Let's see...so we've already had a Superman and Batman movie. Green Lantern is coming out next year, Flash and Wonder Woman are in the works. Aquaman probably isn't too far behind, considering that they already tried a TV pilot out on him. So which original JLA'er does that leave left? Should I even dream that big or just accept the inevitable disappointment now instead of later?
