i wouldn't even do that..u see how watchmen was?? i'll juss start using graphic novels or characters a lot of people don't kno but who have good stories and juss do stand alone films.. watchmen was an example...suicide squad could've been that if they didn't completely fuck it up.. juss get the b list shit burn.. unfamiliar characters can be big hits if they do it rite..make it grimey... deadpool is kinda like that(even though it's a comedy) but it's in its own world and it's like a stand alone flick..need more of that..this is where dc could shine if they decided to go back to the drawing board
I really don't see why this isn't dome more...
I think with 300 and Sin City...we seen it done successfully, the scripts the storyboards essentially are ALL right there.
I aint saying STRAIGHT TRANSLATION...even thought that WOULD be an interesting trend that I think would have a very loyal very profitable audience.
I think the PRIMARY issue is this.
It seems WB/DC is more concerned with making a good COMIC BOOK MOVIE and not just a MOVIE.
The reason winter Solider is already considered a classic is because it was a good movie FIRST and just happened to have super heroes in IT.
even as far back as Blade ( a movie that should STILL get more recognition)
It was a action movie horror movie and comic book movie...but it was a damn good MOVIE.
The Watchman like I said earlier already had all the storyboards dialogue and art everything...but it was a CLASSIC MOVIE because they made sure to agonize over EVERY scene every performance SERIOUSLY...
but you can't do that with EVERYTHING.
It is like the CURSE of DC/WB just because WATCHMEN was the benchmark they seem to be a SLAVE to that look and concept,
EVERYTHING can't BE that it doesn't have to and shouldn't be.
Cause although Marvel went the BRIGHT 4 COLOR COMIC BOOK?
Winter Solider was dark as hell, so was Civil War Ant Man was FUNNY and Guardians was funny dark and a real ADVENTURE...and Deadpool created it own lane PERIOD, but STILL stayed loyal to the source material.
