Because they are already making a live action Thundercats movie?

Right. They've also got a Voltron movie planned (apparently the Transformers movie got interest in it up).

Futurama, maybe?
I would love that.

Btw, I saw R&B and I didn't think it was too bad. Certainly not as bad as Garfield. To be fair, Garfield doesn't really have much movie material in it. It's basically Jon trying to get the vet to date him and Garfield alternately being rude or eating and sleeping.

I know it's very stupid, but I'd actually like a live-action Toxic Crusaders movie. The cartoon was so cheesy and bad it's hilarious. I believe it did have a movie planned, but it fell through.

And I would also like to see a Street Sharks movie.

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.

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

Yes, I know it. It's not very much like the source material though, so it's not like a live-action would be a remake.

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.

I agree with you. Depending on what the source material is, you actually might not want a movie to be faithful to it. In the sense of Scooby Doo, the movie actually made fun of the cartoons to a certain extent (the voodoo guy commenting on how Daphne always wears the same kind of clothes, etc).

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.

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.

I think they're getting a Captain Planet movie made. Hang on *checks*

Apparently in late 2007 Ted Turner was in talks for one.

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

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