Time for real superhero movies

[4thstreet]

For the life of me,I can not see why a hockey movie hasn't been made in some time.

I have 4 candidates that movies could or should have been made for by now.
In no particular order.

1-Howie Morenz-sad ending to this 3 time Hart trophy winner career-played by Scott Caan

2-Bobby Orr-Arguably the best player to ever lace them up-played by Matt Damon

3-Wayne Gretzky-No explanation needed-played by Ryan Gosling

4-Mario Lemieux-The only guy IMO to argue with Orr.His point per game for career is spectacular-played by Hugh Jackman.

There are quite a few others with great careers that could be included,but these 4 are way overdue IMO.

Don't worry, the avengers is coming out.

 

[TexasMan]

Kevin Smith is coming out with one next year called Hit Somebody, about the young life of Gretsky.

That movie is about a guy with a knack for fighting.Gretzky certainly does not qualify. lol

 

[TexasMan]

Should have said "loosely based".

I would like to see a fictional story of the front office of a team in the Original 6 era. That is just the start, Id find it interesting.

Player stories dont interest me a whole lot. And I have heard every Flyers story ever

Good angle on the original 6.A factual account on the Habs or Leafs in this era would be a good film.

The Habs actually bought the league Jean Beliveau played in just so they could sign him.

The original 6 all had their territory. Montreal got ALL of Quebec Province. What I want to know is what happened? The Quebec league hasn't produced anywhere near as many players in the NHL as the other two CHL leagues in the past decade or two, probably longer than that.
