Are we really going to miss JUSTICE LEAGUE?

10 Comments POSTED ON Jan 18 2008 AT 8:02 am BY Beat

With the Justice League movie on hold due to the writer’s strike, can anyone HONESTLY TRUTHFULLY SAY they were DYING to see a movie with Armie Hammer playing Batman?

10m Are we really going to miss JUSTICE LEAGUE?

A man for whom this is the ONLY extant picture on the internet?

Vulture had it best with their post ‘Justice League’ Movie on Indefinite Hold; Crappy Cast to Sit Tight for a While. Would audiences have accepted this Friday Night Tights cast of youthful nobodies?

And take supermodel Megan Gale as Wonder Woman. There are LOTS of pictures of Megan Gale on the internet, as she is quite famous in Australia and Italy and had a role in STEALTH. Some of these pictures are even safe for work:

At least she’s put on a little meat since then, and at least she’s tall.

Not that we have anything against unknown young actors getting a big break. But come on now. Turning the Justice League into a teeny bopper pic is not a good idea.

    hmm… that approach would work great with Teen Titans or LSH, though.

  2. Tom S. says:

    I have imagined the Justice League as late 20’s or early 30’s superheroes and not teenagers. The teenaged approach would work great for Teen Titans and LSH in my humble opinion.

    Isn’t Megan Gale 32 years old?

  5. Ian Brill says:

    Is that dude’s name really Armie Hammer?

  6. rich says:

    But the Teen Titans are teens … it wouldn’t work … better to take an adult super-hero team and recast them as teens, that way some Hollywood hack can lay claim to “reimagining”" them.

    God, but I love it when you get all bitey. Marry me.

    Oh, and Armie? Is that short for Armen, by chance? Armen Hammer: A name made for porn.

  8. That picture of Gale could be captioned:

    MERKIN: I HAS IT.

  9. JL Fan says:

    Yeah, i want to see this movie for sure, regardless of any strange casting. But in the meantime, i will have to get my JL fix from the new animated version. http://jlnewfrontier.com for details on this flick, looks like its gonna rock.

  10. Interesting seeing how the movie has evolved since you wrote this article! Coming out soon, right? Justice League is the one that Iron Man and Hulk and Captain America are in, right? I can’t wait!!
