IESB:
“The cast for Justice League is mediocre, the execs know it’s mediocre, it’s going to go down to wire on this one, this movie cold be huge but right now it’s plagued with a couple of big issues and the WGA strike isn’t making things easier,” our source tell us.
So what’s the final verdict on Justice League? I was having dinner this evening when I got a call from one of our moles over at Warner Bros. who told us, “Justice League has been pushed back to at least April or May and possibly a start date as late as June or July…that is of course if the movie doesn’t get scrapped altogether.”
This is the only good news that was left for the satchel of mistakes known as Justice League. If they put this garbage in the can and return to the drawing board - we can hope again that perhaps, one day we will see a quality JL picture. This movie’s progress has infuriated fans at every step like no movie I have posted about (save for maybe G.I. Joe) and it is glorious that the people at the helm may have the sense and foresight to stop this trainwreck.
i hope this news proves true.this crap has been a mess since they announced it as a live-action movie.i too say go the Batman Vs Superman route & do a cinematic version of Frank Miller’s The Dark Knight Returns. that’s assuming Miller licensed the rights out. i can see Rutger Hauer as the gritty aged Batman. cannot yet think of who would play Supes. i do not think ageing Routh would work. strangely i can picture Pierce Brosnan as an aged Superman. if he buffed up a bit. Before i get any snide comments, picture Brosnan’s mug with a Superman haircut like Routh’s. his non-fakesounding American accent is just fine too.
as for the other JLA’ers, i say stick with the original plan & film Joss Whedon’s Wonder Woman. who cares if most of it takes place in WWII. she’s a fucking Amazon & they age well. i believe there was mention that the script ending has her in the here & now. let Ryan Reynolds do The Flash (especially if the Namor movie has been canned) as intended & go from there as far as bringing in the other league members. done now.
