Will the "Justice League" Movie be Based on a 1980 DC Story Arc?

I wonder how many people thought "Hey it's that Arrow Guy from Smallville in Avengers" ? Actually I think I read on here about someone who's friend wondered where Superman was

And LOL at "it will probably be based on it in the same way that X-Men 2 was based on "God Loves, Man Kills." In other words, inspired but a liberal adaptation."
You could also say Dark Knight Rises was inspired by "No Man's Land" but too was loosely adapted. Still they both turned out to be cool movies. So maybe having something to ground the story on before taking off is a good idea.

With all the characters that make up the Justice League, I can't honestly see them throwing in The Justice Society as well. Too many to adequately put into the story. (Although seeing Barry and Jay fight together would thrill me to death.)

Also, throwing in the Justice Society would seriously not morph with the current DC52. I know....different media, but I still think they are going to make the movie (assuming they ever get their butts in gear) as close to the current book universe as possible if only for hoped-for crossover sales. Which would be, I believe, wishful thinking on their part.)

My other problem is who are they going to get to be Green Lantern? If Hal Jordon (the most likely) would it again be Reynolds acting like Wally West? (kidding.)

Not going to see the movie if it doesn't feature the Big Seven or centers on Batman first, foremost, and center. I've had enough of Bruce Wayne.

That's nothing. My sisters friend had seen Iron Man 1 and 2, and towards the end of Avengers she turned to my sister and asked if the guy in armour was Wolverine.

Not that many, because most of the people who saw Avengers had probably never heard of, let alone seen, Smallville.
