Comics that need movies made. - Blu-ray Forum

What comics do you think should be made into movies next?
I just finished reading Chosen by Mark Millar and can see it being a great movie. Plus it's such a straight forward story that's hard to mess up the way Wanted was ruined.

How about a Spawn movie that doesn't suck.

NovaBomb · 09-09-2008, 07:08 PM

I think Gargoyles would be a good one

Red Hood · 09-10-2008, 12:38 AM

All I want is the Preacher series HBO was going to do.

Batman00 · 09-10-2008, 12:46 AM

I think Marvel: Civil War would be insane as a trilogy or a two part movie

Still love DC, so Worlds Finest or Alien vs. Predator vs. Superman & Batman

yes. i'm reading through all of the civil war series now. awesome.

also i cannot say that i want a good ghost rider movie enough.

i think 100 bullets would make an amazing miniseries.

Excalibur (Captain Britain, Nightcrawler, Etc.) I smell an X-men x-over...

Kryptron · 09-10-2008, 01:48 AM

I would love to see a Rising Stars movie.

209Mason · 09-10-2008, 02:50 AM

Rising Stars!!!!! That would be amazing. One of Straczynski's best! A lot of ideas/characters found in the hit show Heroes can be seen here.

The Red Star! Fantastic and HUGELY underappreciated alternate history series from Christian Gossett. If they could make this movie and match the artistic style of the comic (like how Sin City was true to it's comic) it would be phenomenal.

Battle Chasers! - Awesome story with some great characters! Joe MAD! cuts loose on this book!

Other than that some universes yet to be tapped include.... Sandman, Preacher, Fables, Deadpool, Loki, WE3, Steven King's Dark Tower, Y: The Last Man (Children of Men had a similar theme, but much different story)

Some universes that have already been tapped, but have stories to be told: Batman (The Long Halloween was SUCH a good book), X-Men (Give me something from the classic Claremont/Bryne run... Days of Future Past anyone? Also, the Avengers Dissassembled storyarc with the Scarlet Witch's meltdown.... that was good stuff.) Wolverine (Holy Shnikes this Old Man Logan storyline is AMAZING... Mark Millar is king). We've seen lots of DC stuff recently too, but they should do the Identity Crisis story arc... that was amazing.

I'll have more, but this is what I could come up with off the top of my head.

GOOD CALL! you beat me to it!

For the person above....the guy that made Wanted (Timur.....uh....line) is trying to adapt The Red Star into a series of movies at Universal. Cross your fingers it happens.

Rising Stars was a great series, that had awesome concepts, and good characters (Critical Maas is still one of my favorite characters in any medium) that I hope to one day see in a live action format.
