Speaking of Warren Worthington III....
I envision a movie starring the Angel (or whatever he's called now), maybe done by Jeunet ('Amelie,' 'Delicatessen...').
The Angel realizes that his family riches come from something morally outrageous- the drug trade, or land mine manufacturing... whatever. So he destroys his own family's wealth and begins a journey of self-discovery, saving the poor, trying to undo the crimes he feels he has been an unwitting part to, meanwhile growing in mass popularity and appeal- which, as he gets all Buddhist, he rejects.
Two major elements are I) all he can do is fly- and he knows this. He is vulnerable, yet the envy of millions. II) He is physically beautiful- an Angel.
So, he decides to plan something morally outrageous to rid himself of these fans. He plans everything meticulously, it's really all a show- he really wouldn't do whatever it is.... But it happens, and in the crossfire, he not only kills some folks, but gets horribly disfigured.
End of picture- he flies off disgraced and disfigured and alone. |
