Official Justice League Status Update Thread

[Superark]

I did not want a Justice League movie to be made.

I much rather see a Worlds Finest film.

 

[Changeling]

Hmm. I wanna see both, but I want JLA first and foremost

 

[Webhead2006]

yea it would be great to see either happen but with all the problems jl had and now dc going solo route first like marvel's approach. So with wb/dc we are likely not going to see wf/jl for so long.

 

[Changeling]

Ahh well. My predictions are:
Green Lantern: 2010
Shazam or Jonah Hex: 2011
Batman 3: 2011
Superman Reboot: 2012
JLA: 2013

 

[Changeling]

Oops forgot the rest!
Wonder Woman: 2014
Flash: 2014

I actually wanted it to be made. Thats how desperate I am for a JLA movie.

The younger cast was, to say the least, badly chosen. I know I'm speaking as a comic fan (and not as the majority of the population), but I think an eventual JLA film would go down better if Routh and Bale were cast alongside capable actors to play GL, WW and MM. (They can keep Teresa Palmer, though.)

And the choice of scriptwriters -- why a married couple who only has one barely-known flick on their resume? Either a proper JLA or WF film would've benefited from having Paul Dini and Bruce Timm writing the story.

I'm secretly glad JLA got canned. Warners needs to do the solo films right before heading towards JLA territory with a different cast.

I for one am glad to see it shelved

 

[Changeling]

I suppose its for the best. But I want to see a JLA movie so bad. Christian Bale and Brandon Routh should be attached next time they plan on one..

 

[Venom'sDad]

Well that won't happen

 

[Webhead2006]

yea we are looking at atless 8-10yrs minuim on jla ever happening more so if they cant get their heads on straight on how to take the dc characters to the big screen.

For me, the only bad thing in the movie was the cast. And i was willing to give Megan Gale, Adam Brody and Common the benefit of the doubt. The director was great, the SFX company was great, the producers we're great and, according to the reliable Patrick Sauriol, the Script was great. I would't be sad if they made the movie.

And i think they'll do it until 2016.

Whoa...JLA haters should look at that..He looks like Bruce

 

[jmc]

He looks more like a college frat boy.

 

[Webhead2006]

my main complain for hammer was his age and if he was batman with cotrona as supes they would have looked so off among other things.

 

[protocida]

Armie Hammer would be a decent Batman, judging by those pics.

Now, D.J. Cotrona is just wrong. REALLY wrong.

What flick is that? I can't find anything they've written.

No he doesn't.

Yes he does.

Yes they would have.

No he wouldn't.

Yes he is.

According to the IMDB, they're both co-directing Paper Man (they co-wrote the screenplay), which has Lisa Kudrow, Ryan Reynolds, and Emma Stone attached. Michelle also wrote some indy flick Sunny & Share Love You, which came out two years ago.

Additionally, they were rumored to have done uncredited rewrites on Mr. and Mrs. Smith.

It's worth remembering that WB was moving forward with a JLA movie because they liked the spec script that the Mulroney's produced, not because they were actively developing a JLA movie and those were the writers with the best resume they could find. WB apparently liked their previous work, asked them to pitch a new script of their choosing, and liked the final result. There's not one thing wrong with WB's approach.

A spec script is a great way to find new talent. A spec script is basically a lottery ticket and if WB didn't like the script, no big deal, nothing was in the pipeline anyways and spec scripts cost basically nothing by Hollywood standards. And if they did like the script, hey, potential blockbuster and new talent is discovered. There's no downside to commissioning a spec script.

 

[Venom'sDad]

None of this matter anyway, because the film is not being made.

Oh yeah, I'd forgotten about the Mr. & Mrs. Smith rewrites.

Thank God.

Wow! He does! And he sounds like the cartoon Batman with his deep voice.

 

[I Am The Knight]

I think he looks good in those pics. Like a young Bruce though, not an established one. And obviously you would have to lose the whole junkie/white trash thing.
