Just a reminder for anyone who missed it, most of the original cast got together for a virtual table read of the script during the pandemic.
They also did a home movie version with a bunch of actors. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=lR8pA_WV9QI
This one is fantastic. Best thing COVID gave us.
I feel like Muppet adaptations work best when the source material is serious enough to riff on it, and TPB is inherently very light and fun. I would definitely watch a Fred Savage edition.
Yes to both......take my money!
I would lean towards Muppet, but the swordfighting needs to be tight. With Muppets I can only imagine it looks silly
I suppose a muppet adaption would probably work by being Sirius to a comical degree
[off topic] Someone suggested remaking 'The Breakfast Club' every 20 years, and casting two of the previous cast as the Vice Principal and janitor.
Holy crap, that would be great.
Judd Nelsoon played the principal in a horror film based on The Breakfast Club in 2012. I got to see a screening of it at LA Comikaze, and it was great fun.
Already missed that one by 18 years.
Make Tress of the Emerald Sea instead. Similar story but instead has a badass heroine.
Might be difficult having Sanderson's work getting adapted. He's going to insist that he has full control of the story. Which is a good thing, but most Hollywood writers "wanted to make their own story" as evidenced in numerous adaptations, e.g. Witcher, Wheel of Time (which Sanderson's advice got ignored when he started criticizing the show runner's decision), and many more.
I just hope he gets enough money to produce adaptations of his work by himself.
Combine them both together. Fred Savage is telling his daughter the story and the story parts are muppets.
That's not a remake, that's a sequel. Possibly a soft reboot depending on how much they call back to the first one.
How about no.
THESE WOULD BE SO GOOD.
I accept these terms. I prefer the second option.
I like the first version. Wonder what you can do with not changing the story but the tone and nuance, depeding on the read and the read to.
Fred Savage grew up to be a creep.
NO
i think "remakes" should be normalized.. we need 20 versions of that book, not a definitive one..
