IESB: Welling out of the running for JLA Superman

[Majik1387]

Sorry, not to knock on Welling, but Routh has the better hair. I mean just look at it in the above pics. Welling's hair looks oily in the above pic.

 

[KalKai]

How sad.. are you all bald or something?

 

[Majik1387]

Nope. Actually have a full head of hair, not too different from Routh's hairstyle.

 

[Noir]

...**** Welling.

 

[TheComicbookKid]

The good thing about Welling is there won't be any speculations about him. People made their minds up about him seven years ago. The casting for the rest of the movie will be scrutinized to no end.

 

[Majik1387]

The best thing about Welling is he won't be cast.

 

[KalKai]

The best thing about all of this will be seeing you eat crow. Delusional fool, lol.

just when you think the fanboyish debates cant get any lower....

 

[Majik1387]

No, I know it sounds ridiculous, but since I'm into fashion and design I think of all that kinds of stuff. He's had better pics where his hair looks kick ass, but the above pic isn't one of them

 

[TheComicbookKid]

That makes sense. YOu are pretty hard on the casting and it made me wonder.


What do you think the color scheme should be for JL, Majik. Darkened colors or bright.

 

[Prison Mike]

Regardless of the hair, Welling IS Superman...

 

[The Incredible Hulk]

debating hair for Superman is pointless. Christopher Reeve wore a wig for cripes sake.

I'm all for them not dulling down the colors, but I'm not saying go the neon route either. Al the members should stand out on their own yet compliment their team members. This movie has the chance to kind incorporate the comic costumes with the real world. I don't know where it started that dark colors=real world.

Regardless of the hair, Welling IS Superman...

For the Smallville universe.

*shakes fist*
Damn you with your common sense!

 

[Nighthawk_Fan]

**** Welling.

I use to think everyone liked Welling. So much hate for the guy...

 

[DA Dent]

I don't understand it myself, I think Welling is a great portrayer of Kent/Superman.

 

[NIGHTSWING]

First, I can't understand why am not in bed yet! Second, do Welling ears look level to you guys?

 

[Majik1387]

There's nothing wrong with Welling's ears

 

[rdh007]

Except that they're attached to his hackalicious head...

 

[Majik1387]

He's hot to look at but he needs to not talk or try to emote.

 

[Gmanofsteel]

...**** Welling.

I completely respect your sexual orientation

 

[Gmanofsteel]

This is my Superman

Heh!

No one would have believed in the last days before an official announcement that this forum was being watched keenly and closely by users greater in number than those present and yet as mortal as their own; that as users busied themselves about their various concerns they were scrutinized and studied, perhaps almost as narrowly as a fan with a computer might scrutinize the microfibers that exist in a Superman costume. With infinite complacency users went to and fro over this forum about their little affairs, serene in the assurance of their empire over fandom. It is possible that the geeks in other forums do the same. No one gave a thought to the older franchises of Warners as sources of potential danger, or thought of them only to dismiss the idea of another actor being cast as Superman as impossible or improbable. It is curious to recall some of the posting habits of those departed days. At most, Superman fans fancied there might be other fans in cyberspace, perhaps inferior to themselves and ready to welcome a missionary franchise. Yet across the gulf of the Internet, fanatical fans that are to our fanship as ours are to those of films that bomb, fanships vast and cool and unsympathetic, regarded this forum with envious eyes, and slowly and surely drew their plans against us...

Only in Superman 3 or 4. In STM and S2 he dyed his hair. He had an alergic reaction to the dye in later films.

the good thing? its not like everyone on the world likes him. so its a good thing that if he is cast that the ones who didnt like him wont like him now?
