Dont know if it was because of the old Batman tv show and the Superfriends cartoon, but I always perceived the DC universe as a bit cheesy and campy. I mean, cmon, Superdog?? But like yourself, with some of there newer films, and having read some stuff Alan Moore has written for them I have come around. I will always be a Marvel guy, but I am pretty psyched for this upcomming Green Lantern Movie. I am a big fan of Ryan Reynolds as well, and believe he will be good for the part. I do however have one problem with the casting. Whats with the double dipping of actors in comic films these days. Deadpool and GL? At least these are different universes. Now we got Johnny Storm as Capt. America? Is Chris Evans so gifted that nobody else could pull off Cap like he can? Lets be serious. Maybe they are just trying to ballance out the fact that we are being subject to a third Bruce banner in as many films. The studios need to understand that the die hards who come out for these types of movies are VERY particular about the film versions of their favorite characters. Hers a rule of thumb they can go by. If you are going to make a major motion picture about a character that an adult dresses up like at comic con, Dont take liberties with the storyline, find an original face to play the part, and when possible stick with them. Still cant wait to see GL Chuck, I too was primarily a Marvel kid.
