Justice League of America Movie

Is this thing on?

It sounds like the JLA movie has been cancelled. Really upsetting; not just because I love the series, and love superhero movies, but also because I bought this cool domain and put this site together.

Oh well. According to Adam Brody ( who was slated to play The Flash ), part of the decision to put this project on indefinite hold was financial; with the possibility of a new Superman movie, DC doesn’t want to compete with itself. That makes sense.

It’s really too bad, and ultimately I think the Avengers movie alluded to at the end of Ironman is a better idea; have the first of each of the superheroes’ movies end with them being “called up” to the major group. You go, Marvel.

( Apparently Ironman / Tony Stark has a cameo in the Incredible Hulk movie due out soon. I imagine so will Nick Fury. The Hulk is part of the Avengers ).

Sad days indeed.

The writers’ strike have put the JLA movie onto hiatus.

Warner Bros. Studios said Thursday that, due largely to the ongoing film and TV writers strike, it will delay production on its planned “Justice League of America” movie. According to Variety, the script — based on the DC comics — cannot have necessary rewrites because of the current strike.

How bad could it be?

Are you frightened about rumours of the casting for the Justice League America movie? It’s not for release until 2010 according to IMDB, so they’re still working on fleshing out the cast.

Check out this petition, and convince yourself it’s going to change minds.

If it’s not cast yet

How is this possible?

Columbus Short not to be Green Lantern

“I think there comes a point in an actor’s career when he decides what type of actor you want to be,” explained the 25-year-old, who appears in This Christmas next month alongside Chris Brown. “[Each actor] decides: I want to do commercial movies, but do I want to go this way? Or do I want to go that way?”

He turned it down?!
