    What DC character do you most want to see get a movie?

    Mine is Firestorm.

    I absolutely love the character(s) and think he's one of the most unique ever created in comics. Plus, besides Ghost Rider, what other hero has a flaming head?

    I think Tyler Posey (Teen Wolf) and Jeff Goldblum would be perfect for Ronnie Raymond / Prof. Stein

    His name is perfect for a movie title too...Firestorm: The Nuclear Man.

    I'd say a LOT of them. Hard to choose.

    I mean, I've even been transfixed on a more minor character like THE CREEPER recently, so there's always a guy like that.

    As far as "bigger" characters. The two remaining original 5 Super Friends who haven't made movie appearances would be my top choices. In fact, I'd much rather see Wonder Woman and Aquaman movies more than everyone else combined.

    Also, I've always had a thing for The Atom, however, and would've loved to have seen an Atom movie, but I think Marvel's Ant-Man movie will take a lot of wind out of that sail for me.

      ^I agree Aquaman needs a movie! I feel bad for the guy...I mean, he had his own cartoon for crying out loud, and it was awesome! He just gets no respect these days. He has to keep 2/3 of the world safe by himself.

      I think even without Black Manta, a film showcasing him performing some spectacular rescues like maybe an oil rig and a cruise ship would be really cool.

        I would have to go with Wonder Woman and Aquaman as well. A WW movie treated like Cap:First Avenger would be fantastic. And Aquaman could combine Super Heroics with Lord of the Rings. What's not to like about that?

          The Flash and Aquaman. I think both could be amazing special effects films.

            Without doubt Shazam. How could this concept not succeed? Look at Harry Potter as a model. Not too many films out there that have a child hero with super powers. Its every childhood fantasy brought to life. How satisfying would it be in this day and age to see kids wearing a bedsheet cape yelling Shazam? This is a goldmine for both WB and DC.

            If anyone here believes in psychokinesis, please raise my hand.

                Wonder Woman! But, It has to be a well written movie and a GREAT actress. Someone who can fill the boots of WW and Lynda Carter both in a dignafied way and make it done with good taste. Not just eye candy. although eye candy is good. I am a fan!

                  I think you're onto something there.

                      I love the Big Red Cheese like no other, and I think the character concept is just as great & original as when he was created.

                      But I worry that moderern audiences will only see Cap as a Superman rip-off, even though that's not really accurate.

                        they should really go for something off the wall and unexpected like the Doom Patrol or the Challs.

                          Does it have to be a hero? Why not make a villian movie, showing how he came to be and the crimes and destruction he causes leading up to a part 2 where the hero comes in to begin the battle. I mean you have your choice of villians that have yet to make an appearance in a movie, ManBat ,Bizzaro, Mxy,Mettalo, Black Adam.The options are almost endless. Why not let the bad guy win one for once?

                            That is a VERY interesting concept...I think if any villain's origin could fill an entire movie, it's Doctor Doom.

                              I didn't think there would be as much love for Aquaman, but he's the one I'd like to see most, but I'd go see any or all that were mentioned.

                              I'd like to see the dark Justice film with Swamp Thing, Costantine and Deadman, among others come to fruition. But so many projects hGuillermo del Toro's associated with never get made.
