Legends of Tomorrow Legends of Tomorrow General Discussion

[Airwings]

Hawkman is such a awesome character. Of course he will work in live action if done right.

Seeing how much Green Arrow changed for the better between Smalville and Arrow, I have no doubt Hawkman will go the same route.

Now we just need Oliver Queen and Carter Hall to show up in DCU.

 

[Bathead]

It's classic no doubt. It's been his look since the beginning .... Minus the regular hood he had that one point in his early years. It's just not a look that I can see translating to screen well. When smallville tried it , just didn't seem to work. To wobbly and cumbersome . I mean you can keep the wings but just streamline it a bit. I guess something more similar to Hawkgirls look pre new 52 and the thanagarian look from the JL animated series starcrossed

That's because it wasn't a well made costume to begin with, it's not because there was a problem with the basic classic design. I believe they can pull it off if they try.

He most definitely is, and if not a spin-off series of his own, atleast I hope he becomes a series regular eventually. This is such an iconic cult-favorite character who deserves more "mainstream" exposure!

.....and yeah, it'd be great to see Oliver and Carter go at each other verbally like in the comics.

I hope that they can make his "look," well look good. Hawkman's got one of those designs that doesn't translate well (at least not immediately) to live-action. I actually quite liked the Smallville take on him, but his costume still looked goofy as Hell. It's the wings I think, they're especially hard to make look good.

I think his look should reflect a sense of an "outworlder", much like Thor.

Dominion can give them some notes. They've managed to make their angels' wings look and act fairly organic on a SyFy TV budget.

There were parts of Smallville Hawkman that really worked for me. I loved the whole Indiana Jones thing Carter Hall had going. I loved the look of the helmet . I just didn't love the look of the helmet being worn. I think it needs to be streamlined a bit. Less clumsy looking. I'm sure they will come up with something that works because they do not shy away from the source material to much . Also the bare chested look shouldn't be used here. There is a happy medium I know . Maybe with Smallville it was the costume design or maybe it was the actor who just didn't fit the costume .

 

[batdude]

Well, maybe the grey Hawkworld look would work. doesn't absoulutely have to be bare chested. I have seen Hawkman live three times (Legends/Adam West special, candy commercial,Smallville) Smallville was by far the best attempt. Doesn't mean these guys can't do better.

Much better than the Smallville version. I want to see Hawkman actually use his wings when flying.

Just imagine how awesome it can be on a blockbuster budget.

 

[rogue trooper]

...this is also a way to go:

At the Grayskull: Masters of The Universe movie thread, someone suggested this guy for He-Man:

Sam Heughan(Outlander)

....well, if not He-Man, he'd be a solid fit for The Winged Wonder. He also played Batman in "Batman Live" show.

Don't forget the wings from Constantine!

Spoiler

 

[Airwings]

Or the wings in the Paul Bettany film Legion.

Funny, considering Dominion is a continuation/sequel to Legion.

Don't remind me.

[Sawyer]

Never heard of him.

 

[batdude]

Yeah, in all honesty, I was hoping for a bigger name. So we might get a spinoff for the Hawks if this show doesn't work.

[YT]TVRz3jF8HXU[/YT]

Agreed! These types of wings would look sweet! Make them look more practical and organic looking ahead of all CGI.

[Sawyer]

Certainly looks the part.

 

[Paradox1]

That I second

 

[Bathead]

Never heard of him.

I haven't heard of most of the actors y'all talk about here on a regular basis.

 

[Mike Murdock]

Definitely looks the part. On that, it's more encouraging than Ra's.

 

[Fallen Angel]

I wonder if we'll see Scandal Savage in this show?

 

[Last Of Krypton]

I wonder if we'll see Scandal Savage in this show?

That would be one hell of a team. Vandal and Scandal together.
