Umbrella Academy Movie Is Coming
What are your thoughts on Umbrella Academy, the comic written by My Chemical Romance singer, Gerard Way? The Hollywood Reporter has announced that a movie is in the works at Universal and will be written by Mark Bomback. Bomback is not a stranger to comic adaptions as he wrote the "Constantine" movie. His other credits include "Live Free Or Die Hard" and "Race To Witch Mountain." I'm not so sure what to think about this.
Umbrella Academy is a good comic (there's been a couple mini's). It deals with an alien named Sir Reginald Hargreeves (disguised as a healthy entrepreneur) who adopts some super-powered kids and trains them to save the world. After his death, they get back together to continue his plan.
I think this can easily make a good movie. It's just a matter of how it will be made. I couldn't bring myself to see "Constantine" so the fact that Mark Bomback is writing this concerns me a little. I will just cross my fingers and hope for the best.
I like Umbrella Academy, and Hellblazer. I saw the movie before I read the comic and liked it, after reading the comic I can't stand the movie. I'm honestly not looking forward to this I feel like bringing this comic to the big screen wont work it's too... different like main stream audiences wont like it so they're going to change a lot of it, I'm just not sure.
I think a movie would need major special effects and look fake. Also, there are so many better comics to make into movies.
despite how much i absolutely love the umbrella academy i do think that it being a movie is going to be the best thing for it atm i just dunno maybe im just worried they wont do it justice or something. there is alot that could go wrong in making this into a movie theres also the fact that many people only like this because of the fact that it was written by gerard way and alot of people that discredit for that same fact, so i think that it should maybe wait a while before becoming a movie.
me encanta se ve super interesante,pero yo no encuentro sus tomos en donde vivo(mexico) cuentan con mi apoyo....................bye gracias a ustedes por crear esta historia ............................amo MCR te quiero gerard =)
I enjoyed the comic so I'm gonna reserve my judgement till I see if this is even made, but I agree with a few people here. This would be kinda hard to make without looking cheesy with CGI, and maybe there are other books that deserve there own movies but if they stay to true to the source material then it could turn out good...at the least to the fans.
