answer to that is starting to become a bit clearer.

Suicide Squad's trailer is the best for a superhero movie since Watchmen. It's awesome.

I'm more interested in SS than I am BvS. It looks different, and Ayer has came out saying his film will have minimal CGI and is being filmed with real sets and props. I think it'll be a nice contrast to Snyder's CGI fest. I'm growing tired of all the huge battles, explosions, and excessive CGI.

People want to see the joker.

You have teen emo chicks tattooing the joker on themselves these days.

So you don't need to watch trailer to figure out who these guys are.

This is an interesting argument. I would say that the Joker is definitely a bigger cinematic draw than Superman right now. Batman? Probabably, as well. People love them some Joker.

I just looked and BvS has one with 44 million views. You're talking about the Comic-Con trailers.

I've never read comics or am really familiar with anyone other than batman and superman. Are the suicide squad pardoned villains? Are they against the joker in this? Also is Deadpool the same universe? Thanks

Superman doesn't interest me at all. I'd rather watch anything that the Joker is in than anything Superman is in.

I don't really think it's about one character. 90% of the girls I know, especially the freaky ones, are obsessed with Harley Quinn. 2 have even changed their Facebook names to ones that are plays on her name.

I think the premise for this thread is flawed. The SS Comic-Con trailer is the premier of any footage for the film, whereas the BvS Comic-Con trailer is following up a teaser from months ago. Both films are highly anticipated, but they are not on the same timeline in terms of trailers.

If the first BvS trailer was released at the same time as SS, I'm sure it would have more views.
