Now that Hollywood is seemingly targeting the 90's, what do/don't you want to see?

I still want them to try Biker Mice from Mars, but the concept is so ridiculous... You'd need James Cameron to pull it off.

Biker Mice is such a non-entity to me that I'm not sure if someone would touch it again. Same with something like Exosquad. I think they have a tiny cult following that's smaller than Gargoyles and I hear people say that doesn't have enough of a fanbase to justify a movie.

My argument there would be small IP recognition is more valuable than no IP recognition at all if you believe things with IP recognition are generally safer bets than original films. So why not take a risk on something that at least has some type of fanbase, so maybe that shouldn't be a problem?

I didn't approach it from "how much money they can make on brand recognition". It's just major part of my childhood. I loved them and it would be really cool to seem the done with expensive production in live action. It's not gonna happen, obviously... There are other cult favorites from 90s that will never get another chance/life.

Oh man, it could totally work... it just needs a slight tweak....

3 anthropomorphic aliens are on the run in space, they are being attacked by an enemy - they divert to a worm hole as their only hope of escaping, which makes the onslaught increase 10 fold. The make it - as they burst out the other side, they hurtle towards earth, crash landing on a baseball field. Charley, a young girl discovers them and takes them in to the closed garage of where she works as a trainee mechanic. She learns they are the last of their kind - she see's their individual craft, which resemble jet ski's, motorbikes etc and is amazed to see them so intrigued by the bikes in her shop and how quickly they see and fix the issues on them. She gives them spare clothes and food and ponders them fo a while, and nick names them... biker mice from mars.
Turns out the worm hole was made by the enemy - the plutarkian's as a means to travel through time/space to plunder resources of other planets and that they had been on earth for a few decades - she showed YouTube footage of weird sightings and 'hoaxes' which the biker mice all confirm evidence of them.

They release a video to get the attention of the enemy, which it does... and a show down ensues.

This is great. I'd love it. It makes the concept less ridiculous, yet retains the core. Just remove our own Mars from the equation. The rest can stay almost the same.

exactly, they are called 'biker mice from mars' as like a spoofy name as Charley jokes about.. but they actually like it..
They wear old/spare clothes from the garage, hence the look and use the bikes in the shop. They dob't have to totally look like mice, just how Ralf from the 80s looks like a weird hairy creature.

It has potential.. it wouldn't be crazy expensive to produce either and you would be able to use prosthetics. It would peak a bit of a stir. Marvel initially published it.

I probably wouldn't alter their look, it's pretty unique and likable. Abandon the idea that they're literally anthropomorphic mice, they're unknown alien species that just happen to look like ones. They embrace the nickname that Charlie gives them. It's a great idea.

That's what I meant, they have their look and it is what it is.. and just happens to look like mice, without being called mice.

 

[Breogan]

...such a non-entity

Speaking of:
It's time!
Mighty MutAninimals making a comeback!?

No?

 

[Breogan]

Awesome! - 'Animorphs' movie in development
Now we need Netflix Animorphs!
What Netflix Stranger Things is to 80s pop culture Goonies/Supernatural/Fantasy kid homage, Animorphs should be to Netflix 90s TV.

LOL the origianl Cosmic Cube Tesseract

Surprised the success of Stranger Things didn't generate a green light path for Animorphs.

Also by now they should really be taping the eXtreme!!! era of every 90s franchise, when characters and figures were all roided up, and had to have extreme gimmicks, massive canons and gear on their shoulders

 

[Dave McFly]

Don't forget Extreme Ghostbusters

 

[Breogan]

Don't forget Extreme Ghostbusters

I could never - Ghostbusters: Afterlife

I'm all for it: Something strange in El Barrio. I don't know if the universe is ready for the Live Action Extreme! Ghost Busters. The sequel/spin-off nobody asked for ...
Cast (now as adults) with the updated Ecto-X(treme) 66 Bronco

that's where the real expansion of the property lies, a live action extreme GB series.

They should make more scary Ghostbusters movie at some point. Like the Extreme Ghostbusters cartoon:

So basically we're getting Extreme Ghostbusters.

It should be inevitable.
Even liked their more thrash inspired theme

 

[Kane52630]

Give me live action Street Sharks and SWAT Kats goddamn it.

 

[DarkKnight88]

We were supposed to get a Seth Rogen produced reboot series of Darkwing Duck a while back. Not sure what happened there.

But I want a movie, damn it! Do it in the style of Mutant Mayhem.

 

[Frodo]

Nirvana the biopic




Ty Simpkins ( Insidious , The Red Door) as Kurt Cobain

 

[psylockolussus]

Disney's Tarzan for a live action movie.

 

[Breogan]

Street Sharks.

Please make it happen hollywood.

...say what you will about the show, the figures were awesome, same with Street Sharks, I got Street Shark figures before watching the show because I thought they looked so good, figures came first then the show came after for me.

Street Sharks - just so we can have flame wars on the net about what an obvious knock off they are of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

Ripoffs or not, I want Street Sharks, and Biker Mice from Mars movies.

Give me live action Street Sharks .... goddamn it.

""
Looks like they are trying to have a bit of a renaissance-
- Street Sharks 30th Anniversary Figures - Toy Review
- Mattel SDCC Exclusive Monster High and Street Sharks Toy Review
Though really the only way and real reason to do this, is to bring back Diesel and retroactively make him the spokes person/leader human rep of the Live Action Street Sharks IP.

If Diesel (a marine-genetic scientist, ....believable!) can mutate into his own Human-Shark hybrid, and drives the Sharkruiser, in an attempt to rescue his SelachimorPhamily, this franchise sells its self.
I mean this is mindlessly jawsome 90s$ sitting in the bank, what more do people want?

 

[TheVileOne]

I'm totally in favor of a Street Sharks movie. It would be bonkers glorious B-movie fun.

 

[kjwan]

Not 90's forgive me, but I've always thought a live action G-Force / Battle of the Planets film would be a killer, this is an animated series from late 70's for those old enough to remember - slight de-rail, sorry...

As we knew it in the West, or the original Gatchaman? Let's have a return to all the sex and violence instead of 7-Zark-7's exposition.

 

[Breogan]

Gatchaman was 70s, off by 2 decades, and they already had a Japanese live action revival (although unfortunately ill received) film, but yeah! Curious if it could still be revived?
