Hollywood Goes Green

It has been reported that Ryan Reynolds has now been cast as the DC Universe's most popular Green Lantern: Hal Jordan, in the live-action film.
The big budget epic is expected to begin production in January.
Apparently, Warner Bros. chose Reynolds, over Bradley Cooper (The Hangover) and Jared Leto (Requiem for a Dream). The momentum built for Reynolds in the last week, as he was the only actor whose option was extended.

Lesbian Bat Upstages Dead Bat

DC Comics has killed off Batman twice in recent months, but both deaths have been a less important story in the press than say President Barack Obama making a five page appearance in Amazing Spider-Man. Now, Batman is not only being overshadowed by a wall crawler from a rival comic book company, but the sexuality of one of his potential replacements is a bigger story than the Dark Knight’s own demise.
Yes, a seventy year old, comic book character with a recent half-billion dollar movie can kick the bucket, but it’s not big news until a lesbian gets involved. DC Comics recently revealed that Batwoman would take over Batman’s starring role in Detective Comics this summer. As Fox News
reports Batwoman’s alter ego Kathy Kane is a red-headed lesbian. Fox News also points out that Batwoman wears a figure-hugging black outfit with knee-high red stiletto boots.

Downey Disses DC

Robert Downey Jr. didn't hold back when it came to the subject of The Dark Knight in a recent interview.
After telling the interviewer that Iron Man 2 will be a cool, fun movie, he let it rip when they touched on the topic of Batman...
Downey said:
"My whole thing is that I saw 'The Dark Knight'. I feel like I'm dumb because I feel like I don't get how many things that are so smart. It's like a Ferrari engine of storytelling and script writing and I'm like, 'That's not my idea of what I want to see in a movie.' I loved 'The Prestige' but didn't understand 'The Dark Knight'. Didn't get it, still can't tell you what happened in the movie, what happened to the character and in the end they need him to be a bad guy. I'm like, 'I get it. This is so high brow and so f–king smart, I clearly need a college education to understand this movie.' You know what? F-ck DC comics. That's all I have to say and that's where I'm really coming from."
He went on to say, "You know, you're never too old to burn your bridges because I believe I have offended everyone. I think I've got a couple more. 'I'll burn that bridge when I come to it' is my favorite phrase I've ever coined."
