I was just reading the front page about the Superman movie and how Warners is trying to "figure it out." Warner's problem is they have the worst case of "analysis paralysis" I have ever seen. They think crap to DEATH! No wonder batfans get so nuts over TDK and have made it such a hit...they have NOTHING ELSE! And I'd dare say they WON'T have either. Watchmen will be a hit but it's a deadend with not much chance of a sequel. If Nolan DOES make a third batfilm (doubtful) it will most likely be his last. Other than that what else is there? The sure-to-be-a disaster JLA film with "hot young actors" in all the leads? *groan* As someone else said, we've had so many false starts on these characters it isn't funny. Warner is run by suits who want to exert too much control over these films without even understanding the characters. They want to have their own input just to justify their own existence rather than using the formula Marvel has SHOWN works and that is staying true to the character. All the hard work's been done! Stop trying to figure out how to change it (ala Superman Returns) and just write a great story, hire great actors and directors, and get it done! Probably too much to hope for. *sigh* so much potential for films like GL, Flash, Wonder Woman. Oh well...
My 2 cents.
) Marvel is slowing getting all their rights back by the way. The only biggie they don't have back yet is Spidey from sony they did and extension after the first movie went large. But they won't be getting it agian.
