News: Rumor has it...

Ever hear about a movie in the works by David Goyer (Batman Begins, Blade, JSA) called Supermax? It's a noncostumed Green Arrow and a ton of DC B- and C-list villains in a Supermax prison that should really just be called Belle Reve (wardened by Amanda Waller, no less).

...well that sounds pretty crazy. And awesome! The more cameos the better!

Are you hoping for modern Calculator, or purple suit Calc? :P

It's about time the villains got their props (why WB can't get it's act together and put them out in movies serving in their respective rogues galleries against heroes, well.. And that's what's killing DC too: a low quantity of quality movies = low market share).

I could go either way! All I know is I squealed like a little girl when I saw that.

Let's hope they stick fairly close to the source material. I love movie Pyro, but he really isn't the same person as his comics self. I would have preferred to see my boy on screen rather than an American teenager.

I heard something about this movie awhile back and thought it sounded kinda cool then, and still like the idea now. Hopefully, it will turn out as good as I hope it does; this is an interesting article. It will be interesting to see how they characterize the villains though... that's where it could really go wrong.

Count Vertigo…Merlyn… Pied Piper… I am so watching this movie when it comes out! :D It’s nice because people who don’t read comic books and watch the movie will exposed to less-known villains and might want to learn more about them. I really hope the villains are going to be written well though because I would seriously be disappointed if they weren’t. (Piper better get more then one line…)
