Exclusive: Script for The Flash and GL2 Treatment in Progress

Quote"'GL' is always a bit lighter than that on earth but mixed with a twinge of the space opera, which has its own epic qualities to it. 'Flash' as we're getting into it is interesting, too. Though Barry Allen was a little lighter in the comic, I think because of the nature that he was a CSI and moved in this world of crime before this stuff happened. I think it's tonally somewhere in between 'GL' and 'Dark Knight.' It's actually a little bit darker than when we were working on ('GL'), because you're dealing with somebody who is already a crimefighter in a world of those kinds of criminals and that kind of murder and homicide. I find you talk a lot about different films when you're working on a film, and we spend a lot more time talking about 'Se7en' or 'The Silence of the Lambs' as we construct that part of Barry's world, then I thought when we got into it. It helps balance a guy in a red suit who runs really fast."

Mixed feelings on the flash... I love the JLA cartoon Flash (silly) but I would also love to see the cop/forensics side explored.

I am excited to see more of the CSI aspect of Barry's life added to his superhero life on the screen.  I really wish that maybe Wally would get his due on screen and perhaps he will, but I really want the legacy of the Flash name explored in the film script as well to really round it out and carry the film home.

Flash totally needs at least one other Flash, probably Jay Garrick. The whole generational thing is really what makes it cool. Also time travel. Also Flash is just the coolest no matter what.
I apologize in advance for everything I say on here. I regret it immediately after clicking post.
