What Superhero for Movieland?

[vagueship]

While this is a Hollywood trend, who do you think should have a movie about them?<br /><br />Green Lantern spikes my interest. (Never could figure out how his ring would work in <i>yellow</i> sunlight though.<br /><br />If you could get a good Thor actor, his life and battles might be interesting.<br /><br />Maybe a Legionaires movie?

Rambo Kitty would be a good one too if VFN will release him from the contract.<br /><br /><br /> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><font color="#ff0000"><strong>TPTB went to Dallas and all I got was Plucked !!</strong></font></p><p><font color="#339966"><strong>So many people, so few recipes !!</strong></font></p><p><font color="#0000ff"><strong>Let's clean up this stinkhole !!</strong></font> </p> </div>

I'm on an obscure nostalgia roll from my last post. How about Cool McCool?<br /> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> </div>

The Flash is my favorite superhero, so I vote for him. <img src="/images/icons/wink.gif" />

I would want a Gambit movie. I agree with Green Latern. Sandman could be interesting.<br /><br />I think another post mentioned that Iron Man is in the works (YAY!)<br /><br />Spawn done well would be nice.<br /><br />Finally I would love to see Danger Girl!<br /><br />

And what Superhero would be caught dead without a Supervillian to battle?<br /><br /> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><font color="#ff0000"><strong>TPTB went to Dallas and all I got was Plucked !!</strong></font></p><p><font color="#339966"><strong>So many people, so few recipes !!</strong></font></p><p><font color="#0000ff"><strong>Let's clean up this stinkhole !!</strong></font> </p> </div>

Dr. Strange was done in 1978. It wasn't too good. <br /><br />He does provide an opportunity for some great special effects and you also have the romance issue with Clea.<br /><br />Wonder how the dread Dormamu would look.

That was made for TV, was it not?<br /><br />Wayne <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p>"1) Give no quarter; 2) Take no prisoners; 3) Sink everything."  Admiral Jackie Fisher</p> </div>

Spiderman was a short lived TV series about the same time - it too suffered from the limitations of stunts/special effects of the time.<br /><br />Wayne <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p>"1) Give no quarter; 2) Take no prisoners; 3) Sink everything."  Admiral Jackie Fisher</p> </div>

Captain America also had a short lived TV series in that time frame. I hated that they made his shield transparent - a plastic like material...<br /><br />I like Reb Brown, but not in this...<br /><br />Wayne<br /><br /> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p>"1) Give no quarter; 2) Take no prisoners; 3) Sink everything."  Admiral Jackie Fisher</p> </div>

Ran across this reference in Wikipedia:<br /><br />In 2005 Variety reported on the formation of Marvel Entertainment, a business entity dedicated to producing film adaptations of Marvel Comics properties. Marvel Entertainment released a list of Marvel properties being developed for production by the company to be released through a partnership with Paramount Pictures. The list includes Captain America. Other properties specifically named in the press announcement are the Avengers, Nick Fury, Black Panther, Ant-Man, Cloak and Dagger, Dr. Strange, Hawkeye, Power Pack, and Shang-Chi. Budgets for each film are expected to be between $45 million and $180 million. The first picture under the arrangement is slated for release by 2008.<br /><br />Here is the ref:<br /><br />http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Captain_America#Movies <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p>"1) Give no quarter; 2) Take no prisoners; 3) Sink everything."  Admiral Jackie Fisher</p> </div>
