IESB: Welling out of the running for JLA Superman

[Cmill216]

That's ridiculous reasoning. Just because they didn't say it literally does not mean it's not their Justice League.

And because Clark encountered a young Oliver Queen and his gang, that thereby means his Superman (years later) can't be associated with a real Justice League with Batman, Wonder Woman, and the lot?

How would Tom Welling's Superman serve on the JL in Smallville with Bart/Impulse to then serve with Bart's grandfather Barry before Barry even has children to have Bart?

You lost me.

Seems to me you're trying to use continuities that have never been established in any movie-verse or TV-verse, nor do we even know if said continuities will ever be established.

That invisible string is called a contract.

And if the movie division wanted Tom Welling and his "contract", they could get him. They've displayed countless times their power over the television division.

You asked a question, and you gave an answer that was wrong.

No. It's your opinion that it's wrong. Again, where's the fact?

 

[Jake Cassidy]

Majik. I'm just curious. If Tom Welling were to be Superman in JL, would that stop you from seeing it? Remember, I said 'IF'.

 

[Majik1387]

No, it wouldn't stop me.

 

[Cmill216]

Let me again state for the record that I'm not saying Welling is the choice. I just feel that he makes sense as a choice, and that the continuity between Smallville and this new world they're creating for Justice League shouldn't be that big of a deal, especially considering Warner Bros. has already displayed how much they care about continuity by having multiple big screen Batmen and Supermen in the same film era.

 

[Jake Cassidy]

Cool, Majik. I was just asking because you know how there are some people who will not see a movie just because they didn't get who they want?

Have you figured out you're long awaited casting choices yet?

 

[Majik1387]

Well I've stated that I do like MEW, Common, Cotrona and Duhamel for their rumored roles. Other than that, no I don't have my choices at the moment.

And I know what kind of people you're talking about, I'm not one of those people who'll avoid a movie because I didn't get the person I wanted.

 

[Sun_Down]

It's more of what WB is doing as opposed to what Tom can do.

But you're making all this concrete assertions and trying to make them sound like fact. If they really wanted Welling and he wanted the part, they wouldn't give a crap about Smallville. They've already proved they don't give a crap about their other film properties.

 

[Jake Cassidy]

^ Yeah, I thought so, Majik. You're alright, mate.

Duhamel would be a great Superman, imo.

I was giving WB the benefit of the doubt.


BTW, I wasn't really serious about anything I been debating, I was just bored.t:

I do think there's a bit of a continuity thing, but what can I do about it. :-\

 

[Jake Cassidy]

I've never heard of D.J. Cotrona. Is he a good actor?

 

[Sun_Down]

I was giving WB the benefit of the doubt.

Not really, you just seem to be wanting continuity between Smallville and the Justice League movie for some crazy reason.

 

[Majik1387]

I first saw him in Venom, it was a meh horror movie, but the acting was pretty good for it minus one actress. He had a Bruce Wayne vibe which is why I kinda like him for the role of Batman, plus he's got the look.

 

[Cmill216]

Thanks for wasting my time, then!

 

[Jake Cassidy]

Cool. Venom is the one with Meagan Good in it, right?

 

[Majik1387]

lol Thank you for not being a crazed Smallville fanatic though, I'm too tired to deal with one of those.

Ad yes, that Venom Jake.

 

[Jake Cassidy]

Thanks, mate. I really gotta see that now.

 

[Majik1387]

I found it an underrated horror movie when we have all these other crap horror movies taking it's thunder.

 

[Jake Cassidy]

I'm just seeing for the girls, so it doesn't really to me.

 

[Majik1387]

It also has Bijou Philips, a "contender" for Wonder Woman and/or Talia.

 

[Jake Cassidy]

Woohoo. 4 reasons to watch it. t:

 

[Gmanofsteel]

^ It's not like Smallville is that popular. If it was in the same league (hehe) as 24 or Heroes than there would be an issue.

Its popular enough to last seven seasons & 4 - 5 million viewers.

 

[JP]

4-5 million vewers isn't much. If Smallville was on a real network, 4-5 million viewers would equal cancellation.

 

[Jake Cassidy]

4 - 5 million viewers out of 300 million people in America. It doesn't even last long on Australia. They keep trying, but nobody watches it.

 

[Jake Cassidy]

Damn it, JP, you beat me.

 

[Cmill216]

4-5 million vewers isn't much. If Smallville was on a real network, 4-5 million viewers would equal cancellation.

Well, to be fair, if it was on a real network it would theoretically have higher ratings due to the fact that not every home gets The CW.
