I mean, Lobo is anti-hero like Punisher as opposed to Venom.

 

[Rust]

I guess Marvel has plenty on anti-heroes

 

[GreenKToo]

WB, unlike marvel, does not have to make CB films. They can pretty much make whatever kind of film they want. That said, they would be stupid to not try and make a WF's film with Cavill AND Bale.

Just the idea alone screams all kinds of $$$$ to be made. Imagine Nolan and Snyder co-directing a WF's film. ( if such a thing were possible )

There's all kinds of possibilities with the villains. You could have Luthor and Metallo or perhaps Bizarro, and maybe the Joker and Solomon Grundy.
You could have the villains team up and switch foes, Joker and Grundy to Metropolis, Luthor and Metallo or Bizarro to Gotham.

I think a trilogy that features Zod, Luthor and Braniac, and Darkseid would be fantastic, though I want to see Darkseid used in a Justice League film even more. Both would be phenomenal, a third Superman film that features Darkseid, and then a Justice League film where he's even more of a threat somehow, something akin a Crisis perhaps.

Metallo's long overdue for an appearance, as is Parasite, but I can see them being tied to Braniac somehow.

And part of still wants to see Doomsday done right.

 

[Kal-El.9859]

That's what I'm thinking. He'll be a really hard sell, and that's not really their best force when it comes to superheroes. Could go either way though. Hellboy was fairly successful and he was a somewhat obscure character.

that's true..so touche'. I'm just not feeling a Lobo movie...maybe put him in another heroes movie and establish him that way, then go out and do a solo film...THAT might work

 

[nocomics]

I would still love a Superman v. Doomsday film!!!!

 

[Rockstar]

On the topic of a DC shared universe on film, personally I feel like WB/DC missed their best chance to create one.

Batman Begins seemed like the perfect launchpoint for the DCU. It's quite possibly the best superhero origin film ever made and will be difficult to top.

During Batman's first appearance in the film, it made me realistically believe that this was the first appearance of a superhero in the real world. They could have easily built a DC Universe from there.

If that was the case, then Superman Returns would have been a part of that "shared universe" given on how it came out a year later, and he would end up being the "Hulk" of the DC franchise where his film didn't meet expectations like his colleagues did.

 

[Rockstar]

Unfortunately Superman Returns wasn't designed to complement Batman Begins.

Imagine if MoS came out in 2006 right after Batman Begins. Everyone in the general audience would assume the movies are commonly linked.

 

[Rust]

I prefer each movie to function in it's own universe first and foremost. I hate how the Marvel-movies were designed to lead up to the Avengers. I think the movies felt limited by that prospect. The Avengers-elements in THOR and Captain America felt a little forced IMO.

Agreed; especially since the heroes were only allowed to face certain level of threats within a specific timeframe and place in order to ensure that there would be no way that they could call upon help prior before the events of TA.

I'm with you on this TG

You wanna rephrase that. I get lost in the long sentence. t:

The Supes outfit looking great.

Well I think they tried, cause they did mention Gotham in SR

No doubt more of the same amazing stuff!

I'm going to explode with anticipation!

Seems to be working successfully though.

 

[Rust]

Depends on who you are looking at it. Just because it's a money-grabber dont make it a good movie. Avengers might work, but IMO THOR and CA didnt. Like I said.

 

[Kal-El.9859]

oh how I love their videos...

Now, i like both movies myself (Cap more than Thor), but if Thor and Cap had any flaws, I don't really think it had anything to do with them leading into the Avengers.

The plotting for both movies was pretty damn close to their original comic source material, and neither really had any plot points that played into The Avengers until the very end, and even there it made sense. I mean, for instance, Cap is SUPPOSED to wake up in the present and join the Avengers. That's how it's always been and should be.

The flaws I'd say both movies do have is an overall simplicity in their scripts and an inability to really do anything daring or noteworthy in their scripts. Neither featured anything new or inventive like TDK or X-Men: First Class did. But again, even if they didn't tie into an Avengers movie, those flaws still would've been there.

 

[BigThor]

I don't care what anyone says, Superman's costume is BADASS in this film and one of my favorite cmb costumes ever.
