Title: Animorphs versus Mythic Creatures
Post by: Benioff on September 05, 2008, 09:33:34 AM
Maybe I've just been reading too many comic books or Joss Whedon Tv shows but it would have been cool seeing the Animorphs fight Dracula or vampires or werewolves or Frankenstein or zombies or mummies and ghosts and other supernatural terrors.

It could have made for a great Megamorphs. Maybe Marco could have been the gang's frequent savior because of his pop culture knowledge of movie monsters just like Tobias was with his knowledge of paleontology in Megamorphs 2.

Haha!

Well, they did incorporate one mythical creature, in a way - the centaur figure from mythology.  Only they added more eyes and a built-in weapon.  And a few other differences, of course. 

but yeah.  "megamorphs 5: here be dragons" or something, lol.  that would've been great.  And by great I mean hillarious.

Or, what if they'd met some superheroes, like batman or spiderman, or something?  That would be interesting too (I think) - and of course, Marco and Jake would be jerks and try to get the two to fight, so they could finally settle their bet on who would beat the other...

Now you've got me thinking . . . Animorphs vs. Medusa.  Would they be stupid enough to make eye contact?  Ax would be in serious trouble against the Gorgon . . .

Not to mention Charybdis, Scylla, Minotaur, Hydra . . . it would be interesting to see.

I've always wanted to write a fanfic of them coming across Nessy, but getting them to Scotland would have been a challenge...

Hold up just a moment!

Is not the Hippocampus a galndular organ in the bodies of many mammalian life forms?

Half-horse, half-fish, Kelran.  Unless I mistaken, of course.

Esty, can you confirm this or correct me? :P

Actually, it wouldnt. Totally different universe dude. Totally different.

Not necessarily. Maybe there's some race of aliens that are werewolves, and that's where the legend came from. Doctor Who does stuff like this all the time, and it's a sci-fi.

I totally agree with this.  Since it's sci-fi, there's a lot of freedom to incorporate werewolves, etc., if it's done well.

Kelran and Cloaky:

Y'er both correct.

Sorta' the way that a 'tee' is both a shirt and a peg used in golf. TOTALLY unrelated, but the same word.
Then again, they may be related. *ponderponderponder*

Of course it could also be a coincidental intersection of alphanumerics.

Imagine Rachel with Phoenix morph. *shudders* that would be scary, but very interesting. Hmmm. *goes off to begin writing fanfic*

Phoenix as in Comic Book X-Men Phoenix. THAT would be very scary.

I've always wondered what it would be like if the Aniverse and Buffyverse collided 0-o. Or Animorphs and Vampire Chronicles.

I really like this idea!

Did I ever tell you guys about my huge interest in mythology?

I think I read an Animorphs/Harry Potter crossover like this once.

Morphing boggarts or something would be interesting...

There are like TONS of X-overs involving HP and Animorphs. Other fandoms I see alot crossed with Animorphs are SG-1, Star Wars, and various anime shows.

I'm always looking for stuff to crossover with Animorphs. lol. I <3 crossovers.

This would work really well with EverWorld :D

Crayak could create some alternate reality where the Animorphs battle those Universal Studios monsters like Dracula and Frankenstein and the Wolf Man

Good thought! of course because of the rules of the game the Elimmist has to be able to give them allies and mythical morphs.. oh I say! thats alliteration!  :D

Hmm. I just thought of another cool megamorphs fic. I've gotta stop doing that or else I'll crowd up the Fanfic section. Oh, well. *goes off to begin writing another Megamorphs fanfic, again*

Werewolves and vampyres and people complained about the Nartec? Interesting.

Funny you should mention that. A few years ago I came up with an idea for a sequel to my current Animorphs fic (Animorphs Travels) where my character ended up in the Everworld universe. Can you imagine the possibilities? Half the population would think you were a wizard or a god, not to mention that (assuming DNA works in the same way in Everworld) you could morph all the strange creatures and gods.

Ha ha, thanks man. I think I might have to finish Animorphs Travels first, and that could be a LONG time considering I've only just reached the end of part 1...
