    I feel like that license could do reasonably well as a cartoon television series (no worse in theory than Pound Puppies or My Little Pony or what have you). For it to function theatrically would probably require way better writers than the ones who would be willing to work on a Hungry Hungry Hippos movie.

    Either I've had too much to drink, or not enough.

    Why, Hasbro, why? Why must you toy with my emotions so?

    You bring me so much good with MLP, Dan Vs. and The Aquabats, and yet you constantly keep pulling bullshit like this. I can't stand this much longer!

    You are tearing me apart, Hasbro!

    They're crazy. I don't think they'll ever get it. They betrayed me, they didn't keep their promise, they tricked me, and I don't care anymore!

    That was close. NOT a spambot thread. NOT a spambot thread.

    Ever since Bayformers made tons of money Hasbro has been selling the movie rights to pretty much everything they own.

    Except, strangely enough, My Little Pony.

    I can think of a way for this to work, just not as a G-rated family film.

    To be fair, it didn't really have much to do with the game.

    To be unfair, it was pretty crap. ;)

    Yes, it is fake. There were a few other fake similar ones(different games) as well. Someone did them up when Battleship was announced.
    ...but now this one is going to happen.

    The Monopoly rights acquisition was announced along with Battleship(and one other game I don't recall), so I don't know what that article is talking about in that regard. Unless they sold them back?

    If this article is true, then it's not the only board game getting a movie.

    What's next? Lego world the live action movie?
  • JohroJohro
    edited October 2012
    Technically stop-motion is live action, all film is just a series of shots right? People have been doing that for years. They were just ahead of the game.

    Yeah, that's what Wallace & Gromit is. And the California Raisins, if you're old enough to remember them.

    Gumby baby. Actually I remember a lot of stop-motion stuff.

    Don't forget Harryhausen.

    They already did. It was called "Wall Street."

    Same way you make one out of Clue, turn it into a comedy.

    I hope.

    Okay everybody, stop production.
    I'm sorry but apparently the hammer was just brought down on this one.
