Why isn’t Justice League’s marketing focusing on all the heroes?

When it comes to the Justice League, we love all of the superheroes. So why isn’t the marketing team focusing on all of them?

Justice League is coming sooner rather than later. The movie we’ve all been waiting for since the release of Wonder Woman is a little over a month away and there is still a lot we don’t know about it. For instance, we haven’t seen too much of Cyborg, Aquaman or the Flash.

In a new featurette produced by AT&T, we see a weird combination of scenes from the film as well as behind the scene interviews with the cast, which I guess is fine?

Here’s my problem with the marketing so far for Justice League: it isn’t centered on the heroes as much as cool new songs and the gadgets.

Give me a video of Barry Allen or just a twenty second clip of Aquaman underwater. It doesn’t have to be a big ordeal, just something fun. And the fact that the movie is already gearing more towards Wonder Woman is a good sign.

I like this group of superheroes for its membership. I’ve always wanted to be a part of the Justice League, so for this marketing strategy to be not really focused on the individual heroes is weird and honestly, disappointing.

So is Justice League going to be any good? I have absolutely no clue. I want it to be. Wonder Woman single-handedly saved the DC Extended Universe and while she was the best part of Batman V. Superman: Dawn of Justice, I don’t know if she can carry the entire the entire League on her back and shield.

Justice League hits theaters on Nov. 17. Check back here on Culturess for more news and a review once the movie comes out. Because really, I’m going to see it plenty of times for Diana Prince alone. And it helps that Arthur Curry is pretty badass.
