George Miller Shares His Thoughts On Cancelled Justice League Film!

I'm happy the movie fell through, make DC do it right, not just force a JLA movie out

220 millions? for a motion capture film?

Common would have been a shitty John Stewart, the guy is a mediocre actor. And I'm really glad that douchebag from The OC didn't get to play The Flash.

boy am I glad Avengers isn't half-assing itself :D

It ain't called Road Warrior its real name is Mad max 2!

Common is an awful choice 4 John Stewart, he's by no means a bad actor but he's certainly not a good 1 either

The actors are unimportant to me, especially in concept mode. My question is what would they do with the characters? They're not going to jump Starro, and if anyone says Darkseid, so help me God....

I read that they had to move the filmimg of Mad Max 4 (Road Warrior for non-Australians)from the Australian desert to Nambia in Africa because its been raining so much the desert is all covered in wild flowers and grass.

Now its pissing down in Nambia too.

Cant find an post-apocalyptic wasteland anywhere when you need one.

and yeah Megan Gale as Wonder Woman.

It was NOT a motion capture film, it was live action. A poster over at the old BlueTights forum (now reincarnated as EyesSkyward) made it up and sent it to a couple of websites to prove that they'd run anything and that 'sources' and necessarily sources.

Plus, Armie Hammer has talked about wearing his Batman suit, how cool it looked and how good he felt in it...he wouldn't have had a suit if the movie was going to be mo-cap. Megan Gale also spoke breifly about the intimidation factor of wearing the Wonder Woman costume.

Also...the cast was horrible and the script breakdown (again, posted on EyesSkyward.com) confirms that Justice League: Mortal was going to be just awful. Thank god this pos died.

Are there any production designs and pictures of the costumes available anywhere? That would be cool to see just how far they got.

'Terra Nova's ' pretty good tonight.
Show's getting better guys.

@UnscrupalousSmurf

you are talking one of my geeky holy grails. i believe somewhere there are WETA photos....hope I get to see one day! but as far as I know, they have never been posted anywhere. i know someone at Aint It Cool was working on i for a story, but not sure it got published.

I thought the motion capture was going to be for OMACS and other non human beings. In some ways I feel a little relieved this film was being rushed some casting felt weird. I would have liked to still seen some of the concept art and the script even Armie Hammer said he put on a actual Batman costume and said it was different than any other one.

I actually think full CGI is the way to go for a Justice League movie. There are so many benefits, foremost amongst them the ability to do a fully intergalactic end of days movie for about half the cost. You could hire the current actors to voice their character with few if any scheduling issues to resolve, and if someone played hardball on their salary you could tell them to rack off - it would be no great loss. Also with fewer budgeting and scheduling issues you would be free to chase the holy grail of superhero films - a ball tearingly awesome trilogy meticulously planned from the get go. Finally, with the stylistic differences from the 'real' solo films it would be much easier to distance the JLA films - you might even be able to avoid the cross over convulsion altogether, something that I think has plagued the Marvel films somewhat.

Also, assuming the first one was a success, you might even be able to ramp things up and release one every couple of years. Provided the quality was there that would be really, really cool.

DC...meh
