Yeah, even though I didn’t LOVE Holmes this Lobo Idea was skimpy at best..just like other DC properties that have no business having a movie now. like:Plasticman,Martian,Nightwing and Green Lantern.(sorry did I write that last one?)

WHERE the hell is the Flash,Auqaman,and Wonderwoman already?
JEEEESH! DC comics’ next project is LOBO WTF!

As pointed out by Rodney, Lobo is a one note character whose appeal lies mostly in dark satire and is in essence a jab at X-Man Wolverine.

It should be said that the Lobo project isn’t “dead”. Silver implies that other directors will be considered. But I would rather see other DC characters before Lobo (like Sgt. Rock or Wonder Woman, Joel…?) and —given the same choice, I would also choose Sherlock Holmes 2 over Lobo.

I thought Ritchie was perfect for Lobo. Shame if he plays it safe and goes with Sherlock 2.

I would rather see LOBO instead of a Sherlock 2.

And if they would use the same personality that they gave Lobo in “Superman – the animated series”, man oh man, THAT would be great.

Back when they first announced that Guy Richie was going to do this Sherlock Holmes movie I remember hearing that someone else was also going to make a Sherlock Holmes movie. Does anyone also remember that? Does anyone know what happened to that?

Well, I’m a BIG FAN of Lobo and WAS a big Guy Richie fan before seeing Sherlock which was, to me, his worst movie so far!

Given that Sherlock Holmes has made more than 4 times the amount of all of Guy Richie movies combined, I think its a good idea for him to put a sequel above any other project.
