Captain Marvel/Shazam is one of the most interesting characters to me. If you like Spider-man, the same themes are there in Shazam. A young kid who finds himself in possession of incredible power and must now deal with those consequences.
Always loved his stories and has perhaps one of the greatest villains in Black Adam.

The problem with Captain Marvel is that he works best when he's at his corniest. He's still a great character when he's darkened and made serious, but his claim to fame is that his lighter, brighter, more fun series of comics outsold Superman and eventually led to the Superman family of comics becoming what they were in the 50's and 60's. (Thanks to Otto Binder and Kurt Schaffenberger moving from Fawcett to DC.)

Modern DC did him best in the Justice League cartoon, where he was the antithesis of the then brooding and distrustful Superman and Justice League.

I'd understand if they wanted another mega-powered bad-arse superhero to battle Black Adam (the villain who makes Zod look like a lightweight). But I'd hope that they'd lighten it up and let the kids have a movie that they can enjoy as well. When done right Cap's the best kids superhero of them all.
