These Cena rumors feel like the usual DC casting rumors. That is, fancasting people repeat a lot while WB brass quietly courts someone completely different for the role.
Ditto on Rock leaving Black Adam. To think the first Shazam movie has to happen without Black Adam because this cat wants to sit on the role for God knows how many years while he does a bunch of other things.

What difference does it make how busy his schedule is?
I don't understand what you're tying to say.

It's worse in higher quality because you notice their cups have the JL logo and only Gal thought to point it towards the camera.
(And Affleck's look of "Can I leave yet?")
I dont remember any rumors blaming the Rock for any of the production delays

Shazam always had a 2019 date, they got the rock long ago just to lock him down. He makes movies 24/7 because he loves it, he has been waiting for black adam to start and it was new line and WB decision to hold off on putting black adam in the movie. Nothing to do with his schedule.
Since it's been a slow weekend, and I love shameless shilling
I did a ranking of all 30 DC Original Animated Movies in honor of the 10th anniversary of the line

Cool but man I disagree with a good chunk of that list. I agree with number 30 though, fuck that movie.

It's ok to admit you have bad taste
I have the tastiest taste that has ever existed.
What would your list be or say Top 5?

Top 3 look good. Superman vs. The Elite doesn't get enough hype, IMO.

I dont have time to list all 30 right now but I'll do my top 5.
5. Wonder Woman
4. Superman Vs The Elite
3. Batman: Under the Red Hood
2. Justice League: Crisis on Two Earths
1. The Dark Knight Returns (they released it all stand-alone so it counts
)

Same, have them all on blu-ray. Batman and Harley was fun, just like an extended TAS/JL episode with a big focus on comedy rather than drama or action.
Same here, all on Blu-Ray. Dunno why I keep buying them when they all show up on Netflix in what seems like no time, but maybe it's a year later, I dunno.

Happy to see Crisis on Two Earths get some love. Always seemed like people ignored it for others.
I appreciated how they handled Batman on the team. Dude was hopelessly outclassed and constantly got his ass kicked, but managed to prevail through sheer grit. Hit a nice balance between Bat-god and what you'd imagine a dude without powers on a metahuman team would be.

That doesn't sound right, not that I don't believe you, but that just don't sound right

I'm fine with your Top 5... sans The Dark Knight Returns

Its the tastiest top 5 you have ever seen. TDKR ftw.
Remind me to never eat at your house if that's your taste!
Also Mark Hughes on Forbes wrote an article that pretty much expresses my thoughts on the DC/WB rumors over the last well year and how poorly the internet is trained to react

Photoshop. Affleck plays on PC.
Can't shake that muscle memory.

He signed on to be black Adam in 2014, new line and WB wanted shazam movie to be released April 2019. So he filled his schedule up to make movies till they needed him. Here we are 2017 with a director picked in July and script turned in in August and we have yet to even cast shazam or Billy. And the problem is that rock is to busy to be in the movie? He can be, they are the studio, if he's not available they move on to someone else, it happens all the time.
After watching the first season of Sense 8, I'd be down to see the Wachoskis direct a DC project.
God damn that was a 5/5 season
>likes vidya
>now working with Sony
>Looks like Joel from TLOU
hmmmmmmm

You saw my full list on the Discord chat but here's my Top 5
5. Batman: The Dark Knight Returns Parts 1 and 2
4. Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox
3. Batman: Under the Red Hood
2. Wonder Woman
1. Justice League: The New Frontier
Dark Knight Returns gets a lot of love from me for the voice talent and how it actually looks better than the original comic, but suffers from not having the narrative monologues be part of the animated adaptation. Will need to watch Killing Joke and Batman & Harley Quinn one day, but I'd also put Return of the Caped Crusaders as an honorary mention.

Your list is bad and you should feel bad. No way is any movie other than Superman Doomsday the worst. No fucking way. Also, TDKR is miles better than the tepid adaptation that was Year One. I will give you Gotham Knights being horrible, if anything was going to put up a fight for the bottom spot, it would be that one.
Anyhow top 10 (order is flexlible):
1. Justice League: New Frontier
2. All Star Superman
3. Crisis on Two Earths
4. Wonder Woman
5. Gods and Monsters
6. Apocalypse
7. The Dark Knight Returns (complete)
8. DOOM
9. Under the Red Hood
10. First Flight
Been saying this for a while. They are potentially WB/DC ace in the hole imo. Huge talent in their stable but they haven't been brought up once in any rumors iirc. I wonder if their bridge is burned from too many flops?

New Frontier is ineligible on account of being an outright bastardization of the wildly superior comic, IMO. This list is baaaaad.
Always surprised at the bad tastes some of you folks have in this thread...
To follow-up from my Forbes article from yesterday, a little fun with social media...
So someone decided to actually reach out to the actress

Oh man, I hope they aren't calling themselves journalists.
Around and around we go
Though not sure if a rumor. Just seems like a random note to drop in article

Wonder if that's from a source or is it building off their mention for possibly returning from to the Flash the same day they were fired from Han Solo?
Probably nothing, but Kodi Smit Mcphee (kid that plays Nightcrawler) posted an Alex Ross Joker image on his Instagram.

He's super lanky and has the face for a younger Joker.

Doubt they're they start casting this early. Probably not even greenlighted yet.

Gavin OConnor is a good pick. In the brief period between Affleck and Reeves directing Batman, his name was on the shortlist for it. While he was the third best after Reeves and Fede Alvarez, he would've been solid, and here I like him over the other rumored SS2 directors.
Yeah pretty solid line-up
But we'll find out soon enough since imagine would have to start filming early next year.
God please bring LM back. I just hope they tone down Ezra a bit. So far he seems a bit too eccentric, almost like Lex.
