They're awfully optimistic about Flash, aren't they? It doesn't have a cast or script yet, so I seriously doubt it's going to be in theathers by 2006. And as for Wonder Woman, I somehow doubt that if Joss hasn't been officially signed yet, he's going to be at all. I have hope for Batman and Superman, but I don't know how many other of their "big icons" will actually make it. |

Ha!
And does DC really feel Flash would be a bigger draw than Green Lantern? I just think GL would lend itself to a better movie. At least better special effects. _________________ Official Prepared Paranoid of:

Really? I didn't vote for it, only because I cant imagine Hollywood doing anything other than fucking it up royally. I really treasure the layered nuances of Kabuki, but if they turned it into Catwoman? *shudder*
I was nice to see it on the list though, and I'm sure you wouldn't mind the bank that would come from selling an option or two...  _________________ ________________________________

The Kabuki film is at Fox right now.
I've been re-selling the option to them every year and a half for the last six years while we develop it.
I've been heavily involved in it from the beginning.
So rest assured that I'm not going to let it turn into Cat Woman.
I didn't just sell it to them and write it off.
I've been employed by Fox to work on the film this entire time in several capacities.
Besides writing the treatment for them, my credits include Visual Designer, and Co-Producer among others.
I even got to work with John Sayles on it for a while.
So please feel comfortable in voting for it  |

Quote: | "There's a feeling among fans that DC is finally getting it right," says Rob Worley of the Web site Comics2Film.com. "The movies used to look like they were made by studio executives who knew nothing about the comic books. Now they're getting back to the original stories." |
What exactly leads him to this conclusion???
What movies have come out lately that were DC properties that have been good? Last movie of theirs was Catwoman...and before that???
They seem to be giving DC movies a lot of credit sight unseen (does Marvel get this type of consideration?). _________________ dEnny
