When the hell did THIS show happen?!?! :wow:

2000-2001, 35 episodes. I loved it, it was so different to anything else back then, kind of an espionage show with luxurious European settings and cool Bond/Batman style vehicles and gadgets, plus the hero was a master thief with an intriguing back story as opposed to the more standard hero of the time in animated shows.
 
@aNarcHy2day, I loved Centurions, such an underrated show, the figures were awesome as well. :D

Visionaries, I'd love to see this get made. And M.A.S.K. Loved SilverHawks as a kid, but that might be a little too out there. Same with Inhumanoids.
 
Dinosaucers!!!

I hadn't heard of that one until a few days ago when I came across it on YouTube as part of an 80's toon intro themes vid, the concept could only have existed in that decade. :D
 
I'd like to see Digimon done in the style of the cyberpunk genre. Dragon Ball Z's universe (hodgepodge, but very vague) lends itself to something as elaborate as Tolkien's Middle-Earth, only with great fights vs walking. I'd like to see that.

I think The Rock was attached to Johnny Bravo at some point.
 
A Mask film is long overdue (probably because of the Carrey film).

Question: How will the colours fit a serious Power Rangers? "Biker suits" that are pink, red and yellow may be too bright

re power ranger suits: darker armor that indicates rank in a larger army. Or preference for a martial arts style.
 
Wow I knew I was forgetting a big one in the poll. Yeah i'd be down to see Gargoyles.



Never got a chance to watch it. Was it any good? The failure of that show would definetly affect a potential live action film though.

It's too bad that Disney refuses to do anything with this particular franchise. I doubt we'll ever see a live action adaptation in our lifetimes.
 
While I don't actually expect this to happen any time soon, I have always wanted to see a live action movie adaptation of the animated series Dungeons & Dragons.
 
Voltron all the way.

Just not with the plot I read from Latino Review a few years back.
 
I picked Thundercats (would be awesome in a real life setting) but I also wouldn't mind Bravestar to be made into a live action film. I really don't care how faithful they make it, just make sure you keep in the android horse named Thirtythiry, and his beloved cannon, Sarah Jane!
 
Tom Selleck for Miles Mayhem. If ever a M.A.S.K film gets into prodiction. :woot:
 
No one for Terrahawks? Oh well maybe its in the realms of forgotten world know! :csad:
 
still waiting on my legend of zelda movie

that franchise is just begging for an epic fantasy adventure trilogy

Holly fried beans, how I agree with you.

But are there any blond teens who can suit Link?
 
I remember hearing a few years back that Nintendo is VERY protective of Legend of Zelda and doesn't want to give movie rights away because of what happened with the Super Mario movie.
