Justice League: 13 Complaints Everyone Will (Probably) Have

3. The Trailers Gave Too Much Away

Batman v Superman's marketing campaign was widely criticised for giving too much away, namely the arrivals of Doomsday and Wonder Woman, which could've been shocking and exciting reveals but had instead been shoved down audience's throats for several months prior.

Now, at present, Justice League's marketing has actually been pretty restrained when it comes to the big beats: there's been virtually no footage of Steppenwolf battling with the League, nor a clear glimpse of Superman or, assuming he's even in it, Green Lantern.

However, there are still roughly 6 weeks to go until the film hits screens, and it would be pretty typical of Warner Bros. to blow their final marketing push by giving the money shots away for free at the last minute.

Honestly, the best thing Warner could do is not release anymore trailers at all, but given the fact that they almost certainly will, they should keep Steppenwolf, Superman and any other surprises well under wraps.

But they probably won't, and people will be rightly complaining about it from the moment the final trailer hits.
