Screw Braveheart

I demand to see Mad Jim Jaspers on the big screen , Fury too !!

Come on - you've been giving us LOTR, Harry Potter, and Narnia for years; you're already dominating fantasy film. And for sci-fi action, you've got James Bond and the recent V For Vendetta and LXG.

Captain Britain film has never even occured to me.

The way Captain America is going along, we may not even get that haha.

Funny you bring this up.....

A little while ago I had this crazy idea
about a Captain Britain/Union Jack movie!

title:
CAPTAIN & JACK

starring:
Kenneth Branagh as Brian Braddock/Captain Britain.
Simon Pegg as Joey Chapman/Union Jack.

It would be sort of a tongue-in-cheeky buddy/action flick.
A lot like Shaun Of The Dead.
Lot's of funny dialogue and situations
combined with killer live-action sequences.
Minimal to no computer animation.

CAPTAIN BRITAIN:

Simon Pegg...

If you haven't watched both series' of "Spaced" yet, I suggest you go out and by the DVDs

Simon Pegg as a superhero......hmm....nah.

Think Shuan of the Dead/Pulp Fiction style
of comedy/action/violence/dialogue!

It'd be perfect.

England. Pfft...glare

Jenny Sparkz ftw.

They should make a Marvelman(miracleman) movie based on the Warrior story which took part in britian, it was dark, excellent and believable.

It would be funnier to have a bloodfest of an Authority film... that'd crack me up. But Kenneth Branagh and Simon Pegg are damn funny guys...

Shaun of the Dead is genius

Finally saw it last night actually, and it was hilarious!

i think the saying is england/britain demand a superhero!!
there is a lack of superheroes who are british.
captain britain is the ovious choice for movie but it would have to be a real good story line.

hey maybe a movie would spark people to actually notice theres a british hero and he would become popular.

It could be such a disaster though... the Cap & Jack idea might actually be far more succesful...

true, it might start a new team for comics.
the britsh version of batman n robin.

Well... I was just picturing it as done by Edgar Write (is that the SoD guy?)... droolio

Why just CB why not an Excalibur movie? Though how good it would be would depend on what lineup you use. If you use the CB,Meggan, Nightcrawler, Colossus, Shadowcat, and Pete Wisdom lineup, I think that would work. However, using the CB, Wisdom, Juggernaut, Sage, Dazzler, and Nocturne lineup would be harder to pull off.
