Movie blog Flixist has a list of 8 cartoons that blogger Hubert Vigilla believes should have a feature-length adaptation. The list is below, but I would highly encourage you to visit the original post to read the explenations.
- Danger Mouse
- DuckTales
- Krazy Kat
- Space Ghost
- Little Nemo
- Mighty Mouse
- Cat ‘n’ Mouse
- Gatchaman (aka G-Force, aka Battle of the Planets)
Do you agree with any of these? In my opinion, Danger Mouse has by far the most potential of the bunch. But there are plenty more that I would like to see:
- King of the Hill (bit of a no-brainer really)
- The Flintstones (no live-action nonsense)
- Futurama (a true, big-screen adaptation)
- Atomic Betty (I think it could work)
- Superman (Vigilla specifically mentions the Fleischer style and I agree
On the last suggestion: I hear that the recent (admittedly direct to DVD) animated take on Grant Morrison’s All Star Superman was not too shabby. I’ve not seen it but the graphic novel was the most successful attempt to distill all the classic Superman tropes into one narrative.
Hmm, I might check it out then so.
They have the Fleischer shorts on Netflix, and I’ve fallen in love with them as a result. 🙂
