...I had an idea for a New Avengers type movie, that could both accomplish the need of having new Avengers without necessarily all having to confine it to one film franchise.
My basic idea was to have the villain be the Purple Man. Basically I'd have him be a TV Producer doing a reality TV show in Harlem. The reality TV show features two "super heroes" named Wonder Man (played by Simon Williams) and Speed Demon. Luke Cage and Iron Fist come into conflict with them after they discover Zed Killgrave secretly uses his powers to "convince" locals in Harlem to committ crimes so the superheroes will have things to do on TV. Luke Cage and Iron Fist go to Matt Murdock to see if he'll help them legally remove the two heroes on TV from Harlem. Matt says it's legally impossible so they go to SHIELD. SHIELD turns them away cold, saying the threat isn't "big enough". One of their agents present, Jessica Drew, takes pity on them and joins them revealing she masquarades as Spider-Woman.
Basically the heart of my idea though is that you'd have a franchise of Avengers who took care of "street level" crime.
I'd also like to see a film like this treat superheroes matter of factly. As if we don't need the originitis anymore. They just exist in the MU. I'd construct a story that glazed over their origins, much like Avengers, but do it without the set up films. I think as long as you explain the powers, this can be done.
But overall I support the idea of a NA film.
