Wasn't that Superman Vs Batman movie that director Wolfgang Petersen was supposed to direct ?

Not that one. God no, not that one. They reported that it would be a movie about either, whether Bale would come back, an established Superman mentoring a fresh Batman or an established Batman (Bale) mentoring a fresh Superman. Either way it would be Cavill as Superman.

So, a VS-movie or a team-up? Or both?

According to the article, a team-up.

Interesting, that could work, I prefer that Superman be older than Batman.

That could happen if Batman reboot / restart is coming some years after MOS.

The Avengers is revitalizing this forum

Ok then. I'd rather want a JL-movie, but I can see that causing the ultimate Marvel VS DC clashes.
They should make that into the ultimate VS-movie. Or not.

Can anyone imagine in 10 years we get DC vs Marvel epic cross over!
Now that would be ambitious, 300 mill opening.

Yep, each member more or less has a counterpart opponent. Superman VS HULK, Batman VS Ironman and so on.

@HighFivingMF

After seeing what The Avengers pulled in I think DC/WB wants a team up now more than ever. Robinov is a big fan of getting Batman and Superman together, and considering how Green Lantern went at the box office, I think their safest bets would be Superman and Batman.

That is seriously where we are heading, I was talking to FilmNerdJamie about that on the phone a couple months ago.

I think first you might see an inter-studio film using Marvel characters where they split costs ie Spider-Man or Wolverine with the Avengers. There is no doubt in my mind that you're going to see the two comic book companies intertwine at some point on screen.

OK that sounds awesome.

 

[Rust]

That sounds lame. What a mess that would be. Oy vey...

 

[Showtime]

My opinion is that is the next step. A lot of people were saying team up movies like Justice League and Avengers would be a mess, turned out pretty good.

 

[Rust]

But are we talking about Avengers VS Justice League or just Marvel-characters VS DC-characters then?

The intermingling of characters from both companies, no necessarily against each other, working with each other.

Spoiler

Although a good chunk of Avengers was heroes fighting other heroes.

 

[Wheels]

I don't know, as jaded as I can be, I'm open to these crossover concepts now. Avengers was better than I ever thought it could be.

 

[Showtime]

I like Avengers much more than I thought I would, but it wasn't without issues. The whole "perfect movie" argument is lost on me. A lot of issues. GREAT popcorn flick though.

Ok. I dont think it's needed to intermingle the characters since both companies have just as great potential within their own roster. Ok, seing HULK team up with Superman WOULD be great, so yes. No.

 

[Wheels]

Well, I thought Avengers would be an absolute mess, but everything seemed to balance out pretty well.

 

[Marvin]

Before any of that though I would very much like to see batman's character and prowess better represented on screen. That really is the only way he would work in any shared universe film, otherwise I'd honestly are see Lucius Fox on the team than Bale.

 

[Ita-KalEl]

So a Superman/Batman with Batman rebooted?

 

[Project862006]

i think superman/batman film would be preferable than justice leauge

superman and batman are such huge iconic characters that they will overshadow guys like gl,flash and ww

 

[Ita-KalEl]

Or a Trinity (Superman/Batman/Wonder Woman) movie
