So basically the pitch for the movie is this. . .
Gosh I hope not.

I don't want to cast the planeteers since they will probably cast unknowns but I can cast the villains?
Captain Blight - Michelle Phfieffer
Duke Nukem - Dominic Purcell
Hoggish Greedly - Alan Arkin
Looted Plunder - David Tennant
Verminous Skumm - David Thewlis

I was going by the description in the OP. The You Tube trailer is actually a more likely story scenario though IMO. In the OP, the linked article said something along the lines of "Captain Planet had quit trying to save the planet after years of frustration from the apathy of the people, but has to be convinced to return to action in order to save the Earth from self destruction." (I'll have to go back and re-read it, but that was the gist that I got from it.)
The problem with that particular plan is Captain Planet is a being of pure energy. It wouldn't be like in Superman 3 with him sitting in a bar drinking whiskey and ignoring peoples' cries for help. Having one of the Planeteers be the one to get fed up with humanity's greed and apathy and quit the fight makes far more sense. And Wheeler is the obvious choice for such a role, as he is the most emotional character of the group.
Wilmer Valderrama for Ma-Ti!
I don't think it has to be too silly or constantly poking fun at itself. I'm hoping for an Iron Man sequel type tone. It's really not a dorky concept if you love the source material enough.
I mean, how could would it be to unleash tidal waves from a ring on your finger? Or unleash the power of the sun in the same way?
This show is annoying and the exact thing people point to when they bring up entertainment's hamfisted attempts to engage children on the subject of the environment. I'm embarrassed that I watched this show and I still like Power Rangers to this day.
