Yeah, Ben has nerd in him for sure. I recall him rubbing shoulders with Jay and Silent Bob in a few movies but to me I'd like WB to get a guy with a more proven track record. The Town was great, I haven't seen Gone Baby Gone (I think or I did and it's become forgettable for me) and I don't think a 3rd movie would solidify his skill as a director, especially when it comes to taking on a task like a JL movie.
Man, you ain't seen Gone Baby Gone or you wouldn't be talkin like that. That movie was superb. Watch that, add the Town, and if he nails Argo, why shouldn't he get a shot like this?
Dirk, for your scenario, you realize you have 3 big time Justice League movies all coming out in the same year? That's basically impossible. No way they could time things out that way, even if it was every 3-4 months, that's a TON of cash put into those movies all at the same time. I don't see that happening. I get your angle, it was similar to mine, but the timeframe would have to be altered. (not even counting summer time release dates, holiday dates, etc to maximize exposure and such)
Blues is dead on. My only care would be Bat v Supes, with that Kryptonite ring fight in the sewer with Supes thankin Bat. "What are friends for...?" That ****, on screen, gonna see this dude cryin all over again.
