Don't bother. People will make a case of mayimbe not being trustworthy anyway.

Slash are usually pretty good. One of my favorite film sites with an excellent podcast.
That's the thing tho, its not Slash who's reporting it.

The rumor doesn't make sense tho. And it's still a rumor. People straight up believing it is incomprehensible.
That reshoot rumor is laughable.
That podcast is horrible. They seem like good dudes, but my god, they are so whiny.
Film Junk all the way

JK Simmons is free, though. 3000% more Gordon in Justice League!

You guys do realize they could be reworking the movie without the actors present right? The Dark Tower movie has been working for the last like 6 months on redoing the special effects. They were just smart enough to not release a trailer before they were done/close to finishing up. Atleast if true it sounds like the reshoots were requested by Affleck and not WB higher ups and can potentially help the movie greatly.

Yeah but that doesn't mean everyone should believe rumors.
That was special effects, this is talking about overhauling the whole movie.TWICE.
Can't say I disagree. They do come across as a whiny bunch. Cannata can seem that way for certain even tho I like him in general.
I stopped reading their sight regularly once they embraced more click-bait titles and articles a few years back. Though I think they've since toned it down since their regular readers hated it.

I might as well go as far as claiming the rumor ain't true as the source alone is enough to discredit it.

Gal looks toned after giving birth
Mayimbe saying Zemeckis is the front runner for Flash via The Wrap
He just signed onto a movie with Steve Carrell set for release in November 2018.

They'd have to start filming ASAP if that's the case huh?
Nah I misread, he's already working on a film with a novemeber 2018 release date, Flash is probably 2019. '18 only has Aquaman for now.
Lame.
It's another movie with Steve Carrell.
Also this is a report from weeks ago that Mayimbe said was not true, but is now saying is. lol

No, he's about to film a movie for a November 2018 release. The Flash would be after that.

I mean that first picture is before her WW workout lol.
To be fair, I think he said that he wasn't in talks to direct, just taking meetings along with many other directors. Could have changed by now

Is this a situation where Warner Bros doesn't know who to actually back and are just throwing it out there to see how the internet reacts to each candidate? lol

It all depends on how long Warner Bros wants to wait on a Flash movie. Zemeckis isn't going to be able to do shit until the end of next year. I don't think Warner Bros wants to wait until potentially 2020 for a Flash film. Just get Raimi on Flash and Vaughn on Superman and tell Zemeckis he gets first dibs on whatever is swirling around towards the end of next year.
Posted this is the other thread but it's probably more at home here...,
"It's interesting that we keep hearing the same variation of names for these future DCU gigs. Between Vaughn, Zemeckis and Raimi I wouldn't be surprised if they all ended up directing DC projects at some point.
I have a feeling that it'll be Zemeckis for The Flash and either Vaughn or Raimi for the next Man Of Steel film. We won't see The Flash until 2019 (or more likely 2020) at the very earliest so there's plenty of time for this all to come to fruition.
Vaughn has been rumoured to be getting into bed with Warners under the new regime for months so I wouldn't be surprised if the studio gives him the pick of whatever he wants to do in the DCU or otherwise."

It doesn't have to be a Reeves homage but he could inject some Silver Age fun into the 90s-style action. Classic hero archetype action with modern angst sort of.
You aren't going to get the most out of Bizarro, Mxyzptlk, or even more serious villains like Brainiac if you don't have a little self-awareness. Even Clark's relationship with Lois can use some flavor. This Superman can be as serious as the director/execs want but the source material can put him in all sorts of situations that flip his/the audience's perspective. Like if he found Supergirl or Kandor. Or Krypto?
I think sticking to the epic/mythical/serious take on its characters would help differentiate DC from Marvel. I'm all for that. But we can have fun without distracting from the story like the competition does sometimes.

Excellent news, I want the three of them. At the same time.
Seriously tho, I would love for Raimi to tackle Superman, I seriously doubt he'd pull a Singer. Just let the man work with the villains he wants and it should be okay.

Vaughn is my first choice. Though people like to give Raimi crap, and deservedly so, for Spider-Man 3, the original Spider-Man is easily my favorite and the best comic book movie of all time. If Raimi only does one movie, it would be okay as he wouldn't be tempted to recycle his plot in future instalments.
I despise the idea of a director making a bad movie on purpose to fuck with producers. But Spidey 1 and 2 were GOLDEN.
Those 2 and the first Thor/Captain America are movies where I've seen people crap on but those were absolutely the best movies you were going to get for that material at the time they were made.

Funny how the day turned around for DC after both of those threads were pretty much debunked and now 3 great directors are up for 2 of the movies.

That is a fun rumor. Doubt it's true, but fun to read regardless. Second rumor with the "Clown and his bitch" Gordon line, which is interesting.
Who the fuck craps on Spidey 1 and 2???? They have terrible taste

Raimi could probably direct a really good Gorilla Grodd
also they should adapt JLApes

Me because those movies much like the X-Men movies don't have Spider-Man. They have some elements of the Spider-Man character, but none of his core characteristics that stay around regardless of who is writing it or any of that. Good to alright movies, awful Spider-Man movies.
