Okay, in this top 5, I explore Comic Book Characters who have movie potential, let's start with one who has had one already.

1-Daredevil



Now I know he has already had a movie, but this is a no-brainer.
Daredevil may not have a rich rogues gallery, or that many brilliant stories, but as one of marvel's more popular B-Class heroes, he should get the movie he deserves.
Maybe with him being back with Marvel Studios, he'll get his time to shine with a movie or TV show.

2-Deadpool



Now, being one of my favourite characters, I would love to see Deadpool done right, forgetting that garbage that was Weapon XI.
Now imagine this, an R/18 rated movie, with a sensible balance between action and comedy, some fourth wall breaking, but no too extreme a la Ultimate Spider-Man, and a good cast, very gory, and bam, The Ultimate Deadpool movie.

3- Spider-Man 2099



Now, you may argue that we already have Spider-Man on screen, however, I beleive that comic book movies shouldn't just make it so the GA should understand.
Think of all the great oppurtunities we've missed out on due to the studios worrying that the GA would be confused.
Old Man Logan?
Noir?
House of M?
But I think, with the right marketing and promotion, Spider-Man 2099 could be a hit with both the GA and the CB fans.

4-Iron Fist



He should because.... um, actually, I don't know why.
It's because he could lead into a Heroes for Hie movie.
Probably.

Finally, 5-Namor



Namor is a tricky one, as he could go two ways.
One, introduced in a Fantastic 4 movie and then get a spin off.
Or Two, as a seperate movie franchise.
Either way, it'll lose something if done one way.
Maybe we could do both in the future.

Well that's it for now, look out for next week's top 5, Top 5 Comic Book Heroes who need a game.
