maybe this will be the one that starts to kill the superhero movie genre - dug Jul 10, 19:37 7
- If it means no more Superman movies, I could almost be on board with this. -- nm - Spawn Jul 10, 19:47 4
  - hells yeah -- nm - Epiphany Jul 10, 19:55 2
    - et tu, pippy?! -- nm - dug Jul 10, 19:56 1
      - Superman sucks ass - Bryan was thinking with his..well you know. - Epiphany Jul 10, 20:23
  - Lex Luthor has so many more real estate schemes to be thwarted it'll make your head spin! -- nm - dug Jul 10, 19:48
- *shush you* -- nm - Remlik Jul 10, 19:44
- ...for DC -- nm - Stephen Jul 10, 19:39
How fast is Seth Rogan going to gain the weight back? -- nm - lileve Jul 10, 19:30 2
- that was Green Hornet. keep up. -- nm - dug Jul 10, 19:31 1
  - Oh. -- nm - lileve Jul 10, 19:31
Martin Campbell to direct with a rumored budget of $200 mill -- nm - Remlik Jul 10, 19:20 21
- !!!!! - ty97 Jul 10, 19:27 16
  - I have to disagree with David somewhat...Green Lantern is DC's Iron Man....massive story possibilites of the rise and fall and rise of a hero. -- nm - Remlik Jul 10, 19:44 1
    - I had never heard of Iron Man before the movie. I think if the movie is good, it can/will be a hit regardless of the familiarity the public has. -- nm - Subversive Jul 10, 19:51
  - $180 mill of that is to get him to do a nude scene. -- nm - nubby Jul 10, 19:29 5
    - He does that for $1.99 -- nm - ty97 Jul 10, 19:31 4
      - well if you got it, flaunt it. - Epiphany Jul 10, 19:33 3
        
        If I were Ryan Reynold, I'd be laying on a beach chair on the corner stark naked with a sign - ty97 Jul 10, 19:33 2
        
        you'd be a gazillionaire -- nm - Epiphany Jul 10, 19:36
        
        You'd have to fight Matthew McConaughy for the corner spot. -- nm - nubby Jul 10, 19:34
  - No, it's not. But they think they can follow the Star Trek path since it's kind of sci-fi flavored. -- nm - David Jul 10, 19:28 7
    - I think an Iron Man analogy is more apt. -- nm - Remlik Jul 10, 19:46
    - I wish them luck. - ty97 Jul 10, 19:31 4
      - I disagree with your IM. This has potential. -- nm - Spawn Jul 10, 19:33 2
        
        The producers certainly agree with you -- nm - ty97 Jul 10, 19:38 1
        
        As a comic book reader, this was always on my top 5 movie wishlist. The tech has only recently got to the point it can handle it. -- nm - Spawn Jul 10, 19:41
      - *dirty thoughts* -- nm - nubby Jul 10, 19:33
    - Psychoanalysts must make a killing in Hollywood. -- nm - nubby Jul 10, 19:30
- It's like throwing money off a cliff. -- nm - David Jul 10, 19:23 3
  - Ryan Reynolds was the best choice for possibly making this work. - Spawn Jul 10, 19:25 2
    - That's like saying Jeff Francoeur was the best choice as a Mets outfielder. - David Jul 10, 19:27 1
      - I don't think he gets quite the chick butts in the seats, though. -- nm - Spawn Jul 10, 19:28
And Justin Timberlake is Aquaman. -- nm - Spawn Jul 10, 19:17 2
- Who hasn't been Aquaman by now? -- nm - David Jul 10, 19:18 1
  - It truly is the consolation prize that nobody wants. -- nm - Spawn Jul 10, 19:18
Anyone ever been a Marvel *and* DC superhero before? -- nm - David Jul 10, 19:15 7
- Jack Kirby -- nm - peglegpete Jul 10, 19:23 1
  - Joe Simon! -- nm - Remlik Jul 10, 19:49
- hmmmm.....James Marsden comes closest I think. Cyclops and then Lois's BF in Superman. *I think* -- nm - Remlik Jul 10, 19:19 4
  - Yeah, that is the best I can come up with. If Singer had made Superman work, *he* would be a Marvel and DC superhero. -- nm - Spawn Jul 10, 19:25 3
    - Batman and dude from Terminator (not Marvel but close) -- nm - Beaker Jul 10, 19:27 2
      - You're just naming random film roles. That's like Hugh Jackman for Wolverine and...that vampire/Frankenstein thing. -- nm - David Jul 10, 19:27 1
        
        Faran Tahir: Iron Man and Star Trek! - Spawn Jul 10, 19:30
