If you could make the next Hero movie, what would it be ?

[SlipperyLilSuckers]

Good thread topic! I like the idea of a Black Panther movie.

I would do a Commander X one, with Cap'n Eli.

I think a Pixar-esque miniseries of the Marvel Family vs the Monster Society of Evil (minus some of the less palatable characters like Nippo from Nagasaki) would be interesting. Naturally, Hoppy the Marvel Bunny would play an important role, even if I were the only one who ever watched it

Bionic Six.

I'd do a live action film, using dialogue to briefly recount their origin, or maybe a prologue like Lord Of The Rings.

The story would revolve around Dr Scarab trying to hold the world hostage with some superweapon in order to set himself up as absolute ruler. Basically the plot of any lame film like this would be. The uniforms would not be made of black leather, but actually cartoon accurate. There would be the right amount of cheese and action to make it fun and yet entertaining. Maybe get Bruce Campbell to play Bionic-1 and Cameron Diaz to play Mother-1. Other roles to be determined. As accurate to the cartoon as possible. Lots of special effects. Not overly green-screened, not too cheap on effects. CG utilized but not overused. Focus on characters, dialogue and action, not explosions and cg.

I am completely serious. I'll also be the only one in the theater watching it. But it'd be a blast!



Or maybe I'd do a live action Sectaurs film. They're kinda like superheroes. Okay not really, but what a cool movie that'd be if I made it.

Green Lantern Hal Jordan set smack dab in the late 50's like his first appearance. See New Frontier for the style.

My dream is to Make a TV series with annual Theater movies staring the.....
TEEN TITANS

Start from the very beginning in the Tv show ( NO Smallville type CRAP)
where the 5 originals come to gether to stop their mind controled seniors. and then show them make the team and come together for cases. add in all the other young heroes of the day, Bette/batgirl, Tula, hawk, dove, mal, lillith.
while showing them develop. do cameos of where Starfire ,Cyborg and raven are and growing up and what trials they are facing. each summer release a big movie. and the tird year have the new titans join the team on the show and that summer movie is the fight against trigon. let the shows and movies run for 10n years so they can grow up into nightwing, troia, Arsenal, Flash and tempest.

If not that. than an accurate telling of an Modesty Blaise newspaper strip story brought to life. OH YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've sort of tinkered working on a treatment for a Black Panther movie for several years. It would be a mixture of jungle action and urban streets of New York stuff. The normal hollywood minds would cast a rap artist in the title role, but I've always thought he should have some age and seasoning. My original and first choice for the part was Mario Van Peebles. Now I'm not sure. I'd have Klaw in there and a hired assasin to take on T'Challa...Kraven the Hunter played by Ben Stiller. He's got that psycho quality to his eyes and expressions.

Okay, this is a stretch, but I don't want to wait another seven years till Snipes is out of jail for anyone to take this character seriously.

A J'hon J'onz, Martian Manhunter movie done old school detective noir. Lots of sepia tones and shadows while he's being the detective and then lots of vibrant color when he is his true self. And have it be a true suspenseful who done it. Just happens that the guy on the case is from Mars.

Justice League of America - The Trilogy - Shot all at once. Released a year apart, each on July 4th.

Part 1 - Origins - Each major heroes origin stories along with a bit about their archenemies

Part 2 - Crisis - Villians galore - Wreaking havoc, beating up on the heroes, battling themselves as much as the baddies... finally forcing them to truly join forces...

Part 3 - War - Knock down, drag out, back and forth goliath of a movie. Good guys win... roll credits... post credit teaser about some crisis seemingly even too big for our collective heroes...

[johnnystorm]

I would find it hard to decide, so I'd do CAPTAIN ACTION as he was originally- and since all heroes are available, I'd have him wear all the costumes of all the heroes he could become! Each hero would have his own mini-adventure...it would be the greatest Superman/Batman/Spider-Man/Sgt. Fury/Steve Canyon/Phantom/Flash Gordon/Lone Ranger/Aquaman/Green Hornet/Captain America/Everybody Else film you ever saw!!

Plus of course, the same with Action Boy's identities and Dr. Evil as the villain.

[The Toyroom]

I'd re-do The Spirit....yeah it just came out but it tanked BIGTIME and it really deserves to be done right and pay homage to the characters of Central City and not just to push someone else's agenda. I'm still hoping this gets animated at some point down the road if not a live-action film.

[The Bat]

Me ..........

I'd make Captain America ........
My movie would be set in the early 40's during WW2.
I want tons of Nazi's and even a cameo from Hitler himself.

What about you ?

I'm with Ya Mike!! And it looks like You're going to get your wish...because that IS the plan for the Cap Movie!!

[The Bat]

Well....for Me of course, it would be Batman. And since You said it was to please only Myself...I would ditch the Rubber/Armored Suit, in favor of the good old Spandex(with Trunks)Year one Batman Suit. Although I see the Logic behind the Movie version...the Fan Boy in Me wants the SPANDEX!!!

The Cast of Nolan's Batman however...wouldn't change a bit!!

[BlackKnight]

Secret Six the Movie .
The Green Lantern Trilogy
Or a Bale/Roth Superman/Batman Worlds Finest Movie.

[Captain]

I would do a Batman/Robin movie set in the 1940's and following the look of the comic from that era to a "T". Overall, using the same old school movie serial design sense and look used for the Sky Captain movie.

Actually, I think Supes, Capt. Marvel, Wonder Woman, and Captain America should all be done using this style of filmmaking.

[huedell]

Ok,
You have an endless amount of cash to blow away.

You have this great idea .....
I'm going to make a Superhero movie the way I want it done.
I don't care about pleasing anyone but myself.
If it's a flop, then so be it, i'm rich anyway ..... In other words, your George Lucas

Well, if your movie movie "flopped" as bad as George's last SW trilogy,
you'd be a billionaire on that alone

Personally, I'd get some of the actors from SUPERMAN RETURNS
(and the director) and make a Supes movie featuring BIZARRO.

Spacey would return as Lex (Bizarro's maker) and Routh would play
a dual role as Bizarro (triple role if you count Clark too, I guess).

If I was lucky enough to make two superhero movies, the second I'd do
would be to make a Superman sequel to my first movie starring
Routh again and having STEVE BUSCEMI play THE JOKER in Metropolis to
battle SUPERMAN.

And, if I was STILL lucky enough to make more movies, I'd
make a BATMAN/SPIDER-MAN "DISORDERED MINDS" movie adaptation
from the comicbook....I'd have it starring BALE/MCGUIRE and BUSCEMI
(as the JOKER again) and possibly take CARNAGE out and put
VENOM or GREEN GOBLIN in....you know DeFoe would LOVE to play GOBBY again

That's three movies right there----I could definitely go on with quite
a few more before I ran out of steam on what I'd like to see!
