What cartoon would you love to see made into a series or a film?

AMKC

For me it's the Jetsons.

Anyone remember them?

Very on the ball too about what the future would be like a bit like Star Trek in ways.
It would be so cool if it got both a film and a live action T V series.

I remember a cartoon from years ago called Legend of the Dragon. It was a kind've martial arts/Kung fu type of cartoon but had a supernatural element to it as well. I could kind've see it as a live action martial arts movie. Someone like Donnie Yen or Jet Li could play a role in a film like that.

Here's the synopsis of how it starts.

The show starts when the previous Golden Dragon has passed on to the afterlife and Ang and Ling Leung, seventeen-year-old fraternal twins, born in the year of the Dragon, are next in line for the Golden Dragon power band and user of its mystical abilities to defend the mortal world from evil. Ang has no belief that he will become the Golden Dragon, as Ling is the best fighter at the Dragon dojo. Ling is positive that she will become the Golden Dragon. However, when Master Chin calls upon the power of the Golden Dragon to choose who will be the next golden Dragon, it chooses Ang. Humiliated and furious, Ling storms out of the temple and is tempted by the ultimate dark and evil power of the shadow Dragon. From then on, Ang is forced to fight his own twin sister.

Always thought Batman Beyond would have great potential, a twist on the current superhero genre. Could even bring Michael Keaton in.

I think what you're looking for is The Great Race

Actually predates the series so probably inspired it.

Harry Maguire maybe :P

I dunno, I prefer cartoons to stay as cartoons tbh. But if you really wanted to twist my arm I'd be going with Thundercats, definitely has scope as a TV show for young adults.

And me, of course.

Rogue Trooper from 2000AD

Ulysses 31 is a very very obvious choice

Another 1965 film. With Terry Thomas in fine form as a despicable cad.

Those Magnificent Men in their Flying Machines; Or, How I Flew from London to Paris in 25 Hours 11 Minutes. By a stretch of the imagination it's Dastardly and Muttley except they aren't trying to stop the pigeon.

It was followed up with Monte Carlo or Bust! (1969) which has it's moments.

Outstanding -true to the comic where Rogue favoured mask ripping to beat his opponents .

Oh god after the Cleopatra debacle can you imagine what the "woke" underclass would do with the casting of that one?

Seconded. I came into the thread to say that one.

If they did it well - the dungeons and dragons cartoon would be good as a TV. Not the early episodes but that last 2. It got good and dark just before it got axed.

That's actually happening. DC's The Flash movie in 2022 has Ben Affleck and Micheal Keaton confirmed to reprise their roles as batman. Rumours are for George Clooney, Val Kilmer and Christian Bale to cameo also.

Interesting. I think the success of the TV Crisis has highlighted the potential of multiverse story telling to a bigger audience.
I'm not sure anyone asked for Clooney though!

Most cartoons were "series" though as in they weren't just one-offs or am I missing something?

the purple tin

A feature length Ren and Stimpy.
I could do with a laugh.

branie2

Ditto on the Jetsons, with Will Ferrell as George. I think he'd be perfect for the role.

the purple tin

A King of The Hill movie please, and another Futurama one too.

Feisar

South Park as an actual film would be funneh

Leg End Reject

Pinky and the Brain.

In the first movie they can finally succeed in taking over the world only to lose it all in the second.

The third movie in a franchise is usually sh1t so I don't care what happens.

The Gargoyles animated show from the 90s would be great as a live action film.

Captain Planet as part of the MCU could be cool

On the oposite end of the spectrum, I recently saw on social media a Father Ted thing where they looked like cartoons which could be interesting.
