"Warner Bros. Pictures and our anti-piracy team have worked tirelessly over the last 48 hours to contain the Suicide Squad footage that was pirated from Hall H on Saturday. We have been unable to achieve that goal. Today we will release the same footage that has been illegally circulating on the web, in the form it was created and high quality with which it was intended to be enjoyed. We regret this decision as it was our intention to keep the footage as a unique experience for the Comic Con crowd, but we cannot continue to allow the film to be represented by the poor quality of the pirated footage stolen from our presentation."
- Sue Kroll, President Worldwide Marketing and International Distribution, Warner Bros. Pictures

Dumb people always ruin it for the rest of us. Oh well. Looks pretty slick. {nm} masonacj Jul 13, 13:39

Actually, dumb people made it better for the rest of us because we get to see the footage. {nm} Biff68 Jul 13, 16:08

I thought it was leaked before the Comic Con people had seen it. Misread it at first. {nm} masonacj Jul 14, 06:01

I think that Variety article probably was the final nail in the coffin as far as them trying to hold it any longer {nm} notfabio Jul 13, 13:44

so much BS islander Jul 13, 14:32

you are right but you want to be able to control how your marketing looks and is being used. they likely were just drumming up press Moviesnob Jul 13, 14:37

If only someone had told them about smartphones that can record and upload video! {nm} RogerMore Jul 13, 15:14

ROFL!!! {nm} Chateau_du_Mal_Voisin Jul 13, 15:22

And the 7000 in Hall H is jut 5% of all Comic-Con attendees willing to sleep overnight with ****roaches. Antibody Jul 13, 16:23

haha - ****roaches got filtered {nm} Moviesnob Jul 13, 17:01

Almost 13 months before release, is that a record? {nm} MattW Jul 13, 14:19

No, WB showed a SUPE2 teaser at the 2014 SDCC. {nm} Antibody Jul 13, 14:39

I think the ALIEN 3 teaser trailer (when it was going to be set on Earth) was that far out? But for this amount of footage, it probably is. {nm} notfabio Jul 13, 14:39

The Tron Legacy teaser was shown at 2008 SDCC, almost 2.5 years before release {nm} lapuckfan Jul 13, 15:43

And TRON2 used the Comic-Con audience for the crowd sounds in the Gaming Grid. {nm} DTravel Jul 13, 17:52

if you never make a sex tape then you never have to worry about it being posted online {nm} RazorHawk Jul 13, 15:51

So... this is really about ethics in gaming journalism? {nm} tawdryhepburn Jul 13, 18:57

Ethics in gaming journalism died years ago. {nm} DTravel Jul 14, 17:29
