3. Guillermo del Toro, Director
As much as I'd like to see del Toro parade around in star-spangled underpants, he'd most likely be a much more powerful force behind the camera. The director of Pacific Rim may seem like a bizarre choice, but then you see that most of Wonder Woman's rogues gallery is made up of people named "Giganta," and "Cheetah," and "Doctor Poison." Del Toro has a special skill for making some unique creatures (the entire cast of Hellboy II being perfect evidence of this) that could prove unbelievably handy in one of these flicks. There's also a childlike wonder that goes along with everything del Toro does that would also satisfy that whole "levity" thing I brought up earlier. Not that every superhero film has to be aimed at eight-year-olds and twenty-year-olds with the IQ of eight-year-olds, but it would be nice to leave one of these movies feeling something more than "sad."
