Just don't by pass Dr. Sivana completely.

It's like Superman without Luthor.

I can use a Superman movie without Luthor. And with an original plot, too.

That's only because we've had a bunch of real BAD Superman movies WITH Luthor.

This is our (possibly) FIRST modern Captain Marvel film.

Mr. Mind. Maybe cast Patrick Stewart.

This one's been bouncing around the internet for months, and it still seems like a good idea. I'd like to see the Rock play a bad guy - be interesting to see if he can turn down the charm.

Billy avenging the death of his parents? So, he's young Bruce Wayne all of a sudden? Since when were his parents killed by a bad guy?

Jerry Ordway in Power of Shazam. His parents were killed digging artifacts in Egypt.

It's when they tried to make Captain Marvel serious.

I think Jerry did a great job. Not to compare his to Smith's, which addressed the essence of the original Parker-Beck concept. But for a super-hero orientation that fit into the DC universe at the time, Ordway's GN was quite good.
