Crisis On Infinite Franchises

Ah, more Justice League news.  Zack Snyder recently confirmed that his Superman franchise would have nothing to do with the Justice League, and that it would be "cool" to have two Superman.  You know what else is cool Zack?  Movies making sense, but I think you forgot that during Sucker Punch.  Let's imagine something.  Say Superman become a new trilogy, and the Justice League movie does happen in 2013 and is a trilogy as well.  That means we have alternating years of Superman, where each summer Henry Cavill trades places with someone else.  I'm actually in support of this, because it's just too screwy not to let happen.

Superman is his own worst enemy?  This shit just got meta!

This begs the question: what about Green Lantern?  Would Ryan Reynolds be included?  That franchise was originally meant to tie in with a larger universe, but it would actually make more sense if they severed off ties from other movies completely.  Crossovers are really all or nothing events.  But for the Flash and Green Lantern, they would actually be better of going with the non-silver age heroes.  Use Jon Stewart instead of Hal Jordan and Wally West instead of Barry Allen.  At least that makes SOME sense rather than throwing and sense of continuity out the window faster than a speeding bullet.

Actually?  To hell with it.  Let's just run with this.  We're bringing in the Multiverse now.  How about a Crisis on Infinite Earths movie?  We could have Henry Cavill, the JLA Superman, and Tom Welling from Smallville battle it out on screen.  Christian Bale, Val Kilmer, George Clooney, Michael Keaton and a JLA Batman can team up to take down Adam West.  And how bout the old Flash from the live action TV show?  Can we bring him in?  Why not.
