What comic event(s) would you like to see onscreen (live action or animation)?

personally, i'd like to see The Infinity Gauntlet saga, Crisis on Infinite Earth, Legion of the three world, Chaos War

It's completely blue sky fantasizing, thinking about what famous comic arc would get done in live action. It's never happened before; they take aspects of the best stories to come up with something new for live action films. Only exception now is the Avengers. Now that the first teamup has happened against a bigger threat, it could be open season for anything: Thanos, the Kree-Skrull War, Secret Invasion, The Celestials come to judge humanity...but it took six films just to get to this jumping off point.

Animated films, anything could be done. There's less pressure and rules involved in that. Crisis On Infinite Earths would be hugely epic, but probably arrive in a bastardized,compromised effort. I'm looking at clips from the animated version of The Dark Knight Returns, and it's kind of boring because it's too exact; it's the Zack Snyder-Robert Rodriguez style treatment that gives you nothing new to chew on and moves like a walking graphic novel, rather than an adaption.

i can definitely see an animated adaptation of Crisis On Infinite Earth!! I remember seeing Crisis on two Earth (or something like that) and thought oh sh!t, they made it...then i realize it wasn't COIE lol.

Id rather see Superboy Killing everyone to death in an animated Infinite Crisis

I wouldn't mind seeing Kingdom Come on the big screen as a 3 part movie.

ooohhh i would LOVE to see that, tbh! And i hope that that specific line of dialogue will be intact!

An animated version of Sinestro Corps War would be boner-inducing.

lol! Galan, do u think Chaos War would be a good animated project? I know that arc has undergone much criticism but as a film project....it could work?

dynamix
and i think Endless Night would actually be a great animated film.

I still think seeing Kingdom Come on the big screen would be awesome.

Personally, I think Chaos War was too lengthy as a whole for it to translate well into a film... And I didn't think the story itself was very good either.

Since Planet Hulk was already animated, a sequel in World War Hulk would be nice.

It would be great to animate that saga. I always hoped that the IG would make a cameo in that Silver Surfer series that got cancelled but it didn't happen lol.

If Thanos/IG will indeed be involved in the Avengers sequel, then there's no reason why Marvel shouldn't produce an animated version of that saga. Especially since an animated iteration of Secret Wars(involving another nigh-omnipotent character) already exists........

They did The Dark Knight Returns as a two-part movie. If they wanted to do the full Knightfall & Kinghtsend storyline from Batman, with Bane and Azrael, that would take at least three movies to do right. I'd like to see a faithful adaption of that.

Marvel Zombies could also be another candidate for an animated movie.

armedforbattle
Fear itself and Civil War

Speaking of animated movies, Marvel needs to stop fooling around and get us something new.

Korvac Saga

Zombies have been the rage the last 5 - 7 years. They would make a decent bundle on it.

Galan007
Yup, and with all the Marvel Zombies spinoff comics (I think they're up to the 5th series), they'd have room to make sequel films as well.

i really want to see a cosmic arc done onscreen. Preferably animated as i think live action would be too difficult and probably corny, lol.

dynamix
Book of Magic could be a good live action piece. A darker version of Harry Potter lol.
