		<description>The Justice League movie should not be done until the characters individual films are created. WB is pushing the film to cash in, period.
If Wb were intelligent they would find a way to put Tom Welling in a red cape for a two movie deal, and then do a "Worlds Finest."</description>

		<description>Plain and simple. The studios need to back the fuck off. Almost every comic movie sucks for a reason. It is very telling that this movie would â€œnot be as goodâ€ as x-men. Like that was a fucking gem. LOL ...I laugh every time my kids are watching the animated justice league. The writers are 1000% better than any of the hack screen writers they have butchering comic book adaptations.</description>

		<description>Bryan Singer would be my choice for this movie. In my opinion he is one of the few in Hollywood that "gets it" when it comes to these kind of movies.</description>

		<description>I just got finished watching Juno and I have to say that Jason Reitman is a great director. Passing on JLA was a good move. The way the production is going (Australia is the prime choice to shoot the movie but they're looking for more $$), it doesn't look like it will be made anytime soon. Why waste possibly 2+ years on a movie that will be crappy to begin with?</description>

		<description>I totally agree with Andres From Colombia, Chris Nolan, BY FAR the best director to handle a comic book series, although he's my fav director right now, I'm not sure how he would do Justice League, same goes for Peter Jackson. Maybe Lucas, Spielberg, maaaaybe Michael Bay, but I lost a lot of hope in him after Transformers, granted he directed beautifully with a horrible script, but he still chose to do it after all. Justice League is going to be one of the most EPIC movies we've seen in years, and who was saying X-MEN was epic??? NOT! It's good, but it's not epic, come on guys! I still strongly think that DC/Warner Bros should make a lot more of solo hero movies BEFORE making a JLA movie; the movie'll do a LOT better in all aspects!</description>

		<description>the perfect guy for this project would be chris nolan or peter jackson , this movie needs the best of the best and they really need to develop the other franchises first (flash /green lantern) and use the same actors (bale / routh) , this movie could be greater than the star wars mythos</description>

		<description>Reitman hasn't shown that he has the power to orchestrate such a large, epic film. Sure, he can spill little indie films into magic, but he hasn't shown anything past that. His scope as a director is very small, he needs to do something a little bigger. I have a feeling him and Diablo Cody will be working together for a while...

My dream dream director for this would be PT Anderson. Yea, weird choice. But I think he'd do a fantastic job, let it be sprawling [like it should be], and he'd add a fresh approach to the superhero movie.
Another choice would be James Cameron, but we'd have to wait until 2030 to see it completed with him.

I would LOVE to see a JLA film, as long as the cast is first rate [I'm fine with unknowns, I would prefer unknowns who really play the character as opposed to random A-listers who are cast to boost the box office take]. It also needs a new script, or at least a massive rewrite [notice how Reitman only calls it "fine"].

On the Kingdom Come note, the story is actually not all that great. I love the graphic novel, but I felt somewhat disappointed by the story arc, I felt it was missing something. I do love the epilogue, and Alex Ross is a god in my mind, his treatment of the characters was fantastic, especially with Superman. I'm a huge Batman fan, so maybe I just wanted more of him in it haha.</description>
