It's time for a REAL [Superhero] Movie!

So Superhero Movies are big right now. We went from the early successes of X-Men and Spider-Man to some really great films like Iron Man and Dark Knight, to “I can’t believe this actually got made” super successes like Avengers and Guardians of the Galaxy.
But all that shit is just an appetizer. It’s time for the one true superhero to get a movie.
The Anti-Life
The Destroyer of All that Breaths
The hero who has personally taken down like half of the Marvel universe’s villains.
None other than: SQUIRREL GIRL!
Yes, Squirrel Girl. Squirrel Girl is a mutant named Doreen Green who has superhuman strength and agility, enhanced senses and reflexes, claws AND knucklespikes, a prehensile tail, teeth that can chew through wood, and she can talk to squirrels because OF COURSE SHE CAN.
She’s also an expert in hand-to-hand combat, but that’s not a mutant power, it’s just her being a badass.
Squirrel Girl has had an illustrious career, first appearing in Marvel Super-Heroes vol. 2, #8 (Jan. 1992) alongside her Squirrel companion, Monkey Joe. She approached Iron Man about becoming his sidekick, but he declined, right before Doctor Doom attacked and captured Iron Man. Squirrel Girl sent her squirrels after Doom, which ended poorly for him.
Due to the obscurity of this story, nobody bothered to retcon it to say it had been a Doombot the whole time, leaving Doom’s defeat at the hands of Squirrel Girl canon to this day. And thus began her career of defeating every damn super villain who has ever crossed her path.
She was next seen joining the ranks of the Great Lakes Avengers in the 4 issue miniseries GLA: Misassembled. Here’ she helps the team defeat Maelstrom, though during their adventures, Monkey Joe is tragically killed
RIP 1992-2005
You will be missed, Monkey Joe.
Next seen with her new squirrel companion, Tippy-Toe in the Great Lakes Avengers: GLX-Mas special (The team got a cease and desist from the Avengers, so they changed their name to Great Lakes X-men when they realized the surviving members were all mutants) where she defeated MODOK, Terrax and even THANOS! Uatu is even on site to confirm!
She also helps the Thing defeat the Bi-beast, who in gratitude invites the GLX to his superhero poker game, where they win the name “Champions” off of ol’ Ben Grimm. When Deadpool mistakes the rechristened Great Lakes Champions as unregistered heroes during the Civil War, he is put in his place rather savagely by Squirrel Girl, calling him an “evil, evil man.”
Deadpool later teams up with the GLI in Deadpool / GLI - Summer Fun Spectacular, wherein he’s offered a “reserve position” on the team, which he quickly begins to abuse while the GLI is powerless to stop him and Squirrel Girl is distracted trying to save her childhood crush, Robbie “Speedball” Baldwin, from taking a turn for the emo and becoming Penance. The GLI manage to bring her back for the all-important task of booting Deadpool the hell out of their HQ.
Later, after singlehandedly defeating Fin Fang Foom, due to her teammates sitting out, she realizes that as long as she’s around to do all the work, she’ll be holding the team back, so she quits and moves to New York where she begins attending college and becomes the Nanny for the daughter of Luke Cage and Jessica Jones. At some point, she beats Wolverine in a fight. Because.
Her list of on and off-panel victories is impressive
Also there are some other Superhero movies coming out or something, who cares.

This is the wrongest thing I have seen in quite some time
Carter Grayson is one of the best red rangers ever
Just because you were twelve when you watched it and it imprinted on you doesn't make it good
So those guys aren't canceled at least
I was 24 when I watched Lightspeed Rescue for the first time
Carter Grayson doesn't give a fuuuuuck
He charges at a giant, megazord sized monster with just a pistol while screaming at it even though he just gets stepped on
That guy is rad

I still haven't managed to get cap to 60, at 58 now.
whoever she is
Why I fear the ocean.
I see you've been reading my fan fiction
Looks like Renner is wearing a face mask, Mission Impossible style.
I was told the squirrels in Yosemite were not real squirrels as they were fat and everywhere else the squirrels were skinnier.
So I think I may have fat shamed squirrels once.
Sorry squirrels you are all beautiful the way you are.
Satans..... hints.....
Does this include calling everyone "Old sport"?
Why I fear the ocean.
So yes, yes.
I should hope so.
Why I fear the ocean.
It'd make all the money.
It'd be like 21 Jump Street
You mean with the mysterious inclusion of televisions and computers right?
Hands up who thinks I just described BtAS?
Satans..... hints.....
Nah, Batman does his research the old fashion way.
Just do this:
With this:
I would love a Bruce Wayne who's basically just a Gatsby larper
I actually imagine him a lot like Kevin McKidd as Killer No. 2 from Bunraku.
