If I could make a live-action movie...


With Marvel's THE AVENGERS on the way, I am pumped for superhero teams. This is really just a few ideas, and maybe a plot outline. I don't write fan fiction anymore honestly, but I do come up with ideas because it's just so easy.

Trying not to differ too much from the series or comics or whatever the beginning of this team is, but I might go with an origin story with the characters. Flash, Kit, Mandrake, Lothar might all be younger, so no kids yet. But if they were older, I would consider Billy Zane to reprise the Phantom role, if he got into shape.

The main villains would be Ming of course, but also Kurt Walker / The Weather Demon. I heard he wasn't in the comics, but made for the series. I rather enjoyed that episode. His brother, who would've been the Phantom, becomes a super villain that controls weather. Ming would probably be more a side villain, leading up for a possible trilogy. Course, on the other hand, it might be best to make a stand alone film just in case.
