The Flash Is the Fastest Fake Movie Trailer Alive
Don’t be getting your hopes here?this Flash movie trailer is entirely fan-made, despite the cunning use of getting someone to play it in a real movie theater, then recording it second-hand. As /Film points out, the Flash movie is stuck in the special level of Warner Bros. development hell where DC movies suffer interminably. Also, despite the claim that the trailer aired before one of the special Watchmen screenings, there have been no reports from the scores of nerds who broke their NDAs mentioning a Flash trailer. Last but not least, while there are some nice effects in there, the trailer kind of sucks. Actually, I think it’s footage from the old ’80s Flash TV show?or if it’s not, it certainly could be (check out that chick’s hair).
