What would a Kubrick superhero movie have been like?

A ps3 game

It would have to be serious avant garde shit or Shakespearean.

He would have done a Bakshi-style animated film.

less focus on the powers of the superhero, and more focused on the powers that manipulate him

maybe a more macho sexual superman mixed with some bibical shit like samson
>movie starts off with a 10 min fanfare prelude

I don't think that Shelly Duval could take on Jack with no powers.

This makes sense.

I think Jack's character was sort-of meant to be an idiot. He underestimated what a baseball bat could do in the hands of a desperate woman. I don't know how hard a skinny woman could swing a baseball bat in real life, but I suspect that with enough survival drive behind the swing, and the correct angle, it could knock a grown man down some stairs.

the only thing more shallow than capeshit is a Kubrick film, so I would prefer to not even imagine it.

It would have been Barry Lyndon in a cape.

whoa

The Dark Knight Rises we are still plane scening 5 years later.

>>84201288
The plane scene is very reminiscent of Dr. Strangelove.

Probably early-days Iron Man. Focus on his industrialist version and have him as this man conflicted between his will to enhance humankind, but also his uber-conservative/capitalist ideals. The Iron Man would of lesser importance, with Stark being the true protagonist.

I think he'd end the movie in a macabre note, with Stark choosing to profit off a recent invention instead of giving it for free, rationalizing it by saying that more money will allow for more research. The final shot is of him standing in the balcony with a drink in his hand, as the phones ring behind him.

Kubrick died before Snyder broke out in the industry, but I'd imagine he would've preferred Snyder as his successor over Spielberg. Imagine Napoleon or The Aryan Papers directed by Zack Snyder.
