    Releasing this movie in the same year as Avengers 2 could be problematic...

    This is awesome. But I'm going to say it, It's more than likely going to suck. We all know it. Warner Brothers are clearly rushing this and it will fail horribly. Not in the box office, but just as a movie. Mark my word. I shall return in 2015! Even with a great writer and director I just don't see this working, especially with Warner Bros behind this.. All I can see is Green Lantern all over again.....

    Nolan would have to give up his 'realism' stuff if he wants to do this.. I can see it now.. Wonder Woman is from some lost tribe of women in the jungles of Brazil.. The Flash is a super genius who creates shoes that make him run fast... Aquaman is a ripoff from Kevin Costner's character in Waterworld..... lol.

    New 52 roster would be pretty cool. However I find that Cyborg might just be too hard to do and could become a hastle for the movie. I'm thinking of just eliminating that position completely just for the movie =/

    Marvel put DC and Warner Bros on suicide watch :P That's why they announced it so fast... It's like back in 2005 - Marvel announced their plans for Avengers then suddenly a Justice League movie goes into development... But fails, lol - imagine if it happens again.

    I don't see why people have to pick a side. Sure, I like DC more, but I enjoy Marvel a lot as well. I'm DC-first but I loved the Avengers, it became one of my favorite films. But does that make me any less of a Batman/Flash/etc. fan? No way.

    I think that in order for the JL movie to not be like the Avengers movie (alien invasion, or any kind of invasion for that matter), yet still have it interesting with interesting villains without using the biggest big bad they can find for just the first movie (Darkseid), they need to make the JL's enemies a supervillain team. Like the Injustice League, or maybe have a Crisis on Two Earths or Justice Lord-type plot.

    I fear the movie's gonna bomb because of the general public's lack of knowledge with any DC hero not named Batman or Superman. Plus, I feel it'll be too soon to see a new Batman on the big screen again. Those points aside, the roster should have: Superman (duh), Batman (you kinda have to), Wonder Woman, Flash, and Green Lantern (make him actually good this time) Those are the must-haves. Aquaman, maybe. Make him really B.A. though. Martian Manhunter may be hard to explain in one film where he's not even the main character. And Cyborg just seems like more of a Titan to me.

    Them song: Thunderstruck by AC/DC. Supes busting through a brick wall; Batman swinging in from his rope; Flash racing across the city; Aquaman leaps out of the water; Wonder Woman jumps from a landing and GL comes flying down from space all to come meet at a central point to do battle..... and yes to Thunderstruck

    AC/DC was and still is used as Tony's soundtrack for awesome. I doubt DC would want that correlation being made by the audience.

    @Supes1903: haha, I have no creativity at all, but for some reason when I hear that song and every time the chorus line chimes in with Thunder. I always visualize a camera shot to a each of the members coming in to join forces.

    @JV: How about "New Dawn Fades" Instrumental by Moby. Gives them a more badass feel.

    Oh don't get me wrong, I agree with your idea. I was just pointing out that Marvel has already made good use of their music so I doubt it would get re-used especially considering the context.

    ...and to think, I decried the very notion of a JLA movie.

    I claimed a JLA movie would NEVER happen... I hereby return from beyond the void to publicly eat those words (as I said I would), om nom nom.

    I've never been more happy to be wrong... but they better not screw it up.

    bad idea. bad idea. so many problems for Justice League 2015 (10 reasons why)

    1) they don't even have a proper script, makes me wonder why wouldn't they take some of the story from the comics. ITS NOT THAT HARD

    2) besides Henry Cavill they don't have a cast. they don't even have a director. they're fucked.

    3) they haven't decided on the roster. I say keep the top 5 supes, bats, ww, flash and gl. others will come in later JL movies. too early for cyborg, aquaman etc to appear.

    4) from the top 5 they don't have solo movies for ww or flash. I don't think they're even planning on making any before 2015. they should if they want the audience to understand the movie not be confused by how some of the characters got there.

    5) they want to make the JL 2015 first before any solo movies. the general audience isn't going to like this, especially with characters who's origin they know not of.

    6) they want to reboot everything. starting from Man of Steel every other DC character to be in JL 2015 will get rebooted. personally I think supes, bats and gl don't need to be rebooted seeing they've already braced the big screen and most people should know. If not they can't complain e.g a GL movie was never made because it was. Just give a ww and flash movie and its done. Unfortunately time constraints forces them to forget this otherwise they would need to make 6 other solo movies. 2 more movies is all that's needs. forget rebooting.

    7) they feel pressured. they're rushing things. mistakes happen when things are rushed. that it slowly and do what Marvel did with their solo movies backing up Avengers. No one's gonna say or care about DC copying Marvel or JL being Avengers rip-off. No one cares. This movie should be for all not just comic book fans who understand how comics work. Many people in the world don't read comics.

    8) They are competing with Avengers 2! bad mistake. Avengers is already big. Avengers 2 is arguably gonna be better, if not people will be eager to see it anyway regardless if its crap or not. JL 2015 on the other hand won't be. No back up solo movies, no sequence of events, rushing straight to the big screen. Very few would be eager to wanna see this. Star Wars is also coming out giving double bucks for Disney. Warner Bros can't compete in the same year. Instead of the JL being compared to Avengers 1 they end being compared to Avengers 2. If JL sucked compared to Avengers 2 then that's it even if JL is better than Avengers 1.

    9) they're only a year away from release. they're running out of time. I would advise to reschedule the times and have a JL movie later, earliest 2017 after flash and ww have been done properly. If not 2020 with all the stupid time-wasting reboots. We may all be eager for a JL movie but I'm willing to wait. No point in being quick and crappy (which I assume might be like GL movie) when slow and steady accounts for mistakes. Avengers 1 may be good now, Avengers may be better but in the long run JL should get the edge unless they stuff up now, then they'll find it hard to recover.

    10) if the JL movie sucks (hopefully it won't) then DC is done for. Warner Bros goes bankrupt after being so successful. Marvel is currently more popular than DC. This could be DC's turning point to gain the lost ground over Marvel. DC doesn't need Stan Lee or anything that makes Marvel famous. They just need to take things slowly and carefully, they're characters can be epically awesome on the big screen but they need to be handled properly. DC doesn't prize themselves on popularity unlike Marvel but they need to be careful when spending big bucks. DC animated movies, comics, tv series from what I've seen are much better than Marvel animated movies, comics, tv series. I expect the live-action film to be the same.
