Apparently, all we needed to do to get some decent script spoilers for the planned WB Justice League movie was to say we had the first 14 pages of the script. Or at least, that seems to be the way this has panned out over the past week. Spoilers after the jump!
It all begun last week apparently, after the “14 pages of the script” were leaked to the internet. The information revealed is not relevant, as a scooper for the UGO Movie Blog helped rectify the matter by telling them what really happens in the first 14 pages. WB confirmed the original script was a fake, but weren’t able to do anything to stop the UGO scoop.
Apparently, the movie will start off watching Superman, Aquaman, Wonder Woman, The Flash, Green Lantern and Martian Manhunter on a rooftop attending a funeral. Batman is absent due to the media attention that the JL is under, as it’s a high profile funeral. The Bats turns up afterwards. Each of the superheroes is wearing black as well, with Superman sporting a black on black look, rather than his traditional red and blue costume.
The scene then jumps to Barry Allen and his wife Iris in a superhero-styled restaurant, watching Wonder Woman on the TV six days prior to the funeral.
I’ll skim the rest, as it’s very much what we’ve heard already. Batman is watching Allen eat lunch using his Brother Eye satellite. The satellites focus then swaps to other various members of the league. Alfred then notifies Bruce that he has a meeting with businessman Maxwell Lord. However, once the pair leaves the cave, Brother Eye begins to look at John Johns, the Martian Manhunters human alias, as the satellite is accessed remotely.
I won’t spoil anything else for you, but if you want to hear some more, then head on over to the UGO site (link below). And, as always, I’ll have some comments up on my blog shortly here.
