So, with James Gunn’s Superman now filming, we’ve been getting more and more looks into the start of this new DC Universe. I’ve been excited for this movie and this new direction at DC for a long time, and with these glimpses of characters like Mr. Terrific, it’s gotten me thinking more about how this universe is going to eventually handle the Justice League.
Regardless of what you think about the DCEU and Zack Snyder's attempt overall, the last Justice League movie was a total mess, and so was the one before with George Miller's Justice League: Mortal.
The DC Universe is so wide and varied, with so many amazing characters that deserve their time in the spotlight, not just limited to DC's Trinity. And so with this new direction, I’m really hoping they take their time and make the introduction of DC’s premiere team of heroes something special. And there’s one character in particular that I think is the key to that.
And so this is what I want from the DCU’s Justice League.

I'm not surprised honestly, have you seen their "we need to talk about your balls" ad? It's much weirder
9:29 green arrow 1: in front of spider man 2 9 in venom statue, green arrow 2: beside miles morales spider-man mask on top shelf, green arrow 3: in front on amazing fantasy 3 comic on bottom shelf, try harder next time some of us dont have lives
@@ArsonArhan101 "some of us don't have lives" bruh that took me like 10 seconds to find and I didn't even pause the video lol
Would personally pull for Vixen or Black Lightning but those other picks are neat
Troy I crunched the numbers. In the past 11 months (closest I can get to a year) you've made 20 videos
10.5 about DC(marvel vs dc game)
10 about Games
7 about movies
5.5 about Marvel
4 about Spiderman 2
2 about IPs that deserve more love
1 about the Avatar
1 about Manga/Comics
So I don't blame you about the 3 DC in a row thing DCs been popping off get yo bag😂
My ideal DCU Justice League line up is Kite-Man, Kite-Man, Kite-Man, Kite-Man, Kite-Man, Kite-Man, and (the most important one of all imo), Kite-Man
hell yeah
You forgot about the big one, Kite-Man
Real 😂
@@troyoboyo17 all we need is kite-man
Kite-Man Hell Yeah
I need Ben Schwartz plastic man so badly
John Mulaney tho
@@thatmovienitpicker8070 Bill Hader tho
@@drattinson insert comedic actor here tho
andy samberg
Why not Zachary Levi? From one red costumed superhero to another.
I’d honestly prefer to have Barry start out as The Flash because one of the things I want to see adapted is Nightwing’s friendship with Wally/Donna and the titans
I need to see that friendship again, it's so good.
I agree seeing their friendship is just as important as Superman and Batman’s friendship
Also like Barry’s connection with Batman cuz they both somewhat detectives
Considering the Batman movie they've announced is going to have Damian as Robin, that's still not 100% out of the question for having Wally be the league's main Flash, unless they erase every Robin before Damian from the timeline, which I would hope is such an obviously bad idea that they wouldn't try it given how well Nightwing's doing right now.
I honestly really wanna see the tight knit bond of the OG titans especially between Wally and Dick like you said as well as the iconic Barry and Hal friendship too
I simply NEED Martian Manhunter. I won't complain about the roster as long as J'onn is there
Same!! Martian man hunter is my favorite superhero! He needs to be in the justice league
can not stress how necessary he is to the groups dynamic
sameeeeee
@@somerandolad is ideal height in the comics is 6 6. But I see where you’re coming from
He's the one who brought them together
I'd love to see you do a "What I want from an X-Men film in the MCU" video soon. 👀👀👀
💯
The main things I would like for an X-Men movie in the MCU would be a more consistent continuity and the classic costumes.
@@aaronwentz3190 make it more like X-Men 97 and my ass is in the seat
Plus the fantastic 4!!
@@aaronwentz3190*
And Cyclops, Jean and Professor X as the main characters
Not Wolverine
I know it'd be easy to introduce Wally as the Flash and simply have Barry dead or missing in the Speedforce from the get-go, but I'd love it if they took more of an Insomniac Spider-Man approach and just have Barry no longer be the Flash full-time, maybe having him recently become a dad or something like that. I've always preferred stories where a hero has to forge their own identity whilst their mentor is still around, to me it's a bit more unique and if done right can really highlight the distinction between both characters (again, Insomniac I think did it really well and Barry and Wally could really use that). Not to mention it would put Barry Allen in a position we don't often see him or many superheroes in for that matter, and it'd keep the door open if they ever did want to feature things like Thawne or wider Flash Family centric stories.
In this case I think it would be better if Barry is dead or missing since its put a bigger pressure on Wally. Also it could lead to " The Return of Barry Allen" story which I think is one of the best Flash arcs.
@@huntertezz Both great points, I was definitely speaking in terms of my own tastes where I feel that the missing/dead mentor is a bit overdone by this point, but I could totally see that being the way they take it since that is the usual origin behind Wally's Flash. Either way I hope that whichever Flash they go with (assuming it's Barry or Wally) I hope that they don't dwell on the tragic elements of their origins too much and focus more on their personalities and relationships with other heroes or even their villains. I've always liked that their origins or key moments in their stories are fairly dark but it's never reflected in their personalities or actions, they don't let it overtake them like we see with Batman, so if we do get Wally's Flash I hope they don't dwell on the loss of Barry too much in his first appearance.
I personally would like have Wally as the main Flash but I don't mind if they keep Barry as The Flash but make Wally West a more revelant character.
Even give to him his own project could be intresting. Imagine if they do an adaptation of Young Justice episode "Coldhearted" (my favorite Wally story ever)
It would be interesting to have Barry in a Jay Garrick type role
FINALLY!!! Someone who says this!!!
Another thing that can be mentioned is PUTTING WALLY BACK IN KEYSTONE CITY!! It's feeling shameful that he's basically taking Central City as his own when he operated in Keystone City for almost 20 years. Keystone isn't far, but it isn't too close either.
I trust James Gunn to give us a good line up for the JLA but we need the hall of justice
Yes!! I want the hall of Justice!!
fr i dont care who they put in the lineup as long as we get them debating in the hall of justice like that one scene of young justice
MEANWHILE
It will be in the Superman movie
Of course he'll do a hall of justice. No doubt he'll do the Watchtower too.
Sorry, you're telling me that GUILLERMO DEL TORO wanted to do a Justice League Dark movie and DC said no?!
Yes and no :/ Guillermo del toro wanted to do a justice league dark movie and DC said yeah write a movie go ahead. So he started developing it, but it never really materialized. There was a time when WB signed on JJ Abrams to help with developing DC dark content and he was also working on a justice league dark/ Zatana solo film, but that also never got past writing and pre production. When the flash, black Adam, blue beetle, and Shazam 2 came out and all bombed (I loved blue beetle but I have to admit it lost money) and James Gunn came on to do a whole revitalization of the DC films department, the JLD stuff kinda fell through quietly at the same time as every other random DC project in development at the time
As long as we get the Hal and Barry friendship, I won't complain.
Then again, John and Wally would also be brilliant!
@@jamienichols9352wally has a more natural friendship with hal and kyle
@@jamienichols9352
If we go by "cOMic AcCuRacY" then John & Wally won't be a thing. It would actually be Kyle and Wally, but people, including Wally Fans, don't seem to gaf about Kyle.
@@baligong3592 I really don't mind Kyle, I just think of Wally and John because of the DCAU (obviously).
@@jamienichols9352
I believe you do not mind, idm Kyle and Wally as well... I personally think Kyle should be part of the Titans, but my gripe will always be for those who scream "copy accuracy" but are 100% ok if their Favourites aren't changed.
It's like the equivalent of a Spider-Man Fan wanting "Comic Accuracy" while their favourite version of Spider-Man is Sam Raimi's Movies or ITSV Miles Morales.
All this universe needs is to have Detective Chimp as the main focus, the money will print itself
True, real fans know that the “DC” in “DC Comics” actually stands for “Detective Chimp.”
i read that as the monkey will print itself
The Justice League Unlimited theme in the background always gets my heart pulsing.
The Arrow himself's locations:
- Left on the table in front of the Venom action figure
- Hiding in the left corner of the top shelf beside the Mask
- A bit harder to see, but he’s located on the bottom shelf between the cup and the comic, hidden by Troy's microphone stand
Dude adding both Wally West and Zatanna on the justice league. Sign me the hell up
ZATANA LEGSSS
Honestly, in hoping Vixen gets a lot of representation in the new DCU, if she is a part of the roster for the JL I know she'll become truly as popular as she should be
NGL I’d love to see Plastic Man on this roster because the League needs someone to handle the comic relief and Plas is the best guy to do that besides Flash.
Honestly I would love to have Dinah on the League (Maybe even leading it) and Ollie not on the team officially, but tagging along sometimes and keeping them in check in his specific brand of aggressively getting in everyone’s face. Maybe not calling them nazis all the time like he used to do, but a few steps removed from that.
I think having Batman in year 10-12 makes him way more believible to be in the Justice League
11:32 gunn already confirmed he's gonna have the bowl cut!
also a justice league dark video would be great
The justice league dark was one of if not the best ideas from the new 52.
Jessica Cruz as Green Lantern for the League while Jon Stewart leading the entire corps would be the best of both worlds.
Straight up ignoring Hal is not best
Cruz is underrated. I think having the Justice League already existed and have Hal be missing (hence the lanterns series) would be interesting, have hal act like soldier boy or captain america dealing with a new world
No! No! No! Jon Stewart needs to be the main lantern on the team!
@@SmoothLife. Hal>
Kyle Rayner on a teen titans or young justice team would be cool
I NEED Black Canary as a JL member in the DCU so bad. She deserves more casual respect.
agreed
I don’t think the DCU should copy the MCU at all and should just be it’s own thing. BUT, one thing they should definitely do is make it so each film feels so distinct and unique and different that when they merge to from the JLA it’s weird in a good way. It’s exciting, the MCU nailed that in Phase 1 and if the DCU was to steal one thing it would be that. I still think Pattinson should be the Batman for the DCU.
Nah Pattinson is too young for justice league maybe wait until his second movie? And then there will be time jump 10-15 years for third movie then we're good to go 😅
PLEASE! GREEN ARROW FANBOY PREWRITES! WE NEEDS IT!
My ideal lineup for the justice league is Superman, Batman, wonder, woman, Green Lantern, parentheses, Hal, Jordan, or John Stewart, The flash, Barry Allen, Aquaman, the Martian Manhunter. Basically the lineup of JLA from Grant Morrison. At least for the first movie. More members will definitely be added on as the universe goes on
Morrison’s JLA had Wally as Flash and Kyle as Green Lantern
Don’t worry I know. I just really like the series. The seven that I mentioned are the original line up. By Gardner fox. Which I think should be made into the new dcu.
Not gonna lie, Hal needs to be the main green lantern. DC NEEDS TO PUT RESPECT ON MY GUY AGAIN
Martian man hunter needs to be on the team (NOT CYBORG)
Considering they're casting for an older Hal Jordan and a younger John Stewart makes me think John Stewart will be the JL's Lantern moving forward
Agreed!
@@Geohillierneo true but that still doesn’t mean he can’t join the league
@@Geohillierneo
Why? I don’t think Hal has ever been portrayed as John’s mentor. Why wouldn’t they go for the actual newer Green Lanterns like Simon Baz and Jessica Cruz?
John being in the Justice League is great because Lanterns seems to be John's very early days in the lantern corps meaning the audience will be able to follow John's journey.
I think young justice did a really good job portraying the justice league having the main 7 in the spotlight but also having characters around like Shazam,fate,canary, arrow, red tornado
For me it'll be similar to DCAU with some changes: Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Flash (Barry Allen yet Wally West will take the mantle when he passes), Green Lantern (John Stewart), Hawkgirl, and Martian Manhunter. As time goes by, new members will be added and the roster will be like Justice League International with the inclusions of Booster Gold, Ted Kord Blue Beetle, Fire and Ice, Shazam, Dr.Light (Kimoyo Hoshi), Captain Atom, Vixen, Guy Gardner Green Lantern, Mister Miracle, Big Barda, etc. That's how I envision it.
Vixen is a very important inclusion for me personally. She was DCs first black woman hero, and she is consistently a member of the justice league. I think she’s a character that could easily become very popular among women, especially black women, with how stylish and cool she is.
I would not mind if they added Shazam to the Justice League, or gave him a cameo in Superman, more Pre-New 52 inspired, so just a radio reporter kid by himself.
4:36 Trust me when I tell you that NO ONE gives a single flying f**k about how many female or male characters there are in a hero team. Who the hell really cares? Are the characters GOOD? That is what really matters.
With everything going on in the new DCU and with certain characters being cast/confirmed (Batman, Guy Gardner's Green Lantern, Maxwell Lord, Booster Gold, Blue Beetle), I feel like we may get a live action adaptation of the Justice League International just like what this show did.
I kinda headcanon for now that Mr. Terrific, Metamorpho, Hawkgirl, and Guy Gardner's Green Lantern may be members of it with the team being pre-established by now with Maxwell Lord as their goverment liason and are not only Superman's "superfriends" but are trying to recruit him to join the team as well in the Superman movie.
Eventually, Superman and Wonder Woman will join the team later on, and it'll will be more accurate to the original team.
I need a good Barry Alan on the big screens
I heard that James Gunn was taking inspiration from Young Justice and I sosososo hope that's true bc that show was soooo much better than ppl make it out to be
Honestly i wouldnt wanna have them sideline Barry and Hal(Favorite Lantern and Flash admittedly)and as much as i love Wally I'd love to see Wallys journey from Kid Flash to the Flash after Barrys death/sacrifice rather than jump straight into Wally but hey thats just my opinion and I'd be fine with it either way
Much as I loved the idea in Melissa Benoist’s “Supergirl”, can we… *not* have J’onn J’onzz playing a role in the military? I’m not even a hardcore anti-army guy, but I really think it doesn’t fit him; he’s a pretty independent entity who works in a team, not as a commander as much.
I’m also willing to accept Guy Gardener as brunet - so long as he’s got the bowl cut - but can we *please* have a ginger Wally West? There are redheads in the acting industry, stop depriving them of these iconic characters!
Justice League should be: Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Flash (Barry), Green Lantern (Hal), Aquaman.
Later team members that join: Green Arrow, Black Canary, Shazam, Zatanna, Big Barda, Mr. Miracle, supergirl
Titans who join later on: Cyborg, Nightwing
Associated "members" who help but are not official a part: John Constantine, Swamp Thing, Orion/New Gods, Dr. Fate, mera, cat woman
11:54. YESSSS!!!! I AM SO GLAD SOMEONE SAID THIS!!! I am so tired of people saying magic is just instant death for Superman, IT IS NOT. I’ve told so many people about this and there’s still so many people who don’t know this. I’m glad a big RUclipsr talked about this.
Crazy how a normal man like Mr. Terrific can go around fighting crime I know there’s Batman but he’s basically the worlds greatest everything but Mr. Terrific on the other hand goes around with his *Big* *metal* *balls* smacking and shooting his enemies!
I mean terific's also one of the smartiest smarty pants in the dc universe so there's that.
terrific is smarter than Batman
I forgot to add that he is the third smartest man alive
there is a lot of "normal humans" fighting crime and being super heroes in dc, i mean green arrow is a perfect example of a human hero, he is rich but not the richest person in the world, he is a good fighter but there is a lot of people better than him, he is not the smartest guy, or even the best archer in the world, merlyn (his villain) is a better archer than him, green arrow himself says that, and that´s awesome for me and for a lot of people, one of the better things about green arrow is that he is just a normal guy with a green bow, a real normal guy and not the type of "normal human" like batman who is everything except a normal human thanks to his superior skills and for the power that writers and executives gives to him all the time, i love a good version of batman, really love him (not the edgy batGOD that can do everything and is kinda a lunatic mean toxic guy, y hate that batman), but not all the human heroes needs to be like batman, batman is like the peak of humanity even when are people who are better than him is some aspects, green arrow is a better archer than bruce, nightwing is a better acrobat, mr terrfic and lex luthor are smarter than him, lady shiva or cassandra cain are better fighters, even some characters are better detectives than him, but bruce is a mix of everything, he is the top 1 in many skills but the top 2, 3 or even 4 in some others and that is fine, so the fact that people like mr terrific or even members of the batfamily like nightwing are there whitout super powers and the power of the script like batman, it´s something richer to the lore of being a hero in dc, the message than anyone can be a hero, even when the normal heroes are prodigies in many skills like nightwing arrow or terrific. (English is not my native language, sorry for the mistakes)
@@sebastiangaldo6889wait who's smarter then mr. Terrific? If he's third smartest the other one i know is manhunter
For the DCU, the JL should take some inspiration from the JLU cartoon, as well the Satellite Era, being portray as this pantheon of heroes who watch over Earth from their space station.
As for the line up, it should be
Superman
Batman
Wonder Woman
Flash (Wally West)
Green Lantern (John Stewart)
Martian Manhunter
Hawkgirl (Kendra)
Zatanna
Plastic Man
Oracle
great video troy! but i disagree that mr terrific and kendra should be in the justice league. they should be in the JSA, its where they get the most focus and where they really shine as characters, as they're both legacy characters and get the best interactions with the other members of the team
I feel like a really interesting Justice League member or even just as a recurring ally character could be Red Tornado.
He has NEVER (to my knowledge) been in live action, so I'd KILL for some appearances of him.
I think it’d be fun if the justice league was assembled at the end of the first chapter, sort of in a new frontier movie.
As a Greek person, WONDER WOMAN MUST BE PLAYED BY A GREEK ACTOR IMO. I even wrote an article abt this, there are barely any Greek heroes and honestly it would be so cool to have her played by someone Greek
do you mind sending the link of that article? i'd love to take a read!
I love dc, but there is one character i need more than ANY OTHER. This character has been very underutilized and i cant wait for their debut in this new universe. And that is... batman...
Sue me...
I do agree Black Canary and Zatanna are heavily underrated
As someone who has gotten pretty burnt out on cbms it's so cool how videos like this actually get me hype still for what's to come
The 1st Green Arrow is below the venom statue on the desk, the 2nd is besides the Miles Morales mask on the shelf, and the 3rd is on the shelf below in front of the Amazing Fantasy #15 comic
3 green arrows: 1 on the desk, 1 on the top shelf and 1 on the bottom. How’s that?
Martian Manhunter is so underrated.
I just want them to use the founding members for once. All of them meaning: Superman/Clark Kent, Batman/Bruce Wayne, Wonder Woman/Diana, Green Lantern/Hal Jordan, Flash/Barry Allen, Aquaman/Arthur Curry, and Martian Manhunter.
No replacements. No excuses.
Me too! I wish Dc always go with the big seven and then add more members.
I recently read Identity Crisis from Brad Meltzer, and it was really cool seeing the Justice League through Oliver's eyes.
hold on hold on wally’s on here right troy right
Edit: YEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAHHHHH the agenda’s spreading 🙌
Having Ollie on the roster is a win. I love Ollie so much. Having Black Canary is one of my favorite DC characters of all time. Also Zatanna
I would love to see Superman , Doctor Fate , Batman , Black lightning , Star Girl , Wonder Woman, Robin ( Tim Drake ) Green Arrow , Wild Cat , and and Black Canary as a Justice League roaster .
That AD transition was S-tier writing 😂😂😂
Now what if… Troyoboyo as Green Arrow?
Also, damn, that sponsor ad read was just too smooth (no pun intended)
9:30 Found em!!! Under the venom statue next to the miles mask and next to the Spider-Man amazing fantasy cover. Way too easy! Took me like three seconds.

- Cyborg (stays to mentor the next Teen Titans or joins the JL)
- Kid Flash -> Flash (Wally)

- Aqualad (Kaldur)
- Blue Beetle (Jaime)
12:50 YES PLEASE MAKE A VIDEO FOR JUSTICE LEAGUE DARK!!!
Here's a fun idea for how I want "Brave And The Bold"s post-credits scene to play out. It's a bit different, I admit, since it's gonna be the opposite of what most do. It'll tell us something about the past instead of teasing the future.
We cut to the Batcave, as Bruce and Alfred talk about how much changed since the earlier years of Batman. Alfred asks Brucee if he wants his original suit to be destroyed, with the new suit almost being complete and there not being another storage container for it. Bruce declines, however. He knows how much that suit matters to him. It reminds him of a darker, yet Simpler time for him. The camera pans over to the glass container holding the original bat-suit. Unlike his current suit, wich combines cloth with armor-padding, it's much more of an armor. The longer ears, the lack of a chin-piece, all of it. As Bruce finishes speaking and the camera fully reveals the suit we hear a tune. A very, *very* familiar tune. For it is a piano rendition... *Of the "The Batman" theme.*
Yeah. I fully hope Battinson is canon to the Gunn-Verse, as I call it.
Who do I have to bribe/murder to get Black Lighting onto the League?
Love this idea and roster to death, but the only thing I hope they don’t do with Wally West being the Flash is for them to erase his friendship with Dick Grayson/ Nightwing. That’s such a pivotal and famous aspect of BOTH characters.
Oh, I love Justice League, and the animated series of the 2000s, the first Jeff Jones arcs in New 52 were cool. Also, apparently, it's not in high esteem here, but I LIKE Zack Snyder's Justice League. I also think that they should not repeat the plot with Darkseid, but go in some other direction. I even agree that there should be some kind of shadow threat that our threats would fight, ala Crime Syndicate, or as it was correctly noted in the video - Vandal Savage. I'd rather see Barry Allen's Flash and Hal Jordan's Green Lantern on the screen, because I think there's a very cool chemistry between them. Jeff Jones demonstrated this well in the opening arc of his League. As far as I know, Barry Allen's Flash from New 52 was liked by readers, and it would be possible to transfer it to screens. And yes, I would also like to see the Green Arrow on the big screens as part of the league. The Martian Manhunter, too... BUT, to be honest, I think that the cinematic universe can do without a movie about the League for now. I would like to see solo projects about each character (or about a separate team of heroes) with a unique vision of the director and that these projects differ from each other. And the league can wait for now.
P.S.
I wouldn't say that at the end of the Snyder League, Superman just saved everyone and everything. His appearance was incredibly cool and epic, and it still gives me goosebumps. But in the end, the situation is saved by the Flash, rewinding time, and the Cyborg, disconnecting the mother boxes.
For the first Justice League Film the lineup I would go for is
1. Batman
2. Superman
3. Wonder Woman
4. Green Lantern
5. Green Arrow
6. Black Canary
7. Hawk-Girl
I think the second film could introduce The Flash, Aqua-Man, and Martian Man-Hunter though.
Put Supes at first and it is good.
I think to start we’ll have the JLI but my ideal team would be Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, Flash, Green Lantern, Aquaman, Martian Manhunter, Green Arrow, Black Canary and Hawkgirl
(for some other members there are Elongated Man, Plastic Man, Atom, Supergirl, Metamorpho, Huntress and Question)
This line up is great! I have a sort of idea where if superman has children somewhere down the line, Batman can give parenting advice to him.
Also, can you make a video detailing how you structure prewrites? I'm A writer trying to make prestige videos myself, and studying your videos are my class at this point. :)
Crazy sponsor transition
I wanna see Constantine. There are so many people who could play him and it'd help out the magic side of the DCU.
I'm not against Wally as The main Flash but I want Wally and Dick's friendship on screen because Titans never gave us that
Personally out of the Lanterns I want on the League, I want Kyle Rayner on as a rookie, I love Kyle and I think he'd be really fun if they have it so John and Hal have already been on the team so he has a bit of a legacy to live up to. Also, out of the Lanterns Kyle always has the coolest constructs.
We gotta get Wally. Then we can Segway into his best friend buddy cop movie with Nightwing
First Green arrow is by the venom statue, Econ’s Green Arrow is by the miles morales mask, the third Green Arrow by the spider-man comic on the shelf.
I could go for a Justice league dark Halloween special
Really enjoying these DC vids man. Keep giving us your ideas on how this new universe is gonna look like
If I were in charge, I'd introduce Superman and Batman in their own solo movies, then a World's Finest movie for them to team up, then a Justice League movie (with some other characters being introduced in either their own movies/miniseries, smaller team ups, or as cameos). As for the team itself, I would go with the trinity, Flash (they could start with Barry as the main Flash for a bit, introduce Wally as Kid Flash, spend some time with him as a member of the Teen Titans, have some sort of incident where Barry goes missing or is presumed dead, and then Wally takes up the mantle of Flash), Martian Manhunter (he could be a background character who shows up in different places in different forms secretly observing other heroes prior to co-founding the Justice League), Green Lantern (any of them, maybe some sort of adaptation of one of the larger Green Lantern events somewhere down the line), and Hawkgirl as the initial team. Green Arrow, Black Canary, Aquaman, Blue Beetle, Booster Gold, Zatanna, Plastic Man, Orion, etc. can come later.
I've had the same idea for a DC show universe surrounding batman, superman, flash, green lantern, green arrow, and a few others, with CW style crossovers (but less complicated) and 2 to 3 seasons each.
I think using The New Frontier as the basis of the DCU’s JL/general universe background would be awesome. I’m a huge fan of that book. Essential DC imo. I’m like 99.9% sure that The Centre is gonna be teased at the end of the Lanterns show.
I would love to see Black Lightning as member of the DCU Justice League.
My dream DCU Justice League Line Up besides the obvious choices of Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, The Flash, and Green Lantern (my top two choices are John Stewart because he was the one who introduced me to Green Lantern, and Jessica Cruz). The line up I would love to see are Vixen, Cyborg, Black Canary, Green Arrow, Martian Manhunter, Icon, Rocket, and Hawkgirl.
Yessssss!!! This is literally the perfect Justice League in my opinion. The perfect combo of s tier must haves, fan faves that havent been used, and some personal faves. If this was just the main roster I would have zero complaints
Really glad you said they should be 9 members 'cause that's what I always say they should start with.
Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Flash, Green Lantern, Black Canary, Hawkgirl, Zatanna, and Vixen.
And then Green Arrow, Martian Manhunter, and Black Lightning joins in the second movie.
And when it comes to the threat, I've always had the Crime Syndicate as my choice for the first movie. And I've always had it in my head that they would start already sort of teaming up sometimes, but not truly as a team, and the movie has them learn to trust each other, and learn from each other. But doing the New 52 "cross paths during the story" thing could actually work for that too; I think it could be interesting for these separate heroes to see a team of mirrored versions of themselves before they're a team.
Honestly, I love the idea of having nine members. If it were me, I would do the main seven members from the Justice League animated series, but also include Aquaman and the Green Arrow, with Metamorpho, Guy Gardner, Hal Jordan, and Metamorpho on standby or something. I hope the DCU does well with the League, considering the fact that James Gunn has said that he's taking cues from the animated universe.
I would like to see an adaptation of Kyle Rayner. Not because he's my favourite GL (That would be Guy), but because he has been pushed aside in the comics for a while now, wish is a shame, because Kyle is a very fun character, who i think would adapt really well to the big screen.
We need a Justice League Dark video.
the haircut is fire
my 9 picks are so obvious but it would probably be:
1. batman
2. superman
3. wonder woman
4. the flash
5. green lantern
6. aquaman
7. martian manhunter
8. hawkgirl/hawkman
9. black canary and/or green arrow
maybe with characters like zatanna, shazam, plastic man, firestorm, the atom, red tornado, black lightning and captain atom showing up every once in a while i guess???
i've never really liked cyborg as a core member of the justice league, i liked him better with the titans, idk lol
i think the most important thing they need to do when deciding the justice league roster (or any team, for that matter) is that every character is put on there for a reason. not just because they know fans want to see them, or because a popular comic did it. they need to have a vision for what the dynamics and conflicts within the team will be, and slot in characters that fill those roles well.
that said, if i don't see zatanna, i might cry a little
I think it would be interesting if Jay Garrick is the Flash for the first saga of James Gunn's DCU. Then do Barry for the next saga.
I see that cyborg erasure just settled in properly 😂
Back to the titans he goes
Which is good. My man always belonged with the Titans.
I love how excited we’re all getting for the DCU! I hope they get this right!
Besides the amazing video, the new haircut really suits you
Dude you’ve gotta mention Zatanna’s relationship with Bruce. It’s so interesting and complex, would love to see it on screen.
Barry and Bruce should really be the same age. Especially if we are getting Damian Wayne already. Bruce and Barry can be the oldtimers in their 50s
Above all else, I want Justice League to be *fun*. Just a good, heartfelt superhero film with good characterization. These are super HEROES, people, folks that go out of their way go help.
I just noticed the how you are treating yourself to 19 inches of venom! Yay to self love!
My ideal justice league lineup is: Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, the flash (Barry), green lantern (Hal Jordan, then guy gardener, thenJohn Stewart), cyborg (not at first, same with Wally west), Martian man hunter, green arrow, aqua man, and plastic-man.
A Justice League Dark prewrite would be awesome dude.
I think my ideal Justice League would be the trinity, John Stewart, Barry Allen, Aquaman, Martian Manhunter, Hawkwoman and either Green Arrow or Black Canary, one of them definitely.
Your lineup is exactly how i imagined for a DCU Justice League. I think it's perfect. I would also add Plastic Man, Elongated Man, Atom (Any version), Captain Marvel (Or Shazam! if you prefer to call him that), Hawkman as well to the roster.
My ideal roster of 9
- Superman
- Batman
- WonderWoman
- Green Lantern (John Stewart)
- The Flash (Wally West)
- Hawk Girl
- Booster Gold
- Martian Manhunter
- Elongated Man
