...on the subject of MOTU i knwo its kinda hollow coming from me, but if played right and with a level of maturity it could be a hell of a sword and fantasy franchise. ...

I've got one word for you:
Fisto

what a norse warrior who just happens to wear a giant metal glove, about as daft as many of the other things people want transfered from comic to screen. i'm not a over rabid fan that demands everything should make the transfer i'm not stupid, some would need a lot of major redesign and some have no place making the transfer.

your going to tell me that given a decent script with a good story and a studio like weta or stan winston doing the effects this film couldnt work, i mean your main films this year when you think about are about a drunk pirate, a emo geek in tights,   or a semi truck with changes into a 40 foot robot.

on the subject of the characters being unknown yes they are no way as popular as they were, but when the relaunch first appeared it sold like crazy and the new toon had great rating mostly from kids. sadly it was never advertised and stuck in timeslots like 5 am, and the toys were never able to be found, which is why it failed.

i feel that maybe if they produce a solid film in the vein of harry potter ie mature enough for adults to enjoy but not so mature that kids cant get into it. and it could work.

but maybe your all right and i'm the one who's in the worng. i just feel that with the current cinema it could work :)
