This is a continuation thread, the old thread is [split]336429[/split]
Losers, Jon Hex, that's just this year. What is so hard about making a great Superman movie? It's 2010! I hope Green Lantern kicks butt so they (Warner Bro) gain some confidence in the source material. I know I could come up with a good Superman movie ... they made Avatar for like $400, I think.
Keep his Blue uni exact as comic and give him a real foe, lose that looser Luther. Then ACTION, ACTION, ACTION. Drop Lois, make the treat world wide and progressive.
Dark Knight was good, but I enjoyed Batman Begin's more. I needed to know what made this Joker so unbeatable.
Love the Green Arrow ideas about the prison. Make it already.
I think WB is over analysing. Pay the writers that understand the characters to start writing. Superrvise the Producer & Director, is it that hard?
How would you turn things around?
Anyway, it is a colossal shame that f***ing Rocket Racoon will be appearing in live action before Wonder Woman or Flash. In fact, and this is not to diss the characters or those who like them, I think it's a damn shame that GOTG in general are getting a film before Wonder Woman or Flash
Superhero movies are often the most hyped and successful movies of the year. I dont know why WB is shying away from that kind of success

You can make a case that prior to Iron mans emergence in 08, they were only behind Supes, Bats, Spidey and Wolverine in Gen audience popularity.
I can actually see Wonder Woman doing the same thing unless you get someone like a Whedon who can actually understand the character and translate it to film.

Honestly, I increasingly suspect the Nolan Batfilms are a fluke. Or rather, they aren't a fluke, they are the result of *Nolan's* talent, not any indication of WB's capacity.
Which is why I want to see how Man of Steel does, as while Nolan is involved, its a much more distant involvement.
I can't wait until some DC die hards try to come in and spin it like WB/DC is doing a good job with adapting their movies

I know WB (not counting New Line) has other franchises, but when you look at it (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warner_Bros.#Warner_Bros._franchises) their franchises are in kinda a weird postion. Hangover will, allegedly, end after the next film. Clash of the Titans is in a decline. Happy Feet 2 flopped. They are doing anything theatrically with Looney Tunes or Tom and Jerry. However, Sherlock Holmes seems to be doing alright, Batman is going strong, Superman has a new film next year, so I think they should start looking for new franchises.

ЯɘvlveR;23872703 said:yeah, the fluke was in the hiring of nolan. and that's why they need to muster all of that brain power into getting a guy who can helm the entire operation. someone to direct the jl film, as well as oversee the direction of the universe.
i can't see why MoS can't be their "Iron Man" in that it launches the rest of the universe. they don't have to throw all of the heroes a friggin parade in MoS, just mention in someway or fashion would be enough.
The fact that they've had so much trouble getting 2nd tier characters off the ground is one of the reasons I'm sceptical of a "just throw them together" JLA movie. With a brilliant script it could work sure, but if you can only get a Batman trilogy off the ground then how are you going to handle 6 characters at once, 4 of whom need some kind of origin or intro far beyond what any of the Avengers needed, even if WW is a popular Halloween costume.

While I don't agree with introducing her in a Batman film I do agree the WB guys need to start thinking long term if they really want milk the DC universe for all its worth.What I don't understand about WB is why don't they think long term? WW has been gone for so long from the public, they have to reintroduce her to the world. I say in a Batman movie because he's been their most marketed character or something. Then branch her out on her on. I just don't understand their thinking.
I really want to see a Booster Gold or Animal Man movie.![]()
The question for WB is characters like Green Lantern and Wonder Woman, etc. I think Movie Bob hit the nail on the head when he said that Marvel is going to be making a film about a gun toting talking raccoon while WB is wringing their hands over Wonder Woman.
