The Fastest MOVIE alive?!?

For me, this could the most exciting news of the entire summer. My personal favorite superhero, The Flash, is getting the old Hollywood makeover. And as much as I am on the fence about Ryan Reynolds being cast as Hal Jordan in the new Green Lantern movie, I think DC is gonna really make this one for the fans and get it right. They are bringing on one of the hottest writers in comics to do the script treatment. The man who is responsible for many classic tales in the Flash universe, Geoff Johns. I was so excited to hear this news I dug through a box of old VHS tapes to find the original movie pilot for the TV show from the 90's. DC is really taking the necessary steps to close the gap between themselves and Marvel. With a slew of films in the works, expect DC to be going head to head with some of Marvel's blockbusters in the future. For us comic book fans, here's to hoping they get it right, do the characters justice, and bring our favorite stories to life on the screen!

Dude.... the flash? That's your favorite supper hero? What about spiderman? What about batman? What about Wolverine, The Punisher, any of the X-Men or the Avengers? (besides Northstar of course.... the only way to be gayer than the flash is to have similar powers to his, but also acutally enjoy the occasional C*ck-Meat sandwich).

Anyway, I'm looking forward to the movie... it'll be something to hold us all over until Star Trek XII.

First and foremost, Anonymous!?!?! if you have something to say then say it. Don't keep yourself as some mysterious shit talker who will become the douche of this site. Second, I grew up on DC books and I've never been a fan of the mainstream hero. The Flash has just always been cool to me and if you really knew what the fuck you were talking about you would understand how much power he actually has (ever read Kingdom Come?). Third, the rest of us here at CCG are into SUPER-heroes not supper-heroes (spell check genius), but seeing as you must be a fat fuck with food on the brain you got distracted. Lastly, Star Trek, are you fucking kidding me!?! I think you gave your secret indentity away right there, Mr. P, but that shit just screams "I wanna have gay anal sex with anyone who thinks Star Wars is inferior". By the way, Star Wars is the king!
