ya i was told before barry became flash at or around 24yrs old, if barry is picked as the film for the film they will probably want to go origin route, and have a young actor like porter attached so they can lock him into a multi pic deal. I think i asked this before what is the age differences between barry and wally when wally first started out as kid flash?
 
well doesnt barry have his own sense of humor too. like i said i hope they dont cheat out on characters you know. like have it be barry, his job, but wally's personality/traits. or vis virsa. Their is plently of time and series of films they can do to do both characters to justice.
 
think about this:

Look at Robert Downey Jr's Tony Stark. I don't think that Tony was that witty in the comics.
 
but read Secret Origins..Hal has a snarky attitude but maintains that alpha dog vibe, you know? People too forget that Hal can be a smartass too.
 
Ya and we dont even know how ryan will be playing hal for the film yet. they havent even started filming.
 
yeah.

If the movie is good and doesn't ruin the 'mythos', then it's fine as long as it works.
Again, I see comic book movies as the gateway to comics. There maybe changes, but the integrity has to be there.
 
Man, if District 9 turns out to be a hit, I could see that director (i'm not even going to try and spell his name) come on board.
 
I would prefer Blomkamp for a Superman movie, but if he gets The Flash I wouldnt be upset at all

Side note: Is anybody opposed to the idea of restarting the poll? I would like to see how the poll will play out now that Barry is the full time Flash in the comics, Reynolds is cast as GL, etc. I think the results would be closer
 
I agree. I think Blomkamp is more inline with a Superman type than a Flash, though for sure, I would love for him to The Flash.
 
If they make this movie soon (wich I hope) and they go with Barry, I think (and hope, again) they´ll make him around 30, not 24, I mean, if they do plan to create a movie DC universe, well, they already have Batman starting his career and 29/30 (an in the TDK, he´s 30/31), and they cast Ryan Reynolds (33) for Hal Jordan, also, they have a 30 or so Superman if they decide to stick with Routh (I´m a suporter, but please, let´s not start that here), so it would make sense to make Barry 30 at the beginning of his career, that way, you can also include Wally in the picture and not to have to make him so young, maybe in between 17/20, I think that´s be alright.

Absolutely. Barry has a great sense of humor too. Either way, Barry or Wally, none are the JLU Flash.

^^ I'd be fine with Barry as 24, I mean Hal was 26 when he became GL, BUT, Reynolds is a lot older than 26. So in the interest of being consistent, the guy that plays Barry should be about the same age as reynolds, maybe just a little younger. :)
 
Hopefully they wont merge characters or give characters others traits. Their is plently you can do with either barry, wally, etc.... speedster, and i dont even know much on these characters.

I'm not opposed to that. I mean, most the people who voted only knew (or know) The Flash as the 2 dimensional character off JLU. That's evident off the very first page.

I'm not saying the results will be THAT far apart yet, I mean, Barry is just getting started in the books again, but I think people are definitely more aware of Barry now, and even more aware of who Wally is, so it might not be a bad idea. :-)
 
Stephen Sommers still gets my vote. Especially after the Paris chase in G.I. Joe: Rise of the Cobra. :woot:
 
heres my trilogy plan
1st
-origin,rogues(captain cold,mirror master,weather wizard).

-wally is now kid flash and he's loving every part of it.
-barry's police friend hunter zolomon is caught in a battle between the flash(kid flash as well) and savitar,this badly affects his brain and gives him mental and physical scars
-making him want to torment and kill flash and make kid flash a better hero.

I kind of doubt that Wally will be introduced into the movies until there's a plan to pass the torch. Certainly I wouldn't expect teen Wally to become leading man Wally, they'd recast at that point. If they do a Barry origin, Wally really doesn't have a role in that story as anything other than a cameo. A brief mention is all you need to establish that Iris has a nephew.

Edit: It's a little like trying to shoehorn Dick Grayson into the Batman series. When you want to deal with that story is when you do it, not as a promise for future stories.
