I'm pretty sure there's been Invincible movies in the works for a long time. I'll believe it when I see it.

The series feels made for tv.

Then have him turn Into penance in the sequel.

Oh, I'd also like to see some Jamie Madrox thing. That would be fun.
Moon Knight: Do a Netflix series. Make it episodic. Take cues from Ellis' run and original run.
Ms. Marvel: I think this will happen eventually anyway.
She-Hulk: Blend her various books together. Do lawyer stuff, but also do fun, break-the-4th-wall stuff. She could be Marvel Studios' not-R-rated Deadpool, in that sense. Hopefully they can do this without using a fully CGI character.

It's already been adapted a bunch of times now but I think Jeremy Saulnier would have fucking killed it with a Punisher movie.
Doom Patrol would be cool if offered to somebody with a good grasp on the surreal

Is Silver Surfer lesser known? If so Silver Surfer written by Straczynski

I forgot about Sandman Mystery Theatre. One of my favorite books from the 90s. It would definitely make for a great tv show.
Let's change it to Blue & Gold and I'm in.

Not superheroes, but I'd like to see decent, more faithful adaptations of Hellblazer and Lucifer.
I wouldn't mind seeing some more trippy stuff like The Invisibles or Doom Patrol.
Moon Knight is a great shout, as is Nextwave.

You guys are alright. I loved the ROM comics, I would love a movie adaptation.

I would love if there was an Empowered animated series.
I never knew how much I wanted this in my life until now

Something that is either like Miracleman or the Sentry (the original Paul Jenkins version). You know, a middle aged guy with a belly wakes up one day and remembers that he was the greatest superhero of all. Then things turn ugly when he remembers why he forgot it all, either by choice or by accident.
It is the one story they haven't really gone around yet in Superhero films. It'll make a cool premise for The Incredibles 2.

John Constantine.
Another shot at a Phantom movie could be nice, I guess. He was the OG superhero in tights after all, and had a uniquely transcendant international appeal as a comic before being left marginalized by the current generation. That's a legacy worth tapping into if anything.
Knowing the Hollywood climate today though, they'd probably waste more effort on clumsily trying to set up another cinematic universe for Defenders of the Earth.

Stanley Kubrick could have made a hell of a Moon Knight movie.

There's a really awesome superhero web serial called Worm that could be adapted into a killer TV show. That's my vote.
Turok: Dinosaur Hunter
Is there a more iconic native American hero in comics? In any medium?
Don't we need more dinosaurs in film?
How many comics have been this successful in videogames without ever having a movie?
Too bad Disney is sitting on the rights; they'd probably rather go through the entire Marvel catalogue before they touch anyone else.

Static Shock, I really liked the animated series.

I was going to say Runaways, but the creators of Gossip Girl are apparently adapting it for Hulu. Considering that I really liked the first three seasons of Gossip Girl, I can live with that.

ROM was Lovecraftian cosmic horror blended with cosmic Marvel. Along with that, you had a guy who sacrificed his mortal form to become a Space Knight who yearns for his lost physical humanity. Meanwhile, he is singularly focused on his task to hunt and kill his enemy with absolutely no mercy. Even with such a crazy background, many of the runs were intimate and felt like I was reading horror comics.
ROM is cool as hell.
I hadn't heard about this development (Rogan) but yeah, it would surprise me if it's faithful to the incredibly violent source material. It wouldn't be cheap to make so you know they would want a PG rating.
The Plutonian
Fuck yes.
Also, I would love to see a Planetary movie as a fuck you to all the terrible F4 ones.

Yep.

Turok in an interesting one as I know nothing about the character outside of the video games (in which he's basically irrelevant.) So it'd be cool to properly characterize him, along with the dinosaurs.
