The trick with those orgin story movies is that you can get the rest of the audience in by giving them the expoistion so they know where they are.

But I agree, this and Hellboy should be interesting as they're from different comic book spheres to Marvel and DC.


: I was just thinking, while reading the below threads, that I like the prospect of a Green Hornet movie.
: Why?
: Because, like Kevin said, not many people know it and therefore there is no huge fanbase of GH geeks to try not to disappoint.
: Its not the type of character where it will be easy to butcher the character.
: But the main reason I like it is that there won't have to be a tonne of backstory, my main reasons for not liking Spiderman and Xmen, and to a lesser extent Daredevil. (Here Xmen2 was redeemed because the backstory had already been told, and this is why I think I will like Spiderman 2 better as well).
: It will be just a nice movie with little backstory, a good comic book action movie that you will just be able to sit down and enjoy, without having to worry about getting caught up in backstory.
: I'm looking forward to it.
