This ‘Justice League’ TV Spot Is Really, Really Weird By Chris Evangelista/Oct. 30, 2017 1:00 pm EST If you thought the previous DCEU films were too dark, you’re in luck: there’s a new goofy Justice League TV spot that’s brimming with silliness! Ezra Miller’s Flash is front and center here, and somehow Batman’s voice has gotten even worse.
