7 C-List Superheroes Who Need Their Own Movies

6. Birds of Prey

648870-birds_of_prey1 One criticism against The Avengers was that Black Widow was the only lady in the crew. While she was awesome--and instrumental in saving the planet--there was a distinct lack of female heroes in the Avengers--actually, in the superhero films in general. So why not turn it over to the best all-girl team in town? Birds of Prey may seem difficult at first. The first issue is that they€™d need to explain why Barbara Gordon is paralyzed from the waist down, which you cannot do without the Joker, a character who can€™t exist without Batman. The second issue is that it would be a huge risk for Warner Bros. After all, to date, there have been zero films staring a female superhero that were well-received by critics. The majority of flops, however, were made by Warner Bros. Remember Catwoman? That film€™s probably the reasons Wonder Woman€™s stuck in development hell. Still, once you get over those issues, you€™re in business. Not only would it help unite the DC Cinematic Universe WB is trying to put together, but it would be a chance to bring Oracle, one of the most unique characters in comic history, to the big screen. As for Black Canary and Huntress, while they aren€™t A-Listers, they have fans. Both are awesome, complex characters who would be a rich addition to superhero cinema. If nothing else, it would be one of a kind.

An aspiring writer, I am an avid fan of everything nerdy. Movies, televisions, games, comics, literature. Anything, I'm interested. Though my real passion is writing. Maybe one day I'll be a published author with books everywhere. Who knows...?
