Yes it's legit. This is AICN's article today on it (and apperantly Happy Feet 2..er...)

The title was announced March 19th in the Sydney Harald according to wikipedia.

Just when I stopped caring about this movie, they pulled me back in.

The only problem I see with not having Batman or Superman is that then this movie might only seem cool to its comic book fan audience. The average Joe would probably be turned off by that.

I think it's cool to have a live action DC movie with more emphasis on other characters(finally).

Which is why Im excited for the Green Arrow movie....Im eager to find out just what B/C list villians he's gonna run into in prison.

You didn't??? I've posted info on it several times. It's called Super Max. Basically Oliver Queen is revealed as Green Arrow and is imprisoned for a crime he didn't comit. He's put in a prison full of B and C list villians and rogue superheroes and of course tries to escape.

Hope they can do something memorable with that plot....

But why on on earth is it called "Super Max"?

Cuz Green Arrow is at a Maximum Security prison for Supers.

Justice League has been "tabled".

Talking to producer Joel Silver at a Speed Racer junket, CHUD.com has broken the news that the Justice League movie has been "tabled." This doesn't necessarily mean that the project is forever cancelled, but it does mean that the movie in the form that we've known it as, with that cast and that director and script, is almost certainly not going to happen. Silver makes a point in that article of pointing out that it took Speed Racer 20 years to get made (at various points to star Johnny Depp, Vince Vaughn as Racer X, etc). The League's hurdles apparently won't impact Wonder Woman, which I'm suspecting may actually get a faster track now as a JLA substitute on Warner Bros' slate. Ultimately, I think this is good news, as this particular Justice League project always sounded like something of a "minor league" project, with unknowns or near unknowns in the cast, and not being based on one of the League's many classic stories. So far, I like Marvel's approach to their own super team, The Avengers, introducing each member in a movie, until there's enough heroes to join together in one big movie. DC could have done something like that if they had signed Christian Bale and Brandon Routh to reprise their roles, but that wasn't the route they took. Some day, after there are movies for The Flash, Green Lantern and Wonder Woman, I think Warner Bros would be in a much better position to make a Justice League movie. The time just doesn't seem right, and with all the budget and location problems they've had, it looks like they've realized that fact at last.

Oh, well.

That's what I hate about these sorts of films. They take forever in this way.

I just want to see the Flash and WW on the silver screen, whether it be solo movies or otherwise...*drools*

GOOD. That movie was looking pretty awful. I wanna see Wally on the big screen just as much as you do, Marty, but not in this context. I'll wait for Ryan Reynolds, thank you.
