        Wild justification, does that mean that hot Aussie chick does’t get to be Girl Joker any more? I saw her in that doll movie and my god she has a nice patooshka

            What about that guy who played He-Joker? I think his name was Order of the Phoenix or something dumb like that, his patooshka was no where near as nice as this Robbie you speak of

              Joaquin Phoenix isn’t playing Joker either.

              It’s a soft reboot, so most of the characters will be recast.

                Even Peacemaker? They had that guy who had ice cream in China, I think he was in Fast and a Furious

                  Well, it’s complicated.

                  John Cena is staying as Peacemaker, and I think that extends to anyone who has worked with Gunn in the past. So Viola Davis is staying as Amanda Waller, and then he has his usual posse of actors, like his brother Sean Gunn.

      That’s sorta how comics work, different people get to take a swing.

      Also we’ve had 6 (EON) James Bonds, do you feel the same way about that character?

      We’ve had 4 Supermen, the original Christopher Reeve, a short lived revival with Brandon Routh, the most recent Henry Cavill and now our forth iteration. Sure maybe this new one is coming a little too fast but it also looks quite different.

      Doubt, but there’s kids growing up who haven’t experienced it yet I suppose.

      Would be nice for the rest of us if the studio execs took a risk on something different every once in a while. Especially regarding the super hero genre…yeesh.

        In terms of taking a risk the next film up is Supergirl. We haven’t had her in live action since the mid 80s. Following that is Clayface who has yet to appear in live action.

        Obviously we’ve done a few Superman films, but it looks like plenty of new characters after that. (And obviously we’ll still get the big hits like Batman eventually, but plenty of new options as well.)
