As you can see below, a Photoshopped poster has started doing the rounds in China featuring the Justice League alongside Thor's decapitated head, Deadpool skewered on Aquaman's trident, Wonder Woman stabbing Wolverine through the chest, the Flash standing on Captain America's head, and various torn off limbs belonging to Iron Man. Needless to say, this poster is not officially released! 

Despite that, it's being displayed in a number of Chinese theaters and is displayed on both video hosting site iQiyi and an online ticketing app for China's biggest theater chain, Wanda Cinema. 


Warner Bros. clearly isn't behind this marketing ploy and they probably won't be happy to learn it's being passed around as being official. How so many companies were suckered in by this is hard to say but it clearly boils down to them being somewhat naive in regards to what sort of movie Justice League is! Plus, they probably don't realise The Avengers actually killed the League at the box office...

@Spock0Clock - Read the entire article. You don't actually believe WB sanctioned such a campaign, do you?

@Stealthduck - I didn't, actually. If I thought this was an official marketing strategy, I would have had a lot more and pointed things to say about it.

As it is, it's just a weird and ugly reflection on... something. I dunno. Chinese DCEU fans? A few theaters trying to attract unsuspecting passersby with the prospect of a super-bloodbath? Whoever made it, it's icky, but I didn't think WB had anything to do with it, any more than Feige pays for Chris Evans to laugh at Ben Affleck in gifs.

(But he does pay me. I get 30 dollars per meme.)

@Spock0Clock - At least those gifs are funny. Take the money. I'm more disturbed by the fact that someone in management thought these were real.
Only passed through China for a short time, it seemed either all or nothing, completely conservative or over the top weird.

@Spock0Clock - Leave it to the Chinese market to use downloaded posters instead of the approved posters.

Are you all stupid enough to think it was actually Warner Bros who made this? I wasn’t the biggest fan of Justice League but my god you all troll DC any chance you get
