David Goyer off of "The Flash"

That is very strange - perhaps merely a coincidence, but two in one day? Very strange. Seems a little reminiscent of when Kevin Smith had his script bounced from a Superman film plan.

Sorry for re-posting this post from mlaforcer in this section guys and gals, but I wanted to ask you if hateful and acidic posts like this are permitted on Mania? What are the rules and restrictions as to what is and isn't permitted? Karl, anyone care to elaborate? This was originally posted under '"Aqua Teen" stunt gets bomb squads attention'. Is there a limit as to how far one poster like mlaforcer can go before they border on pushing hate, intolerance and even post stalking another member on purpose? #35 - mlaforcer [Feb 3 2007, 12:57 am CST] Are you kidding me you pathetic f**king whiner...You obviously have far too much time on your hands...And don't say you did not attack anyone here because when you attacked the cartoon you attacked those that enjoy watching it...No I think it should be Ninjabitch...I'm going to have a good time taking shots at you whenever possable and call it whatever you want but as long as the words strike a chord then I'm cool with it...And no one said you can't use Smackdown, that's just something I would normaly here from my son who happens to be 14... You think your cute don't you? I will have to use tactics such as vulgar language and insults to get anything through to you, so if you don't like it you better stay off my radar...this site may be about opinions but that don't exclude them from being either unintelligent, moronic, Narcissistic or credible and most of yours land in the unitelligent and moronic catagory...Like I said you and Starblazer move on down to Boston and get an underground bunker where there is no light because remember, your shadow is after you...Keep living in fear it does nothing to improve your thoughts and opinions here at Maniac... Nuff said....;->

the news: wierd, but I didn't see Goyer as the right fit for the flash anyway... the bitching: ningavvitch, just ignore him, it's not that big a deal, you are entitlled to your opinion and he is entitled to his. Here's mine, your Smackdowns can be a little annoying, you that's ok, he should just do what I do and skip them, and mlaforcer is one of this sites biggest complainers. His posts have more bitches than a kennel clup. He has more whine than Martha's vinyard... but here he is passionately defending something he likes..... It's cool to disagree, just don't dismiss

The Flash in my humble opinion wouldn't make a good film. All the guy does is run around fast in a red suit. An hour plus movie of someone running? I don't follow Flash comics so I dont know. Maybe he has some cool villains that can make the film good. When is the Aquaman movie going to be announced? I think that could actually make for a better film.

Doesn't sound good that he left.

Gotcha madmanic999 :-) I'll slack off the "smackdown" also as you have explained it far more curtesously.

ninjavvitch: spirited comments and the occasional jab are fairly common on this site as you well know and yeah, mlaforcer went a bit far, but you can't take it seriously. Any time you post an honest opinion someone is going to think its crap. When it comes to your smackdown as you call it I would suggest making your point quickly and then leaving it at that. Excessively long posts tend to be self-indulgent. As far as the Flash goes I think it would tank regardless. It may have been a good comic (I don't know) but as a movie it just doesn't seem interesting for reasons others have mentioned.

ninjavvitch - Hold a sec - you start your "smackdown" in the other post - insult the cartoon and anyone who watches it - then come whining to this thread to cry about someone telling you to STFU? You are a ninjabitch. On topic: Is The Flash really that much of a loss? It was done as a show and was pretty much used up there - what more could they do with it?

LOL...Are you kidding me? Who is this MLAforcer. I really can't understand the point he is trying to make. This person hides behind a keyboard and thinks he is tough because he can throw out some hate...Lets keep it clean..We all can agree to disagree. Anyhow, I disagree. The Flash isn't necessarily a hot property. Wonder Woman though...wow. Joss Whedon no longer being attached is very sad. I believe he would have made a perfect fit.

Wow... two lame super hero movies ditched in one day. They will most likely add some terrible writer to make a movie with no plot and lots of pointless explosions, which of course will make tons of money.
