The Official Marc Guggenheim & Script Discussion Thread (Spoilers)

i think they should, like Legendary Pictures.

 

[protocida]

is this a lot like geoff john's vision of gl?

There are some of Geoff's concepts, like Hal's mother not liking her husband's (And eventually her son's) job, the Color Spectrum and etc. But there's not much.

i think they should, like Legendary Pictures.

ya something like that. But all in all Im still happy WB owns the rights and not some studio that makes extremely crappy comic films

^ cough FOX cough cough

^ cough FOX cough cough

lol, D-Man you should get that cough checked out, it almost sounded like you were saying that Fantastic Four 1 & 2, X3 are not Oscar worthy movies




(One more post till I hit 700)

 

[D-Man22]

^Oh yeah I totally forgot about those. I take back my statement then.



cough no I don't cough cough

 

[protocida]

Hey, D-Man, you should REALLY have that cough checked.

 

[batlovescatDC]

If Johns did ANY contributing with the script whatsoever then this project has my complete faith. Now what they need to do is get him on as an actual screenwriter for Flash or Supes.

 

[protocida]

Dan Mazeau (Johnny Quest) will write The Flash.

But I hope Johns gets Superman. He alredy said he has ideas for it (And, unlike Mark Millar, he keeps them for himself in casa Warner calls him). And Richard Donner himself said he should write it.

 

[MadVillainy]

Dan Mazeau (Johnny Quest) will write The Flash

Im sad

Actually not sad I just wish they picked someone else

 

[protocida]

Johnny Quest sounds really good. I think he might pull it of.

 

[MadVillainy]

Is there a script review for it

 

[Octoberist]

but I heard that they got the dude who directed "Race to Witch Mountain".

I'm not saying that this director is bad, but from the looks of it, he's the Tim Story type: Generic.

What you need is a timeless look that harkens back to Amblin movies of the 80s. A sense of awe and wonder. Instead, I'm sure we'll get a lot of CGI and pop culture.

[MadVillainy]

Lol is a plot summary enough to think a movie is good? From a plot summary The Spirit and Spiderman 3 looked good

 

[protocida]

Sorry, Salaak.

 

[Octoberist]

that's the problem with the Latino Review script reviews..it's not really a review per say. It's a summary, and an ending paragraph saying how much he likes/hates it. That's it. Not very constructive at all.

 

[MadVillainy]

how much do you think the script has changed since the version in OP because Im thinking about reading the whole thing but I dont want the movie to be ruined for me (the jokes and all that)

 

[protocida]

I believe a lot has changed, thanks to the Studio's notes and Geoff's rewrites. The 1° draft has 107 pages, and the 3° draft has 127.

 

[Webhead2006]

Yea like protocida a lot has/was likely changed/fixed/altered or removed and replaced with something else. I cant wait to see how it turns out.

 

[MadVillainy]

I finally read the first draft..........
Holy s***. It was awesome. More of a Marvel movie feel but still great. I am throwing out most of my current casting choices especially Josh Hartnett as GL. I loved the Alan Scott bit. It was funny and I think it would be great on screen. Cant wait

 

[protocida]

Josh Harnett?

 

[GlasgowBat]

Alan scott bit?

 

[protocida]

What about it?

Oh, and here's something I really hope they get rid of of:

Broome: "That's for making me rob a bank, a*shole!"

 

[Sub-Zero]

that sounds pretty funny and really out of place for a green lantern movie.
