Thing is they've kind of already adapted everything worthwhile name-wise. I'm a little bored of just seeing slightly different versions of Batman reenact a great story. I find it hard to care if they were going to try and adapt Long Halloween. It almost feels like they should just do one more, "Whatever happened to the man of Tomorrow" and treat that like an epitaph for these animated movies.

I'm fine if they want to do something original like the Wonder Woman movie or maybe adapt that Supermax idea for Green Arrow, but they'll never do anything without Batman or Superman now.

Bruce Timm and Zack Snyder are collaborating on a Superman animated short celebrating the 75th anniversary.

Conceived as being one continous shot, the short is said to "pay homage" to all the versions of Superman over the years including "Max Fleischer's cartoons, on-screen portrayals by George Reeves and Christopher Reeve, iconic versions drawn by artists Wayne Boring, Curt Swan and Neal Adams, on up through Henry Cavills interpretation in Man of Steel."

Warner Bros. Home Entertainment has released a new clip and several new stills from their upcoming Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox, available on Blu-ray Combo Pack, DVD and Digital Download on July 30th. What's more, they've announced that the feature-length animated film will have its world premiere at Comic-Con International San Diego on Friday, July 19 from 7:30-9:30pm in Ballroom 20.

In the film, the world is turned upside down as one of earth’s greatest super heroes – Flash – wakes up devoid of his super powers. When time travel allows a past wrong to be righted for Flash and his family, the event’s temporal ripples prove disastrous, creating a fractured, alternate reality where the Justice League never formed, and even Superman is nowhere to be found. Amidst a new world being ravaged by a fierce war between Wonder Woman’s Amazons and Aquaman’s Atlanteans, Flash must team with a grittier, more violent Batman and government agent Cyborg to restore the continuity of Flash’s original timeline.

Primetime television stars Justin Chambers ("Grey's Anatomy") and Kevin McKidd ("Grey's Anatomy"), the voices of Barry Allen/Flash and Thomas Wayne/Batman, respectively, unite with numerous greats of television and film to fashion the famed animated roles. Adding to the celebrity-laden voice cast and providing thrilling additions to the Justice League series are Michael B. Jordan as Cyborg, C. Thomas Howell as Thawne/Professor Zoom, Nathan Fillion as Hal Jordan/Green Lantern, Ron Perlman as Slade and Deathstroke, Dana Delany as Lois Lane, Cary Elwes as Aquaman, Danny Huston as General Lane, Sam Daly as Superman, and Kevin Conroy as Batman.
