superhero films

[Etherspin]

your faves ? what are you looking forward to and which should be made but have been overlooked ,
I kinda liked both spiderman movies tho something wasnt quite right with matching the feel for me but they were cool....

im lookin forward to batman begins and the new superman tho thats one they can potentially screw up big time ...

i was horrified at the rumour that jack black would star in a comedy green lantern movie which ive been reassured is fake.. id love 2 see a movie adaptation as green lantern hasnt been done in the past theres no shadow for it 2 be in and using current special effects they can do some cool stuff with the ring ....

which lantern tho?

[spidey]

Those oare going to be good movies, but I'm holding out for Fantastic Four and Ghost Rider!!!

[Etherspin]

yeah it will be interesting to see where they go with ghost rider..

fantastic four i would like 2 be really good but we shall see !!!
fingers crossed.. dont know bout jessica alba being in it tho

Who's Jesica Alba going to play? If it's Sue Storm it must cover the story at their very beginnings. :confused:

Though I'd watch Jessica Alba play Moms Mabley! :naughty:

NOOOOOO NOPT DENZEL! I WOULD RATHER SEE BOKEEM WOODBINE PLAYING CAPTAIN AMERICA!!!!

morris chestnutt maybe, gimme a few hours to do some brainstorming but NOT DENZEL!

[Etherspin]

brainstorm away , as long as u exclude Will Smith ..
i dont see that dude in the role cause of the jon stewart vibe..
denzel just popped in cause of stewarts feel of maturity

[Etherspin]

i was having a blank when u mentioned Morris then it just clicked... good pick man.

[The_Kay_Dee]

I know. Denzel would be good as maybe Cyborg......
Morris chestnutt has the look and the feel, plus he can do action.
(And he make the ladies SWOON!)
I really can't think of anyone else for the role. HELL NO NO WILL SMITH!!!!!!
I WOULD RATHER SEE JA RULE PLAY THE JUGGERNAUT AND RAY BENZINO AS MEPHISTO.
Dr. Strange the movie? Pierce brosnan anyone?
You know, I wondered this aloud before.....
What if, Mel Gibson had been signed on to play Wolverine?
He's already got the hair!!!

[Etherspin]

yeah definately use jon stewart even if he has to take over for hal or something in the second.. theres alan, hal and guy preceding jon in the mythos

[The_Kay_Dee]

What about the entitre corps.?
How wild would it be to see mzzxrtreowp? (Is that how you spell it?)
and the others. the story itself would require several sequels or just three VERY VERY well written and directed films. (Just the EARTH guardians.)
Hal Jordan was cool, but I only started reading Lantern when I saw that they ACTUALLY chose a black man as a hero. I have collected some cool ones.
Have you ever seen the "Superman vs. Muhammad Ali" Issue?
Ali whoops Supes *ss for a while but.... If your name is on the title YOU gotta WIN!

[Etherspin]

thats a brilliant idea man.........
:rock:

I am a newly converted fan... im trying to find used comics round where i live with no luck as yet.. some used bookstores had stacks of worn comics at about 20cents each but now i can only find where they are repackaged and sold at full price.. ill keep looking im curious as to how hal jordan found out about alan scott and how they tied it all in..

as for the lantern corps idea.. they could really build on the differences in the capabilities and mindset of the ring bearers affecting the output of the ring and their abilities i.e. i know stewart is the most skilled at flying and agility.

so would u start the first movie with hal??? its a cool idea gradually introduce the others or have stewart and the others brought in when hal is incapacitated some how in the second movie??

:rock: I loved Hellboy, though it helps that I have a thing for Ron Perlman. I don't know if Blade counts, but it's based off a Darkhorse comic.

If they could get back to the original storylines and feel, I'd love to see films made of the original Milestone Comics lineup. The only survivor of the imprint is the poorly-reviewed "Static Shock" show. :sad:

havent seen hellboy yet, want to.. dont wanna see punisher.. isnt blade based on a marvel character?? :confused:

[Foxy11]

Well I never really read the comics so I feel like my appreciation is more on a superficial level but the ones I've liked have been

The Superman movies (not the 4th one that much)
Flash Gorden (does that count?? I know I loved it when I was a kid)
both Blade movies
both Spiderman movies
the second XMEN movie
Hellboy
The first two Batman movies (1 more the 2)

The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen (although this was not based off comic book heroes, it was a nice collection of literary heros put into a superhero context)


The ones that let me down
The first XMen
Daredevil
The Hulk :banghead:

Whups. You are indeed correct. For some reason, I had him remembered as a Dark Horse character ... probably because Marvel hadn't plastered their logo all over the original credits as they did with Spiderman.

Well, it was based off comic book versions of literary heroes, as written by Alan Moore. At least the first volume of The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen has been published into graphic novel form and can be found at most comic book stores. It even has Victorian-style narration and ads!

It's also far, far better than the movie. Nemo's ship rocked, but the rest ... :toetap:

[Chukwuka]

You guys are gonna have to excuse me but I must be the biggest Spawn fan here!! I must say the first spawn movie sucked Az!! The HBO Cartoon was the F-ing Bomb diggity!! I agree with the Morris Chestnut and Green Lantern League theory :rock: :rock: :rock:
I think you should kik or punch or whatever they call it to somebody, KD!! Now, other than Spawn, I am insulted by the Mel Gibson suggestion...!! No way, we shouldn't corrupt Wolverines image no more than it already has been with ole boy from X-Men... They should've picked someone more stocky... Logan is way more ripped andcut than that guy... shit!! :madrant:

Spin,
Hal is too complex. Would you do Parallax or spectre?
When hal goes nuts and KILLS most of the Lanterns and guardians and we meet Kyle. Or start with Jon? Me I like the parallax series, spectre seems like a way to keep a character alive long enough to redeem him, and I WANT JON!
So I would do a REVERSE series. Start with Jon then go back in the second or third film to Abin Sur meeting Hal and tie it all in with some Parallax action scene or two then into some smash bang action adding help from a few of the well known lanterns with a lil love and tenderness for the ladies that went because thier man is a comic freak.

(Morris chestnutt in a torn shirt, with sweat and stuff would grab the ladies attention and hold it long enough for us to get away with making a REAL comic movie with action and a MORAL while bringing about some gettin' busy after the movie.) Hal Jordan (http://www.hyperborea.org/flash/hal.html)
Kyle Rayner (http://www.hyperborea.org/flash/kyle.html)

[Etherspin]

your idea is very good and the chronology.. i wasnt thinking of necessarily even having kyle mentioned at this stage.. thus no parralax or spectre unless they got to like a green lantern 4 !!! hal would be main guy in GL1 , stewart in number 2 when hal is out of commision and by the time 3 or 4 arrives hal is insane and kyle does in fact have to kill him and at the end of the movie is visited by spectre!

theres massive holes in what ive read of the past green lantern stuff.. what was happening with stewart during the parallax time and when kyle fought hal?

Thanx Byrdie...like I said when it comes to comics :stupid:

[Tybris]

I'm going to have to toss my hat into the ring. First off Chris is the ONE and ONLY Superman as far as I'm concerned. Distant second is Tom Welling as young Clark Kent in Smallville. In an even far distant third is Dean Cane. Any attempt to create another Superman movie will be about as big a blockbuster as Catwoman. With that said, Batman 1&2 are the only two that I will acknowledge that even exists, but I am looking forward to Year 1. Spiderman is pretty cool as far as superhero movies go. Cuz when you think about it, no otherone stacks up to these three (Superman,Batman,Spiderman). The Hulk was pretty lame. Daredevil, well it had Ben Affleck in it, it was doomed from day 1. Catwoman? um, she's not even a hero and I don't know where they got the idea that she has powers and the only draw to the movie is Holly in a badly made cat suit. Hellboy, well I don't know much about, it was entertaining at best. X-men, well it was entertaining and Hugh Jackman did ok as Wolverine, hats off to Patrick Stewart and Mcellar(sp) though. Fantastic Four, oh god when will they learn. Ok I like Jessica Alba as much as the next guy, but um..Sue Richards? Who's kidding who? The guy who plays Johnny storm looks older than she does and Sue's supposed to be the 'older' sister. The guy playing Dr. Richards, don't know the man from Adam but he just doesn't fit the role. The guy playing Ben however looks like he'd be good. Oh and um..Sue Richards is a blonde. Bad casting has killed many a movie, especially super hero movies but even more so is bad scripts and I can already see FF going down hard.

spot on bout fantastic four.. baaaad casting choices in my opinion...
about superman tho.... i have hopes... Brandon Routh looks like he could be whipped into shape and make for a good supes,hulk and daredevil were pretty much trainwrecks although some elements of em worked i thought..
Bale seems to be the best actor for batman out of any of em so far and by a mile..

speaking of green lantern previously.. taye diggs has also been suggested for the role tho i see stewart with a different face structure in the comics.. cant explain, longer face or something, more sensible/wise lookin.. dunno

as for other black superheroes, i found this ..

black superhero listing (http://www.blacksuperhero.com/exhibits.html)

i like the idea of bloodwynd as well.. i could see a cool movie with a dark occult feel to it and also exploring his roots, and i dont mean when martian manhunter impersonated him , i mean the original bloodwynd.. see the listing link above....

Oh Damn, that's freakin funny. I honestly can't think of anyone to play the part of John Stewart as Green Lanter, but I guess you have to think about it in two different parts. Is it John with hair and no gotee or is it the bald John with the gotee? That I think would change who may and may not fit the role, but my guess is its ealier with hair and no gotee, in which case I'll have to say:

Denzel=BAD choice/good actor

Wesley=Decent but he's too thin and doesn't have that wisdom/sensible look Ether mentioned.

Cuba=DEAR GOD NO!

ANY Wayan's brother=JUST BURN THE SCRIPT NOW!

LL Cool J=Hmm, he's got the build but does he have the acting chops for a super hero role?, besides he's almost to much of a pretty boy.

I honestly can't think of anyone to play the part, it might be time to go after a few no name actors to pull this off. I mean Tom Welling isn't what I'd call a well known actor but I'll be damned if he wasn't a superb pick to play Clark. He looks like what you'd think even Chris Reeve looked like when he was younger, and to top it off he and Michael Rosenbaum (Flash from Justice League on Cartoon Network) are surprisingly good actors and fit the roles to a tee. So going to the reservers and getting away from the so called 'A' list might be the Green Lanterns only hope if they plan to do John. Hal on the other hand I think could be up for grabs, however if they even consider Ben, Leo, or Orlando, consider the movie trashed. Don't get me wrong I think of the three Orlando is a far better actor, but too much of a pretty boy to be Hal. Oh, Orlando Bloom for those not sure of who I ment. I'm a harsh movie critic when it comes to this stuff. I'd love to see a Batman Beyond movie, but I think to pull it off with big blockbuster results, you're going to have to get Michael Keaton to return as Bruce wayne, albeit an older one. Sorry Mike I know you want to shake the Batman gig but, just face it..you can't, you're IT. At least this way he can do the handing off of the torch thing, but then if Batman Year 1 does really well, maybe they'll use that guy instead.

I know that John is a black, but Vin Diesel would be good.

I'll agree with that. I was talking more about physique. That's the build I would imagine GL to have.

[Chief]

so your fantasizing about the male build now Harm....might want to call your therapist..:) (unless you feel that its natural, which not that there is anythiing wrong with that)


zing..................sorry..had to be done

[Hero1]

harm is the new syxx!

[Harmeister]

uh. No.

I am firmly in the enjoying women category. anything else,

I only said that because I watched Pitch Black the other day on sci-fi and kind of thought he fit the bill, so to speak. Riddick (minus the evil part) reminds me of green lantern.

oh, and chief.... :tinker: :crossjerk: nao valeu a pena, viu?

yeah let him grow some hair,die it red and he can be guy gardner.. theres my blockbuster :happysad:

Stop the madness! MORRIS CHESTNUTT IS JON STEWART. NO TAYE DIGGS! TAYE CAN PLAY "BLACK PANTHER" HE FITS THE "HOUSE" ROLE.
HELL NO ON FUCKIN VIN DIESEL!!!! MAYBE AS THE "JUGGERNAUT"
OR A CRAPPED BACKGROUND MR. WONDER BUT THERE NEVER NEEDS TO BE ANOTHER VIN DIESEL SUPERHERO UNTIL HE READS THEENTIRE SERIES OF WHO IS WHO AND WHY NOT HAVING CHARACTERS MADE FOR HIM. Stewart has NO equal in the loser Riddick. Vin diesel couldn't even find the ring..... Dyed red hair.... tee hee guy gardner... tee hee wait! :shock: :shock: give him the role of "the Red Tornado" He can do that......] MAYBE "WAR MACHINE" NEVER LANTERN....

AGAIN NOOOOOOOOO ON WESLEY SNIPES! HE CAN DO BLACK PANTHER ALSO. (i NEVER LIKED PANTHER. HE WAS NEVER REALLY PART OF THE TEAM, HE STAYED BEHIND TO CLEAN UP WHILE EVERYONE ELSE SAVED THE WORLD.)
i GOTTA GO, I AM BEING HAILED BY MY SUPERIORS (INSTRUCTORS)

Djimon Hansou would be the REAL "Black Panther" complete with accent.) Christian Bale or as I call him the "Baleman" As Tony Starks
the Chick from the hulk as Red witch.....
Old avengers or new? Which team?
The hardest part to cast in the comic book world period????

Oh I had the Russ feeling a few days ago too. I just had to ponder the whole idea. He has some good stuff and he is very moldable.
(Plus he has that thing the ladies like. so again the lil lady won't mind this trip to see "another freakin' comic movie..."
As long as she gets to see some pecs and a good fight scene or two. (involving half naked men) Two movies with two different sex symbol action hero guys and a GREAT PLOT something for both worlds.
Hmmmmm. Anyone in hollywood paying attention!!!!!!

try as i might i couldnt find the bat lantern bit ?? i found something on a superman site, the guardians prior 2 krypton exploding were monitoring Lara and Jor El because they knew of their achievements and bloodlines and wanted 2 make their son leader of the guardians and give him a power ring but while the lantern of the krypton sector was on his way 2 give information of the impending end of the planet and need for evacuation he was in an explosion and blinded and could not take the message any further, as Kal El ended up on earth they left him in his current role as he pretty much protects earth anyway! :)

I'm sorry..Mel Gibson???? Maybe back in his Mad Max days he could pull off Hal, but not even if you gave him 10 years back now could he do it. Russel, um..how about NO..even better..HELL NO! He's too short, too smug and doesn't have the debonaire look that Hal needs. Mat Damon I think if he brushed up on the role and took it seriously he could pull off Kyle quite well. Hal is just a casting nightmare I think, but it's funny if the guy who played Green Hornet on the tv show was around and looked the way he did back then he would be perfect for it.

I can only say that only time will tell when it comes to the plethera of upcoming superhero movies. Many will not make it to the box office, others will enjoy that fabulous 2 month stay, which only a select few, maybe 1 or 2 if we're all lucky will make something of themselves. Casting aside, which is hard to do, one of the major downfalls of these movies still remains BAD, VERY BAD scripts. I'm mean come on..you guys remember the line when Storm said "You know what happens to a toad when it's hit by lightning...same thing that happens to everything else." OH GOD..what was that? The one chance in the movie for Holly to shine and it gets fizzled by a bad line. So we will all have to wait and see what happens.

MAT DAMON! BRILLIANT! ( not) If he had ACTING SKILL yeah.
he would make a good Kyle. Crowe may be too short, but how many actors ARE short and noone EVER notices? (HOLLYWOOD MAGIC!!!)
The gibby (mel gibson) is short. Crowe has the skill he would just have to take the time to actually calm down and NOT play the angry man( for once). Hal IS a casting nightmare, but still NOT impossible.
KINGPIN WAS AN EQUALLY AWESOME TASK.
NOONE HAS EVEN TRIED TO TACKLE THE / OF THUNDERBIRD.
Hal is just a little difficult. Take what youv'e got and MAKE it work.....
I mean hell look at travolta in the punisher.
I would have NEVER picked whats his fuck for spider-man, but he was decent.
Somebody took a chance on Christopher Reeves.....
HOT DIGGITY DAMN! Van would fit perfect..... too bad hes like 400 now.... :dancingsad:

It was in otherworlds. Bruce wayne became the green lantern. I never got to read it personally, but my best friend/ cousin has a copy.
(he will NOT even take it out of hiding.) he readi it ONCE! and put it away. :sad:
it's in the link a few posts back. I can't find anything concrete either, but I know it exists.....

Sorry, I don't watch farscape :shock: I saw the dude though, and even though the details are kinda sketchy....
BRILLIANT! Sign him up!
Ben browder and Morris Chestnutt so far......
(MIDGETS TO PLAY THE GUARDIANS?) :lolbonk:

it sounds promising, what form is it in?? live actors and CG robots??

[Cozmo D]

Hey.

Since so many of us seem to be comic book nuts (I used to be a HUGE one though I HATED DC STUFF) and since I'm scaling back my workload somewhat I'm thinking of doing a 3d series right here in the forum. It'll be action rather than comedy, with plenty of graphic violence and sex (OF COURSE), but I've already figured out ways to work us all into the story. If you don't mind me sharing your title and space in your forum Tim, I plan to call it ASTRAL PLANE 2500. :)

If there are no objections, I should have the first installment up before Christmas.

[Hero1]

ha! sounds awesome coz.. go right ahead :bigthumb:

[Etherspin]

go 4 it Coz !

:woohoo:

[Cozmo D]

COOL! :)

http://www.tvtorrents.net/

http://torrent.youceff.com/index2.php

[Etherspin]

i use the original bit torrent program .. but ill bet someone here knows of a better alternative?? im guessing by now you can schedule /cue torrents up to go or to take over if others time out??

[Etherspin]

any marvel fans or people who like the idea of DCs heroes but not the way they are done , look for the "Just imagine" stan lee series , its a set of about 10 comics about wonderwoman batman superman etc but done from a far different perspective.. new origins by stan lee of marvel comics fame.. available on some torrent sites

the page to get em at... (http://www.bi-torrent.com/142.htm)
