Aficionado's Movies In Development Hell That I Want To See Get Made

Bioshock

"Gore Verbinski seems to be more interested in doing fucking Clue. Kick his ass out of the director's chair, make it a prequel to the game based on the audio diaries, and hire David Fincher. It could be to video game adaptations what TDK was to comic book movies."

Justice League: Mortal

"Not necessarily Justice League: Mortal, but a JLA movie. It would be in DC's best interest, if they ever get around to it, to not go the Marvel way and just keep it separate from the solo films. JL:M was an interesting concept, but George Miller didn't have the chops to make it as epic as it deserves to be."

Halo

"If District 9 turns out as amazing as I think it will be, Neill Blomkamp should still stay on board as director. Hopefully a decent budget is worked out so we can see this adaptation...eventually. It has major potential as a blockbuster hit."

Superman: The Man of Steel

"Superman doesn't seem to be in WB's immediate list of DC projects, but it needs to be. Whatever happened the Mark Millar trilogy? Returns was a good film for what it was, but Supes needs a reboot fast."

The Flash

"Since Ryan Reynolds is GL, he can't be Flash. Shia Lebeouf is perfect for Wally West, but the movie would most likely focus on Barry Allen with Wally as Kid Flash...no biggie."

He-Man and the Masters of the Universe

"I'd rather they just called this Masters of the Universe. Justin Marks previously wrote the script but when it became clear he was a hack, it's being rewritten by...some guy. John Kung-Fu Panda Stevenson is set to direct. It doesn't look like we'll be getting the epic He-Man we wanted, that is, if it ever gets underway."

Wonder Woman

"Not towards the top of my films I want to see from DC, but Wonder Woman still needs her own live-action adventure. Joss Whedon dropped out as writer due to creative differences, and WW has been in development hell ever since. The biggest challenge is casting her. Megan Fox and Kate Backinsale seem like the biggest contenders."

Deadpool

"This is more like a prediction. Not necessarily in development hell, but with Ryan Reynolds on board as GL, the Merc with a Mouth's solo debut doesn't look like it'll happen anytime soon. Fox will just fuck it up anyway."

    Yes I agree great list. I more than anything want "Wonder Woman" to be made, and feel she is just as important to DC as Superman and Batman, so her time should be near for live-action. You are right about Whedon, though he only left because the studio wanted creative control and told him no on some of his ideas. To which he said if they believed in him, he would return in a heartbeat. I believe that Lauren Schuler Donner (Richard Donner's wife) said just about a week or so ago that Deadpool is in the works. And that it will be a reboot from the Wolverine film. And I just remembered today that Halle Berry is the first person to do a DC and Marvel film, even before James Marsden and Bryan Singer. She was Catwoman, then Storm from X-Men. So Ryan Reynolds is golden to do both films.

    Great list. Every movie on here I want to see, more than most of the crap coming out this year. The fact the production companies are so fast to make small crappy movies or chunky quick blockbusters, but not these babies is killing me. I wish there we're less movies. Like a total of 15 to 20 from each studio in theaters yearly. And more time to make them. I'd rather have few really good movies, like the possible ones on this list, then hundreds of releases nobody will remember. Once again, good list man.
