Tom Welling as Superman

[OobeDoobBenubi]

Sounds like we're still at square one

Not really since the other heroes are casted & if what Robert & The Counting Down Chick say is true. That is a big step up compared to where we were

 

[AgentPat]

Oh god to think all 6 / 7 of these guys are casted is scary

Exhilarating, init?

I don't want to jinx it though, so I'm trying to maintain my composure... which is like trying to hold back the ocean with a broom, but I'm hanging in there. The amount of people this casting would make happy is staggering...

And to think Alex Ross drew that in 2004. Wow.

I meant with news about Tom. I'm excited to hear the other actors that have been cast, but my overwhelmingly primary concern is about .

 

[OobeDoobBenubi]

His agents probably just want to be sure that him doing this movie will be good for his career. This movie will either be the best no brainer movie of all time or a big flop

 

[JackMercy]

You know, it kinda feels like the hours and minutes leading up to the millennium, here...

You just don't know which way it's gonna go...

A New Beginning... or Apocalypse?

 

[OobeDoobBenubi]

Hey Jack can you say that the other roles has definitely been casted ?

 

[JackMercy]

His agents probably just want to be sure that him doing this movie will be good for his career.

Nahhh... They're just waitin' to see if it's actually going ahead or not...

 

[OobeDoobBenubi]

So in other words if Tom gets it he will be the last one casted

 

[AgentPat]

You know, it kinda feels like the hours and minutes leading up to the millennium, here...

You just don't know which way it's gonna go...

A New Beginning... or Apocalypse?

LMAO!!! I'm guessing by the way Warners has been pursuing Welling, they're trying to avoid the latter. Good for them. Smart people they are. So far.

Apocalypse? As in Mel Gibson? Mel Gibson played Mad Max. Which was directed by George Miller! I win!

sorry im bored

 

[DvilDog]

I leave the boards for a couple hours to nap and look what happens now I'm excited all over again I knew I should have flown to cali today LOL

It's gotten to the point where I cant walk away for ten minutes w/o fear of missing something. Talk about an addiction. Oh brother, this one's baaaaaaad.

 

[TheLongestDay]

Is there that much of a possibilty we will hear something tonight then?

 

[Serene]

You know, it kinda feels like the hours and minutes leading up to the millennium, here...

You just don't know which way it's gonna go...

A New Beginning... or Apocalypse?

Apocalypse as in.. Apocalypse NOW?

So.. Tom is cast NOW????

(It was worth a shot. ).

 

[AgentPat]

Is there that much of a possibilty we will hear something tonight then?

No, doubtful. Based on what others have said, I'm guessing Friday at the earliest. But keep your eyes peeled around the 11am and 1pm (PST) times because I've noticed announcements are usually made around then. Funny how the world revolves around Hollywood lunch hour LOL.

 

[TheLongestDay]

lol,well its 1am here now-but im seriously contemplating staying up

 

[The Incredible Hulk]

So in other words if Tom gets it he will be the last one casted

sorry not be a jerk, but this is just pet peeve of mine:

the past, present, and future tense of "cast" is still cast.

Tom is cast

Tom was cast

Tom will be cast

leave off the ed for Erica Durance

 

[OobeDoobBenubi]

Didnt the counting down chick say dont expect nothing until next week ?

 

[DvilDog]

If something happened tonight I would be really surprised granted its only 4 on the west coast I was just happy tomorrow tomorrow was Thursday

 

[OobeDoobBenubi]

Sorry Hulk but Im not changing how I type for one person. Since I barely use that word as it is & to me using just "cast" sounds weird you will have to get used to it.

 

[AgentPat]

lol,well its 1am here now-but im seriously contemplating staying up

Oh, MAN! That's right, you're in the UK.

Well, for what it's worth, I seriously doubt anything official will be announced right now. It's almost 5:30pm in Hollywood right now; the suits are all stuck in traffic on their way home.

I AM thinking Friday is a distinct possibility however - maybe even Saturday - and here's why. It is my belief that Warners is going to want to make a BIG deal about this announcement. They're going to call a press conference and have Dan Lin and George Miller there. Alan Horn might also be present. They might also want to have the big three there for star power - the actors cast for Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman. Ryan Reynolds being such a huge fan favorite might be requested too - if he's cast of course.

Welling is currently shooting SV in Vancouver, so he can't just take off for an hour in order to be present, and his casting would be a HUGE deal if it happens. So Warners might want to wait till the weekend or the days that bookend it (Friday or Monday) in order to allow Welling to be there. Doing this near the weekend eases the burden on the SV production, which needs Welling on set every day if possible.

If it doesn't happen this weekend, then it might not be until NEXT weekend before we hear anything official.

This is all speculation on my part though. Maybe Warners will just issue a memo?



...nah.

 

[DvilDog]

Well proper grammar can be a big deal to some people my mom teaches grammar to 5th graders imagine how my childhood went

It's not a personal preference thing - it's standard English. In the US, at least... Sort of like "sheep" is both singular and plural.
