As long as JLA don't turn out like RISES, it'll be pure gold!

Bring on DARKSEID :P

God i hope not Lindelof is so over hyped just like JJ Abrams.

Lindelof sucks. He'll make everybody in the movie question their state and have daddy issues, while ending the movie with unresolved plot points and stupid cliffhangers.

People know nothing about Lindelof. It's all blind hate.

Go listen to his filmaid discussion on slashfilm.

And Dark Knight Rises rocks, hope JLA is half as good. IMO, Avengers was not.

Just get Zack Snyder to helm this thing. From what we're all seeing from Man of Steel, he's nailed the tone and the character and the feeling of realistic fantasy with Superman. Everything looks epic, so why not do Justice League?

He gave a good answer and I agree, MOS will set the tone for any future JL film. It all has to feel like it fits, like these superheroes all exist in the same world. Once that's established you can move on.

All of these different tones exist in the world in which we live. I live a very different life, a very different existence, from a soldier, a crack addict, an astronaut, a cop, a teacher, a priest, a farmer, a prepubescent girl. I, my family, and my friends might be considered goofballs to some, while others might think we need to lighten up. The greatest conflicts in life often bring different people together and are what bridges the divide between people with such wide differences in their own realities. I understand what Lindelof is saying, but stark contrasts in tone can often lead to something more interesting than bringing together things which are already similar.

You still haven't addressed the overly contrived plots and the arcs that go nowhere in everything Lindelof produces. Sure, you like him and i don't, but seriously? "virgins living in their mommy's basement", I find it hard to believe Lindelof can walk, with you hanging on between his legs so tight.

@crashrendar

agree. I think that would be the perfect route to go.

Just because a movie has a realistic tone doesnt mean there cant be EPIC and awesome fantastical stuff.

How to solve the Justice League problem?

Step one: keep this hack far from it!

All you have to do is reboot Batman, keep the other characters, Green Lantern, The Flash, Wonder Woman, etc all in the Man of Steel universe, keep it as real as that world is. Let them hear about one another, but give the heroes their own cities to worry about, their own little universe, if you will, to save. Then they all come together for one common bad guy threatening the world. It is too easy.

Do not put Darkseid in the very first movie. He should be saved until much later.

Presence1 - 5/15/2013, 8:08 AM
Love or hate'em, he's exactly right. I personally don't think a successful Man of Steel movie will necessarily mean Flash/Wonder Woman/Justice League movies being made right away. I think it's more likely Warner Bros will just want Man of Steel sequels, a Man of Steel trilogy just like Batmans Dark Knight trilogy before it.

While I'm not his biggest fan, he is right and I do think that MOS is the right tone for their JLA film and other DC superheroes. I think Batman can work great in that world, this way we get to see a very different Batman with other stories (because: supernatural involved heavily) and some interesting villains. As for GL/Flash/WonderWoman/Aquaman/MartianManhunter; it'd work great too. They're fantastic superheroes and just incredibly powerful. They're the biggest there are and it time for them to rule the screen. WB should attract good writers and directors and give them the time they need.

After MOS hits theaters, I expect to hear that they got WW and The Flash in development.

Keep it in the real world like Man of Steel. There's not only Metropolis, but Gotham, Central City, Paradise Island, etc. All in the same world. It's not that hard. Fantastic superheroes in a real world environment.

Lol at Rises being better than Avengers. Sure, if you like your superhero movie being based around everybody except your superhero, I guess it's a masterpiece. "YAY! That new Batman movie was awesome!!! Too bad Batman wasn't in it."

The Dark Knight trilogy is like getting amazing forplay, followed by some of the best sex ever, then having your chick tell you she was born a man right as you're bout to nut. TDKR is a massive case of blue balls.

I really hope he doesn't have anything to do with the JL screenplay.
Hopefully, they can get a great writer like Mark Waid to help with the plot of the movie.

I have to agree w/ thewonderer

I didn't think Avengers was as good as Rises, and I didn't think Rises was as good as TDK, BUT I thought Rises was the one w/ the most references to the various comics it pulled from.

I am sure Man Of Steel will be a definite hit....
and Damon Lindelof has a point....
