Exclamation Billy Batson and the Legend of Shazam Movie

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0448115/

Got to thinking just how many more SuperHero flicks can they make? I mean, they have to run out at some time, right? Well, looks like Shazam hasn't left his cape out to dry.

I fondly recall the Saturday morning TV show as a kid so this is something I would like to see. Lord, please tell me they will change that gay trim on his gay cape. Fans want to see Captain Marvel, not Captain Maaaarvelous.

They should not mess with Captain Marvel's uniform at all. I hope if this movie is made we get to see Mary Marvel and Captain Marvel Jr. also. If Warner was serious about the JLA movie this movie could help setup that movie.

Uh dude, messing with Captain Marvel's cape is like messing with Superman's cape. You just don't do it especially to a classic character.

So it was ok to go from red to maroon in SuperMan returns? As to Shazam, SOMETHING needs to be done with that frilly crap. C'mon, all he needs is a pair of Ugg boots and a purse to complete the look.

As long as they keep making money, there's no limit.

Marvel prides it's self for having over 5,000 characters.

Of course, not all of them are ripe for movie adaption. But there's a lot to mine.

By the way, this belongs in the Movies & TV forum. NOT the Blu-Ray forum.

Red to a darker shade of red (c'mon, thats all maroon really is) is fine. So if you want to mess with the shade of white, yeah fine. But keep the frills. I'd more liken it to messing with Superman's spitcurl. Its just somethign you shouldnt mess with.

but yeah, i remember this coming up a year or two ago at one of the conventions. Apparently The Rock is involved in some capacity. I think he asked a crowd if they would like to see him play Capt Marvel, and the fans applauded. But then he asked who would like to see him play Black Adam, and the place went nuts.

Honestly, he gets a lot of flack, but I wouldnt mind seeing him in either role. Especially Black Adam though.

The Rock definatly fits the look of the most recent incarnation of Black Adam.

The Rock would definitely make a great Black Adam, though Captain Nazi would also be cool to see as a villain.
