Nerd News | Suicide Squad trailer and Wonder Woman footage

Both of these videos were actually released last week, but in case you missed them:

As much as I rag on DC movies (#Marvel4Lyfe), I'm really impressed with this Suicide Squad trailer. It looks so much more like a cohesive movie than the first trailer made it seem (i.e., less Will Smith being, well, Will Smith).

And this Wonder Woman footage looks (somewhat surprisingly) awesome. I love that it's a historical movie, rather than a direct spin-off of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.¹ Wondy deserves some time on her own, rather than just being a secondary character used for lame jokes.

Also of note:

• Star Wars: Episode VIII has been pushed to December 2017 ... thanks to a new Pirates of the Caribbean movie.² As much as I enjoy Captain Jack Sparrow, what I really need is more Rey/Finn/Poe fabulousness.
• Did you see SNL's Undercover Boss with Kylo Ren? Here are some outtakes. 
• Conspiracy theorists the world over rejoice: New (scientifically supported) evidence shows that there might be a ninth planet at the edge of our solar system.
• The eighth movie in the Fast & Furious franchise has a title (Fast 8) and a location (New York City).³
• STEVEN MOFFAT IS LEAVING DOCTOR WHO.

¹This movie's a lost cause, however.
²Thanks, Colt!
³Thanks, Emily!
