2. The Titans Trailer

Warner Bros.

The live-action take on Teen Titans, simply titled Titans, is the centrepiece of DC's new streaming service, and there was plenty of anticipation for the series ahead of its first trailer being released.

All of which was killed in approximately 1m 51s.

Robin is out there murdering people and trying to be edgy by saying "f**k Batman", and the whole thing has been given a decidedly 'gritty' tone, which feels more like the kind of superhero stories that came out in the wake of The Dark Knight's success, rather than the kind of thing DC should be making now. The series could prove us wrong, but the trailer looks to have misjudged things completely.
