I want that Luke Cage blaxploitation movie Tarantino was going to make at one point.


Mothman4447

I love that his powers are "I'm tough"


Dragon_yum

“Im already rock hard”


ccarreon

And needs to wear his yellow disco suit and silver tiara, honestly would slap


TheJobSquad

I liked how they included that in the TV show.


AlphaZorn24

I'd like to something Luke Cage


browncharliebrown

Barracuda as the main antagonist


RaWolfman92

No, save Barracuda for Punisher. The main antagonist should be one of his own rogues (either a comic accurate super-powered version of Cottonmouth, Bushmaster, or Tombestone).


MossyPyrite

Tarantino-directed 1v1 Luke Cage and Tombstone 25-minute long beat down in a sushi restaurant is something I would pay to see in theaters 3 times.


Lizzy-Lover_10

Same here.


detourne

Silver Surfer. An epic philosophical sci-fi movie cut off from everything else would be great.


TabrisVI

Give it to Villeneuve and I’m sold. I can’t imagine how epic his version of Galactus would be.


Saloctogonapus

Honestly, this is the way. With his stunning visuals and ability to craft alien worlds, Villeneuve is a perfect choice.


TabrisVI

His sound design is *phenomenal,* too. Galactus would *sound* like a fucking world-devouring God.


codithou

my question would be how do you do a silver surfer story without galactus, and then do that story without the fantastic four? i’m sure it could work but they are so interconnected to me that i’d be curious on how that take would work.


TabrisVI

You wouldn’t do it without Galactus. You could do it without the FF. Just stick to Norrin Radd and space stuff. Don’t even mention Earth.


Sithlordandsavior

For real. Surfer's storyline is like 99.5% in space and then also he comes to earth at one point lol


TiffanysRage

He’s has such an introspective look it would be so awesome to hear him narrate. Start with him as the silver surfer watching Galactus devour a planet and slowly he regains his memories as Norrin Radd ended with him coming to earth.


jb31969

There is a really cool Annual they did a few years ago which was a preamble story to Surfer arriving on Earth. It buttresses nicely and has some not so subtle parallels to humanity and it's shortcomings and redeemable qualities. I always thought that issue was cool and would have made a bad ass Guardians movie, where you have the movie end on a downer with the Guardians failing to save the planet. Sets up Surfer and Galactus as being formidable etc.


BlackBitchy

>Silver Surfer. An epic philosophical sci-fi movie cut off from everything else would be great. "Cosmic Masterpiece"


Healthy-Track-4450

Silver Surfer


jb31969

Doug Jones returning or who would you like to see?


Healthy-Track-4450

I'm fine with Doug Jones returning. He did well in the film he was in


sidjo86

Not the guy you asked the question to but I think Jonathan Groff could make mad decent SIlver Surfer. I recently reread Silver Surfer: Requiem and felt his voice and his demeanor matchup to Norrin Radds quite well.


AbleObject13

Is it weird I think he'd make a good Dr Manhattan?


KevinAnniPadda

The Democratic Senator from Alabama? 


jb31969

lol


MyDadThinksImFunny

Doctor Doom for sure. He has a really complex backstory and a lot of ups and downs, but studios have so far been wasting him as just a fantastic four villain 🥲


LordOfOstwick1213

Dr Doom movie would definitely be interesting.


_curious_one

The problem is that Doom’s origin is intrinsically connected to the FF’s. I suppose they could give him the Joker treatment though 


LordOfOstwick1213

I feel like with Doom movie F4 can appear just in first act when Victor is in college, and after that just stay in US while rest of the movie takes place in Latveria.


MyDadThinksImFunny

Definitely! Tackling trying to save his mother’s soul from a Mephisto, it’s a huge part of the character that not a lot of people (even comic readers) know about unless you’ve checked him out specifically. And especially as he burned his face attempting to commune with her soul in hell, it’s a wild story


TheVoid000

Sentry. I wanna see Sentry help the people and the world, only for the Void to screw it all up ten time.


brownarrows

I'd love that exactly. But I want all of the Marvel hero characters, but they never had powers. Bob was the first and only superhero for 70 years.


your_name_here10

I’d say Daredevil, but I feel like we got this in show. Moon Knight would be great. Hawkeye, following the plot from the Fraction run. Iron Fist


ayoungtommyleejones

Id fight someone to get the immortal iron fist made into a faithful limited series


TheBlack_Swordsman

I'm East Asian and I prefer Danny over Shang-Chi. It's sad what they have done to Danny...


ayoungtommyleejones

He comes off as so cool in the comics, so naturally they thought it would be good to portray him as a whiney brat who basically doesn't do anything. So sad


chickpeenus

Came here to also say that The Batman was given the Daredevil treatment.


RiskAggressive4081

Daredevil was this film but created 6 years before.


Ok_Complaint_8560

Ghost Rider. Something like Keanu Reeves' Constantine would be cool.


spike2pt0

Oooh, I’ll second this one. Not enough Ghost Rider love.


thatredditrando

You know what? This might be my pick too. Ghost Rider is a character that feels ripe for reinvention. It doesn’t appear he has a “definitive” comic run and is arguably more interesting conceptually than in his actual stories. I’d love them to treat him like a legit horror thriller like the Universal monsters or the original *Blade* and just have a small, violent, supernatural kinda movie.


jasenzero1

Might get downvoted for this, but a Ghost Rider 2099 movie or show would be sick.


Weekly_Ad_3665

Either Punisher or Nick Fury.


ekopwolston

Punisher MAX directed by Eric Kripke


d_rettegi

Moon Knight. I have a pitch for a noir psycho-thriller detective story involving him trying to figure out what happened last night after waking up at a police station as a prime suspect of a murder. With the help of his alters he has to recollect his memories of the night in order to clear his name... that, unless he, or one of his alters, has actually done it.


Shack70

Moon Knight would be a great pick for this.


improbsable

Didn’t Moon Knight already get a stand-alone show?


joshinburbank

The show on Disney+ was really good! Episode 5 was intensely emotional (warning: child abuse). I rewatched the last 2 episodes several times. Also totally unrelated to any other MCU stuff. I would watch a movie follow-up!


GKRForever

What movies out there right now are like this? I wanna watch!


tsu_bacca

Captain america. A hard boiled ww2 story


Puzzleheaded-Net3966

Throw in all the howling commandos though, even Logan


mosquem

The Marvel fan urge to connect the universe despite the prompt.


MaDanklolz

Magneto. Edit: dk why this comment went in the replies but it works anyway lol


brownarrows

There's a story there if you include the rest of the Invasion Force. Namor, Human Torch, and Toro.


mosquem

Stop it!


Puzzleheaded-Net3966

Logan is canonically a howling commando 🤷🏻‍♂️


thatredditrando

This might be my pick. I’d love a R-rated, Captain America flick by way of *Saving Private Ryan*. Not in story, but in realism (with the obvious exceptions of some of the comic book-y elements). But I’d love to see Cap parachuting into battle, storming the beaches of Normandy, etc.


DJ_hyperfreshOG

a Superior Spider-Man film would be amazing


mosquem

I feel like one movie would be rushing it and it'd have pacing issues. You could do a trilogy: 1. Death of Spider-Man (Peter dies heroically, Otto takes over at the end) 2. The Superior Spider-Man (Let Otto go HAM) 3. Revenge of the Goblin King (We get the iconic "The one and only" panel)


LegendLynx7081

*here it is*


PotentialDifferent45

I honestly feel like multi part animated movies would be really cool for this story similar to the dark knight returns animated movies


RiskAggressive4081

The original 5 X-Men but the tone would be different.


SundBunz64

Adam Warlock.


Mighty_Megascream

Personally, I want the Hulk to get a solo movie just to make up for the years of mistreatment marvel has given him and just perfectly encapsulate the characters best elements from the tragedy, the duality and the awesomeness. Like a movie where there is very little supporting characters and it’s mainly focused on the dynamic between Hulk and Bruce Banner while they’re on the run from the military, kind of like their debut episode could genuinely be fantastic and give the character the justice they deserve.


fatboi_mcfatface

Universal just has to keep releasing shitty movies a few years apart and they keep the rights. Sigh...


Mighty_Megascream

If Sony can make spider-verse in between their increasingly sad attempts to make a Spider-Man-less Spider-Man cinematic universe, I fail to see why universal can’t do the same with Hulk


matchesmalone1

I think I recall reading the rights to the Hulk are now back with Marvel as Universal hasn't done anything with the character since that 2008 film.


Impractiacal-Advert

Hulk


ShodyLoko

Gambit.


Thanatos375

Monsters and horror are good biz these days. Gimme Elsa Bloodstone.


joshinburbank

You mean like they did in Werewolf By Night on Disney+? I liked her, would watch that movie!


Thanatos375

I haven't watched that yet. Damn, didn't know she'd already made an appearance.


Drslappybags

That would be awesome


Mace_Thunderspear

Yes!


Mace_Thunderspear

Ghost Rider


oraymw

Man-Thing A good one.


RepeatedAxe

Swamp-thing is getting a DCU movie, I'd love to see marvel do something with Man-Thing, I wonder how much that'd confuse the general audience lol, even I get them mixed up sometimes


joshinburbank

I think they depicted him great in Werewolf By Night on Disney+! I would love an expansion on that treatment.


oraymw

Yeah, I agree actually! Love that movie. I just meant that the movie from 1997? I don't think is great.


oddball221

Iron fist, they could do a true origin story but give it The Raid or Raid 2 treatment. Lot of hard hitting martial arts.


nexus2905

The Punisher


N7Longhorn

Winter Soldier hunting down the other Winter Soldiers (Ed Brubaker run)


getridofwires

The Silver Surfer. If they get his inner monologue right, it could be a great exploration of his character.


Ellimist757

Hulk


WeAreVennom

Magneto


HRCStanley97

Characters like Blade, Ant-Man, Hawkeye, Dardevil, Punisher, Elektra, and Black Widow would be obvious choices for me.


Adventurous_Tea_428

Squirrel Girl


CC7793

Blade.


PLEASEBENICET0ME

Doom


BakedZnake

Does Logan count? Or do you mean MCU character?


daybreak-gardening

Legion. Thank god for Noah Hawley


joshinburbank

An amazing achievement! I tell people not to sleep on that show all the time. It is a brilliantly self-contained story, but does involve Professor X in an interesting capacity.


darthyogi

Moon Knight. I just want a Season 2 of the series but it doesn’t connect to anything a part from Season 1.


Bitter-Stranger2863

A Captain America film styled like a war film would be epic. It would be much more grounded and focus on Cap being used as propaganda while also fighting in WW2.


DoodleBuggering

The Hood would work fantastically as a stand alone movie not connected to anything else. R rated crime movie with supernatural elements. Ideally starring Aaron Paul as The Hood.


volkof21

I'd like to see a cable spin off. I'd love to watch him fighting through a post apocalypse earth and time jumping to save the future.


cgrandall2

I'd love a horror/thriller style Bruce Banner movie where it never actually shows the Hulk. He is just on the run, being chased by the government and a trail of destruction. Every now and again he blacks out and he wakes up in a ground zero-like environment. And in the end obviously the monster chasing him is himself.


Kog2025

Black Widow! I need an actual tense standalone spy thriller please


dangerphone

Silly to ask for this after being spoiled with his own franchise for years, but Blade. I’m not looking forward to MCU vampires after how brutal the Snipes vamps got to be, and at this point, I think they should go back to square one with the reboot and really focus on his world being his own.


AlphaZorn24

You should see the Ryan Coogler and Micheal B Jordan vamp movie releasing next year then.


sogwatchman

Not sure I understand... We have 2 Hulk movies, 3 Iron Man movies, 2 Captain Marvel movies, 3 Captain America movies, etc...


jb31969

There is a really cool Silver Surfer Annual they did a few years ago which was a preamble story to Surfer arriving on Earth. It buttresses nicely and has some not so subtle parallels to humanity and it's shortcomings and redeemable qualities. I always thought that issue was cool and would have made a bad ass Guardians movie, where you have the movie end on a downer with the Guardians failing to save the planet. Sets up Surfer and Galactus as being formidable etc.


Chrispy_Kelloggs

Does it count if I say Doom, but it only connects to the Fantastic Four universe.


Obi-wanna-cracker

Ghost Rider. Ghost rider deserves better.


moodsta

No a hero but I think he still counts, Dr Doom. An anti-hero story about him protecting Latvaria would be amazing. Go into his Romanie background and his connection to magic and science


sati_lotus

Now that would be amusing. Start Doom off in the MCU as a hero and have him become a villain over the course of the movies. People not into the comics would be shocked to see the fall of a hero. Especially since he doesn't get redeemed or killed off.


DesaadofApokolips

The Sentry.


Batdog55110

An Iron Man trilogy that actually focuses on his alcoholism and desire to atone for his past sins (I know the first movie sorta focuses on that last part but I'd like the trilogy to go more in depth on it).


Isaac_Banana

Black Panther.


Spectre-4

Black Widow. Do a hard reboot of her character alone and explore her backstory as a spy, both under the soviets and shield. Explore the unforgiving, borderline ruthless nature of being a spy while trying to find your humanity along the way.


-NinjaTurtleHermit-

Doctor Doom


hoaxymore

All of them. Crossover events should be rare and, ideally, unexpected. That’s what makes an audience cheer out of their mind. Having everything constantly interlaced and blended into a standardized Disney smoothie is so intensely boring. Nothing is special anymore.

Black widow


Chemical_Report_2705

Scarlet witch and quick silver and pietro doesn’t die this time maybe Polaris too ??


LordOfOstwick1213

Shame I had to scroll up all the way down to find a comment like this. Scarlet Witch getting a solo movie outside of the MCU would be really great, but judging by the comments here I doubt it'll ever happen sadly.


MarekkV_

Moon Knight


M4RTIAN

Black Widow, but actually make her a badass spy who goes against humans and infiltrates organizations. Not a normal human who fights super humans but somehow never winds up as a splat.


LordOfOstwick1213

The Scarlet Witch movie outside of the MCU. Just Wanda doing the witchy things, saving a country or world from interdimensional threats, and people not knowing what she sacrificed for them.


junglekarmapizza

I want Edgar Wright’s Ant-Man movie


luahgamer5

None. Marvel does universe well. Even though I would love Edward Norton back as Banner


Bruhmangoddman

Winter Soldier.


INKatana

Hawkeye


oldshitnewshit78

Squirrel Girl


Dolsvold

Hulk


HeronSun

We already got that. It's called "Into the Spider-Verse," which, ironically, is not connected to any other universe.


FadeToBlackSun

Hulk, but we'll never get that because Disney are petulant assholes. After that, maybe Daredevil.


TotonnoPrime

Spider-Man, even if it may be crazy to say, Imo it never reached it’s full potential.


GI581d

Either Daredevil, Moon Knight or Spider-Man


GuguMarcos

The thing about The Batman is that they depicted the mantle overshadowing its bearer. By that logic, it has to be a story in which the character grows and fills said mantle, changing it to better fit their core mentality instead of Just going through the motions and escalating things. People already said Silver Surfer, Ghost Rider, Punisher, Moon Knight and Iron Fist... Captain America is a great pick also.


Moosje

I count Logan as our standalone unconnected film.


BrickRant

Captain America would be great to see movies disconnected from the MCU on, that really embody who he is as a character


bolognahole

I know everyone loved Tobey MaGuire. But I feel like there hasn't been a Spider-Man movie that really portrayed the character properly. Tom Holland came close, but those movies were so busy with MCU stuff.


imadork1970

Rom, Spaceknight


Fightinglife77

Wolverine or Ghost Rider


Cidwill

Wolverine. Take him out of the Fox and Xmen stuff and please just give me a movie from his spy days.  Or even his ww2 days. The Wolverine set in Japan was almost perfect for me, but the ending went massively off the rails.


TheDarkCreed

We already had it. It's called Daredevil.


Wocathoden

Icon


life_lagom

We got punisher and daredevil. That was pretty solid.. I think they could do a grounded spiderman with a mob story.. have dare devil show up.


SethAndBeans

Okay, hear me out... Joe Manganiello as Agent Venom.


SittingTitan

Spider-Man could use some of that treatment


pinktastic615

Hawkeye. Bro doesn't get his due. He largely does what batman does, but without the toys and crazy costume. He's fighting alongside "a god and a monster" "with a stick and string from the paleolithic era". But I definitely want something before the Aja-Fraction run. They made him too insecure and depressed. Earlier Hawkeye had an accent and confidence. He knows he can kick azz. "I've beat you before an I'll do it again!"


Patient_Version_1651

I think a Juggernaut movie would be cool, especially if they dig into the whole dynamic between him and Charles


SubstantialTop2995

I'd like to see a mutant do this, like where their powers are starting to manifest and becoming harder and harder to hide.


CaptainTusktooth28

Doctor Strange. So we can get adaptations from his actual books. I want Mr. Misery, Last days of Magic. Hell, just give me a movie of him fighting Mordo and Dormammu with Clea, and I'll call it a win.


ReleasedKraken0

Doom.


Individual_Second387

Daredevil the show and this share really similar DNA, to be fair.


Ferris-L

Very vanilla answer but Spider-Man IMO works best in a contained story. At most I could understand other street level heroes like Daredevil and Jessica Jones or maybe another Spider like Miles, Mayday or Annie, but I genuinely don't like putting him together with characters like Strange because they need to either completely dumb down / nerf those characters to make them work together or they take away from what makes Spider-Man special which is being "friendly neighborhood".


Jotaro1970

Spider-Man


Lost_Requirement4173

I think captain America would be pretty interesting


ZaileeMcFancyCho0113

Daredevil


ll8bitHEROll

Black Knight


SamyMerchi

Hulk. Classic Trimpe era Hulk. Beans Hulk. Banner on the run. Hoboing on trains. Betty whining dad you'll kill the man I love. Talbot whining I want Betty but not like this. New Mexico deserts. Rick Jones whining about feeling guilty about what he did to Banner. Project Greenskin with seventies eighties style helicopters. Ross being a jingoistic hardass. An actual GAMMA BOMB and not some stupid genetic experimentation.


erutrotti

Dr. DOOOOOM.


MrBitterJustice

Blade. Again. Remake Blade


create-an-account4

Oh man a legitimate DR Strange movie like this would be incredible


Dramatic_Parsley_849

Captain America


badblood44

I think Magik could work if the story is centered around her origin and includes the real world effects of a missing girl who appears years later nearly fully grown. The horror elements of her time in Limbo battling Sym I feel would also work really well. Wouldn’t really need any mention of X-men or New Mutants to work.


hypergogetablue17

Hulk


Spino_008

Ghost Rider.


thavillain

That should've been Blade right? As much as Blade is a dope character, it would be weird seeing Vampires in the MCU


Mysterious-Handle-34

Thor


TheBalance724

Spider-Man Noir


improbsable

Mystique. I would love to someone who isn’t a good person get some time to shine. Her life is basically a non-stop spy movie with Destiny as her lover and the person who sends her on missions. They could start a few decades before Nightcrawler’s birth, and end around the time she gets forgiven by both him and Rogue


Stillpoetic45

I said this plenty of times there us an entire hulk story waiting for them. Some of it was used for the 3rd Thor movie. But do planet hulk....you could have easily three movies. Let Edward Norton direct.


MrDrPepper1998

Ghost Rider


Equivalent_Ear1824

Spider-Man. He’s always been best solo


Shaqdaddy22

There’s so many. Cop out answer is Spider-Man. Favorite character and very unhappy with the mcu version. But other than him I’d die for a ghost rider deep dive. Johnny or Robbie


Comically-Yours

A philosophical take on Magneto, one of the best morally grey characters out there, would be cool.


Timeman5

Any dark character Moon Knight, Blade, Ghost Rider, Spider-Man if you want to do a darker storyline, Ronin, Punisher, Heroes for Hire and more I can’t think of right now.


EternalDoc11

The Punisher


Optimistic-Man-3609

Definitely Luke Cage


Herbalbatman

Gambit.


T-MUAD-DIB

There’s only one answer: DOOM


RepeatedAxe

Hulk


LoganRA10

MoonKnight, would be way easier to do some of the trippy stuff with him without having to say whats actually real by needing him to fit in with their reality


frosty2hot

Punisher or ghost rider


NopeNotConor

Punisher: Born could be a really dark movie. Update it to be in Iraq/Afghanistan.


MrSlippifist

Gambit or Storm. They both have rich backgrounds that occurred before meeting the Xmen


jawsthegreat777

I want a Hulk horror movie sooo bad


JW_Jake_2005_YT

Daredevil or Spider-Man

Nick Fury. White or Black, WW2 Vet or not, doesn’t matter. He hasn’t had a cinematic solo outing yet, just a TV movie from ‘98
