15 Minutes with The Kid Lantern

[Ωmega Man]

I saw a guest viewing this and noticed there were some questions I left unanswered. With it being a few years now some of these questions might have changed in context [the Spiderman film in question] but we'll stick with current stuff. If anybody's got anymore questions though feel free.

If you had the power to grant a live-action TV series or movie franchise to an obscure Marvel, DC, or indy comics character, who would it be? Who would you select to play him or her?

IDK about actors but...

DC: Hitman or Starman
Marvel: Darkhawk or Thunderstrike
Indy: Shadowhawk or Prime

If Dan Didio said you can write for DC Comics but your first shot has to be a character you absolutely despise, who would that character be and outline a story idea for that character.

Damian Wayne is about the only character I truly HATE. Right now the only story somebody really needs to tell featuring the kid is him putting together a team of Teen Titans that doesn't suck. The same old same old isn't working and I doubt the new squad will be any different.

I'd make the team something like Robin, Lightning, Miss Martian, Damage, Superboy [Jon], and use another time-displaced Legionnaire with Tyroc. The idea here is to go for something different that isn't based off the Wolfman era or what's to be considered the 'big guns' of the classic Teen Titans and adult Titans.

Screw it, I'm gonna ask more questions!

1) Ever been to a dirty party?
2) Flip-Flops or Crocs?
3) Which villain/s would you use in a Spider-Man sequel?
4) Which villain/s would you use in a Superman sequel?
5) Which villain/s would you use in a Batman sequel/reboot?
6) Favourite live action portrayal of Batman?

1.) Not exactly, but I've seen people start to get down right in front of everybody numerous times at parties in my 20's.
2.) Flip flops
3.) Gonna assume you mean Homecoming, so if I was following that flick up I'd use somebody big like the Scorpion as well as a more street level baddie like Tombstone.
4.) I've always wanted to see Parasite face off against Superman, and maybe another go with a classic like Toy Man.
5.) I'd wanna use Clayface and then introduce Kirk Langstrom so that in the following film Man Bat could be used.
6.) Most of the live action Batmen have been good for one reason or another, but none of them have really got the character down like some of the Marvel movie stars have. Adam West probably gets this because the cheese was just that good...

How many comics do you purchase monthly?

How often do you go to your LCS?

Do you think the comics industry is better, worse, or the same (as far as quality, story telling etc) as ten years ago? Twenty?

If you could have any of the power rings beside green, which would best suit you?

Should parents pick unusual names (Apple, Freedom, etc) for their children?

Currently none. When there's not a comic featuring Kyle I enjoy enough to go out of my way for I just don't bother.

I used to go at least once a month, now it's maybe 3 or 4 times a year.

I think the industry as a whole is doing better with DC relaunching everything, Dynamite gaining more and more fans, more quality titles being published by Image, and Marvel doing the whole NOW thing. Back in '94 it was still the gimmick of the week with DC's top tier characters and nothing but X Men made the top 10 comics per month otherwise. I think they've come quite a long way.

A ring other than green? IDK probably red or blue. More than likely blue cause I have a lot of faith...

I think naming your kid Apple is a bit much, but when we decided on our son's name we wanted it to be something more original and not taken by every other dozen kids. My son was originally going to be named after the two kids from Neverending Story, Sebastian Atreyu, but my mother in law responded strange to the phone call. When we finally decided on Sampson Josiah I made the wife call the nurses in to get it on the information we had to fill out before calling her mother. Sampson didn't have a name for 3 days cause we couldn't agree on anything...

...anybody else? I feel like I'm on some twisted talkshow with it just being Deadpool.

I thought we were connecting! I'm running out of questions anyway, I'll wait a while to do more.

1.) Got stuck in a revolving door with like three people my first trip to NYC back in '03.
2.) Watchmen or V for Vendetta
3.) Justice League DOOM
4.) Miles Morales will eventually become Spiderman and in response, while DC may be behind on introducing familiar concepts first [like a super speedster, demi-god, etc...] they'll introduce viewers to the Multiverse concept. Then we'll see one of the black Supermen and possibly other awesome storylines featuring multiple versions of our favorite heroes. It may be confusing for new fans but imagine the merchandise that could spawn from a DC movie based on stuff from the Multiverse...
5.) I'd rather not say anything in too much detail, cause I don't want anybody to think less of me because of shit I did as a kid... but at some point in the 7th grade I beat a kid with a fire extinguisher after he called me mom a toothless bitch. In the 6th grade I almost caught a simple assault charge for beating up a 7th grader who beat up some of my friends. I was seen as a badass cause I had to go to court LOL
6.) My family inside of it.
7.) I never lived in a trailer until after I got married. Over time shit just keeps messing up or burning out in the one we're currently in [like our central heat and air, half our electrical outlets in the kitchen, floors getting weak, etc...] and we're within spitting distance from a woman who admitted to breaking into our home over a year and a half ago.
8.) You asked me that before. I vaguely remember him but only remember like a song or two. He isn't bad, but there was better stuff in the 80's.
9.) I liked Tim Burton's Batman as a kid, as an adultI've picked the movie apart but it's still the most enjoyable. The Dark Knight was good also, but it was a lot of the same thing that made Burton's first Batman so successful: the Joker.
10.) The Out of Control story just before Ron Marz left the Kyle GL title that had him being manipulated by the Controllers. Next would be the Hand of God arc where Winick came up with the idea of Ion.
11.) Predator.

1.) Round
2.) Suit
3.) Necktie
4.) Open collar
5.) Huh? Unless I'm wearing a tie I don't button like the top 2 or 3 buttons...
6.) George of the Jungle or Battlefield Earth... only two movies I've ever walked out on.
7.) Took my son down to the docks to try and teach him to swim and such. There's like a little faux beach area where several families do this, however that day there were only three kids in the water and only one my son's age. Since there wasn't any girls for my son to look tough in front of he didn't wanna do much in the water... until the kid his age started talking about his brother being a good swimmer and going out to the buoy. Knowing I've swam with dolphins and rays my son pulls a Regular Show and just goes "Hmm Hmm... Daddy swim to that buoy." At first I didn't want to, thing was about a quarter mile out and marked the spot swimmers can't go past since there are boats and such out there as well. My son Sampson finally bargained he'd get out deeper in the water if I proved to him that I'm the best swimmer around and went to the buoy and back to show this kid his brother ain't got shit on me. I said to hell with it, cause you can't lose face in front of your boy when you're a dad, and I swam out to that thing like I was 20 years old again [last time I went to the beach] and a champ. I immediately regretted that decision once I got to the buoy. It wasn't anchored, there was no resting, and I had to tread water for a bit to get my breath back before backstroking back most of the way. To beat all, the wife didn't even take a pic while I was out that far so half the people I tell this to in person don't believe me. My son now thinks I'm the illegitimate son of Aquaman.
8.) Cake
9.) Everybody hates my oldest sister.
10.) Superman
11.) Kyle Rayner
12.) Aquaman

1.) Period piece set in the 40's with some kinda lense on the cameras to make the film itself look older as well. Solomon Grundy is the obvious choice for a villain and there would either be a mention or two of JSA characters or a cameo from one of them.
2.) Some of my original characters probably like Fire Ant, Plex, and the stuff from my RP's.
3.) After my oldest sister [she's like 53 now I think] told my older nephew [who's just 9 months older than me...] he was stupid in a McDonalds. He shoved a fry up each nostril and rolled around in circles in from of the counter asking for chicken nuggets like he was retarded.
4.) Done that twice on dare's. Only got sick the first time...
5.) I was drunk on moonshine in the 10th grade in the mall and after a chick flirted with me at the local pizza place I walked around erect for God knows how long before noticing.
6.) Classic Star Trek with Shatner.
7.) Probably the first film from the original trilogy. Need to watch those three with my son soon at some point...
8.) Can't say I have an opinion cause I don't really eat fish. The one exception is Long John Silver's but I think it's probably the batter itself that gets me.
9.) I like pickled sausages and it's one of the main ingredients, so I guess it's not bad?
10.) I'd give up on DC completely.
11.) Jeff Bridges... mostly for Tron, Star Man, and the Big Lebowski.
12.) Writing comics and character design
13.) Payday
14.) Chess
15.) I like both, but probably scrabble more...
16.) Black
17.) Windows 7
18.) B v S: DoJ
19.) If I'm not looking forward to it then its whatever shit they're putting out now for chicks and/or children.
20.) Real men wear neither...
21.) Freddy
22.) Blade, but that's just cause a true Punisher movie has yet to be made incorporating all the right elements. I'd LOVE to see Punisher show up in the Disney owned MCU.
23.) 6669, was gonna be the title of a homemade movie I was gonna make with a goth girl who was a freak in the sack.
24.) Family Guy, but IDK about these newer seasons. A little too graphic just for the sake of being graphic. Old FG, new AD...
25.) The Ring
26.) My Bloody Valentine [classic]
27.) Wolf with Jack Nicholsen
28.) Bong Water with Luke Wilson, Andy Dick, Jack Black, among others...
29.) Only if the Rock plays Teth Adam...

Okay, some gaming questions, then:

What's your favorite video game of all time?
What do you play most now?
What kind of game are you best at?
What's the first video game you remember playing?
Are than any old games you'd like to see updated?
Are there any video games that you'd like to see made into a movie which haven't been?

Metal Gear Solid

Lego Marvel

Anything that doesn't have a lot of details, maps, or menus. Classic Final

Fantasy wasn't bad but the bigger they became the further away I stayed.

First game I remember playing was something on Atari 2600. Either Pacman, Donkey Kong, or this game called Jungle Hunt.

I'd love to see some older concept games get remade like the Rocketeer, this noir detective game for regular Nintendo called Deja Vu, anf maybe a Resident
Evil-ish Friday the 13th.

Metal Gear Solid for sure.

OMG lol you went streaking! Must've been fun.

1) If you had to erase one main Earth Green lantern from existence (apart from Simon Baz), who would it be?

2) If you were tasked with making a new Daredevil film, what would happen in it?

3) If you were tasked with making a new Spider-Man film, what would happen in it?

4) Are these questions becoming tedious yet? Good!

5) Do you think Dwayne Johnson would be better as Shazam or Black Adam?

1.) John, just cause he's my least favorite.

2.) It'd be more like DD Year One, we'd see him train with Stick as well as take on the Hand.

3.) I'd do a trimmed down version of the clone saga. Jackal would be the main villain, his first clone would be scared and called Kaine, and the second would be the Scarlet Spider. Ben would still be alive at the end however the fates of Jackal and Kaine would be up in the air.

4.) Nope.

5.) Black Adam for sure. Who gives a damn if he gets more praise for being a badguy, it wasn't a bad thing for Loki and now he's back to being one of Marvel's top characters.

Hey, what about my video game questions.
