I was looking up DC movies and they soooooooo suck! Other then Batman. What else do they have going?
The last Superman tanked. Wonder Woman never got off the ground.
About the only main Marvel heroes not in a movie recently are:
-Thor, whose in the works.
-Captain America. It’s confirmed film one is a period only piece in WWII. Called Captain America: The First Avenger. Then weeks later the Avengers movie hits. That’s an ambitious plan. And I’m not sure an entire WWII piece can work.
-Doctor Strange
-Namor
Other then that I think the majority of the solo character books who can hold their own were given a chance.
If Marvel could get the Daredevil and start it over like they are with the Hulk, I think it could really go places.
Though I’ll be real and know the Spidey and X-men material are locked by the companies making them now and they won’t let Marvel own them again. Though to give it a fair due, they’ve done a good job with the property and if they can spin more good films, let them.
With DC:
Will the Flash be a big screen hit people want to see? He can run fast. I just summed him up and all he can do. And besides Superman can fly faster. Flash is not impressive and a one trick horse. Good for a team movie, but on his own no.
Green Lantern? The whole, he gets his ring from space aliens, makes the whole concept really wacky I think. If it’s to hold water, dump the alien concept. Make him get the ring from some inventor and make it a more human angle. Forget all the space alien angle, and it might get over. That’s my view on it.
Aquaman? Can this appeal to a mainstream paying audience? No I think not.
How about Green Arrow? Robin Hood light.
Again what does DC got outside the big 3 and at most 4?
The recent Iron Man and Hulk movies were Marvel produced and that helped Marvel keep more profits. With Spidey and X-men Marvel didn’t get most of the profits.
I just mentioned those four properties that took off.
Then we got characters like Wolverine, Daredevil, Thor if done right have a chance to hold their own.
You would think the owners of DC who own their own a movie studio, would make the better movies. And if anyone can cut through the legal red tape it should be them. But probably is the case, too much red tape holds them back.
