People that say there isn't a big enough fanbase for Animorphs forget the fact that in the future there may be a diehard fan that wants to make the movie as much as we do. You don't need a big fanbase, all you need is one fan committed to doing it. At this point the movie would be a resurrection of the series, most of the moviegoes would be newcomers anyway.

But anyway, its good to comment on people's ideas but don't turn this into another "it's never gonna happen, so stop dreaming!" threads. This is all for fun.

I would go animated (japanese anime style would be very fun), change the timeline from the 90's to current day and for the most part remain faithful to the character and their stories, although the plot would have to be streamlined and tweaked in ways.

I would, believe it or not, try to make it live action. I just don't think it'd work as a cartoon. I mean, 2d morphing? Noooo waaay. People have done way more unrealistic things than this in live action.

The yeerks would be computer generated. The morphing would be computer generated, the andalites and other aliens, too. But the rest, definitly real. Has to be.
I used to be V, before that I was Tobiasfan21. Then I disappeared for several months after being kidnapped by the Twilight series. Don't make me talk about it, it was horrible. Now, I'm V2113.

I am currently a Heroes fan who enjoys writing more than anything in the world.

That's kind of the issue tho. With animation there is little limit to what you can showcase. You can show a tiger jump at a hork-bajir and slash his chest wide open, and have it look as close to what a real tiger would look like. How long would it take to train a real tiger to do that to a green suit dummy? You can have the tiger behave in humanistic ways  that no trained tiger can achieve with any amount of time. You can have birds doing crazy stunts that just won't look as good with real trained birds. In the end, you would end up having to use a lot of CGI with the animals.

I still think they should make an animated TV series (KA Applegate, herself, suggested this), and just make 4 movies from the Megamorphs series. The Chronicles (Hork-Bajir, Andalite, Ellimist) and Visser, could all be TV movies.

OH MY GEE!!!! This sounds good, TheEllimist!!!
Hey guys. Animorphs was actually confirmed as probably being a movie by Katherine Applegate herself. it was in the Classic forum's question and answer topic.

RAF: Do you think that Animorphs will ever make it to the big screen?
K&M: There is a reasonably serious move under way to do a big budget Animorphs movie. By that we mean that a producer has contacted us and let us know that he would be pitching the idea to the studios -- as soon as the WGA strike is over. The producers are serious guys. The studios they are going after are people who could actually pull it off. But right now it's still probably a 20 to 1 shot. Keep your fingers crossed. I'll say this: the producer is a serious Anifan.

ESPECIALLY the part about the producer being a serious Anifan! It's reason to get our hopes up, I reckon!!! Yiiiiiiiipeeeeeeeee eeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!

How long ago was this? And do you think it's gonna happen for real?!

LOL tht;s what got me started on RAF I looked up "Animorphs movie" on google and I got a link to the thread tht u got that KA quote from
Richard is really Anna in disguise!

How long has it been since that was put up, anyway? I know movies take a long time to get started on production....
