Pretty funny. That should go in the Superman vs. Batman thread.

Explosions, explosions, explosions!!!
Even when the JL headquarters is created at the end, it explodes!

Much screaming for your lives, sounds of fighting and impacts! Then quick cut to a fight!

A great beach-going song and then Martian Manhunter crashing his ship somewhere randomly. :o

Pre Opening Credits:

International Space Station. A shadowy, cloaked monster figure, Despero, taking over the space station, it's crew and the space shuttle docked there, some struggle, some broken metal, some death and a free ride to the surface seeking "the Martian."

Opening Credits

News Reporter (Tawny Young? Cat Grant? Snapper Carr? Whoever) reporting on happenings around the world, including saves by Superman, Flash and GL, UN goings on with Diana, the Space Shuttle returning early and the premise for the emotional storyline of the movie.

Rest of movie goes from there.

Well, when I was writing a treatment for a JLA movie, my opening was Clark Kent coming to Gotham City to get Bruce Wayne.

Clark explains that he has formed a team of the best heroes known to the world, and Batman is the completion of the group. Bruce tell him that he's crazy and he should go back to Krypton! (yes.....this is a joke seeing as Krypton was destroyed) Clark eventually convinces Bruce to join when an unidentified villain (think Optimus and Megatron combined) begins to cause terror all over the world.


^^^It ain't great, but that's how I had it.

I think it should open w/a look at whatever threat (probably an alien invasion) prompts the JLA to band together in the first place. Kinda like the ships in Independence Day. Cut from that to Clark Kent in the newsroom. Then to Bruce Wayne at a board meeting. Then to Diana brooding in her little island paradise. Go from there.
