What is your dream DC Comics animated universe film? If you could pick the next subject, what would you do?
For me, it has to be an adaptation of the original Green Lantern/Green Arrow team up starring Nathan Fillion as Hal Jordan and Alan Tudyk as Green Arrow. These guys obviously have wonderful chemistry from Firefly/Serenity and being that Green Arrow is my favorite DC character, it’s a no brained
I can’t think of exactly what I’d want the plot to be offhand but it would be something with a huge budget to showcase exceptionally beautiful and dynamic animation.
Addendum: it would also be a movie with a major theatrical release. We sorely need more high-end animated theatrical releases that aren’t all full of songs, big name actors collecting an easy check, lazy writing that relies on cheesy blink and you miss it pop culture, etc.
Come to think of it, I’d like to see a movie with an original story. I love adaptations of comic material as much as anyone, but if someone came up with a great original idea and it was supported by first rate talent and animation while receiving a wide theatrical release, (and it was a good movie), I’d happily see a flick like that multiple times.
Wonder Woman based on the First Born storyline. I’d also like to see Wonder Woman/Superman vs Zod/Faora. Wonder Woman Bloodlines is coming, but I’m not sure what it’s about. If it is based on the First Born, then I’d have to go with a Batgirl: Year One movie.
Oh man, an R-rated animated Lobo flick?! Great Caesar’s ghost would that be awesome! Balls to the wall action and madcappery as only the Last Czarnian could do it. Plus maybe take some digs at animation from other studios.
A three part animated adaptation of CRISIS ON INFINITE EARTHS told over one year with it leaning into the DC Multiverse of the original series combined with the continuities created since like the DCAU, YOUNG JUSTICE, and NEW 52. Have the animation mimic the look of Perez’s art and bring in Wolfman to assist with the adaptation and watch the units move.
