Super Max Name Change

Annoying Gaming Habits, and How to Deal with Them

Tabletop roleplaying games, as well as LARPs are exercises in social contracts. Whenever a group of people sit down to play they all have to agree on the system, the arbitration of said system and on hundreds of unspoken rules. Of course, in this hodgepodge system there's always room for someone to start rocking boats, rattling cages and tipping over cows.

Interview: Dustin Nguyen

Batman: Streets of Gotham artist Dustin Nguyen has brought to life characters of the DCU with his unique and striking art style. Dustin’s art work can also be found in the pages of Wildstorm, Supernatural, and the Friday the 13th books. A favorite among comic fans, I had the pleasure to speak with him about his career, comics and the return of Bruce Wayne.

According to Slash Flim, the Green Arrow centric movie Super Max is getting a name change to Green Arrow.

The well-reviewed script, which sees Green Arrow facing off in a high security prison with DC villains like The Riddler, is by Justin Marks, who wrote the aforemenioned He-Man script that’s driving the Internet nuts right now.

Yeah, I think what happened is Warner Bros. did some research on message boards and sites like Major Spoilers and realized no one, NO ONE, would go and see a Green Arrow movie called Super Max. And seeings how the Green Arrow character is fairly popular thanks to The CW’s Smallville (he’s back for season 8 ladies), the name change seems very appropriate.

How hard is “Green Arrow: SuperMax” to come up with? It worked for the PotC movies.

I want to see Captain Cold and the Top, by the way, because there’s no way you can use them seriously in a Flash movie.

Captain Cold works as ‘grizzled old supervillain who’s thinking of retiring’, so he could work in the Flash movie.

Anyway, I’m loving everything I hear about this project and hope it continues.

Captain Cold can work if you give him a new outfit, but works better when you use the rogues as a whole. The Top unfortunately doesn’t have that option. He’ll look silly no matter what.
