DC Comics have been working hard to try and catch up to Marvel when it comes to movies. The Batman movies were hits. Green Lantern stumbled (but not as bad as many people say). Man of Steel was a great new start for DC. There is much anticipation for Batman vs Superman and Suicide Squad. Other films have been announced.
With that in mind, here are some DC movies that I would like to see:
1. Martian Manhunter. When I first started reading Justice League, he had been long gone. When he was finally reintroduced, I found him fascinating. He was like Superman and Spock mixed together. I really liked how they did him in Smallville. With the right story, he could have a great movie. I haven’t heard if they are going to use him in Justice League.
2. Hawkman. Hawkman has always been one of my favourite Justice Leaguers. His powers are not that impressive but he looks cool. He has had few chances for live action on TV. When I first read Hawkworld, I immediately thought that story would make a great movie.
3. Legion of Superheroes. I was excited when I heard that the Legion was going to appear in Smallville but was disappointed in the execution. With a big budget, the Legion of Superheroes could be great (but please no Bouncing Boy!).
4. Dr. Fate. I have liked Dr. Fate since the first time I encountered him. He was great in both the Justice Society and Justice League. I also liked how they portrayed him in Smallville. He certainly is more interesting than Dr. Strange.
5. Animal Man. Buddy was a pretty minor character for a long time. But Grant Morrison reinvented him as a normal guy with extraordinary powers. I would love to see him on the big screen.
Who would you like to see?
