Inevitably, every superhero is going to get their own movie at some point. Inevitably, some of them are gonna be bad. Sometimes, I'm so big a fan of the character that I have no idea how anybody could compress everything great about them into a two-hour movie, and I just sit back and wait for the results (Batman, The Flash). Sometimes, I don't really care at all about the character and am just looking for a good movie (Iron Man, Spider-Man).
And then there's characters where I like them just enough to see how they could be broken up into tiny pieces and reassembled into digestible chunks for a larger audience. When I read about the in-progress film ideas for some of these characters, I feel like the lonely genius in all those Oscar-winning movies who doesn't understand why nobody can see what he sees.
So I present to you what might become a recurring feature: My ideas for a film adaptation of some of my mid-favourite superheroes before Hollywood destroys them forever. Starting with Green Arrow.
