Ooooohhhh..... SPIFFY!

I'm interested to see who they get to voice Ollie. The casting in the DC animated films is usually pretty damn good.

[Gabe De Los Muertos]

I hope they use whoever did his voice in JLU.

This is awesome. I remember Bruce Timm saying that Green Arrow was one of the characters he would like to do an animated feature of, if he could chose anyone he wanted (as opposed to the studio just telling him to make a Superman movie, or whatever).

Frankly, I would like it if they gave chance to new-blood. I think it's best not have one voice actor voice a character for too long a time. Look at Kevin Conroy and Batman, Conroy has voiced the character for 10 years or so and some fans can't accept an Animated Batman if Conroy isn't voicing and frankly, I'm glad they got someone else for B:tBatB, NF and UtH. I'm sure there are other voice actors out there who could do a better job than the so-called 'iconic' voice actors.

Ten minutes long?

I can get a better GA fix from JLU. Ollie deserves his own 90 minute feature. If they are so worried about him being 2nd tier and not selling enough DVD's then by all means, recreate some things from HTH which would have no trouble selling thousands upon thousands of copies, just like the trades have after eight reprints.

To quote Shakespeare, "I do bite my thumb, sir."

To be fair, the Batman: Gotham Knight was made up of stories that were only about 10 to 15 minutes in length and they were pretty good. Even my friend who is a HARD CORE B:TAS purist really enjoyed the DVD.


But I agree that Ollie needs his own animated feature all to himself. But hey, maybe if these prove popular he'll get one.

Or better yet, a DC Animated DVD feature that kind of updates but basically still tells the "Green Lanter/Green Arrow: Hard Traveling Heroes" arc. That would be cool.

Kin Shriner. And he did a great job. And that's not just because I had huge crush on him when he was Scotty Baldwin on General Hospital.

As long as they throw in the junkie Roy scene, I'm in.

They need to recreate this:

[FeminineMystique]

They need to recreate this:

I know this was a big, serious story and one of the early examples of comics being "Relevant" and such...but Green Arrow's expression on this cover does just make me crack up. I can't help it

Also just to point out: Hal Jordan? TOTAL DICK.

Seriously, his supposed friend...the guy he's been travelling around America with, who's saved his life more than once...has just learned that his adopted ward is on drugs

And he's stood there, looking as smug as possible and trying to score points.

JERK

[Typo Lad]

That Hal Jordan is a dick should be no shocvk to anyone.

That's mainly because Contoy does a great job as Batman,

And i like BRave and the bold, but i keep thinking it's Hoss Delgado under the mask.

Typo Lad living up to his name :P


But seriusly, making a PG13 "Snowbirds" movie would be weird today.
and I don't even think they could do it unless it got an R. Didn't they have to remove the Alcohol stuff from Iron-Man 2 because of the ban on topics like that in PG13 movies?
