To put it bluntly
I'm back.
Not arguing on the internet like a madman back but I'm back to give you something awesome.
Through 6 years we have seen Marvel movies ran triumphant, gave studios new ways to make a considerable amount of money to help meet their studio quota regardless of quality or exhaustion of genre. Since I have been working on non-stop, I believe I came up with an idea to make a cinematic universe that does not stray into the same humbug idea of a cinematic universe, but rather give a SAGA.
Since many of you are iliterate, a sage is a long and complicated series of events that unfold, which is where my idea comes in. It isn't about making sure there is a ton of easter eggs, or to have an uncontrolled amount of easter eggs, but to make sure that each movie follows through with the hero but not just show it as a movie, but everything is one whole an event through their own universe. This is how I envision my DC Saga, I refuse to use cinematic universe for that isn't what this is. Here is your first look, and explanation of the DC Saga.
SAGA: Origins
1. BATMAN
Batman? Why Batman? Well not only is Batman not only my favorite hero, but he is someone that is no doubt the most profitable out of the bunch, with the Saga, I intend to take liberties with the characters, not turn away from who they are, but also give them dilemnas that will change everything for who they are whether it turns into a negative or a positive, Batman is the one character that rarely has that dynamic in his movies and in the past it has only been the Nolan movies. I figure it would be approriate for this saga in particular to start with him. There is a lot to explore, and a lot to show for in a 80's style Gotham.
The script explores the central theme of trust through the main plot and through the sub-plots, each SAGA movie will explore trust as a main theme given the nature of the story. As for the villain, I decided to use someone who is meancing as Batman's first go around, Hugo Strange, the main to deduce Batman's identity as Bruce Wayne. It seemed oddly easy enough to choose him and to explore the psychology of Batman more, another aspect incredibly ignored through the Batman movies (except for Forever) but is something that would be more interesting if our main hero would have to face off an adversary who not only knows who you are, but can read right through you. Not only is that evil & scary, but makes for a much more interesting aspect.
As of a release date, you can expect it in January in the new year as my first draft has been completed, but I am working hard to ensure a final draft to make sure all is well.
2. GREEN LANTERN
While everyone still has the image fresh in their head about how bad Green Lantern was, here is a chance to actually make Green Lantern we can all know and love for newcomers and fans. Green Lantern not only opens up another chapter in the saga, but opens up a completely different side of the saga altogether in space.
I envision Green Lantern as a buddy cop film inspiring from The Departed & Training Day. Most of the script like many others wished the 2011 Green Lantern movie would of done was explore more Oa, which in fact it does. Think of Hal Jordan as the police rookie and Sinestro is Denzel Washington in this movie, minus the F-bombs. A central theme in this movie focuses on corruption and the morales of good and evil to give a unique twist on the superhero genre. The thing is, Green Lantern will not be written as a superhero movie, but more of a cop movie in space. As GOTG has heated up the box office which explored career criminals turning to do good for the universe, where as Hal Jordan will explore how the universe does not differ from his home planet. It will give not only just an exiciting look at the metamorphasis of the world, but also give us an intriguing tale that should of been.
As for a release date, each of the scripts can be expected January through July which is the expected end date of the first SAGA. So you can expect Green Lantern a month after Batman, as of right now Green Lantern only has notes written down as I go back and fourth between Batman and Green Lantern, but as of now, you do get the aspect of what these 2 films I am trying to aim for.
END OF PREVIEW
Though I can not give much away, all I have are ideas for said movies, so far only 3 more scripts are left, the best I can do is give you titles for each movie that is planned.
1. Batman
2. Green Lantern
3. Wonder Woman
4. The Flash
5. Justice League
For those who are wondering about Superman, Superman is a character who I feel has had his origin retold several different times, he is a hero that fits perfectly for this Saga with the Justice League as his intro.
As for the second saga. Ideas have been tossed around in my end, but the sagas do have a beginning, middle and end in hopes of shooting for three Sagas with the first being Origins. As of now I hope you enjoyed this small preview, and hopes that this does reach out there to many CBM users, it may not because obviously, you do want to see how it begins before your decide to say YEA CAN'T WAIT. Anyways, till then
SOTOJUICEMAN OUT!
