So this is just a little thread I made after having a discussion with a friend earlier today. Now there are a lot of movies we want to happen, or movies that studios say will be happening, but then they never pan out.

One that I would be really excited for, but now looks like it has completely fallen by the wayside, was Justice League Dark. Mentions of it first appeared over 2 years ago and Guillermo Del Toro apparently even finished a script for it, but no dates were ever announced, despite the major DC film push, and now Del Toro has dropped the project to focus on things like Pacific Rim 2. So highly unlikely we will see this happening, at least not in the next couple of years. I'd personally love the likes of Zatanna, Swamp Thing etc. to appear on the big screen, and I would love a proper film adaptation to Constantine. Not some half-assed Reeves film, or the PIS-plagued NBC character.

So which films did you really want to see, or heard announcements and rumors about, only for it to seemingly fall through?

Dark Tower

A true Hellblazer, R rated movie starring Matt Ryan.

Marvel Zombies.

I'd be down for some straight up legit Hellblazer ^

DC's Kingdom Come
Batman: No Man's Land
The Last Unicorn
Maus

Dredd 2.

Etrigan the Demon
Lobo (although I might wish that one NOT to happen)

Any type of movie that uses the technology Blur Studios has.

Give me some hard noir Question movie while we're at it.

And a Netflix Series adapting Morning Glories

And a trilogy based on The Sword.

Hitman by Garth Ennis and John McCrea. Oh, man, would that be awesome!!
Transmetropolitan by Warren Ellis and Darick Robertson, but that would be much better as a series.
The Boys by Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson. This series is actually more dark, violent, and filled with more black humor than Preacher!
100 Bullets by Brian Azzarello and Eduardo Risso. Such an underrated series.
Hell House by Richard matheson, the grandmaster of horror's take on a severely haunted house. A brilliant story.

Hellboy 3 by Guillermo del toro
Punisher Netflix series.

Ron Pearlman is actually campaigning for a third Hellboy film.

The Darkness (Image) would be kick ass, especially if Mike Patton reprised his role.

Video game related, I'd love to see a Castlevania film. The possibilities would be amazing, if you ask me.

Bioshock and God of War would be absolutely awesome, too.

sidenote to del toro , he wants to make a star wars film

Ron Pearlman as Slade Wilson... in live action, while voicing him the way he did in the Teen Titans cartoon.

A man after my own heart.


As far as comics go, I REALLY want a Runaways movie, but only if it's written by the author of the comic.

Also, Kick-Ass 3.

If I don't get a Tron 3 there will be bitching. Oh there will be bitching.

Sandman - heard Joseph Gordon-Levitt is involved but i think its still in development hell.

.

I remember hearing about one was planned, Paul W.S. Anderson was attatched to it

After the masterpieces that were the BloodRayne movies, Uwe Boll should do a Castlevania.

Super Troopers 2

I agree with the previously mentioned...

Constantine (I liked the Keanu version, but would welcome anything)
Dredd 2
God of War

Also I think Alex Proyas was working on a Paradise Lost adaptation that eventually got canned. I didn't like his Knowing with Nick Cage, but I still think he has the capacity for greatness. And...

Pandorum

An underrated sci-fi horror/adventure. It was intended to have a prequel and a sequel, I believe.

Grendel would be bad-ass too

Blood Meridian

A Spiderman movie that starts with Peter having already been Spiderman for years and possessing a solid career and girlfriend.

One with all your girlfriends in it. Naked.

My girlfriends are all fat feminists.

Are you implying I'm a fat feminist?

No, I know you a black man with a cool jeep drinking.

A lot of top notch suggestions in this thread (especially a few of Imp's picks), which makes it all the more depressing that many of these won't ever see the light of day. Leading on from my Justice League Dark comments, and as others have said, I would also love a proper Hellblazer film. I think Matt Ryan was a solid casting choice for the NBC show, but the rest of the program was very mediocre, and didn't really capture the spirit of the comics IMO.

A Punisher Netflix series could very well happen, depending on how well Frank is received in s2 of Daredevil.

Ha, you're the biggest dreamer of us all.

Would love a movie about Final Fantasy. A box office and critical hit, as well.


That'd be great.

I'm surprised OP hasn't mentioned the Fallout series. That universe has great potential for a 'The Road' kind of film.

Video game movies are notoriously terrible, and I love Fallout too much to see it get butchered.

The chances of a Fallout film ever being made is extremely slim in anyways.

If they only they spent the amount of money making the movie as they do the games themselves.

I came across this, and it reminded me how much potential the Warhammer 40k verse has to produce some epic movies if a big studio decided to have a proper go at it.

Yeah. Not going to lie. While I do enjoy Matt's performance in the role, Legends is way too goofy a show for that character, really. I mean this is the show where the Legends once Voltron'd into a giant Beebo doll to fight the big bad of the season.

A Sandman trilogy directed by Chris Nolan with Gaiman onboard to contribute.

joseph gordan levitt was supposed to a Sandman film which i think could lead to a trilogy but that project has been in developmental hell

A sequel to You Don't Mess with the Zohan.

Another movie might be happening with Colin Farrell.
