A NEW ZORRO NEEDS TO BE MADE!!!


I'm a huge fan of Zorro movies. Tyrone Power's was the first classic, I recently bought the Guy Williams series(one of the best) the Dunchan regier family channel series was entertaining,and I really loved The Mask of Zorro. (the sequel was okay, but not as good) Anyways, I think they need to make a Don Diego DeLaVega origin story. I like Banderas, but Alejandro Murrietta is not the original Zorro. I think the movie should start with a young Diego leaving for Spain, learning his thing in Spain, and then returning and becoming Zorro in Los Angeles. Almost like a "Batman Begins" Zorro story. I'm not sure who to cast, but I think it should take a lot from the old guy williams Disney series. sergent Garcia for comic relief,(maybe played by Cheech marin or george Lopez) and Bernardo the mute ally of Diego. Just a thought anyways.

I agree. After that train wreck of a sequel, maybe they need to reboot the franchise. One idea would be to make a movie adaptation of the book "Zorro" by Isabel Allende.

I agree, I'd really love to see a new Zorro film. I'm a huge Batman fan and "Batman Begins" was fantastic, Zorro deserves a great origin story like that. Although I always think of that movie when I watch "The Mask of Zorro".
