It's official. George Miller is directing The Justice League for Warner Brothers.
Before today I felt indifferent at best about this movie. You try to cram that many superheroes into one room and it's probably gonna be a clusterfuck of Schumacherian proportions. But this is the director who brought us The Road Warrior and Babe. This is the only guy who ever remade a Twilight Zone episode that surpassed the original. There's going to be (has already been) a lot of kvetching about what heroes and villains should be included/left out. But I'm telling you right now none of that matters. I don't care who's in this version of the team. I don't care if the set piece is Blue Beetle versus Starro. As long as Miller is directing we're assured a unique and thrilling action adventure.

i used think a JLA film would be simply impossible to film; cost-wise. but it seems theyre going ahead with Watchmen, so what do i know?
i keep hearing different things--Aquaman is in, he's out, etc. i think the only definite is that Bale and Routh will not be involved, which is weird, but i get it.
I heard somewhere that Bale was out, but Routh was in. They would make this a quasi-sequel to Superman Returns.
But Duffman says a lot of things...
Yeah well Miller also gave us Beyond Thunderdome!
According to the all powerful "internet" today Bale and Routh are a no go... and Diana may be... Jessica Biel!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hot damn!!!!
(on a side note) - The "internet" is saying that Dominic Wes from The Wire is playing Jiggsaw in the new Punisher film! (I like it!)
Slacker was one of my favorite comics of all time. I'm looking for an artist to illustrate future episodes of Hooker by Day/Hooker by Night. I have the originals scanned and posted online. They have a rabid internet following. and I don't mean they're popular. I just mean they have one fan who happens to have rabies.

Holy crap! Coen, the King Of Puns, lives!
I barely remember drawing those pages. It must have drawn those during my airplane glue phase.
Bryan,
The casting of McNulty as Jigsaw has improved this movie's potential ten-fold. Sadly, I think those Biel rumors have since been debunked.

Wow Doug! I'm even more impressed than when I found out you had a fan club!
