The All About Comic Book Movies Thread

That looks like lots of fun. It's got the whole cool Ocean's Eleven vibe though that may just be because they used that same song at the beginning.

I really like the cast though. And they even kept that awesome sniper scene from the comic. Cool.
 
Time Warner Inc. Chairman & CEO Jeff Bewkes:
We are going to have a fairly interesting set of announcements and presentations pretty soon like in a matter of weeks, I think, about our plans for DC. And basically if you look across the title of the whole band of hits whether its Batman, The Dark Knight, Green Lantern coming up, Superman, there have been a huge number of franchised films that have been part of the Warner [tent pole] strategy that's been the reason for Warner's unparallel high and consistent earnings advantage over the other studios and DC has already been a part of that and we are now going to outline an even more expansive plan for that in the coming months.

Also:
[You'll] hear more about our plans to mine more aggressively the deep catalogue of DC Comics characters across Warner Brothers' theatrical, home video, TV and games divisions and across our other divisions as well.

That does look like fun.

I got a Smoking Aces vibe from it.

I am so happy.

Not only do we get a confirmation that he's working on a third Batman but he's going to help get Superman going as well. I love Christopher Nolan.
 
Finally saw From Hell tonight. I thought it was really good although a little confusing in some parts. It came together in the end though.

Now I need to read the GN that's been in my "to read" list for over a year.

Which will take you almost a year to read.
 
What little I saw of that movie was bad.

The comic is a masterpiece.
 
Bad because it just seemed... corny. I hadn't read the comic when I saw the bits of the movie so that didn't even factor in.

They do sound completely different though:

The film condenses or ignores much of the novel's discussion of the supernatural and occult. The novel makes no mystery of Jack's identity, concentrating instead on the psychology of the character and of the era, while the film is a whodunit mystery.

Those were like the best bits.
