What Universal Pictures franchise would you like next?
Personally, I'd love to see Telltale take on Johnny English, and with a new film due out this year, isn't entirely impossible is it?

So very, VERY seconded. Not just because I'm such a fanboy of the franchise, but because it lends itself perfectly to the episodic format. The XBLA/PSN game was great, but now we need one that focuses on the interactions.
Schwarzenegger will have some time again and people wouldn't even expect stuff like puzzles. Sounds like a perfect fit to me.
or king kong <
good idea!!!
I can't see a Scott Pilgrim game, because another dev already has the contract, and I don't think it would class as a Universal franchise, because it was originally a comic, not a film. I think Dark Horse was the original publisher, so a deal would need to be struck with them...
Surely Back To The Future and Jurassic Park can't be the only games in this deal...?
'Twas Oni Press, for the record.
Didn't even think of that! Sliders would work perfectly in an episodic format.
YES! That's one of my favorite shows right now! Each episode could be a movie parody, like the paintball and zombie episodes.
I would like that too, though only if it was based around seasons 1 & 2. After that it went downhill, fast.
(also with a new film due out this or next year - though don't know if the new one will also be on Universal)
YES YES YES YES YES!!!
Every childhood dream of mine suddenly forms into place
Well, how about, screw the entire series. Instead of playing with Earth Prime Quinn Mallory, why not a completely new Quinn Mallory? That way you have the full original cast (Wade Wells, Rembrandt Brown, Maximillian Arturo), or you could even play with the Arturo-less cast, as seen in one of the episodes, where professor Arturo never tagged along with them. You'll encounter various Arturos during your travels, and when you finally arrive at your home planet... it has been overrun by Kromaggs. Then you'll meet up with the Arturo that gets left behind, and you'll finally find out if it's Earth Prime Arturo or the other Arturo.
Oh man, Telltale should hire me. Then we'll finally make that game featuring Adam Sandler, Ben Stiller and Rob Schneider.
I didn't know Universal owned Dragon's Lair.
Oh all those deadly and funny puzzle you would need to pass...hmmm!
And Abed could narrate the tutorial, saying things like "Well, if this was a point and click adventure..."
Actually, while I'm thinking of NBC shows...if they don't mind returning to the time travel well, Quantum Leap would be absolutely perfect for an episodic game.
Quantum Leap's series finale brought up more questions than it answered and it ended on a cliff-hanger. The ending was meant to be a cliff-hanger that would lead onto the premiere of season 6, but when the series was officially canceled, they edited the end to make it into a last episode. The ending was so rushed, they even spelled Sam's last name wrong.
Well,
Also since The Dark Crystal was mentioned, I'm only obliged to mention Labyrinth. Oh yes, I would die a happy woman then.
Damn this thread and all it's good ideas.
Cant we all go back to just calling if Firefly? Also I would sell Dave Grossman's soul for TTG to make a Firefly game.
Or worse yet it might be the anti video game Dave Grossman's because he is clearly missing one.
Big fan of the show, and I would LOVE a Telltale Comunity game, but I don't want the characters to look like from the christmas episode. It was a great episode, and the visuals are great, but only because it's appropriate in stop-motion. In a 3D CGI game, it could do better.
Anyway, I found this pic when I was looking at Dan Harmon's Twitter.
What? HELL NO!!
Telltale is not good enough. Square Enix should do it.
