Forums: Justice League: Mortal Cast

I am a comic book freak,trust me I know my research on comics. I can deal with changing the story lines in the movie, differing from the comic, thats cool...thats what makes them producers, to creat their own views to please the viewers.But,what I cant take is bad casting, the actor has to act, true,but the have to look the part. The whole casting for the JLA movie blows. The Justice League members are somewhat bigger and bulky and mddle aged, not young small and oriental. Hows this cast?

Superman - John Haymes Newton
Batman - Brandon Molale
Green Lantern:
Hal Jordan - Jon Hamm
Kyle Rayner - Carlucci Weyent
John Stewart - Tyrese Gibson
Wonder Woman - Lucy Lawless
Flash - Mark Paul Gosselar
Martian Manhunter - Christopher Judge
Hawkman - Matthew McConahey
Hawkwoman - Isla Fisher
Green Arrow - Brad Pitt
Black Canary - Willa Ford
The Atom - Casper Van Dien
Aquaman - James Wyclek
Plastic Man - David Conrad
Captain Marvel - Daniel Cudmore

Mongul - Kane
Amazo - Mark Jeffrey Miller

Horrible casting!! Im a major DC freak and SERIOUSLY your casting choice for Superman, Batman, Hal Jordan, Hawkman, Hawkwoman, GreenArrow, Aquaman, and Plasticman are all very bad choices. However i do approve of your choices for Kyle Rayner, John Stewart, WonderWoman, Martian Manhunter, The Atom and Captian Marvel. I dont necessarily approve of your choices for Black Canary but Im sure i could live with it. Better then Alaina Huffman from the Smallville series. BUT seriously BRAD PITT AS GREEN ARROW !! NO WAY!
As for the villians Id like to see your cast play Darkseid, Sinestro, Black Adam, Gorilla Grodd, and Mongul, BUT the casting for Maxwell Lord, Brainiac, LEX LUTHOR, Solomon Grundy, JOKER, Despero, DEATHSTROKE, Lobo, and Amazo were quite terrible. Id have to say i was even offended by the choice for Lex, Joker, Deathstroke, and Amazo. The first three being some of my FAV villians from the comics!! But Nice Try :)

John Haymes Newton wouldn't have been a bad choice for Superman, but he is 46 now.

My pick would be Joe Manganiello, he has the look and was in the top running to play Superman in the new Man Of Steel movie.

Brandon Molale is a decent actor at best, I personality don't think he has the look or acting chops to pull off Batman.

Steven Strait is my pick for the dark knight, he is young and unknown to most, but has proven he can handle action in Sky High and The Covent.

Your pick for Hal Jordan is similar to your pick for Superman, Jon Hamm has the look and acting ability to pull off a superhero but he is a little to old now.

Mine would be Josh Hartnett for Hal.

Carlucci Weyantas as Kyle Rayner is a good pick. The same goes for Tyrese as John Stewart.

Lucy Lawless kicked a** as Xena, but unfortunately is to old for Wonder Woman.

Wonder Woman is a tough role to cast, hopefully they go the same route casting an unknown with potential like they do with Superman. But if I had to pick right now I would go with Tanit Phoenix.

Mark Paul Gosselar as the Flash is by far the worst pick you have so far ( just my opinion).

Ryan Reynolds would have made a much better Flash then Green Lantern so he's my pick.

Christopher Judge is a legend but his time has past. Lance Reddick as Martian Manhunter for me.

Matthew McConahey as Hawkman is decent.

Isla Fisher as Hawkwoman, not bad.

Brad Pitt as Green Arrow, a couple of years ago yea but he would have made a better Captain American then Green Arrow.

Willa Ford as Black Canary is ok.

Casper Van Dien as The Atom is another ok pick.

James Wyclek as Aquaman is a no.

David Conrad as Plastic Man is a great pick.

Daniel Cudmore looks the part, but doesn't have the emotional chops necessary for Captain Marvel.

My pick would be Brandon Routh, even though he was Superman.

Nathan Jones is good for Darkseid

Never really cared for Maxwell Lord, so I can't say who I would like to play him.

Daniel Day Lewis as Sinestro is a good pick.

Billy Zane as Brainiac, not really sure about that. I thought James Marsters did a great job on Smallville so he's my pick.

Ruben Halse as Lex Luthur :(. Now Billy Zane would make a great Lex Luther.

The Rock as Black Adam, one word "PERFECT".

I hate Solomon Grundy so I don't really care who plays him.

Bob Sapp as Gorilla Grodd is decent.

John Heder as The Joker is a joke.

Adrien Brody is my pick to play the clown prince.

Michael Clark Duncan would have made a good Despero, may he RIP.

Sam Elliot is good for Deathstroke the Terminator.

Andrew Bryniarski as Lobo is good.
