Eh, maybe you're right. Most of the humor did come from it being cartoonish. What about Biker Mice from Mars? Heck, there were plenty of little-known but pretty good TMNT-based cartoons. |

pac-man | No live-action for Freakazoid! It wouldn't come out like you're picturing it in your mind. | |

ZeldaQueen | Oh, I would LOVE a live-action Freakazoid movie. That series was the best! And then they cancelled it. | |

Durrsomething | Freakazoid. With Will Ferel as Freakazoid, that fat kid from Superbad as Fanboy, and Alan Rickman as The Lobe and Weena Mercator as the hopping woman | |

ZeldaQueen | That's a tv series, I believe. The movie remake's for 2010 (on IMDb). | |

I think they're getting a Captain Planet movie made. Hang on *checks* Apparently in late 2007 Ted Turner was in talks for one. |

On that thought, I was always skeptical of the notion of a live-action Underdog, because they'd need to reinvent a few basic principles. The original cartoon, for example, had a lot of characters who were furries. Having a large cast of anrthopomorphic animals doesn't really work in live-action. It's different when there's just one or two anthropomorphic animals, as was the case in Scooby Doo, and would be the case in Jabberjaw, because there, a human actor can stand in there, to be digitally-altered later, and interactions between him and the cast aren't really much different from how a human would do it. |

One cartoon made into live action that I liked very much was that Popeye movie that Robin Williams was in. It felt like a Popeye cartoon was actually thrown onto the screen. |

It's quite difficult to make a live action movie similar to the source material many times, but I do take a more liberal stance towards many of the resultant movies. Dudley Do-Right was poor, and I haven't seen Underdog, but Rocky and Bullwinkle was alright, if not very impressive. George of the Jungle was awesome, as I said in the other thread, although I'm not prepared to tolerate the sequel or Cartoon Network's reenvisioning of the old cartoon. With something like Josie and the Pussycats, it was quite unfaithful to the source material, but the source material was dumb, and the movie actually improved on it by making a brilliant satire of the record industry. Scooby Doo actually worked quite well, partially because it was so funny to see actors do such a good immitation of the cartoon, and partially because the humor of the cartoon was based on such things as Abbot and Costello, which was live-action to begin with. I, for one, would pay to see Jabberjaw adapted. Or maybe not, but it would be amusing. |

Krythor | You do know that Toxic Crusaders was the cartoon version of the gorey B-movie series Toxic Avenger right? | |

THIS IS THE COOLEST THING I'VE EVER SEEN. ...seriously though, as much as I want to believe that other article, my money's on it being CGI. That's just how kids movies work today. I don't even think a Thundercats movie would be good! I just want it for the nostalgia factor; my brother and me used to watch it every afternoon after school on Toonami. Shit was so awesome. |
