It got a good review from him.

Re: Avengers Movie

Easily the best Super Hero movie I have ever seen. I sure hope the next one is at least half as good as this one.

Re: Avengers Movie

I am still hoping for the Justice League equivalent. Certainly ought to be able to be done, but the Avengers was really several years in the making, with SHIELD tying the various superheroes together and hinting at the overall goal. I have a feeling if a JL movie is done, it will be much more rushed, and far less effective.

Probably so. I didn't watch the Green Latern with Ryan Reynolds, so I don't know how good that movie was, but the last Superman movie was extremely boring to me. So, I'd think they'd need to do a couple of reboots for those characters (well at least superman I can speak of) before they'd try a Justice League movie.

Lets just say the Superman was much better then the Green Lantern movie, that should tell you all you need to know about the Green Lantern movie.

Well Christopher Nolan has taken up an executive role for DC overseeing their films. With Dark Knight Rises supposedly being his last Batman movie he's taken a producer role on the new Superman directed by Zack Snyder. Putting a creative genius like Nolan was the smartest thing DC could as was Marvel for setting up the franchises the way they did and then trusting Joss Whedon with everything to get the puzzle put together.

As far as the green lantern movie, it wasn't as god awful as some others are making it out to be(I'd maybe give it a 5 out of 10), unfortunately though the best part of the movie was only about 10-15% of the movie when he's on the planet Oa. I like Ryan Reynolds, but personally I would have gone with Nathan Fillion as green lantern and made Ryan Reynolds the original DC hero he was supposed to play in the Flash. The hardest character to cast is gonna be Wonder Woman cuz she's gotta be about 6' tall and both incredibly sexy and believable to kick even Superman's ass.
