I was impressed with this too, but it seems a lesson learned too late. I'm not sure how they will promote this in this current landscape but Blue Beetle is a C-List character at best (compared to the heavy hitters and the more well know characters out there). I don't see how this movie stands out when even people here don't seem to want it.
Marvel did/do know how to hype their characters, no matter how much people might dislike them, they do have a formula. But DC/Warner seem to look at that formula and say, "Nope!". When they can't even combine Shazam! and Black Adam, you know something is wrong - and Marvel, sat what you will about D-Listers like Agatha Harkness and Echo (ugh!), at least they were setup!
Oh well, we'll see.

lololol seems like we have a few that know nothing about comics, meaning read some. the org. blue beetle was a white guy name todd. lol that where wb failed. btw, todd died. that s the problem of hollywood. even they don t know jack about comics. kevin foggies down fall and wb, the witcher and star wars were all good. but clowns made them bad and change it all.

That's not quite right - check Wikipedia Blue Beetle it will give you a better history:
1) Blue Beetle Dan Garnett (1940's) -Fox comics and then Charlton comcs - the original Blue Beetle - looks nothing like the modern one - a classic pulp hero with some powers and/or limited use of the scarab device the current Blue Beetle uses. He was a white guy.
2) Blue Beetle Ted Kord (1960's)- Charlton and then DC comics - they revamped him, kind of like how DC revamped Flash and Green Lantern - Ted Kord was basically an adventurer - no powers and mostly a skilled/gadget Batman type (more like the 1960's Batman). This Blue Beetle is mostly famous for joining the humorous version of the Justice League from the 80s/90s and being shot by Maxwell Lord. He was a white guy.
3) Blue Beetle - Jamie Reyes (2006 - Current) - DC created him to replace Ted Kord. He's a Hispanic replacement character for the originally white Blue Beetles, but he's FUNDEMENTALLY different that the originals and presents more like a Spider-man/Iron Man type of character.
Technically, Jaime's only link to them is the name. And to be honest, he's possibly the most interesting version. Dan was a generic pulp super-herp who didn't last past the 60's and while Ted did last longer he's never risen above C-List character. I don't think he's ever been in a movie or TV show (maybe Justice League Unlimited?), butI doubt they ever would have bothered.
Suffice to say, to say "he's a white guy" or "Dan/Ted were first" is like saying Jay Garrick is the first Flash. Jay is, but Barry Allen (or even Wally West) is the modern and far more recognized one.
That said, Blue Beetle is a c-List character as a whole - I only know this stuff cause I'm an old comic nerd. Very few people otherwise, would know, much less give a sh!t about any of this. Still, Jaime is the one that is most likely to succeed of the three.
I still think this move will fail though, unless it pulls off something special.
