The Official Flash Thread

[Dark Knight]

Meh...I'm not high on Cooper at all actually.

I don't think he would be a good Barry Allen at all, but he would probably be a decent enough Wally West.......maybe.

Where did these alleged rumors come from regarding him being the alleged front runner?? Silly , if you ask me.

I would much rather a good overall actor like Ryan Gosling be cast as Barry Allen/The Flash way more than the *****e Cooper.

 

[Dark Knight]

Brad Bird or Gore Verbinski would probably be solid choices to direct a Flash film.

 

[Octoberist]

Actually, Bird is filming Mission Impossible 4 now, but has nothing afterwards so me THINKS he a real possibility.

And Gore...Gore has been sitting around doing nothing for the past 3-4 years. I think it's time for him to make a movie.

 

[OwlBoy]

Doesn't Bird have 1906 on his plate at some point??

Verbinski has directed an animated movie called Rango, which is coming out in March next year.

Yeah, getting Brad Bird to direct the Flash film would be an absolute coup for WB's, Legendary, and DCE.

I hope they consider him!

 

[MadVillainy]

And if Bird does Flash they'll probably give him more funds for that huge disaster movie project that he wanted to do, but cost 200 mill

 

[MadVillainy]

I am all for it if Gosling changes his mind

 

[annie.j88]

i find it cool that my ideal barry allen and my ideal lois lane both starred opposite each other as love intrests (the notebook)

 

[Young Superman]

Gosling would rock as Barry.

 

[HighFivingMF]

How's about...

 

[MadVillainy]

He's actually a really good actor
BUt I cant picture him as any superhero

 

[lixdexia]

i could see him as wally, idk about barry. i wouldn't be upset if he got it though

 

[Timstuff]

I hope we see Wally in a film sooner rather than later. And no, the "maybe in 10 years after we've had 3 Barry movies you'll get one with Wally" mantra ain't gonna cut it.

In general I wanted a Flash film with WAlly, Barry, Jay, and Bart down the road. But we're probably never gonna get one

 

[Octoberist]

Especially IF Greg Barlenti wants to go 'darker' with The Flash, for whatever reason.

Flash's tone should be around Iron Man's neighbourhood.

 

[cerealkiller182]

I think Cooper would be a fine Barry, a better Ollie though.

i think flash will be light hearted but the criminals/crime world wont

 

[MadVillainy]

I agree Flash should be Iron Man in tone
-------
OT:
Batman should stay at Nolan tone
Superman should be Superman Returns tone or a little darker. Seriously. THe tone was fine. IT was fun that kids could enjoy, but that adults could enjoy too. Good humor and all that.
Wondy should be like Clash of the Titans. I didnt like the movie, but WW should be a sword and sandals adventure film
Idk about GL, but from the script it was basically Star Trek

Agreed with all. WW could be more balanced than Clash of Titans.

And why does everybody keep forgetting Aquaman!
Underwater Arthurian film! t:

Since Berlanti wants to work on the criminal and cop politics side of Flash, the tone will be much darker than we expect. I personally think that the franchise should start with the establishment of costumed villains and supervillains rather than starting with the mob. Too TDK-ish.

 

[MadVillainy]

Damn my bad lol I thought I was missing one, but yeah Aquaman should be King Arthur , MArtian Manhunter should be Avatar mixed with War of the Worlds, Green Arrow should be Iron Man mixed with Batman.

 

[cerealkiller182]

Meh. Martian Manhunter should be more District 9 meets Dark City. Or Alien Nation

 

[youkaisama]

Well, it depends on the setting of the movie. (If there is a Martian Manhunter movie). If they go with the time before J'onzz came to Earth and his battles with the White Martian, an Avatar tone could work.

But if they go the PI route, yea, Alien Nation would be a brilliant example.

 

[MadVillainy]

Yeah I was thinking before he came to Earth
