The Flash movie in the works!

Yesterday, we found out that Warner Bros. created DC Entertainment, and today, we found out that there would be a Flash movie in the works, according to IGN & SuperheroHype.com, Charles Roven, the producer of The Dark Knight says-

"I was involved at one point with The Flash," said Roven. "And Warner Bros. came to me and said, 'The work that you've been doing hasn't yet resulted in something that any of us, including the filmmaking team, feel could be greenlit as a movie. We're trying to accomplish something that takes into account the entire, rich DC character world, and we'd like to pull it back. That doesn't mean that you aren't going to be a part of it. We just want to take a different kind of approach. Do you mind if we try that?' If we had something that was really working..."

and then, we get this, from Dan Mazeau, the screenwriter of the film(courtesy of IGN)-

"Just to chime in on your latest article(here): The Flash has not been hobbled. Everything is moving forward as planned, I'm still writing the script..." "...Flash fans have no cause for concern, and -- IMO -- lots to be excited about."

That sounds promising. To be honest, I won't believe anything until I see some good, solid proof that this will happen. We've seen too many projects like this be planned then scrapped. We'll keep you updated. Kazed

Guy Ritchie signed on to Direct Lobo

This news excites me. very much so. Some of you may remember Lobo in Superman: The Animated Series, or in the episode of Justice League where he came to earth in the hopes of joining them. I love this guy, and is definitely one of my favourite Anti-Hero's. The following comes from SuperheroHype.com-

Warner Bros. Pictures has set Guy Ritchie to direct Lobo, a live action adaptation of the DC Comics title about an alien interstellar bounty hunter, reports Variety. Don Payne wrote the most recent script draft, and Joel Silver, Akiva Goldsman and Andrew Rona will produce. The film is a co-production between Silver Pictures and Weed Road. In the film, says the trade, Lobo will be a seven-foot tall, blue(gray)-skinned, indestructible and heavily muscled anti-hero who drives a pimped out motorcycle, and lands on Earth in search of four fugitives who are bent on wreaking havoc. Lobo teams with a small town teenaged girl to stop the creatures. Production on Lobo begins early next year. The studio is aiming for a PG-13 rating.

Sounds freakin awesome. Kazed
