Flash Movie Coming Along At Turtle Speed
There are some crises even a superhero can’t get past and union strikes are high at the top of that list. At a presser promoting the upcoming Dark Knight movie you may have heard about, producer Charles Roven said Warner Bros. has not given up on The Flash.
But Roven admits the writers’ strike and the looming actors’ strike haven’t helped the process out. While The Flash can move at light speed, travel through time on a treadmill and perform other such feats, lengthy contract negotiation is not among his skills.
Until then, I guess we’ll have to be satisfied with Flash adventures in comic form. Or we could check out the cult classic TV show from the 1990’s.

I really enjoyed that show…Made it a point not to miss it…DYK, the costume design from that show inspired The Flash comic artists to render it more like the show’s 3D-look instead of the painted-on finish they drew before.
When they do get the players & contract done, I think Mark Waid should definitely be among the scripters…if not the only one.
Speaking of players, why couldn’t John Wesley Shipp just reprise his role of The Flash for the movie? I haven’t seen him in any other silver screen flims.
–Godspeed–

they will want to have a younger “Flash” to bring in the females and kids.
