Ollie Queen is a man who decided to fight crime as the totally-not a Batman-ripoff superhero Green Arrow. Who shoots things. With a bow. And dresses in green. There have been a few attempts to make a film, and the last one we heard of was helmed by David Goyer. Do you think it involves

His origin: millionaire washes up on a desert island, makes a bow and arrow, learns how to use it, fights drug dealers on the island and turns them in to the cops before returning home and becoming GA.
You haven't done this sort of thing in a while.
Ollie trying to break out a prison full of bad guys no one cares about after being framed for murder.


Seriously, David Goyer, just use Year One. Millionaire with no purpose in life finds himself a natural bowman and feels actually happy Ramboing around taking out bad guys? If handled right, it could be like Iron Man, except more hardcore. Go for gritty Bourne-style realism-have Ollie get roughed up some-but throttle back on the shakycam and throw in some social commentary and you have something the critics wouldn't be afraid to admit they like. Do it.

Do eeet.
