THE LEGION OF SUPER-HEROES TRAVEL BACK FROM THE 31ST CENTURY TO HELP THE ERADICATOR ---------------------- Discovering that the corruption in the timestream is being caused by Brainiac's (Scott Wentworth) meddling, Brainiac 5 sends Legion of Super-Heroes members Cosmic Boy, Saturn Girl (guest star Akemi Chandler), Chameleon Boy (Glen Bartram) and Dream Girl back to the past in order to find the missing Superman (Brian Tubbs) and end the evil machine's reign of terror, all while attempting to free The Eradicator (guest star Dan Conlin) from his demons.
@TheDCVerse And they have to bring up some live-action Teen Titans or even Legion. If GL can be done and it's "out there" with its use of multiple aliens, Legion should be able to happen. I'm sure Johns wants it happen in the future.

@Lencho01 No doubt. Lots of freedom in a movie multiverse.

@TheDCVerse And they could adapt plenty of stories or Elseworld stuff instead of leaving it to the animated teams who are always limited by the 70 minute time limit.

@Lencho01 Oh, now that would be pretty spectacular. A movie multiverse actually gives them a lot of freedom, now that you mention it. Hope something similar comes out of that.

@TheDCVerse They could also be setting up some sort of Multiverse. That would be interesting to see. Like just have the idea of different universes existing, but never going that much into like some sort of Crisis event. Kind of like what they did with the new Star Trek.

@Lencho01 A very valid point. As much as fanboys would squeal over JLA, I have to agree with you here. I think you could easily just do solo films for the next ten years and pull in a crazy amount of cash. There's so many stories you can tell, you could literally go on forever.

@TheDCVerse From a business stand point, there may be no need for a JLA. If they push hard with the marketing with GL to be big like BB/TDK/TDKR, and pull that off with Flash, Supes, and WW, they'd be in a better position than Marvel. The DC films are pretty much replacing Harry Potter as their go-to tent pole films. Stretching it out would instead of going for a team up could make them a lot of money. Even so, I think they want to see the reaction to GL. If good, they'll connect it for sure.

@Lencho01 It's very wasteful. You're setting up a perfectly fine movie universe here with GL, which logic says culminates in the Justice League, and you're just going to ignore it. I don't exactly like how Marvel is handling it with Avengers, but at least they're keeping the movies slightly in line with each other.

@TheDCVerse Well, I can't imagine Supes or GL popping up right next to Nolanbat. So, I'm fine with JLA not using him. I'd like something more like the DCAU Batman. Sounds like Nolan's film ends in such a way that WB has to reboot. Why not spin-off the new Batman out of JLA?
It's the Supes and GL stuff I have issue with. I assumed GL would be the beginning of the DC Film Universe and I don't see why the new Supes can't be part of it. Unless there's a Supes-less JLA due to the court case.

@Lencho01 Really not getting that part. This Nolan logic of "realistic Batman not working in JLA" is quite stupid, if you ask me. Anything can work in any universe if you present it in the right way. Just sounds short-sighted to me. All that really does is open the floodgates for more people shouting, "Welling/Routh for Superman!", which we know they won't do.
And besides, we were all here four years ago when they tried JLA. That didn't work, so I doubt it will this time.
