Zatanna’s Aces, You Say.
Share:
Two weeks ago, we reported Warner Bros.’ plans to adapt a feature film
based on DC Comics heroine Zatanna… and the twist is: the film will be a
tween/teen comedy. Here’s what you all had to say about that:

Zatanna would be fun if they kept her along the lines of her appearances on
Batman: The Animated Series. Which would make her a lot like Sabrina.

Just as long as it’s not another Josie.

(Translation: I think not… Maybe somebody will do a Black Canary film
for that. But will it be appropriate to dress her in sexy fishnet stockings? I
think a teen-aged Zatanna might be a pretty cool way to introduce the character
to young people.

Eivom Redanp!

I think that Zatanna’s gimmick (speaking backwards) really only works
well in PRINT.

Have you every heard anything played in reverse? Contrary to what Heavy
Metal detractors would have you believe, you can’ really understand a WORD
of it. As a result, I just don’t see how the audience is going to
understand what she is doing with her magic most of the time. And if you take
away her speaking-backwards gimmick, then I would have to ask what makes this a
‘Zatanna’ movie!

The fishnet hose?
Given that the mainstream audience really has NO IDEA who Zatanna is, why
not just make it something original that you don’t have to pay royalties
for?

It could just as easily be ‘Zatina the teenage We-atch’ and
still draw in the same audience.
