The Justice League Roster is Set.

Batman.

Superman.

Green Lantern.

Flash.

Wonder Woman.

In 2015 when we get the Justice League movie DC and Warner Bros are desperate to get off the ground, we’ll be getting it without Martian Manhunter, Aquaman, or Hawkman.  Why? Because Warners doesn’t have enough time to shoehorn them into something.  I’m thinking a lot of their plans backfired when Green Lantern was a piece of a shit, so now they are too afraid to get these time-tested characters on screen first (a la Marvel with the Avengers).  Now they’ve pinned all of their hopes on Man of Steel being well-received so that can be the launch pad.  My advice to them: Don’t fuck this up. By the time we got Avengers we got a pretty stacked roster that is only going to expand with each subsequent film.  Why? Because Marvel did it right.  There is no shame in copying their template when BILLIONS of dollars are at stake.   Get more heroes on that team so it can really evoke that Gods of Olympus mentality the Justice League has long held.

At least get Martian Manhunter in there…

Lego Batman & Superman In One Movie Together?

Lego: The Piece of Resistance is going to be a movie.  Legos.  It’s happening.  We are finally hitting that point where anything can be a movie.  I’m anxiously awaiting Crocs: The Movie inspired by Crocs The Shoes now.

But anyway this movie is going to be live action/animation hybrid and is going to star Chris Pratt as the lead character, and Will Arnett as Lego Batman.  Channing Tatum is also in talks to be Lego Superman.  I honestly think this is kind of awesome.  It’s going to be directed by Phil Lord and Christopher Miller (Clone High, Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, 21 Jump Street) and Chris McKay (Robot Chicken).   I can’t think of better people to bring the Lego world to life in a fun way.
