The Official Flash Thread

[Man of Tomorrow]

Flash is in a different situation than Wonder Woman.

WB actually wants Flash.


WW is doomed.

 

[Octoberist]

I guess The Flash is in the same boat as Supermax.

 

[MadVillainy]

I like the gold boots. Mostly because if its not it would probaly be red, right? Looking like hes wearing footy pajamas

I think Flash is one of those suits that dont need a whole lot of changing. It looks fine to me. I wouldnt even mind having whited out eyes, but those arent a must.

Spoiler

I wouldnt mind something like this just without the glove things

I guess The Flash is in the same boat as Supermax.

Im glad thats happening to Supermax...sounds more like a Punisher movie.
But The Flash needs to get made. Soon hopefully

 

[cerealkiller182]

i really like the boots

 

[Man of Tomorrow]

I guess The Flash is in the same boat as Supermax.

It's further along that Supermax.


It's about #4 on the priority list;

1) Green Lantern

2) Batman III

3) Superman reboot

4) Flash

 

[Evil Twin]

I don't know that he needs the lightning armbands, belt, etc. If he has them, they need to be functional, which means the bands would measure speed or something techy, and the belt would need to have forensic equipment and vitimans or energy shots on it or something. I'd almost like to see the gold/lightning effect be just that...a lightning effect when he uses his powers, with a focus on his headpieces and oval for the gold to offset the red the rest of the time.

I can't see yellow boots working all that well in any sense. Regardless of the material and hue. I know they're classic, but...bright gold boots for the sake of color coordination? Maybe some gold wingtips on his legs or red boots with gold "highlights" or something.

To me, Barry having a color coordinated outfit seems like it's consistent with his character, a comic book geek himself. It's a character point if he embraces being a comic book character come to life. Which includes a sharp looking outfit. You don't need to get worried about functionality.

BTW, Carmine Infantino putting those treads on Barry Allen's boots in the first place really is a forward thinking piece of costume design. It tells you right away he's a runner.

It seems like that's the order. Maybe I would put Superman at number 2 only because of the 'rights dispute' that's going on right now.

 

[cerealkiller182]

Id put Jonah Hex at number one because im not sure if its completely finished yet. Seems most if not all of the shooting is done but still not completely

 

[Octoberist]

then you also have The Losers but I guess that list only points on movies still in Development or in pre-production.

 

[cerealkiller182]

I think they would count on the list though. Still need attention and allocation of funds. Attention and funds currently being taken away from the others technically

 

[Octoberist]

I wish I knew what WB's ultimate game plan was. Give us some dates,for God's sakes.

 

[MadVillainy]

WB ultimate gameplan=worry about the other 20+ franchises we own

I think or at least it seems one of the problems is how indecisive they seem. I mean Goyer's Flas canned because it was too dark, now the Shazam film collapsed because it wasnt dark enough like TDK

Also I think they mistake "mature" for the word "dark" and not every hero even needs to be TDK level mature

 

[Octoberist]

Wasn't Shazam also caught up at New Line at the time, and when New Line collaspe, WB just threw it under the bus?

 

[Man of Tomorrow]

It seems like that's the order. Maybe I would put Superman at number 2 only because of the 'rights dispute' that's going on right now.

Yep.

Batman III and Superman are close right now. One may surpass the next any time now.


WB is waiting on Nolan to make a decision, Superman is getting worked out..


But I'd say Batman edges Superman out on the priority list right now.

 

[Man of Tomorrow]

Id put Jonah Hex at number one because im not sure if its completely finished yet. Seems most if not all of the shooting is done but still not completely

I wouldnt count Jonah Hex.

It's currently in Post-Production.


It's almost complete.


By priorities, I meant properties that haven't started principal photography yet.

 

[Octoberist]

Nevermind my Shazam comment: It's being rewritten, with Geoff Johns!

[Webhead2006]

interesting now he is working on flash and shazam

 

[Octoberist]

that's weird isn't it? He's never been associated with Shazam before, nor is it a HUGE property. At the sametime, it still has more progress than most of the DC projects so..

 

[Webhead2006]

Yea hopefully like i was just saying in other thread maybe with johns working on this and flash if both actually happen that is. Mayve johns/wolfman/3rd writer guy i am blanking on his name could also have their hands in superman to get that dam property on track. Since we all dam well know how much problems wb has had with supes.

 

[Octoberist]

maybe all three for SUPERMAN!! HAAH

 

[Webhead2006]

Well that would be a great thing for the fans of them and for superman in general to actually have some solid dam news on supes and if they will be able to make that court deadline of getting a film up and running.

 

[Octoberist]

Even though the Flash news was included when DC/WB's plans for their comic book properties, it would have been nice if Flash got its own article. Shazam got its own, why not Flash!!!! ahh

 

[Webhead2006]

Well flash is probably not that far into development now since last director gave up on the project? my guess that is.

 

[protocida]

I bet Johns will have something to do with Superman. Morrison could too. That'd be the Superman's fan biggest dream.

 

[Octoberist]

Well flash is probably not that far into development now since last director gave up on the project? my guess that is.

ah yes, David Dobkins. you're right about that.
