Robinson addressed a number of issues, including the film's sets and alterations his script made to the original graphic novel miniseries by Alan Moore and Kevin O'Neill.
That said, Robinson admits that the American sequences were "things the studio wanted" and that the film won't feature any scenes set in the U.S. Robinson also revealed that the film's budget is just "north of $80 million" and that he's enjoyed "a good collaboration" with League director Stephen Norrington.
Robinson reveals that The League contains "action scenes that are pretty crazy, but I think [Norrington] is trying to marry modern filmmaking with a classic approach, like Raiders of the Lost Ark, or even David Lean's films.

 dallasobserver.com - News - Minor League   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
As for Mina Harker, known in the comic as Mina Murray, she was but a divorced woman hiding a past beneath a crimson scarf; her sin was little more than that of the independent woman, and in the comic, it is she, not Quatermain, who leads the League.
Here, she’s a bit player—or bite player, as it were, as Robinson and Norrington render her a femme Dracula, not just the former bride of a vampire’s playmate.
Robinson and Norrington, whose roots lie deep in rich comic-book soil—the former resurrected DC’s moribund Hawkman, the latter directed the first Blade—know their changes will gall the fetishists; they are their audience, self-proclaimed purists.

 Reeling: the Movie Review Show's review of The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen
Instead of even attempting to stay true to the original, the makers decided to revamp, entirely, the story, keeping the intro'd characters, adding a few more, and plugging it all into a stock world-crisis-and-the-assemblage-of-experts-brought-together-to-save-said-world a la "Armageddon" and "The Core." There is nothing, except the characters and cuteness to recommend this insult to its source.
The rest of the production, including the several action sequences, are very well made and expensive looking but the action itself consists of bunches of bullets and lots of chop-sockey fights and little more.
The look of "The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen" is far lusher than the by-the-numbers script by James Dale Robinson deserves.

 Fort Worth Weekly Online -- fwweekly.com | Film | Finding Nemo...
Written by James Dale Robinson, based on Alan Moore and Kevin O'Neill's comic books.
Turning to this week's other big Hollywood action-adventure film: The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen is smarter, more layered, and more high-minded than Pirates of the Caribbean.
It begins with Allan Quatermain (Sean Connery) being coaxed out of retirement in Africa by M (Richard Roxburgh, much more understated than he was in Moulin Rouge), an official in Her Majesty's government, who's presumably a predecessor to James Bond's boss.

 Creative Loafing Atlanta
James Dale Robinson's script drafts two additional characters for the film version: a hunky, grown-up Tom Sawyer (Shane West), to appeal to Americans, and an indestructible Dorian Gray (Stuart Townsend), to appeal to -- I dunno, decadent dandies, perhaps.
West and Townsend fare worst with Robinson's weak faux-witty dialogue, but the rest of the cast comfortably take to the film's melodramatic spirit.
Wilson gets to imitate Connery's sibilant burr, the unseen Curran shows some cockney irreverence and Flemyng talks to himself in mirrors as both the tormented Jekyll and the savage Hyde.

That was tame stuff compared to the sort of mayhem mercilessly unleashed in this film directed by Stephen Norrington from a screenplay by James Dale Robinson based on comic books by Alan Moore and Kevin O'Neill.
The plot involves yet another scheme to take over the world, this time in 1899 by a gang producing weaponry of as yet unheard of power--like a tank that can crash through walls.

 IGN: Comic Book Villains Review
What writer/director James Dale Robinson conveys towards the beginning of his film Comic Book Villains is a love for comics and the way of life for those devoted to them.
He ought to know – Robinson has written for various titles including Starman, Cable, WildC.A.T.s, and Batman: Legends of The Dark Knight; work which garnered him more than one Will Eisner Comic Industry Award.
Here's a bit of irony: being in a comic book shop is one of those times where I don't feel like I'm in a hurry to be somewhere else.

 Weekend: In a (sorry) league of its own
Of all the plagiarism Norrington and screenwriter James Dale Robinson attempted, the Hyde special effects are the most impressive.
The rest of the film is a humorless mess, always taking itself more seriously than it deserves (unlike something like Charlie's Angels 2 that gains more success as it embraces its badness).

The filmed adaptation of LXG, adds two new players to the team facing down a scurrilous villain who threatens the world with evil machinations as dastardly as they are visually spectacular!

 At the Movies by David Robinson ­ The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen
It would be nice to report that The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen is an extraordinarily good movie, or even just an ordinarily good one.
Instead, director Stephen Norrington and screenwriter James Dale Robinson opt for a campy redo of any number of familiar adventure stories.
And the League of the title is replete with equally familiar names, though what they're all doing together remains murky.
