Considering Capeshit is mainly the Chinese audience and market how insanely well would a New Super-Man movie do? I just finished reading the first trade and think the first arc alone would make a pretty good two and a half hour movie.

It wouldn't make it past the censors.
Wouldn't China flip their shit over the freedom fighters?
Not to mention it would be DC and considering it is not Marvel Disney would buy off critics and reviewers from every corner to make sure the movie doesn't make bank.
And Alpaca, and Dr. Omen, and I-Ching, and about 3/5ths of the Great Ten, and W-W, and some general objections to the plots of several arcs.
>Chinese government would never allow it to fly
>muricans would cry racism on social media
Kenan would be a pretty cool protagonist for a movie, damn shame
I really hope DC goes "fuck it" and puts out a good DTV adaptation. Cut off potential cries of racism by having an entire Chinese cast. If they really wanted to go the extra mile to shut up the terminally offended have a Chinese dub too.
People would just nitpick, they are just addicted to outrage nowadays
I this this artist on the book.
Just about to sit down and read the last 3 floppies. Love this book. Anybody got any guesses about the post-19 title change? JLI? JLC? Shanghai-percrisis?
Infinite Opportunity/Crisis/Crisistunity
New Bat-Man
>Outragefags think it's part of a SJW agenda
I would read a Baix solo book, Baix a best. I wonder if we'll ever get a New Green-Lantern?
They mentioned a Lantern academy, I wonder if he is going to use a bootleg ring since green lantern rings can't be replicated
Otherwise Chinese phantom lantern
If they want avoid creating another human Corps member, and want to just import the Chinese Tangent GL from Earth-9, I'm fine with that.
>>HIVEMIND
>Considering Capeshit is mainly the Chinese audience
What does this even mean?
The highest grossing western films in China are science-fiction.
Baixi would be a great protagonist, he's got so much personal stuff to work with. Sister isa supervillain, under constant threat of being replaced, is literally the fat kid in a world of Chads, coworker is a dick to him, and is dating a chick who is way out of his league - and also another coworker of his, and immortal, and a giant snake who plays a prominent role in his cultural mythos.
I read all of this in one sitting a couple nights ago from Sup Forums's rec and I wasn't disappointed which basically lead to a dr manhattan tier revelation on miracles apparently being real, thanks guys!
That is not what hivemind is, newfag
>and is dating a chick who is way out of his league
She literally build up speed for 12 hours just to be with her first crush and is secretly a giant snake, he will be fine
>New Super-Man
>RHATO
>Green Lanterns
>Super Sons
I am loving Rebirth so far, they are doing wonders with the diversity cast
Even though they're pretty good as a unit are the china bros gonna get trashed by the american league? More important than that will robin bot finally get the respect he deserves?
I'm only reading Aqua Man, Hal Jordan and the Green Lantern Corps, Death Stroke and New Super-Man but I really recommend Aqua Man, probably my favourite Rebirth series so far. How are RHATO and Green Lanterns?
Yang should write it too.
>thinking the mainland would ever accept this ABC comic.
The chinese fucking hate it when foreigners write about china. They want chinese faces and CGI, not satire on china.
Wait how do you do his origin (for a DTV or whatever) without killing Suoerbro?
it's written by a chinese guy
Someone should ask Yang on Twitter if he has considered doing a New Super-Man live action or animated movie.
They're literally the chinese knockoff JLA, I doubt china would really like that truth about who and what they are thrown in their face.
Should do a Ryan Choi Atom movie instead.
People from china consider chinese-americans as americans.
>How are RHATO and Green Lanterns?
RHATO is about Red Hood teaming up with Artemis and Bizarro and creating a group of "outlaws" who will work as double agents to get what they want, Jason and Artemis have great chemistry and Bizarro is great as always, they are like a big family and its fun to see them hang together, I am pretty sure they are going to recruit more members and create their own "Dark Justice League" sooner or later.
Green Lanterns has been great because of how they handled Jess and Baz, they stopped focusing on Baz being a muslin and more on his family oriented car loving side which ended up with him becoming a top tier husbando, Jess is agoraphobic and watching her overthink social situations is adorable, you really see a lot of growth from both characters as you go which is pretty great, I really hope they don't become a couple because I am loving their interactions as partners.
I would be down for an animated feature
2 people posted the same thought at the same time. I've been on Sup Forums since 2005 but sure, keep it up, chief.
So favourite characters? I like Folding Paper Man and Ghost Girl a lot.
>posted the same thought at the same time
So you are a casual, got it
He retweeted this so I think he's down with it:
I... sure, user. Sure. Be well.
>muricans would cry racism
Some people accuse Gene Luen Yang of cultural appropriation because he wasn't born in China, he's just Chinese and writes about immigrants.
>Claims to not be a newfag
>Using the "I've been here since 200X" line that every newfag does
Do they have the same issue with Coates writing Black Panther?
They'd claim its different because a.)Wakanda is fictional (which has some merit) and b.)because BP is a black aspirational narrative (which will show that they're not actually reading Coates' BP).
You've seen through my smokescreen of lies, user. Well done. I'm 12 and what is this
Or it's China's superior improvement. China loves that shit about whitey learning superior Chinese honor, see: The Great Wall with Matt Damon
I would love a Kenan movie, but as other said already, the freedom Fighters would be banned
I know she is not Chinese, but I would love to have Jessica Cruz Green Lantern on that book.
Maybe they can change out the name but keep the democratic rhetoric since in the end they lose anyway?
>Movie gets popular and generally accepted in China
>SJW shits on the racist director for making the chinese 'copy everything from the west'.
What are the odds?
It's a DC movie with a male lead, they'd hate it no matter what.
>I just finished reading the first trade and think the first arc alone would make a pretty good two and a half hour movie.
You are what's wrong with comic books. As much as I like people actually reading comics, the mind-set that every comic should be a movie is the cancer that's fueling and diluting the comic book industry. I implore you to reconsider.
>a New Super-Man movie
Honestly, the best we could expect about Kenan and gang it's an animated movie. Which is totally fine, though, but I don't think they are interesting enough (by now) for that.
I like the Great Ten, but I think I'd much rather read solo series for its members than an actual Great Ten book.
>no book about August General in Iron being China's grumpiest supersoldier bulldozing his way through conflict zones and geopolitics
>no cyberpunk-esque, urban fantasy, gunslinging noir, Ghost Fox Killer book
>no bittersweet family/political drama about Mother of Champions, her short-lived progeny, and the price of patriotism
>no lighthearted book about Celestial Archer trying to balance superhero life with being an agent of the gods
>no travelogue about the Seven Deadly Brothers fightin' 'round the world
>no high adventure Silver Age throwback Thundermind book where he fights colorful supervillains and tries to win the love of Miss Wu with the aid of the schoolchildren of Beijing No.8 Middle School
>no series following the Accomplished Perfect Physician as he tangles with secret societies, conspiracies, and cults
>no anthology book about the men and women who sacrifice themselves as Immortal-Man-in-Darkness
>no Socialist Red Guardsman book that develops a non-Western focused continuity for the Golden, Silver, and Bronze Ages
What's wrong with thinking a story would make for a good movie? Aside from comic books working better as tv shows.
>comic books working better as tv shows.
Un-ironically, this upset me more than it angered me.
>sequential, serialized storytelling works best when adapted into a discreet narrative
The extended runtime of televison shows allows one to develop backstory and continuity that by necessity would be cut from films. The current issue with cape tv shows is over-extension of plot to fill runtime, which is a problem with writers and showrunners, not the format.
You're absolutely right. I've thought more than once about how X-Men should be a high-budget, HBO-esque prestige TV show.
I even wrote out a rough per-episode guideline once that showed me you could do an entertaining and accurate adaptation of pretty much everything in the main books pre-Morrison with only 9 13-episode seasons. The reason I stop there is that The Twelve is a natural epic, long-build-up-to-big-bad-team-up stopping point, even if it ended up mostly sucking n the actual comics. The next appropriate stopping point would be Second Coming probably.
They're the bad guys, so maybe not?
Firstly, the main problem is that DC is not really popular in China. The market itself is dominated by Manga/Manhwa/Manhua.
Secondly, US writers do not on any level, understand the foreign culture/history/perspective/psyche.
So yeah, not going to happen
>Secondly, US writers do not on any level, understand the foreign culture/history/perspective/psyche.
If Americans can't write about foreign culture/history/perspective/psyche then I don't want to see any foreigners trying to write about American culture/history/perspective/psyche.

Some of those are really good. It relies to much on the first arc and I'd prefer to see some slight variance versus shooting their load on people who really won't have any roles going forward.
The really need someone with a lot of charisma as the lead and I don't agree with their suggestion for that reason, although I don't have any alternatives that jump to mind.
>Capeshit is mainly the Chinese audience
The North America market (primarily the USA) can still account for as much as a half billion of a Superhero movie, when it does really well.
NO Superhero movie has EVER made anywhere near that much in China, Japan and South Korea combined.
Well, yeah, no foreigners bother to write about American stuff because no foreigners cares about America
This is why you never give an inch to those people. They are literally why we can't have nice things.
