Been waiting on this for a while. Hopefully GL will be a big hit and bring in dark knight numbers so that this and other DC cbm's have a fighting chance, (wonder woman)

Great find Wolvie! :) I remember watching this interview on Newsarama a few days ago but they have no "embed" option and I was too lazy to transcribe it, lol, so I'm glad it found it's way online elsewhere. I look forward to work progressing on this movie and hearing more about it.

If DC is trying to release two cbm's a year, I wonder when this will start to take effect. What movie will flash share the year with? Maybe batman 3 or superman reboot. A flash and green lantern 2 would just make my year though

I think the two CBM's a year thing starts in 2012. Superman and Batman- 2012. The Flash and (Unknown, maybe GL2?) -2013.

That being said, I can't wait to see what they do with The Flash. I'm glad WB/DC is finally going to start with some new characters. Everything looks amazing for GL.

So half Dexter half superhero lol.

Even though DC vs MK kinda sucked (well violence and plot wise), The Flash and Green Lantern were the coolest people to play as.

I just hate when people say that superheroes can't cameo in another's film. That's so ridiculous. Just because they want Batman to stay 'realistic' which I think is bull, doesn't mean he actually doesn't belong in the same universe.
It's about time; give us crossovers!!! After the first Green Lantern, I sure hope we start getting 'em!
And another thing, what's with all the numerical numbers for the films, why can't they call it like
"FLASH: LIGHTENING IN A BOTTLE"? I like that so much better than "IRON MAN 2" ....grr.
