but, it still remains, for the most part, that Hollywood is making or has made a movie about just about all decent comic book characters.

I didnt think you were trying to own anyone, but I was like wow pacfanweb came up with alot of movies that i havent heard of then BAM, instant classic.

That's what I came in here to say. One of very few comics I read as a kid. I also liked Black Orchid, but not sure how well that would translate.

How the hell am I "pwned" there, genius?

None of those movies you linked have been made yet, except a VERY OLD version of Dr Strange....and it's pretty obvious we are talking about making movies NOW, with today's special effects.

And WTF is that crap about Flash Gordon? I said FLASH. As in THE FLASH.

Yes, I knew that all or most of those movies were being made or going to be made. But they aren't made YET.

chillax.

that is why i put a question mark after Flash Gordon.

suuuuuuuuuure, you knew those movies were in the works.

If you knew they were all being made why did you only mention the Avengers as slated to being created?
Because UNLIKE the others, some reference to that movie has already been made....go watch the latest Hulk movie for proof.

They were going to make a Justice League movie but last I heard they put it on hold. It just wasn't holding up against Marvel's plans for The Avengers. Marvel is purposefully weaving a movie universe together to work towards an Avengers movie. Justice League wasn't going to have the actors that had been cast as Batman, Superman, etc or the story that wove them together.

There is also a Watchmen movie planned for 2009.

There are hundreds, perhaps thousands of comic book characters that could be made into movies. And not just obscure ones. How many X-men characters were not featured in the movies, for example, and yet were interesting. Gambit is a big one.

I foresee a Gambit stand alone movie, kinda like how they are doing the Wolverine one soon.

It couldn't be worse than X-men 3

Okay, the movies mentioned:

Wonder Woman

Comments:
Scripting.
Status Updated:

So that's still a pipe dream, not shooting, nobody chosen for the role, just a "it's going to be made".

Green Lantern:
Rumours surrounding a Green Lantern adaptation have been circulating for years, with Jack Black at one stage attached to a comedy version of the title.
Other links I found say the screenplay is still being written. Nowhere close to making a movie yet.

The Flash Link

As all can see, even though there are plans for all of these, none of them are currently filming, so they won't be out anytime soon.

It does look like Marvel has a overall plan for their "universe" of characters, which will allow for cameo and such much better than DC.

Personally, I enjoyed the DC comics as a kid, but always thought Marvel was much better.

I really enjoyed The Darkness comics. Glad to see a game of it, but a slick rated R movie would be cool too.

Sure there are thousands of comic books out there. Name one that the average person would recognize if they made a movie out of it?
