Hello and I'm The Comic Critic,
Now to get started, when most of us hear the name Uwe Boll, like many other film directors such as Joel Schumacher I guess you can say most of us have a sinking feeling in our heart. Uwe Boll is known for his crazy over the top Asylum styled films. Mostly he is the guy that is hated by film critics and fans everywhere. He also has a load of video game based films on his plate so you can count that as experience also. But we have never seen a higher level Uwe Boll film before. You can not just say Michael Bay is Uwe Boll with money, both these directors as you know have very much different styles of film making. Out of all this I prefer Uwe Boll, he reminds me of the kid inside wanting to make films for people to enjoy. These are films that remind me of my teenage years creating skateboarding films with my friends at the skate park and adding cool effects like explosions and all this crazy stuff. He is basically despite his bad record with some films, the child prodigy of an up and coming film director at heart. We can not blame him for his films, like most directors he has a vision but it has not been fulfilled yet. He has a university diploma, he owns his own movie studio, this is a man who wants to rise to the top. He needs much more of a challenge when it comes to film making. Which is why I think Justice League would be his great big budget film for everyone to see how truly inspired he is.
As quoted from Uwe Boll himself, he wants to make good entertaining films that are solid and have a good base to them. So why not a film of the super hero genre such as Justice League. May I remind some comic book fans that you always don't need a lot of experience in this genre to start making something extraordinary. Zack Snyder started off as an unknown to one of his first feature films Dawn of The Dead. Would you believe a few years from then he would be directing a film based on one of our most iconic superheroes of all time? No one would have ever believed it at such a time then. From Sam Raimi known for his horror films such as Army of Darkness to directing Spider-man,no one would have ever believed that would have ever happened. Even the same counts for Joss Whedon who made science fiction television shows with a major fan base till today, directing The Avengers.
Despite some of Boll's lower budget film, this is the perfect chance for him to expand on his film making and script building. With the right amount of money given to him and freedom of creative power this man could create possibly one of the greatest superhero films next to Joss Whedon's The Avengers. I have recently watched one of Uwe Boll's better films in my opinion which is called Rampage. It follows a man going on a killing spree fuelled by anger and hatred against humanity. I would have never believed it was directed by him at first because it was that good of an action film. If he can expand on a level similar to that film we can have another potential winner on our hands from him.
If we have Nolan producing the film and helping Uwe Boll along the way it would make the dream project even better. The main casting would be as followed on this list.
Batman/Bruce Wayne - Benjamin Walker
Walker would make a great young and upcoming Bruce Wayne. We have seen a older side of him played by Bale so how about a new fresh one we have not seen yet. Walker recently started in Abraham Lincoln:Vampire Hunter,despite some problems with the film I found his acting great. It would be a perfect dream casting.
Superman/Clark Kent - Gerard Butler
This guy is an amazing action star and we all know how awesome he can be when he comes up on the screen. From the film 300 to his other exciting characters. He has demonstrated he can play a strong figure, a symbol to all. So lets give him a chance people.
Green Lantern/Hal Jordan - Anton Yelchin
He is a great up and coming young actor like Benjamin Walker. He has great comedy plus the spirit to pull of a different Green Lantern from Ryan Reynolds version. Plus he has starred in a few major blockbuster's such as Star Trek so he knows what the level of this film would be already.
The Flash/Barry Allen - Garrett Hedlund
I've only seen him in one film which was Tron Legacy.But this kid has the acting chops.Like I say give him a chance also.
Aquaman/Arthur Curry - Liam Hemsworth
Recently starred in The Hunger Games and now upcoming in The Expendables 2. This kid can handle a role such as Aquaman, he has the looks for the part but when it comes to acting we have to see.
Martian Manhunter/J'onn J'onzz - Tony Todd
Who can play an alien and still seem threatening. When I think of Martian Manhunter his name first came to me. He has the voice similar to the animated series. This guy is a mean actor and I mean great. In any role you give him no matter how crazy it is.
Wonder Woman/Diana - Teresa Palmer
Wonder Woman I believe needs a young actress in the role. That is why I picked her. Her personality may not match the character but it comes down when in the costume and how you act in the role. With a few lessons on the character she would do fine in the film. Plus she has experience in action films now.
And all of this directed by Uwe Boll. It's the perfect vision so make it happen Warner Bros and DC!
