Now I'm not one to pre-judge here, but come on. It's not even called Green Arrow. Ughh. Why can't DC make movies better than Marvel? First it was Catwoman, then it was Superman (which wasn't bad but could've been better), and now it's this. Seriously, the only recent DC movie that's good is Batman Begins. They better start making moves on the standards of Marvel or Marvel will simply crush them.

Red Tornado? Booster Gold? WHAT? You have to be kidding man. Green Arrow is more popular than those two I'm a hundred percent sure. Plus he's on Smallville.Yeah, I did over-exagerate. I just hate Green Arrow because he's so boring. Batman and Robin are the only powerless SUPERheros imo.

I'll be more vivid..I hope someone remembers the name
SPOILERS:
so It seems at one point he died...
and he went to heaven
but decided to leave his soul on earth *hell if I know how/why XD*
and it lead him to waking up all of a sudden not remembering ANYTHING beyound Going across the country with GL
*which was awsome for me since I had been reading that point into the comics*
and Madness insues...
it even drags in a "Black Heart" like charecter into the mix..
awsome stuff!

Green Arrow does sound stupid, but keep in mind this is just a script and probably wont get approved. I would add that while Catwoman sucked, and Superman was disapointing. V for Vendetta, Constantine, and now Stardust were all hits, the 1st two #1 opening week.
DC is going for Dark and serious, and to be honest I'm sick of Marvels cheap pop movies that open at #1 opening week and drop the following weeks. The Spiderman, and X-Men franchises, and Blade are stellar with the exception of part 3 for all 3 films. Daredevil, Hulk, Electra, Fantastic Four, Punisher, even Ghost Rider, as well as Blade3, X3, and Spiderman 3 have been brutal to watch.
Marvels movies are like a Mugen Betas, the screenshots and hype looks awsome, then you realize it has no meat to it. I'll take Batman Begins, or V for Vendetta over any of that anyday.
DC is very close to putting Wonder Woman and DEATH into pre-production with scripts being written for Justice League as we speak, hoping Justice League (no Batman) will resurrect the Superman franchise. DC owns TV right now, Marvel cant keep anything on the air Blade the Series, and Fantastic 4 the animated series were cancelled 1st season. So it balances a little bit

I agree, but I think the titans (young titans) should have their own movie, I would love to see a young sexy Raven, Starfire, and Terra played by some hawt chicks in their very early twenties

Love Batman Begins it just isnt for the average fan, but that is how Batman is. He's not a flashy Spiderman character. Batman Begins is an accurate depiction of what many of the comic storylines are like, and shows the correct origin of Batman. Ra's Al Ghul played by Liam Neeson is probably the most accurate villian ever in a Batfilm.

I don't usually like to quote whole posts, but this guy talks sense. I'm quite happy to let Stan Lee push all of Marvel's property through the sausage machine that is Hollywood while DC actually takes its time, thankyouverymuch. I mean, Marvel are already working on another Hulk movie that's a reboot and a sequel to that horribly shoddy piece of film-making they released a few years back. They're treading old ground!
Meanwhile, Chris Nolan's working on The Dark Knight (Batman Begins sequel) and frankly, it's going to rock some faces off. We're talking a serious director for a franchise that could have quite easily went the direction of Batman & Robin.
Saying that, I did thoroughly enjoy the early Marvel movies. X-Men 1 and 2 were great and I did enjoy the Blade trilogy (hell, even The Punisher was quite well done). But now things are getting silly. It's all about the green stuff (money, not Kryptonite).
I hope to hell this Green Arrow script doesn't get green-lighted. I was just beginning to believe DC knew what it was doing with their movie franchises...
And yes, we need another Howard the Duck film, pronto!
