What DC hero would you like get it's own movie?

[C. Lee]

I want Christopher Nolan to make every DC film. It's what our superheroes deserve. Personally I want a kick- ass aqua man movie

I hate to hear things like this.....I personally like variety....different and new directors will bring new things to the table.

 

[bubbadoom]

ANY Kirby DC character - Demon, New Gods, Challengers, etc.

 

[66 Face]

One character that doesn't get overly mentioned and could be great is Hawkman. Great origin story and a movie could be a cross between Raiders of the Lost Ark and Stargate.

 

[Ultra Nolanite]

I want a Green lantern do-over. If done right this could be the space epic to end all space epics.

If we can't have that then give us a proper Wonder Woman ASAP.

 

[Nave 'Torment']

Wonder Woman film is a must at the moment, but it really needs to be done right. And I don't mean Thor-right or Captain America-right. I'm talking Chris Nolan right without Chris Nolan (because he's far from the sort of director who could make a faithful movie about Wonder Woman and classical mythology, yes you heard that from a Nolan-fan). It needs to pay enough respect for mythology, and not go along with the popcorn-interpretations we have in Hollywood at the moment.

As for Hawkman -- I admit I was a huge fan of his when I was younger. That's the kind of movie that'd benefit from a Captain America-right adaptation. Tie it into a JSA film and I'll be a happy camper around the Warner movie lot.

See, here's the thing with the GL and New God movies... they're perhaps some of the best space-operas to grace the comic-book medium (or among the better ones), but the minute you translate all of that onto film you get immediate comparisons to Star Wars. The Oans as Jedis, Darkseid as Darth Vader. Hal Jordan as Han-Solo the movie. You lose all sense of originality. I think Watchmen suffers as a movie because of it, you really can't just turn it panel for panel and make it into something as iconic as it was in the original panel, whether it preceded Star Wars in history or not, the fact remains that on film it follows that. Hell, any space-opera has to deal with that so it has that disadvantage.

Thor, again, such a brilliant movie that it managed to reconcile not one or two but three complex ideas into one cohesive and truly entertaining movie: the sci-fi bit, the mythical gods existing today, and a superhero on Earth. You need to do something like that with GL and no turning it into a Shakespearean parable ain't gonna cut.

So to make it into, as you've said, "the space epic to end all space epics" it first has to deal with the original Star Wars trilogy right at home with the geeks. I think it's possible, why wouldn't it? The sci-fi genre has evolved. But it needs to keep that into play when another GL film comes out. It's easy as hell too - you don't need a reboot, start it off with John Stewart and everyone will be happy.

In all honesty, with no jest whatsoever, I'd love it if an Aquaman movie was announced. It's always seemed like such an untapped property to me, and it goes beyond the Entourage thing. It would be awesome to see some of that John Carter of Mars sensibility applied to Aquaman's world. But no, WB will just wait until a Namor film comes along, makes a ton of dough and renders an Aquaman movie pointless.

 

[DrCosmic]

Wonder Woman Trilogy
A GL Movie starring John Stewart
Supergirl

...

That pretty much covers it for me.

That actually sounds magical. It would certainly bring a new edge to all these earth based superhero films.

All I wanted to say is....


Neil Patrick Harris for Barry Allen/The Flash!!!

[Karelia]

Lobo

I know their is talk of this film actually happening, and The Rock rumored to play him... But until it's official, this is the one movie I want DC to make. Not a really popular pick, but I can see it working, even with a PG-13 rating if they get the right people behind it.

Teen Titans is another that would be cool.

The Flash should have happened by now. I mean seriously, The Flash is probably the one DC hero most Marvel fanboys like, from the people I've met anyways.

Green Lantern sequel/reboot. More space, less earth drama.

 

[mjbull23]

Wonder Woman film is long overdue. She's such an important DC character, can't believe it hasn't happened yet.

 

[dozer2025]

The Question. It could be a cool movie or kick ass show. And it could be done on a minuscule budget.

 

[dozer2025]

How 'bout a movie based on a crappy character? I had an idea for a Black Condor movie, where instead of a dude raised by birds who takes the place of a Senator who looks like him, he IS a Senator and son of South African immigrants. He inherits the mantle, but is reluctant because of his political career and the weakness of the powers (flight, super-sight and smell? JLA here we come!), but of course he's too nice a guy not to step up when disaster strikes

 

[Lord]

New Gods and Aquaman

 

[The Batkilt]

How could Chris Nolan make a "kick-ass Aquaman movie" though? I'm not a fan of Superman so I'm in no rush to see the Nolan produced Man of Steel, but he had stated one of the things that drew him to Batman was the 'plausibility', and there is none with the rest of the JL in terms of 'this could happen in the real world'. Personally I really enjoyed Nolan's Batman movies, but I'm hoping for future writers and directors to be as successful in adapting from the source material of the comics without totally cutting out the 'superpowers' element of things.

Plus I think every character should have it's own director, so each film has a different 'feel'. Hell, I like how in both the Burton/Schumacher and Nolan series each film had a different theme and 'feel' to it.

 

[TheDarkPhoenix]

A proper film for the Flash somehow.

 

[charl_huntress]

I think I misread that as Mr. Miracle

LOL...I think I would support a movie that featured Barda, so I'm not mad at 'cha. Mr. Miracle and Darkseid and his training with Granny Goodness would also be interesting.

Mr. Terrific would be better though t:

I'm pretty sure we can thank certain films, such as Elektra and Catwoman, for not seeing WW on the big screen.

Not to be a sexist or something, but making a good superhero film about a female lead is probably pretty hard.. Especially with WW being not just a vigilante-ish like Elektra or catwoman, but having actual superpowers, I suspect it sort of autopilots towards cheezyness..

What we need is a really good scrip, and probably most important of all; good support characters. To make the main character less cheezy, we need good supporting characters around her. I think a good example of this is Thor, where his interaction with humans was done very well!

 

[American_Hobo]

I said it in another thread, but I would like to see Batman Beyond.

 

[pr0xyt0xin]

Manhunter

-The Question
-Aquaman

 

[Powerman34]

Doom Patrol (Just imagine the advertising, the t-shrts alone!)
Icon
L.A.W. (think JL Task Force on steriods) a team that does the covert stuff

 

[charl_huntress]

Manhunter

I feel like an inept DC fan, but that name does not ring any bells. I''ll have to Google him.
