The Official Start/Release Date & Location Thread

[Showtime]

Sigh.... another person that thinks he can predict the future and knows everything.

Do you work at WB? How do you know they will make a reboot as the Hulk?

The article says MOS won't be released in 2009 ( something most of us already knew ). There are no plans for a sequel because of the strike and Singer is still working on Valkyrie.

No one is pitching a script right now, again because of the strike.

The Strike is just about over.

I'd rather we should of had more development hell, because if SR is the best they can do, it doesn't deserve a movie.

We know that they can do better, but they are really lazy to do it. I don't understand why the directors and producers of most of the movies based on comic books don't ask for advice from the comic book writers. It is like if their ego don't allow them to do that ( Singer, Burton and some others).

 

[nintendo nerd]

The Strike is just about over.

Yeah. I've been reading about it. Good news. We will probably have some news about Superman's future in the next couple of weeks.

 

[Super Kal]

maybe, hopefully, Singer won't be attached to that future

 

[Showtime]

Hopefully, but I think you're going to hear reports about JLA's future on non future instead.

 

[Super Kal]

i can deal with that

 

[Mr. Socko]

Obviously. Bryan Singer won't be finished with Valkyrie until October of this year(it's month of release). So full on production couldn't even start until October at the soonest, there's really no way a sequel in '09 would even be possible. It is now 2008, SR came out two years ago and WB isn't even sure about a sequel. I'm doubting it'll ever see the light of day now. Superman on film has always given our boys a hassle.

Screw it, just start cooking another TV series already, WB. Even if all you do is put Welling in the cape and change the title to METROPOLIS, at this rate it'd still do more than the feature film division will ever be capable of, even if the writing's not that great anymore.

I'd actually watch if this happened.

So, you said that SR doesn't deserve to have a sequel, then that means, Brandon Routh doesn't deserve to play as Superman again.

Yes, no more Brandon Routh are any one else form SR.

Most films I do not like are not based off a franchise I grew up with and have been anticipating a new film for like 20 years.

You must be a Brandon Routh hater, which it is really sad and PATHETIC.

Just because I did not want Routh in the next Superman movie does not mean I hate him. In fact the reason I do not want him back has more to do with the poor direction he received form Singer. I have seen Spacey in other films and would consider him a fine actor but he was stupid and campy as Lexs so I do not want him back either.

Lex was more campy played by Hackman in Superman 1 and 2, then he was in SR. I mean look at that idiot campy sidekick he had around him in Ottis.

 

[GreenKToo]

It's your opinion, not a fact.

Think about this. There are few people on this board want Brandon Routh back for the sequel. I'm one of them.

If Warner Bros wants to replace Brandon Routh by different actor for reboot, I'm not going to support the movie.

If Brandon Routh comes back either sequel or reboot, I WILL support the movie.

 

[Super Kal]

so would I... but only if it was Routh.

 

[hippie_hunter]

I think it was pretty damn obvious that this film was not going to make it in 2009 with the writers strike and Warner Bros.' uncertainty with it.

That's an idiotic stance to take. Routh isn't the only actor capable of pulling off the role. Given SR, what he did wasn't even all that amazing in the first place.

100% of the fans were just fine w/o Routh, but the second SR comes out, he's all of a sudden irreplaceable? Please.

So you're not really a fan of Superman. You don't really care about the films. You're just interested in Brandon Routh with blue tights, a cape, and a red speedo?

Correct me where I am wrong.

I can tell you're being sarcastic.

I'm a long time fan of Superman since I was a kid, and still a fan. I want Brandon Routh to come back as Superman again because HE IS SUPERMAN.

EDIT: Btw, I'm not ****IN' gay. PERIOD. Ugh.

 

[wellsy]

Prime, you should really calm down.

The role of Superman is larger than any one actor. You should know that. I certainly do.

Just, take it easy about it. Brandon was good. But his very presence in the role (not to mention the many other actors who have played Superman) is in itself contradictory to your statements of support.

I've no desire to tell you what to like, but while you can say (quite rightly) that Brandon is your favourite Superman actor thus far, don't say he's the only one fit for the role.

Please.

 

[Super Kal]

I like Routh as Superman, but indeed the role is much more important than him... this is what happened with Reeves and Reeve: they played Superman, and everyone only saw them as that character.

 

[Showtime]

To me Brandon Routh IS Superman at this point, I liked him in the role. As sombody else alluded to though, Superman is bigger than Routh, Superman is even bigger than the character itself. Bryan Singer said it himself, Superman will go on long after his vision.

 

[Mr. Socko]

I can tell you're being sarcastic.

I'm a long time fan of Superman since I was a kid, and still a fan. I want Brandon Routh to come back as Superman again because HE IS SUPERMAN.

I think Routh did fine with what he had to work with, and I believe he has great potential to do even better. I was just questioning your "I'll only watch if he's attached to the film" stance.

EDIT: Btw, I'm not ****IN' gay. PERIOD. Ugh.

What the hell does that have to do with anything?

But I'll make sure I keep it noted for your satisfaction sweetheart.

 

[Nightwing1977]

Same here. It's already slowing down JLA & that was suppose to come out in 2009. If JLA were to come out in 2009, I imagine SR sequel or whatever would be out the year after or beyond that. Of course, anything is possible. We'll just have to wait & see what the future hold for both of the 2 with the strike likely being over anytime right now.

I'm just saying what I think, this is a forum after all
