The Justice League Article

I thought instead of writing several, separate articles about this one major story, I figured I would write one that sums it all up. So let's jump right on in.

Perspective
Yes, we have all of these wonderful DC/WB announcements coming our way at the moment, but  let's just keep one thing in mind... It's only a movie. Now to many/most of us it represents more than just another multi-million dollar film, but at the end of the day it is all just people playing pretend. So let's keep our heads cool. We can debate and have fun with ideas, but let's not get carried away with it all.

Aborted DC Movie Scripts (Thank goodness they were!)

So we know in the past Warner Bros. has tried, and failed, at several DC property film projects. So below you will find links for a few of these films scripts. Some of you may have heard of the Justice League Movie that was canned only weeks before shooting began. Or the Aborted Superman film that went through a barrage of screen writers, including Kevin Smith, that was going to star Nicholas Cage as Supes, and to be directed by Tim Burton. Or before he co-wrote the 2011 beloved Green Lantern (joke), Michael Goldenberg wrote a Wonder Woman flick. Well I have all of that and more.

Best News Of MOS 2 So Far

Yes, we know the Man of Steel sequel will feature Batman, Wonder Woman, Lex Luthor, and Alfred. But as awesome as that all is, the latest confirmed news about MOS 2 is the return of composer Hans Zimmer.

Hans has done it all, and is THE name in CBM films today. I contend he should have been nominated for an Oscar for his work in Man of Steel. I actually bought the deluxe version of the MOS soundtrack...it's so good!

And yes Zimmer had previously scored the Christopher Nolan Dark Knight Trilogy, and had his doubts about returning to the character. But it is official, Zimmer's epic score will continue in MOS!


Let me know what you think about this. Did you like the MOS score? Comment below. Thanks for reading.

Jesse Eisenburg as Lex Luthor

So with the mixed reactions following the Eisenburg as Lex Luthor casting, I thought I would give some of my examples as to why this is a very good choice. Now obviously many were hoping for a Brian Cranston (I liked John Hamm myself) for the role, but thinking about this character realistically in today’s culture, I believe this casting decision makes loads of sense. Let’s see why.

How Nolan Saved & Destroyed the DCU

So as we know, WB/DC is far behind Marvel in the cinematic universe. We also know that director Christopher Nolan gave us an amazing Batman trilogy. However, as good as those films were, they also would become the demise of DC/WB with developing their own shared DCU.  So let’s take a look as to why.

How To Obtain Marvel Status

Now, I have mentioned this thorughout several posts. But, I figured since I have only just touched on this subject, why not do a full spread on the issue. We all know that when it comes to the newly established CBM universes, Marvel has the head start. And besides them, there are 3 other major players who want to have the success that Marvel is having. So let's look at what those other companies (Mainly WB) can do to have not only the financial, but critical success the Marvel films are producing.

New Batman Film Titles

So, we all know that WB has rebooted the character with Batfleck; and that means more stand alone Batman films to come. My question is, what do they title the future films? Given the Batman franchise has used quite a few already. So in this article, I will attempt to give the best possible title(s) for the next solo Bat’s film…5 to be exact.
