After the Avengers, do you think that there should be movie based upon the Secret Wars story arc? If so, who should play the Beyonder?

I'd love a Secret Wars movie, but that would mean Marvel would have to regain the rights to many characters, or heavily edit the story.

Plus with the Avengers assembling for the first time in May, I think it's a little too early for Secret Wars.

I think a live action Secret Wars movie would be terrible, but an animated one would be fantastic. They'd have to update the style though. The Beyonder can't rock the Jheri Curl forever!!!

Oh, I think animation is the ONLY way they could go with the jheri curl! It's easy to be retro in cartoons.

@SithLantern93: Heck yes. HOWEVER, for many reasons I don't think it is something that could be done anytime in the near future. As already mentioned, re-acquiring the movie rights back to certain characters, not to mention the FX involved, the many characters. It might be too much for the non-comic book movie goer but I'd wet my pantalones if it ever got produced.

One can always dream...

I'd be more than happy with an animated film.

Spider-Man, Captain America, the X-Men, and Dr. Doom all in one movie? Count me in.

I think Secret Wars could/would be an excellent animated movie.

I'd love to see a Secret Wars animated movie, I think it would be a great move for Marvel, with the rights to all their animated characters back and putting them on dvd, it would probably get more kids into watching their other shows. It was the first series I collected when I was a kid and I haven't looked back since!

Secret Wars

The Secret Wars was a ground breaking mini-series from Marvel that brought all of Earth-616's greatest heroes together to battle with the worst villains under the watchful eye of the Beyonder.
