Shazam!!!

[Anubis]

Oh hell no. He can be still be used quite well. Especially if you choose to use his most recent interpretation.

 

[wellsy]

Oh, I can so imagine him going up to the bartender.

"Vodka martini, shaken, not stirred. And a glass of milk on the side, if you'd be so kind."

 

[protocida]

I'd like to see Mr. Twanky as a normal tiger, having only the hability to talk. He could be Shazam's "pet" and the guardian of the Rock of Eternity.

 

[Anubis]

Or both. An old man who kinda looks after Billy while he's on the street, and a talking Tiger.

Or have the Wizard be the old man who kinda looks out for Billy and he just so happens to have a stray cat or something, that is also the talking tiger that he keeps as a companion in the Rock of Eternity.

 

[SuperMonkey]

Oh, I can so imagine him going up to the bartender.

"Vodka martini, shaken, not stirred. And a glass of milk on the side, if you'd be so kind."

that or Catwoman's line ("White Russian. Hold the vodka, hold the kalhua") Which, for those amongst us who don't have a PHD in bartending, is cream.









Also, that pic looks pretty bad-ass.

Cool.

I'm looking foward to Captain Marvel/Black Adam clash. For me, it must be "Matrix Revolutions"/"Clash (JLU episode)" proportions!

 

[SuperMonkey]

I'm also questioning the Rock's acting ability. Not sure who said it (look back a page or two) but he really is a one-character character actor.

So.... what? Merge the characters of Uncle Marvel/Dudley and Mr Tawky Tawny?

[Webhead2006]

well to be honest who knows if the rock will still want to be black adam if/when the film actually gets off thr ground.

 

[protocida]

It will.

 

[Anubis]

So.... what? Merge the characters of Uncle Marvel/Dudley and Mr Tawky Tawny?

-- FunBob

I meant the Tawky Tawny from the Monster Society mini from last year.

 

[Webhead2006]

well yea its likely to happen but with the track record wb/dc has with their comics films it doesnt look good for shazam happening any time soon. Like ww/flash shazam is still not moving fast enough. Right now Gl looks to be the only one to be the one to happen next.

 

[The Guard]

I hope Mentor is in this movie.

 

[protocida]

I hope Mentor is in this movie.

 

[Brian Braddock]

I don't think a straight word-for-word adaptation would work either, that's not what I meant. Also, Tawky Tawny should be excluded IMO.

Sorry 'Bis;

A talking tiger on screen? Evertime he get's a scene, all I'll be able to think about is:-

I'm inclined to agree with Super Monkey on the Tawky Tawny thing.

 

[Anubis]

You know, for most people Tony the Tiger showing up in a superhero movie would be the awesome. Do you hate America or something?

 

[Brian Braddock]

I'm intrigued/in awe at your thought process there, Anubis.

I'd love to see it laid down in flow-chart form.

 

[Anubis]

If I were the photoshopping type, i'd produce one for you, but i'm not, so instead, i'll just leave you with this:

 

[cerealkiller182]

I think there have plenty of talking animal sidekicks that if there was a martini drinking talking tiger, people's first idea would not be frosted flakes

All that McConaughey hate has scrambled your brain, 'Bis.

[Billy Batson]

Tawky Tawny and Tony both could be included.
I would have Tony as the Frosted Flakes pitchman.
Billy loves Frosted Flakes and he uses Tony as the template for his imaginary friend: Tawky Tawny whom basically is Billy's Mentor,Father figure and conscience.

 

[Brian Braddock]

Who presumably aids him in his battle against his arch foes, Black Adam and Golden Graham.

 

[OwlBoy]

Watching Merlin(one of my favorite TV movies ever) - I'm thinking Sam Neil should put back on a wizard's robe and be Shazam

 

[Hypestyle]
