Hope it's good! i am very skeptical after how Zack did with Sucker Punch. It had great visuals, but horrible story.

Yeah if Zod is in this, then im pretty sure Brainiac is gonna be the badguy in JLA, I cant really see Darkseid because Thanos is already gonna be in Avengers 2 and Brainiac combined with Lex like the Cadmus Crisis in JLU would be a great story and different enough from the classic HOLY SHIT ITS AN ALIEN INVASION! WE MUST JOIN FORCES!

Shared with who? Green Lantern was poor and the Batman will be rebooted after Nolan and Bale are finished.

So bearing that in mind, sure it should be that Man of Steel will have 'easter eggs' that refer to other characters in DC. Because it can't be a shared universe if it doesn't share things with existing films.

Either way, if MoS is a flop then this will all be moot. I hope it isn't a flop though, of course.

JDUKE25 - 7/10/2012, 4:13 PM
@ekrolo2 yeah, I would be in favor of Brainiac or White Martians as the first villain, if it were an alien invasion time deal.

Awesome news. Good work WayWay.

I'm pretty certain that MOS will be successful. World's most recognizable superhero, some A-listers, possible 3D and Chris Nolan.

Shared universes are overrated. Give us a great Superman movie, and for the love of god don't shoe horn anything in. That is what killed IM2.

Hoping this will do well, and that the DC Cinematic Universe will finally be under way.

It is about time we got something out of WB that is not Bat related tbh

@Paul Don't forget Snyder's visuals. Yeah, if it makes anything less than $500-600 million I'll be shocked.

It only takes a second or two to speak a character's name, the same amount of time to put an article in the paper someone is reading, and the same amount of time to put Keystone City or Coast City or Gotham City on the map.

I hope they try something other than an alien invasion for a JLA film. It will add more fuel to the inevitable Avengers v JLA arguments.

We all remember what kicked off Avengers. Short scene with Nick Fury, SHIELD threads through the movie beforehand. Simple stuff.

@BrownandYellowWolvie - Snyder didn't write MoS, Goyer did.

Well, I hope this is not a rumor.

BruceWayneNewton - 7/10/2012, 4:26 PM
if they ever had the stones to make a JLA movie with the right story, it would blow away the avengers simply due to the superior characters(not including aquaman)in the JLA

If this ain't true, I'm gonna find Zack Snyder, tie the long hair on his head to the short hair on his ass and kick him down the street!

with a PERFECT superman movie, no need to have a shared universe. AND if only AND they decide to make a JL movie, then it needs have the industry first $500 million dollar budget an hire the best of everything and go all in cuz the numbers on previous films dont lie, it will make billions.

I just want to see a Superman fight on par to the animated series or the DCU online trailer where the fighting results in buildings being damaged and destrucion to parts of Metropolis with Supes and whoever he's fighting.

This is sink or swim for D.C.

Either they get this Superman reboot off the ground along with their shared universe as well as Marvel did with Iron man... or they'll be well and truly f**ked.

It was a holy miracle Marvel managed to make 4 entertaining separate superhero films and combine them together for 1 mega movie.

Considering D.C's mismanagement with all it's movies outside of Nolan's films, I'm more anxious than excited.

It'll be fun to watch how this turns out though.

Everytime I watch Matrix Revolutions, the end fight between Neo and Mr. Smith, breaking through buldings, flying through the air and fighting as well as the impact of them punching eachother at the same time causing wondows to shatter...thats how i would imagine a Superman fight... and dare i say it...a fight for a Dragonball Z movie, should be.

I just jizzed a little bit.

Do it you bastards. Make it right and introduce a shared universe. Remember how Green Lantern had Ammanda Waller. . . .

WB don't take a crap on your comic book properties like you did with Jonah Hex, Catwoman, Green Lantern, ect ect. It's ok to copy Marvel. We want heart and balls from our superheroes.

"DC and Warner Brothers are looking to announce their next slate of superhero franchises within the next month or so"
