Daredevil re-imagined?


Word on the streets of Hell's Kitchen is that Fox Studios is thinking about a possible do over for The Man Without Fear. Taking into consideration the successful resuscitation of the Batman and Incredible Hulk franchises, Fox believes that with the right vision, the same can be done for Daredevil. It's a hypothetical for now, but Fox Studios has struggled with a string of box office duds this Summer, and needs to crank out some hits. Just in case you were wondering, there's no Ben Affleck in sight. I can only hope this remains true. Affleck's cool. Goodwill Hunting is one of my go tos, but he should sit this one out. That's if it happens. For comic geeks this is a must have. Like Iron-Man, Daredevil is a lesser known, yet iconic figure in the Marvel Universe. If done right, DD can be another smash hit for this budding movie genre.

Although unlikely, if someone from Fox sees this post, call Frank Miller stat. He might be able to help. Also, Elektra is Asian, the Kingpin is a fat white man, and Bullseye doesn't have a friggin target carved in his head. At least get him a hat for crimminey sake. ...target carved into his head, what the fuck!? That is all. Sphere: Related Content

They have got to redo DD. The first on stunk. DD blows bat-douche out of the water.

I like Ben Affleck too, but he was a bad DD. Jenifer Garner as Elektra,please. 2 times no less. DD needs to be redone and having Frank Miller involved is great idea. His DD stories are some of the best.

Bullseye and Kingpen have to be recast too.

It was just bad execution by everyone involved.

Daredevil is the man. He gets no respect, though. His story is awesome and his enemies are so sinister. I hope they decide to redo it.

I would love to see Typhoid Mary or even Bushwacker. They were a couple of my favorites.

Frank Miller is definitely a good guy to get involved.
