    In a bold move on Warner Bros.' part, Suicide Squad is going to be adapted into a movie.  The idea is to make a new franchise out of this.  Suicide Squad deals with incarcerated super-villains set on black-op suicide missions by the government.

    Who will be in it?  Will it be true to the comic?  Variety reports:
    "Suicide Squad" will feature a mix of well-known and unknown villains recruited by the government to accomplish a task deemed too dangerous for superheroes. The historically independent operators must bury their own interpersonal conflicts and agendas to form a cohesive unit to take on a singular task.

    Let's hope they put some actually A-list villains and not some lame ones that no one will care about.  What is 'bold' about this is, it's not quite a marketable movie.  Warner Bros. won't be able to make a line of toys, bedsheets and birthday party plates and napkins based off of this.  It's great that they're actually giving us and movie-goers credit for being intelligent enough to handle and accept something that is different than the norm.

    No word on a release or start date.  Justin Marks ("20,000 Leagues Under The Sea," "Hack/Slash," "Street Fighter") will be writing it.  Fingers crossed...

    Wow, no one cares about this? Deadshot and Bronze Tiger on the big screen? This is badass.

    Ha ha!  I take back what I was saying yesterday on the Joss Wedon thread... they're actually making something without any of the GLA big-hitters!  I'm looking forward to this! :)

    Who do you want to see in the movies people? I say Bronze Tiger, Deadshot and most of all Bane are a must for me.

    Could be quite good or a major disaster.  Let's hope it's not the latter.  Quite a gamble to take on this comic for a movie.  Capt. Boomerang, though?  Errr.....

    They just better get some actual villains and not make up some lame ones because of some silly copyright/legal problem.  Otherwise, what'd be the point?

    The original Squad is who I want to see.

    The biggest legal issue I see is the chance that somebody already has the rights to Deadshot as a Batman villain.  He was in that animated Dark Knight thing awhile back.
