10 Best 2017 Movie Trailers

4. The LEGO Batman Movie

Lego Batman Movie
Warner Bros.

Release Date: February 10, 2017

The Trailer: The LEGO Batman Movie's had a bucketload of trailers, but its Comic-Con one is still the best.

Playing more like a series of skits stitched together than a cohesive trailer, it's silly, albeit amusing ("LIFE DOESN'T GIVE YOU SEATBELTS!"), and it looks as though Batman's irreverent mannerisms from The LEGO Movie have been dialled up to 11. Count us in.

The Movie: Batman was The Lego Movie's standout character so it's not surprising to see him spin off, though it's unclear where the two movies connect together (if they even connect at all).

In a world where most comic-book movies take themselves super-seriously, it's refreshing to see one that pokes fun at all that without devolving into outright parody.

The Joker will be making an appearance too, alongside various other members of the Justice League, in a story about Bruce struggling to raise a boy he's unwittingly adopted. Incidentally, The LEGO Batman Movie releases on the same day as Fifty Shades Darker, another movie about a conflicted billionaire.

Such a hard viewing choice to make...
