How badly will DC be BTFO'd when Marvel releases a Wonder Man movie that gets a higher RT score than Wonder Woman?

Hey it's that guy who got sucked into Rogue and forgotten about for like 3 years.

Since he's a Superman analog, not a Wonder Woman analog, probably pretty badly BTFO, I mean come on, it's DC.

A Wonder Man movie will be solid gold, it will be the Entourage of superhero movies.

How about when the Captain Marvel movie blows away the Shazam movie? People will be like "Shazam.. that's an app for recognizing songs, right? Boy, they'll make a movie about anything these days."

Kek /tv/ do you even realize how dumb you sound coming to /co/ and your argument devolves into saying things like this?

DC dominates every market except movies, including comics, the only one that matters cause it's a billion dollar market year over year and one that can turn the stories into whatever media they want.

Wonder Man hasn't been good since the 90s, and Marvel hates him.

There's a 0% chance that he'll ever get a movie, and even in the purely theoretical case that he did get a movie, it would be shit.

Gambit was at least hugely popular once. His decline could be blamed on Marvel mismanaging him, or on it not being the 1990s anymore, but if Marvel put the effort in, they could easily make him popular again.

Wonder Man, on the other hand, the industry seems full of guys who like him, but none of can raise him beyond "a guy that nostalgics vaguely feel ought to be on an Avengers team somewhere".

Literally no fucking point whatsoever. Like making a Blue and Gold movie without Ted Kord.

>"a guy that nostalgics vaguely feel ought to be on an Avengers team somewhere".

what's funny is that's what the best Wonder Man stuff is about. Simon's insecurity at just being a flying brick who's just a normal dude.
>>
Always like Simon as one of the main "secondary" Avengers.

As in the main three are Thor, Iron Man and Captain America.
While the Second tier are Vision, Wanda, and Simon.
>>
>>93924143

Conway, Shooter, Michelinie, Englehart, Stern, Byrne, and Remender all seemed to like him a lot, as well.

Robinson used him in a Secret Wars miniseries, and talked about how much he liked him in an interview.

Jim Valentino liked him enough to put an old man version of him in the 1990s Guardians of the Galaxy book.

Gerard Jones liked him enough to write his solo book.

Brevoort seems to really like him. That Uncanny Avengers issue where Rogue and Wanda both died? Brevoort appeared unable to understand why readers were outraged, he was instead confused why no-one cared that Wonder Man had also died.
>>
>>93924847
>Conway, Shooter, Michelinie, Englehart, Stern, Byrne, and Remender all seemed to like him a lot, as well.
Just Conway and Remender do something nowadays.

Conway only likes him because he is old, Remender likes him because Remender is weird.

Remender was one of the last guys who seemed to love this obscure random marvel u stuff and I miss it.

>Writers who like Simon express their love pairing him and Wanda
>This just makes readers dislike the character because Vision/Wanda is far more popular
He isn't more popular because of said writers.
>>
>>93925406

Never thought of it like that before. It sounds insane, but it's true. The writers and editors who love him keep pushing him in a way that makes readers hate him.

And they're too stubborn or stupid to stop doing that one thing that is the only reason anyone hates him.
>>
>>93924682
Hulk and Ant-Man are above those 3
>>
>>93925453
There was a "how do we make Simon a popular character?" thread not that long ago.

Everyone agreed that He and Wanda are NOT meant to be and only makes readers dislike the two.

Well, shit.

I'd also have to insist on ripping Beast away from the X-Men and writing him like he was in the 70s. Go total "buddy cops" with the two of them. Would that also make people angry?
>>
>>93926008

Someone needs to make Brevoort realise this. He's either the man who's pushing the idea, or the man who keeps allowing it again and again.

They're both going to be on Zub's Uncanny Avengers team, if Marvel do try to pair them up again, it's like they're fighting against MCU synergy on this one thing.
>>

>I'd also have to insist on ripping Beast away from the X-Men and writing him like he was in the 70s. Go total "buddy cops" with the two of them. Would that also make people angry?

Have you seen how much X-Men fans hate Beast these days? Any sympathetic or positive portrayal of him will make them mad.

Simon is basically Peter Parker x Superman
he's a great character
always the highlight of Avengers, WCA and random books

his Rogue has been on point for these past two issues

Which puts him on the level of with Fire and Ice, below Booster Gold and Blue Bettle.

Hulk was never really an Avenger outside of adaptations. He left the team in the second issue and never came back until the movie came out. Even since then he hasn't had much of an Avengers presence in the comics.

A Wonder Man movie would've only been good in the 80s or early 90s. People's interpretation of Hollywood and its actors has changed and Hollywood itself has changed and the ways in which he is charismatic and humorous would've just fit better back then. He'd just come across as too caricature-ish now.

Would you guys be content with them turning Simon and Beast gay for another if that meant a well written new solo for Simon/a buddy cop series for them both?

I'm undecided. Seems very monkey's paw-esque.

DC makes a half billion dollar plus, per year, from catalog trade sales alone. Marble only gets to claim a higher percentage of floppies SHIPPED (not sold) which includes unpaid for over-shipping.

In actual bottom line (look at the filings with regulators), DC Comics is more profitable AND grosses more than Marvel Comics.

Joss Whedon said in 2012 that he doesn't like Wonder Man so that probably hasn't helped Simon.

Not that Whedon kept him out of the MCU but he did go to bat for Vision and Scarlet Witch, but didn't create a Wonder Man for Vision to get his brain patterns from.

He may get in eventually but Gunn wasn't able to fit him in, and it gets harder as they have more and more characters.
