Joss Whedon offers up Advice for JUSTICE LEAGUE Movie

We've been waiting to see DC Entertainment and Warner Bros. develop a Justice League film for years. It was really close to happening at one point, but it fell through. Warner Bros. is still trying to find a way to bring the superhero team to the big screen, and it doesn't look like it's going to happen anytime soon. I don't think their DC properties will ever get to the caliber of the Marvel films though. With the exception of Batman, had Nolan not jumped on board that franchise it would have ended up being like the rest of their DC movies. 

The director of The Avengers, Joss Whedon, recently weighed in on the matter offering up some advice on what DC and the WB need to do to make a successful Justice League movie....

It's enormously difficult to take very disparate characters and make them work. And DC has a harder time with it than Marvel because their characters are from a bygone era. Their characters were bigger than we were. They've amended that but Marvel really cracked the code in terms of 'Oh, they're just like us.' A dose of that sort of veracity that Marvel really started with Iron Man, I think you need to use that as a base.

Maybe the studio just needs to hire Whedon to develop their movie for them? I'm sure none of the fans would object that... would you? It would almost guarantee an awesome Justice League movie. Whedon has obviously proved that he can take a epic ensemble cast and superhero team and make a great film. 

I agree with what Whedon says here, and that's why I was never a big DC comics guy. It was harder for me to relate to the characters. I don't know why but I could connect with the Marvel characters more. I'd still love to see a Justice League movie, it could be epic! So hopefully the WB gets their act together and finds a way to make it happen.
