I’ve seen several mentions today of a supposed teaser trailer for the long-delayed Flash movie — the one that, just a few days ago, we were told had no momentum.
Get the Big Picture has the clip, supposedly recorded on a cell phone during a Watchmen screening, and analyzes why it’s probably not the real deal, but a fan creation. Among other things, the story about how the recording was made just doesn’t add up.
I haven’t watched it with sound yet, but I’m inclined to agree.
Update: Thanks to Brandan, I’ve found a similar post at Slashfilm. No one knows who did make it so far, but it’s obviously not official.
I hope it’s not real. That looks far too intense and angsty for a Flash movie. The Flash needs to be fun!

Its not real. Slashfilm.com debunked this yesterday or the day before. There was no Flash trailer shown before the Watchemn screening.
But yes…It looks good. How I wish it were true.

Obviously a fake, but the imagery for the running was inspired. Gives me hope for a real movie eventually.
