Just like Captain America: Civil War before it, the new trailer for Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice debuted on Jimmy Kimmel Live this past Wednesday. According to ListenFirst Media (via Variety), the new look at the Zack Snyder helmed release received 23.2 million views durings its first 24 hours on YouTube and Facebook, a slight dip from the 30+ million views both the teaser and Comic-Con trailer received. Here's where things get interesting though. Despite the fact that they counted views from more than just YouTube and Facebook, the Captain America: Civil War trailer actually received 61 million views durings its first 24 hours; that's quite the gap! Of course, it's to be expected that the third trailer for Batman v Superman would generate less views, and it has to be noted that the trailer for Civil War was our very first look at the movie. Still, many of you argued right here on CBM that the Batman v Superman trailer would crush Civil War, and it's clear now...
MARVEL WINS!
Calm down, I'm only joking. The real battle here will actually come at the box office next year!
