DC Movies - To Infinity and Beyond

Wow, that is awesome.

Wait. Wait. Wait.

There's going to be a Zatanna movie? Seriously?

(It is at this moment I am saddened TBBS doesn't have a headbang emoji.)

Well, they're starting work on one, I'm not sure if it's an absolute guarantee at the moment.
 
They need to stop announcing movies that are early in the development stages, because a lot of them have never come to fruition.

WB need to just let the film makers do their dam jobs.

It's not about WB. The majority of movies under development in any Hollywood studio never make it to production. That's what development is for -- to try out various possible projects and see which ones work well enough to be worth making.

Tell that to the BvS, SS & JL Theatrical releases, which were all about the WB execs chopping up movies and clearly to the harm of the products in terms of BvS & JL.

Which is the opposite end of the process from what we're talking about, which is development. Aragorn was complaining about the announcement of projects early in development that might never even get approved for filming in the first place.

Holy shit.

Weird thought creeping into the forefront of my mind: he's the third Bond to be part of DC-based media. George Lazenby played fake Jor-El on "Superboy" and, of course, Timothy Dalton is Niles Caulder on "Doom Patrol". Now I wonder who Daniel Craig will eventually play.

A bit of a stretch perhaps, but The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen was originally published in the USA by the America’s Best Comics’ imprint of DC comics. And Sean Connery played Allan Quartermain in the film version

Now DC has to send someone over to Eon to play Bond.

And everyone will be in for a shock when it's Matt Bomer instead of Henry Cavill.

I could actually see that.

Yeah, it's a stretch, especially considering America's Best Comics was a sub-label of Wildstorm established shortly before Jim Lee sold Wildstorm to DC. And Alan Moore said he'd honor his contract with Wildstorm on the condition he would not have to deal with DC directly. The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen is also creator-owned, which is why Moore eventually convinced Kevin O'Neill to move to another publisher after being fed up with DC and WB.

So, yeah, not sure if LXG should count as a DC-based movie.

It could've been four -- Adam West was offered the role of Bond in 1970 and turned it down because he felt Bond should be British. Oh, and Terence Stamp and Henry Cavill were Bond candidates too.

So DC gets the Bonds, while Marvel gets the Holmeses (Ian McKellen, Robert Downey Jr., Benedict Cumberbatch, James D'Arcy -- oh, and Jeremy Brett was in an episode of The Incredible Hulk) and Watsons (Ben Kingsley, Jude Law, Martin Freeman).

Well, DC's actually had more Holmes actors -- Alan Napier, Frank Langella, Matt Frewer (in Watchmen), Henry Cavill, Jeremy Irons, Peter Capaldi (upcoming in The Suicide Squad). No Watson actors, though, as far as I can tell.
