There are plenty of straight to DVD disco-dance movies. I don't need Marvel to make one of their own, especially something that I'm not gonna watch.
Now Moon Knight - that's something cool.
yeah, he is cool, he's like batman, except dressed for in artic fatigues. i would like to see him in a flick too.
but what i don't want is every single superhero movie to follow the same template of violent male vigilante.
you say disney has many direct to dvd disco movies? dude, they are swamped and dwarfed by the amount of vigilante, man on a mission, movies that go direct to dvd.
does that mean somene should not come along and have the vision to make TDK because there are already so many crappy movies that follow that template?
who is asking for a crappy disco movie anyway? i'm asking for a 2001 infinity gate done in 3d to accompany pounding catchy tunes during a Dazzler movie, with a great story behind it of a person who has the chance to become a celebrity, but becomes a superhero instead.
now that would be a good message, screw all this celebrity , reality tv, wanna be crap, do something more positive with your life instead.
have Dazzler be an artist who will not sell out, someone who sticks to her principles, and becomes a superhero instead of selling out to a horrible radio friendly corporation. there are a lot of possibilities for that kind of movie.
it would be different from the usual formula, and, in the right hands, it could be very cool.
i'm telling you man, if i was a film director, that is thesuperhero adaptation i would want to try my hand at, something that has not been done before.
and i would use my resulting clout to get a howard the duck re-boot done next, lol. then do a crossover between the two, leaving in hints for when they would all come together in a power pack movie.
but, in all seriousness, the sh genre is in need of a good female sh movie they have all been terrible so far. dazzler could be a good vehicle for that.
i would give it to the wachowskis, a combo of 'bound', with tough, strong take charge females, and 'speed racer' , with the trippy visuals.
