DC sure is on point when it comes to casting.

Hmmm i'll be honest I could be cynical and point out they're getting paid but I like that Johns, as their liason within DC itself, seems to have got them excited about the characters they will be portraying. He's a busy man, for sure.
Not really ever been counted as a Justice League film.
And believe is after both JL 1/2
I wouldn't be surprised if they are rethinking it. It's not like they are locked into it at this point.

Shazam is New Line and rumored to be "kinda sort connected" to the other DC films. I think Shazam depends entirely on the reception to BvS and SS and how they want to pivot after those two releases.

The best part about this, is you know that Fisher made his own shirt!
And don't think posted, but we got a better look at Aquaman

I thought it was for that Potter spin-off movie?

Personally I'm just glad he got one. It's bad enough he's not blond. I don't think I would be ready for a Justice League with three members with long hair... It would feel more like a rock band. =/
It's okay. Not sure why that matters though.
Anyone think we would see a Legion of Superheroes movie anytime soon?
They're like the X-Men of DC (not saying they're mutants or anything, but they have a huge cast of characters who sort of operate in their own world without much interference with the rest of the DCU)
They could introduce Superboy, Supergirl, Lobo that way in a smoother fashion.

Nah. Legion of Superheroes is basically Andrew Kreisberg/Greg Berlanti's version of the Justice League. They actually tried to call the show "JLA" but DC didn't let them. By the way, if you haven't heard it already, check out Kreisberg's interview with Kevin Smith. It's really insightful to the creators of the show and is a fun listen.
Personally I think Superboy would fit great in a Teen Titans movie, Supergirl in a Justice League movie, and Lobo could just be thrown in any Superman movie. Hell, I could see an introduction to Lobo in MoS II's opening sequence with Superman fighting him in a sort of "a day in a life" kind of scene similar to beginning of The Dark Knight.

I got confused because I thought you said they were making a LoS show but did you mean Legends of Tomorrow?
Major Gripex

lol yeah I'm dumb. Meant Legends, not Legion of Superheroes... Now I'm mad LoS isn't a CW show.
Grant on Ezra
He shouldn't have had to do this. People getting offended on his behalf need to chill.
Grant on Ezra
Disgusting that he's had to do this. I really hate people sometimes. No need to call someone gay or tranny.

I really don't understand that mentality.
Why can't people just enjoy both?
It's pretty obvious that if there were a flash movie with Grant, it would either be completely divorced from the tv show, or too tied to the tv show and wouldn't work with Justice League.
I like Grant, more than Ezra, but I understand that there'd be confusion if they made these movies. That and the CW drama components belong on TV as a serial format. The story telling style is completely different.
What I see is two attempts at flash, and two properties being great. Even moreso there's tons of potential for crossovers because Flash is THE multiverse DC character. I'd be ecstatic if there were a Superman tv show and movie because I'd get two offerings, two different takes on a character I love.

I'll admit, Geoff Johns describing the film in the same words one describes the TV show, raised a minor concern. Both stem from the New 52; naturally you have parallels. But, say, I don't want The Flash origin film to be about clearing his father's name.

This is how I see it as well. We get two potentially good concurrent incarnations of the same character. If the film is successful and the show doesn't lose its steam, it will be a crazy good time to be a Flash fan. Last decade we'd be lucky just to have a movie. Scratch that, we'd be lucky just to get a cartoon.

These things go in circles.
I'm willing to bet that at least one of these chuckleheads is now defending Grant and shitting on Ezra. If it wasn't pathetic, it would be amazing.

Two decades ago you got a show that lasted one season.
Fans these days don't appreciate shit.

Found this gif in the SS thread and I really kinda like it. The only bad thing about it is that you only see Rope Guy's comic form for like half a second.
Poor Grant, he shouldn't have even bothered to respond to the haters out there. As the Elbert Hubbard quote goes: "Never explain; Your friends do not need it, and your enemies wont believe you anyway". Though he was probably forced to by production so there is that.Grant on Ezra

Outspoken fandoms are a fucking embarrassment 90% of the time.
Gotta love the internet. Jesus.
He signed a multi picture deal. So I'm assuming yes he'll most likely be in the future Batman movies.
Although, I'm hoping they save him for the second film. I'd like to see a Clayface or Court of Owls detective thriller for the first solo film.

Hi, I'm nortonff. I spend my life going into threads to say that I don't care about the topic of the thread. It's a really good use of my time.
Nice. I have high hopes for him as the Joker. Great actor.
Batman, much like Spider-man, has so many great second stringer villains. They can have a top tier villains like Joker and do other villains like Clay Face, Killer Croc, or Man-Bat justice as secondary antagonists.
That's what I'm hoping for, anyway.
I'm holding out for Clay Face and The Ventriloquist/Scarface.
I know I may be late on this, but we're getting a series of Suicide Squad statues.
I guess Katana & Killer Croc are gonna live since they were amongst the first 6 statues announced. Kinda lines up with that one image of the 6 I was guessing would survive the movie sans Joker (Harley Quinn, Deadshot, Katana, Killer Croc, Captain Boomerang, & Rick Flag). Though it is interesting that they're actually gonna stick with the full Captain Boomerang name.

Wonder Woman (two weeks before/after):
June 9 - The Mummy, World War Z 2
June 16 - Kingsman 2
June 23 - Wonder Woman
June 30 - Despicable Me 3, Uncharted
July 7 - Spider-Man
Justice League (same window):
November 3 - Thor
November 10 - Nothing of note
November 17 - JL, Dr. Seuss' How the Grinch Stole Christmas
Nothing of note until Episode 8 on December 15
In summer, your blockbuster will be forgotten in a week or two when the next 46 blockbusters are released, all competing for your audience's attention. November is slightly quieter (at least for the moment) and so WB probably figures that allows for Justice League to get more time in the spotlight than it otherwise would in the crowded summer movie schedule.
Yep, Justice League will clean house with that window.

Maybe. After Minions, I'm thinking the wind might have fallen out of that particular ship's sails.

These DCEU merch is going to destroy my wallet. Probably going to pick up Joker and Harley. Deadshot, Katana and Boomerang depending on how much I like them in the movie.
It can still change
Same here, man. Harley, Katana, Deadshot, & Joker are already gunning for my wallet.
