FLASH! FLASH! FLASH! I'd wear a costume to a movie release for the first time in my life. OH GOD. What if they try and cast Ryan Reynolds as the Flash?!?! I am now crapping my pants... If they ruin Flash... Sheldon Cooper will be disappoint. Yes Yes Yes!!! Such high expectations for my favorite super hero <3
I wore my Iron Man T-shirt to the Avengers, and I will show up to The Justice League in my Flash shirt.
Seriously, I'm kind of excited, as long as they don't ruin the casting and make the costumes look good they have PLENTY of material to make a great Justice League movie.
Also, @Lightwip
+ Show Spoiler +You could also use supervillains that are so strong that no one but Superman would be able to fight them, leaving the rest of the Justice League without any real purpose.
Example: Darkseid
I had this same worry with the Avengers, but the way they had it pan out went really well, the only issue is that it might be harder to choreograph hero v hero fight scenes into this one... well, there are ways to make the heroes each relevant compared to each other.
Though I ALWAYS worry about Superman, because hes way too fucking perfect and its really easy for people to just ask why the rest of them so much as exist.

A good movie with Ryan Reynolds is an oxymoron. Hes been in great movies such as "The Green Lantern", "Blade Trinity" and Definitely Maybe. /Sarcasm. Also he's deadpool too. Whats next Robert Downey jr as the Martian?
Hey, I liked Definitely Maybe...>_>

blade trinity is literally my favorite movie ever

Not...excited at all.
I mean if it was done right....which well. I don't know.

They have been talking about this movie for years and they always up end shelving the project or put on hold. Christopher Nolan himself said that his Batman universe will not fit in with the rest of the DC universe because of the realism approach he has done. However, going off of the OP, it sounds like they really want to make The Justice League similar to Nolan's Batman trilogy. It will be interesting how this will work since the new Superman movie (The Man of Steel) is being produced by Nolan.

Freaking sick if this actually gets made, have to wait about 2-3 years I suppose :\

Ryan Reynolds isn't a bad actor, he just has a terrible habit of picking movies that end up being completely screwed.
It wasn't his fault that Green Lantern sucked. That movie/script was bounced around so much that it was doomed to be a total clusterfuck no matter what he did. He can do a serious role, it's just that any movie where he has done so has bombed for various other reasons. His performance in "Buried" was almost universally praised - only nobody saw that movie because it was limited release and advertised like shit.
To be fair, he really does excel at the wise-cracking comedic character. He would have been a fucking fantastic Deadpool and his stint as Weapon X was destroyed by the fact that they took away his ability to speak and thus Reynold's charm.
The guy can act - he just needs a better agent and/or roles.

I guess how the execs feel about this film with depends mainly on how well The Man of Steel does. Sure they say there's a script, but it needs to go through a ton of people before money's on the table.

With the type of cast you have in TJL, they'd probalby be fighting space wizards or something. So you dont necessarily need kryptonite. I think. I don't really know my comic book shit too well. You could also use supervillains that are so strong that no one but Superman would be able to fight them, leaving the rest of the Justice League without any real purpose. Example: Darkseid
or they could make a movie based on the Kingdom Come series. They are sooo good.

Superman could just get injured badly early on, and his power reduced. Otherwise, this movie would be crap.
|
I've watched many cartoon versions of JL and JLU. I don't think live action is a good idea.
|
DC has always produced some amazing animated shows and animated movies. The new Young Justice is quite good and gets better with every episode, I hopethey can translate their animated success to the big screen.
The DC Universe MMO opening caught my attention when I first saw it. I hope the movie will have the same impact or better, + Show Spoiler +the scene where Deathstroke beats the crap out of Batman and Joker decides nobody kills the bat but him made me jizz my pants.
|
Green Lnatern will bomb this movie. It was such an abomination that DC or Warner Bros should just drop the character of make another one before Justice League with a different approach altogether, or the movie will be laughable.
|
Name two movies whose lores, as they stand now, could be blended together to make a JL movie.
Marvel knew that Iron man, Hulk, Thor, and C.America would tie into a homogenous Avengers movie - that's why it turned ot to be such a fucking success.
DC has no chance at this. None of the movies except maybe Green Lantern have an established backstory with room for more superheroes. Superman? no. Batman? Too realistic. Batman reboot? Fuck you DC. Seriously, fuck you. Wonder Woman, Flash, Aquaman (I saw a trailer for this once, looked shitty), Green Arrow, blah blah blah blah so many heroes that warrant their own movies and yet talk of a JL movie.
I don't know why this made me so angry, but it did. DC just has no chance.

And then we'd still have moviegoers whine and moan about how powerless Batman and Green Arrow are actually members of the JLA after watching it.

Agreed. I think Reynolds would have been a great Hal Jordan. Besides Reynolds, Mark Strong saved the movie for me. I thought he was a great Sinestro. All I know is that they're still serious about a sequel... They really need help if they plan on going through with that.

Agreed, but I think the casual movie goer will think he is a wannabe/rip off of Thanos. I think that because Thanos was shown at the end of The Avengers and the two characters are pretty similar in terms of the end boss. The same thing goes if they bring in Green Arrow for a Justice League movie.

I thought Superman/Batman: Apocalypse was a good animated movie featuring Darkseid.
Edit: Darkseid as the first villain would be a bit too much though.

Dark undertones and DC comics go hand-in-hand. The problem is, ludicrous and outrageously goofy ideas are often also present in the exact same stories. Take for example, Final Crisis. Where Darkseid and the evil gods have all died, but found a way to invade the minds of people and heroes on Earth. So the Question jumps around different Universes to pick up heroes for help including, I shit you not, a black President of the United States who's also the secret identity of his universe's Superman. So yeah, grimdark but also really silly.
