Yeah Mos Def, Will Smith (who was acting on TV way before his film career - Fresh Prince???). What about Tone Fucking Loc in Ace Ventura, or LL Cool J in Deep Blue Sea; Eminem's riveting performance in 8 mile or any film with Queen La-fucking-tifa? Rappers suck fucking ass at acting. So full of themselves and thinking living a fantasy life tranfers well to the big screen. Wankers. More

first up... the chimp... thank you! finally, someone else who'd rather give a film a chance before condemning it.
miketang, your comment actually gives this film much more hope than the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen... in that film, they had 5 or more huge names to try to give enough screen time to. by casting unknowns (largely), they're ommiting any obligation towards screen time bias for anyone, so they can focus on story etc... rather than bowing to the actors egos.

Okay, lets look at this for a minute, we have got the possibility of a fun, action packed, highly creative story, which if done correctly with the right script, style and cast could be a great film. But on the other hand... from reading these updates about the JLA, it sounds like they are making a TV, similar to Smallville. Now dont get me wrong, Smallville is a good series and has re-invented some of the story, but it has worked well as it is on the small screen and has time to evolve with a yo More

For starters I think if you have the characters that young the 1st movie will have to be upwards of 3 hours long just to give each hero some screen time, just look at spiderman 3 they tried to cram so much into 2 and bit hours it was just one big mess and ruined what went before it. I really can't see it working but i'm sure hollywood execs will be wetting themselves at the thought of all the cash that will roll in but to be honest unless thay have a bunch of unknowns like have the clowns mentio More

the last decent attept at big ensemble cast of superheroes was league of extraordinary gentlemen. that film failed partly because there was too much going on to really capture each character. these ensemble comics only work as they have seperate stories which combine to show a larger tapestry of the team a 2 hour (max) movie will never do justice to the justice league!

They should at least ASK Routh and Bale if they're interested. Obviously if they give it the thumbs down there's little they can do. But it would be another plus in the eyes of the pyblic if the current faces of Soup and Batty were to also play them in the JL film. More

If they can get the feel of the JLA cartoons, that would be ace, I don't care if I've heard of the actors. Though I think the guy who voiced Martian Manhunter should play him here (the dude from Alias..) I agree with others, this isn't a "young" team. They're meant to already be mature and know their shit. This isnt a university "super hero soc" some kids join. It's a shame Miller's under such a tight deadline, no doubt will force short cuts a-plenty... More

e too. I can't begin to describe just how stupid an idea it is to have two other big screen Batman and Superman actors playing those parts while the other two Routh and Bale franchises are still playing. A terrible idea dreamt up by a suit with $$ signs in his eyes. It could also be potentially harming to the other two franchises, if it turns out to be dreadful. Which it really really will.....

Well this is just depressing. If you want to make a frigging Teen Titans movie, go ahead and invite Adam Brody to your casting session. Don't get a bunch of Dawson's Creek age actors together and expect me to buy it.
Come on, this can't work. It's just a pity the Wonder Woman movie's been put on hold for so long. They could've found a way to pursuade Christian and Brandon to come on board too and there's your central three right there, the rest would 've been a bonus.

To be honest, I'm content with no Justice League movie. It would be better off as an animated movie (2D or 3D). As much as I would love to see a JLA movie, the casting might ruin it all.
I'm all for Reynolds as Flash. I'd love to see Bale and Routh in it as well, but it looks like that won't happen. More

I think one point that many people seem to overlook regarding the fact that this film seems to be looking at different Superman and Batman versios is that the comics themselves do this. I mean how many alternate versions of Gotham and Metropolis are there in DC universe? loads. heck, they even have a term for it... multiverse... that they use so they can cross versions of the same comics, or even - though I may be wrong here - franchises (DC/Marvel - it has happened.).
