I am very excited about the upcoming "Avengers" movie. In fact, I may be excited enough to go to the midnight showing. I can't really decide if the midnight showing is for 30 something married dads though...but I digress.
Over the last 15 years, we've had tons of super hero movies. Everyone from Spider-Man to the X-Men, from Daredevil to Elektra, from Superman to Batman has had a super hero movie made. Well, that's not true...not everyone has. Here are some of my favorite super heroes who have yet to grace the big screen, but should be considered very soon.
Author's Note: Come to think of it, Marvel will make a movie about any character they have (Ghost Rider, The Punisher, etc.), so this list is going to focus on the DC Universe.
-Captain Marvel - ok...maybe a story about a 10 year old boy who says "Shazam!" and turns into Superman's equal is a bit awkward, but come on, we had to sit through 3 Blade films and soon to be 2 Ghost Rider films!
-Wonder Woman - She had a run on a TV series...but it's time for a movie. Yeah, the costume is a bit out of date, and the invisible plane is sort of hokey, but she is the queen of the DC universe.
-Aquaman - Ok, so he's not that powerful out of the ocean, but who didn't love the underwater scenes with Jar Jar Binks in "The Phantom Menace"??? This could work...couldn't it?
-Green Arrow - It's gotta be better than "Green Lantern", doesn't it?
-Martian Manhunter - This is one I'd really like to see...the others are sorta tongue in cheek. Martian Manhunter is one bad mama jama...this would seriously be a cool movie.
Ok, if we actually got Martian Manhunter, Wonder Woman and Aquaman movies, to go along with the lame Green Lantern movie, The Dark Knight series and the new Superman film, we could easily roll into a Justice League movie! That would be most excellent. Hey, if they can pull it off with "Avengers", why not the Justice League??? It would be superb!

If they made an aquaman movie, I wonder if they would make it more of a comedy than an action film.
