7 Upcoming Superhero Films That Are Really Unnecessary

While there's a palpable excitement in the air for the likes of Thor: Ragnarok, Justice League and Avengers: Infinity War, there are a lot more superhero films coming in the next few years. Suffice it to say, it's a good time to be a comic book fan right now.

Oh, look. It’s Sony again. How surprising! In case you didn’t know, Bat in the Sun (the team famed for Batman and superhero-related fan films) is already busy adapting the live-action video series Ninjak vs. the Valiant Universe, which makes way more sense than a Bloodshot film. Furthermore, in BITS’s series, Jason David Frank is portraying Bloodshot; therefore, any argument is invalid because the original Green Ranger is superior to all of us mere mortals.

To make matters worse, the latest rumor is that Jared Leto might be in the running to play the titular character. Does this mean he’ll be method acting and sending spiked dildos and half-eaten donuts to cast members again? We all saw how his last endeavor as a comic book character panned out, and let’s just say he’d make an excellent voice actor for an Ace Ventura animated series.

We’re all for comic book companies seeing their properties come to life on the big screen, but if there’s already a series in the pipeline, why rush out a movie? Personally, out of all the Valiant characters, we think X-O Manowar deserves his own film before Bloodshot.
