Rogue Pictures has set a deal with the Wayans Brothers to turn the comicbook SUPER BAD JAMES DYNOMITE into a live-action comedy.

The comicbook, which was created & written by Marlon, Shawn & Keenen Ivory Wayans, centers on Dynomite who is an inner-city antihero who is framed by a rival and sent away for a long prison stretch, but returns hopelessly out of step. He must regain his cool and try to take down the man who framed him. The script was written by Marlon Wayans, Shawn Wayans, Xavier Cook and Mitchell Marchand.

The Wayans Brothers and Rick Alvarez will produce. Marlon Wayans will star.

Please god, someone lock away the Wayans Brothers in the same warehouse where the Arc of the Covenant is kept so as to never be seen again...

the wayans brothers are HORRIBLE film makers ... HORRIBLE. Each other thier films has a "skull and crossbones" posted right to the front of it. Now when i was a kid that meant PIRATES, but the wayans bro's material is straight poison to the IQ.

Oh please, "White Chicks" was actually funny. So was "Don`t be a Menace to Society while drinking your Gin and Juice..."Granted they should be shot on sight for that "Litte Man" movie. In Living Color was a great show too. Some of their stuff is funny and some of it sucks, but that`s like a lot of comedic movies.

The comic is horrible! This actually has a better chance as a film.

Someone should do a live action of Afro Samurai. That toon is bad ass. I really dislike comedic comic books so I don`t see much for a movie.

Does any one remember the Wayens who made "I'm Gonna Git You Sucka"? I'm sad they got replaced by these talentless pod-people Wayens.

Also, it saddens me that any one found "White Chicks" funny. I expect better of you, Ponyboy. j/k

Other than finding ways to put Brittany Daniel on the big screen, the Wayans brothers haven't done anything productive for some time now.

Not one single comment referencing JJ Evans. Odd.
OK, well now there's one...
