A discworld series

A good version of The Witcher and some prequels to Avatar: The Last Airbeder.

I would love for a similarly age rated avatar prequel to show my 7 yo. She loves the series, and have been enjoying the comics. I love Korra, but it’s exponentially more mature than ATLA. I don’t think my daughter is ready for korra yet.

A good Berserk adaptation.

[–] YourFavouriteNPC@feddit.de 2 points 1 year ago

I think I love you

Middle Earth. Literally encompassing all of Tolkien's writings. 100% of it, and staying as faithful as possible to the source material (the latest of it that we have) We're starting with the Ainulindale and ending with the Dagor Dagorath. The whole ordeal, no matter how many seasons it might take.

Maybe I'm in the minority here, but please God no.

I'm so exhausted by LOTR stuff at this point. It was good for its time and absolutely advanced the high fantasy genre by immeasurable bounds, but holy fuck it's actually really, really, boring.

What? The 2 page descriptions? I would intend o following them, not having a narrator list a 2 page description of a tree, so don't worry about that. But I would keep the songs and poems.

And if your comment comes from Rings of Power, that show absolutely sucks because it strays very far from the source material and yet still is incredibly boring.

The Dark Tower, true to the books.

[–] xamino@feddit.de 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Wheel of Time would be amazing, unlike the show.

[–] CallumWells@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

I was also thinking WoT animated would be amazing. I think it actually lends itself a lot better to an animated style than live-action.

[–] IncrediblyIncredible 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Brandon Sanderson’s Mist Born series. Would be a perfect fit. Read the books if you havent already. One of the most beautiful endings I’ve ever read.

With an unlimited budget I'd go for the whole cosmere.

[–] HakFoo@lemmy.sdf.org 5 points 1 year ago

Get the Gargoyles guy back, he had like a 50 year vision to execute.

[–] SSUPII@sopuli.xyz 3 points 1 year ago

An anime about the Pokemon Trading Card Game.

[–] hitagi@ani.social 3 points 1 year ago

Not a show but Satoshi Kon's unfinished animated film, Dreaming Machine

[–] Panties@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago

The Reckoner by Brandon Sanderson. Not a lot of people like the series, but I always loved it, and it seemed that so many scenes were written with a visual medium in mind already, and exaggerated in a way that would work well in an animation, not in a Live-Action production.

A good Aku no Hana Adaptation. An adaptation of Akira based on the manga. A remake of Space Ghost (not coast to coast, the OG) that would be an incredible dark sci fi space adventure series.

Maybe also Vielma but good.

A soul eater remake.

Moar Castlevania, maybe based on the GBA Games of SOTN.

A star wars series based on KOTOR and The Old Republic.

And my own stories, of course.

A soul eater remake.

I love you.

I really want a brotherhood style retread that follows the manga. I am SO MAD that I never got to see the Book of Ebon animated!

Also, I'm with you on the Space Ghost thing, only if we can also cut it up to make a new Coast to Coast. I want to have my cake and eat it too.

HD Naruto without fillers.

[–] Mothra@mander.xyz 1 points 1 year ago

Uh only one show? I'd go on a spree if budget was unlimited. I'd be taking in pitches from writers in all genres and have a team of people focused solely on finding new, original content.

But I'd also make some remakes. I think I'd start with Dragon Ball Z, probably because I'm rewatching it right now and I'm enjoying it so much in spite of so many things that make no sense, the filler and some cringe moments. It was great in its time and as it is, but I think it has a lot of untapped potential still.

The end of The Pirates of Dark Water.

The Pendragon series by DJ MacHale

[–] Mandy 1 points 1 year ago

Two things, one, give the claymore anime the fmab treatment and give madhuose everything they could need to make it happen.

Create a competing franchise to warhammer 40k and use this installments earnings as nd stuff to fund any future endeavors, games workshop is in dire fucking need of real competition.
