Older audiences sex, drugs, and animorphs
« on: December 26, 2008, 12:33:43 PM »
So if animorphs was for an older audience do you think other issues would have been tackled in the books? I mean would sex have factored into it? Would drugs? What do you all think

Sex, yes specially b/w Rachel and Tobias, and Marco, the token player
drugs not so much, though I could see Jake picking up drinking at the end
Something, something, oh crap I pissed everyone off again....

I agree that jake would probably take up drinking, marco might try a few things after becoming a ballin hollywood movie star lol

But during the actual series, they probably wouldnt, but maybe they could have touched on them dealing with the darker side of society, like the yeerks are using a special drug to enslave the addict community or they're using a brothel to infest all its customers, stuff like that would be interesting to see the animorphs have to deal with

The brothel thing is an interesting idea

I'd be interested in reading it, and if something like that happened, it would be late in the books when things are in a general down note but not so late that everythings gone wrong.  At least if you tried to put it in timeline.  Drugs and addictions can be pretty heavy stuff.  But don't let Cassie narrate, it would be too moralized and there'd be too much mental arguments over right and wrong.
I may be drunk, Miss, but in the morning I will be sober and you will still be ugly.

It is a good thing for an uneducated man to read books of quotations.

Fanservice?  What fanservice?  This is author service, I don't care if the fans like it or not.

Please, she's smoking pot in her barn when the others aren't around. She isn't selling it, but I know she's had to have tried it by the end of the series.

I don't know about adult themed, but Animorphs would have been interesting if the Animorphs had been a bit older. If they ever do a movie or a decent TV show, I think they should make the Animorphs all 16 at the start.

Drugs were mentioned a bit in Visser, remember? Visser One mentioned that she considered going after addicts, first, since they were easier to control. I think her host at the time she first came to Earth took heroin... Or maybe that was a fanfic...

Yeah, I think the heroin addict host is from a fanfic I read, and that they didn't specify Visser One's host's addiction.
