Bustronaut Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 With the success of Guardians of the Galaxy and Rocket Raccoon, might we hope for a We3 movie from DC as a response? Each ticket would come with a pack of tissues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrianS81177 Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 http://variety.com/2014/film/news/dwayne-johnson-shazam-1201286278/ Rock confirms that he'll be in Shazam, but he hasn't decided if he'll be Shazam or Black Adam Personally I think he'd make an awesome Black Adam, and they can always go the "Loki" route with him if they want to milk Rock's star power for multiple movies.

Brian Fowler Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Hell, Black Adam spent years as an anti-hero and member of the JSA in the comics, you could milk that pretty easy. (And eventually have him snap and the entire Justice League have to go to war with him) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cliff Hanger Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 It's REALLY crazy to me that Adam spent a good five-seven years being much more important to the DCU than Billy was. The thing I would most like to see from a Shazam movie, and which we are totally guaranteed not to get, is something in the vein of the Ordway/Manley stories of the 90s. Play up the incongruity of a world stuck in an idealized 1950s and a little boy who becomes the perfect grown-up with the rest of the world and the "horrors" (real and imagined) that the Wizard "protected" them from.

Ligerbusa Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Scoot McNairy wearing green screen socks. Rumors say he's playing The Flash. Henry Cavill was also on set in full Superman gear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bustronaut Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Why would they need to "Lieutenant Dan" his legs? ETA: You'd think they're used match-move markers or something if his legs were going to be replace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pipGofern Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Wait...wait... The guy playing the Flash's real name is Scoot? I can't be the only one who finds that funny. Anyway, if that's who he is, I guess the rumors of the kid playing TV Flash being in the JLA movie were false. Well, that sucks. Especially since if they were going to hire a no-name anyway, why not keep everything in one continuity. I'm sure he could get away from the set for the 3 days it takes to film a glorified cameo. If anybody but Amell shows up as Green Arrow, my nerd rage will be off the charts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bustronaut Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 I'd kinda like them to steal a page from Millar's Captain Marvel knock-off and have Billy actually transform into The Rock, who happens to also be a movie star in the DCU. It'd be kinda Last Action Hero-y, an easy way to explain Cap being a POC, and you don't get Dwayne upstaging the hero of the picture as Black Adam.

RandomAct Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 I am a bit surprised that TV Flash isn't who they are using in the film, just because I thought they would want the continuity. I agree that only Amell should play Ollie at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WholeFnMachine Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 I don't remember where, but I was pretty sure someone went on record saying that the TV & film universes would not crossover. Therefor no Grant as the Flash & no Amell as Ollie. Which sucks massively, especially in Amell's case who has worked his ass off both on screen and promoting the show.

Elsalvajeloco Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 I don't remember where, but I was pretty sure someone went on record saying that the TV & film universes would not crossover. Yeah, Geoff Johns said it on a press tour for "The Flash". In addition, Amell debunked he was appearing in BvS before that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ligerbusa Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Putting TV's Arrow & Flash in the movie JL could restrict what they are allowed to do and the raise the cost of producing the shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cliff Hanger Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Given the character's Nu52 redesign, I think we should all stop to consider the possibility that the Rock might actually be playing Dr. Sivana. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EVA Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Yeah, I don't know why people keep latching onto this idea that the DC tv and film universes would be connected. No one at DC has ever even hinted that it was a possibility, and, in fact, have gone on the record stating otherwise. It's just wishful thinking from fans of the show. Personally, I think having separate TV and film universes is a good idea. You can tell more stories, and different kinds of stories, this way. And people are smart enough to differentiate between the two. That said, I thought some of the leaked casting stuff a while back had Scoot McNairy playing a villain. Some kind of Luthor lackey. Then again, McNairy's horribly rated TV show was just renewed in a surprise move by AMC, which could point to him playing Flash. A few years back, it was widely rumored that they renewed THE KILLING for a 3rd season in order to keep Joel Kinneman under contract in the event that the Robocop reboot made him a big star. Could be a similar motive here, if he's playing Flash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
