If I'm casting the Justice League film:
Superman: Henry Cavill - Obvious choice, I thought he played Superman well and he looks the part...plus he's a;ready Superman.
Batman: Matt Bomer or Jensen Ackels - Both look the part which is the most important factor to me, and Jensen is already pretty muscular, this Batman can't be bulky like Bale. He needs to be lean, strong, and lightning quick and brilliant.
Wonder Woman: Jamie Alexander - She already has experience playing a super in Marvel by playing Sif in Thor....but she has a bigger role in Thor 2 and it'll be a problem to have her cross over to DC. A lot of women look the part but only Adrianne Palicki has pulled it off before so she'd fill in for Jamie.
Flash: Bradely Cooper - This one has been beaten to death but Cooper is a fantastic actor, can play funny in a serious environment, looks a lot like Barry Allan, and has a ton of name recognition. Second choice would be Chris Pine for similar reasons.
Green Lantern(Hal Jordon): Josh Duhamel - Ryan Reynolds played the part well and it's unfortunate they did a bad job writing the movie otherwise he would have been an ideal Hal Jordon. It's a bad idea to go back to that movie so we'll start fresh and Josh looks the part and is a great actor in dramatic and action roles. Plus he's only a couple years older than reynolds so age isn't a big deal.
Aquaman: Alexander Skarsgard - He looks just like Arthur and he's a fantastic actor, plus his father already stars in the Avengers and Marvel line of movies so I'm sure Alex would love to go at the other side. All he needs to do is bulk up. Second choice is Liam Mcyntire/
Martian Manhunter : Idris Elba - Assuming J'onn will be in the film there's no better choice than Idris. Second choice is Peter Mensah

As someone who basically knows everything about Batman and a ton about the Justice League I'm confident Goyer is going to f*ck this up with his "script." Snyder has the potential if he makes it like 300 or Watchmen, but why make it differently from MOS? Plus, why use the Drak Knight Returns Bat logo for the title logo? It's fat and ugly. Also, I hated Bale as Batman, his voice was so over the top, he was incredibly slow, and Nolan copped out big time with the whole Robin fiasco at the end of Rises. The Justice League Batman HAS to be completely different from Nolans because Nolans was set in a realistic world, Bale's Batman wouldn't last 10 seconds with the Justice League. My choices for the next Batman wouldn't even humor bringing back Bale or Josepg Gordon Levitt. S uperboy I think Liam would be a much better Aquaman personally or Alexander Skarsgard. I think Jenson Ackles, Eion Bailey, Michael Fassbender, Anson Mount, Matt Bomer, or Josh Holloway could be great Bruce Wayne's/Batman If they get the same guys who write the comics for Aquaman, Wonder Woman, and Batman to write their films they'll have no problems making them great as the comics are top notch. Goyer actually has good ideas, he just needs to work on his screenplay writing (that was the major flaw about Man of Steel). And the logo was just a tease DB, it won't be used for the actual movie. As for your choices for Batman, Jenson Ackles is too boyish looking to play Bruce Wayne/Batman, he seems more fit for the Flash. And Michael Fassbender is already Magneto in the new X-men movies. I have complete trust in Zach Snyder because he always cast well for his characters.

I have complete trust in Zach Snyder because he always cast well for his characters. Exactly, his story line and summary was actually well written, but he f*cked up transitioning it into a script and that's why I'm worried because the script is what is seen in the film. I was concerned about the logo because Snyder has said a lot that Returns is by far his favorite bat book and he quoted from it at Comic-Con so I was worried he'd be drawing too much from that story. I can agree with that, Matt Bomer is my first choice anyway but I think Jensen is a very talented actor and could pull it off. Michale Fassbender is way too old for the part anyway, you can't have 30 year old superman and 40 year old Batman. Ideally I want all the characters to be the same age except for Martian Manhunter since he's like 125. The actors already having characters in the Marvel Universe is a problem I've faced with coming up with casts but I think if they're not in the Avengers then there's no problems. Snyder has a lot of potential but he squandered it a little with Man of Steel, they need to make the 2nd one more like Watchmen

Could have said the same thing about Robert Downey Jr. or Mark Ruffalo and it worked out. Bradley was in the A-Team which was heavy action mixed with comedy and that's what the Flash will be doing in the Justice League if written correctly. The Flash just needs to have great on screen chemistry with Hal Jordon.

You made a lot of solid points. Snyder has big potential with this next movie, it could be on The Dark Knight level. Man of Steel was better than Batman Begins in my opinion (just a more entertaining movie even though Batman is my favorite) but is not on the level of The Dark Knight Rises and The Dark Knight. This Man of Steel sequel is looking to be one of the kings of comic book movies. Snyder does need to make it more like Watchmen I agree.

The Dark Knight movies should be so different though and I'm worried Snyder will try to make the Batman too similar to Bale's. All Snyder and Goyer need to do is incorporate World's Finest and maybe take from a few other books and you have your movie. Amy Adams will obviously be in it, I hope Brian Cranston gets the call to be Jim Gordon even though Gary was perfect we need someone new.
It'll be interesting what villains they use. Lex will probably be the main villain, but I wonder if they'll have him team up with a Bat villain or have Luthor bring in another Superman villain like Bizarro or Metallo.

As for Avengers 2, they said they're using the Age of Ultron story. I don't know how many of you read comics, but that line just finished up like a month ago and it was a 10 part thing and it was confusing as sh*t. It started off amazing and incredibly bad-a**, but Lots of time travel and heroes that the average person wouldn't know at all and those characters have like 4 different universal versions in the same story and it ended up losing me. Wasn't pleased with the decision but Joss knows what he's doing so I still have high hopes for that.
Potential problems or even potential hopes is that Age of Ultron heavily featured Wolverine, the Fantastic 4, and Spiderman.....but Spiderman will have to be cut since he's property of Sony for films. It'll be interesting to see what they do with all these characters that had big parts in the story.

Diane Lane and Laurence Fishburne are also back, and I doubt if Jim Gordon will be used. I do know the next villain will be Lex Luthor, and I think Brainiac should be used as the secondary villain. There was in fact a Brainiac easter egg in Man of Steel after Superman destroyed the world engine (you can see Brainiac's symbol).

They were great in the film and for an older woman Diane is beautiful! Hm, Brainiac is an interesting choice, I think he or Darkseid should be saved until the Justice League film since they're seen as the most powerful villains in a lot of ways. I think Major Metallo would work best since he was Luthors body guard and he can give a great reason for Superman to need Batman since his chest is full of kryptonite Superman would need help to take him down.

Again, you could say the same thing about any hero's villain that they've used so far in any movie. It's all about how they portray the character, and plus he's a metal robot death trap and those are popular these days. I'm just saying I think it works best for this specific movie. I think Brainiac can be saved for a later film because I want him used as well.

Tyler Hoechlin is apparently the front runner for Batman. He's been screen testing with Cavill.

Not familiar with any of his acting but he damn sure looks the part for my view of this Batman. A lot of die hard Bat fans aren't happy though as a lot of them want Jon Hamm or Michael Fassbender but they have no clue what they're talking about.

Finally saw the Conjuring. I thought it was pretty scary. The fact that its based on a true story makes it that much scarier though. Those are the ones that get me the most.
