but he was technically he was just a nolanized realistic take on the character much like bane and scarecrow

Spoiler

name is robin,was an orphan like robin,and took on the bat cave to likely take up his legacy

he was'nt gonna be from the circus in nolan's universe

He never dressed up in the role, it wasn't a title, it was a first name and a stupid nod, nothing more. Mr. Reese as Riddler has more credibility.
Bane and Scarecrow were more like their respected characters than the over-bastardization of JGL's.

over bastardization? What a weird way to put it.

Okay after seeing TDKR twice, I see your point Lone.


But to be fair, it's left completely vague.

Spoiler

Unfortunately the plot elements from TDKR and the evolution of the Bruce character make it incredibly counterproductive for him to return as Batman, as I suspected. Bruce Wayne as Batman is over. He got his happy ending.

Which makes me sadder that Heath died because [BLACKOUT]they could definitely adapt "A Death In The Family". The only reason for Bruce to return as Batman would be a storyline where Blake is killed. That no matter how hard he tries, the darkness will always come back for him and The Batman is his demon to bear alone.[/BLACKOUT]

But that would cheapen everything that happened in TDKR though..I dunno.

 

[combocaz]

back on topic.

 

[FVD]

I just had the idea of Michael C. Hall as Barry Allen/The Flash come up. The guy is in good shape and while he's already playing a Blood Spatter Analyst on Dexter, that in a way is close to being a Crime Scene Investigator I suppose. And he sure knows how to be funny too.

 

[protocida]

I don't see it.

 

[DamionDL]

My picks would probably be:

Superman - Henry Caville

Batman - Jensen Ackles. Based on his Jason Todd in Under the Red Hood I think he could pull off Bruce/Batman.

Wonder Woman - Charisma Carpenter. I honestly think she could pull it off. Although I do understand if she may be too old for some people to consider her.

Hal Jordan - Ryan Reynolds. I think he did good with what he was given.


Barry Allen - Neil Patrick Harris. After someone else in the early pages mentioned him I thought about it and I think he could do a good job. Plus, I think him and Ryan could portray the Hal/Barry friendship quite well.

I'm not sure on an Aquaman or Martian Manhunter and I think they should save Cyborg for a Teen Titans movie.

 

[J'adore]

I could see Tyler Hoechlin as Batman actually...Well, a bit brushed up on acting but yeah he'd be quite suitable.

 

[TheWatcher]

I've never seen Hoechlin in anything. His look is fine for Batman.

 

[Batman Returns]

I really hope they don't make Justice League so white-washed and a predominately sausage fest.

If they can take tips from the FLAWLESS Cartoon Network show about how the team should be, then we're in for the home stretch.

 

[Doctor Jones]

Who the hell is this Hoechlin and other than his looks, why should he play Batman?

EDIT: Apparently, he played Batman in the Arkham games...

Yes, this makes him qualify to take on a live action version of a major franchise.

what?! you do realize that kevin conroy was the voice of batman in the "arkham games." i really hope you're joking because your research is flawed.

 

[TheWatcher]

Maybe he means mo-cap?

 

[Artistsean]

Spoiler

John Blake won't become Batman. Batman is exclusive to Bruce. The ending implied Blake would have to become his own superhero. Possibly Robin.

Spoiler

Nolan, at the MTV movie awards last year (I think) said that he wanted to give BRUCE's story an ending. He went out of his way to say that Bruce Wayne was a great character and it was nice to give his story an ending.
Sort of implying without saying anything that Batman's story hasn't ended. And the movie went out of its way to explain that Batman could be anyone. Bruce told Blake that.

Tyler Hoechlin played alongside Tom Hanks in "Road to Perdition" as the character's son. He was also a supporting cast member in "7th Heaven" and "Teen Wolf". Although he is 25 now, most people would argue that he is too young to play Batman. Now, Nightwing one the other hand...

 

[Llama_Shepherd]

Who could make a good Superman, provided Henry Cavill chooses not to reprise the role?

 

[Majik1387]

I can tell you who wouldn't, Armie Hammer.

 

[Llama_Shepherd]

cosigned.

 

[TheWatcher]

I have a feeling Cavill will definitely be in the JLA movie. It makes too much sense.

 

[Lobo]

I'm going to say that when it is made, Cavill will most certainly be wearing the red cape. Also as for the roster, I feel that they will go with the DCnU roster which includes Cyborg in the place of Martian Manhunter.

I'm working on my cast now, based on that line up with Cavill and Reynolds reprising their respective roles.

 

[Aethea]

I just hope that they invest in the characters. I want to be able to care about them and see a personality. I personally do not want Ryan Reynolds as GL. He struggles with serious dialogue. It's hard to believe what he says. I would have liked a Wonder Woman movie before this movie. It's truly sad that WB has not been proficient enough to take that movie off the ground.

 

[Majik1387]

I don't think Ryan struggles with serious dialogue, I mean he was great in the Amityville Horror remake, and say what you will about horror movies, but he played the role well. I just think he needs a better script and director.

 

[ThePowerCosmic]

Of course it makes sense. They're not going to get a different actor to play Superman in the JL movie. It's just pointless and causes unnecessary confusion.

 

[Superman Lives]

Cavill is possible. Reynolds is not. His ship as sailed.

 

[Micromind]

I want Cavill to continue as Superman for JL movie, though if he is not allowed then Routh would be a acceptable though some fans will not want that, it would be best to find someone new.
