Barbara Gordon: Batgirl, Oracle Appreciation 2018

Eh...Gunn wouldn't be one of my top picks.

Unless you want them to turn Babs' movie into a full-on comedy ?

If Gunn was in charge, it wouldn't just be Babs' movie.

Also, despite being mostly a comedy, Gunn came much closer to making me cry with Guardians 2 than most directors can.

[Osiris-Rex]

Huzzah! Here's hoping they get James Gunn to replace him.

It's DOA. No one is replacing Whedon. It was only going to be made because Whedon wanted to do it.

I don't think he'd do well with Cass or Babs. Maybe Steph.

I didn't really care for his revamps of the female Guardians in his movie, except for maybe Nebula.

Also, despite being mostly a comedy, Gunn came much closer to making me cry with Guardians 2 than most directors can.

I think Gunn is definitely good for the poignant emotional moments, it's just everything else about his work that makes me think he'd be ill-suited for a Bat-family film.

Perhaps.

Still, getting nothing is better than what we were told we were getting.

Which wasn't much to begin with .

We know he'd want to do a Cassgirl movie and that, along with being a large fan of his work, puts him above most other directors in my mind. Super makes me feel confidence that he can also do darker work well.

'Has Read Barely Any Guardians Comics'.

That's great that he's a Cass fan, but I'm not sure if he'd be able to convey her well, especially since he seems to struggle with action scenes that aren't heavily reliant on CGI.

I feel like Mantis is a close approximation of Cass, if in role if not personality, and he really screwed her up in the movies.

'Has Read Barely Any Guardians Comics'.

Well, I'm just bringing my perspective into this .

What's Mantis like in the comics?

[Frontier]

What's Mantis like in the comics?

She started off as a very arrogant member of The Avengers because of her divine heritage but eventually grew into a very pensive and balanced member of the Guardians.

She's also one of the greatest fighters of the Marvel Universe, and once toppled Thor.

Well...f**k.

Looks like DC is clearing house a bit and everything is on hold until they get their Batman situation figured out. I think the Nightwing director is moving on to another project too and the Nightwing movie is still way, way off if it ever happens.

[WhipWhirlwind]

Name that just came to me, what about Rob Thomas?

I feel like Veronica Mars is very close to the kind of tone I would want for a Babsgirl movie.

[Rac7d*]

this would be a good film, to introduce the real Barbra, Alicia Silverstone, is more of a cass
it would also be opertune time to fix batman and joker and introduce nightwing

I hope they use ivy as the villain, just so they can have her ready for GCS

I could see it.

There has been a development:

Michele Wells is, to my understanding, VP of Warner Bros. So this could have legs.
