The animal effects in Golden Compass were quite good. Not photo-realistic maybe, but good enough to believe you're looking at a polar bear, or a demented Golden Monkey :D

I kinda don't want it to be animated :P I feel the tone wouldn't be right (Can you think of any serious cartoons...?)
If anime counts, then there are tons. If it doesn't... I know of this one really bloody animated batman trilogy. Online, it would bypass the animation age ghetto and cut costs by a decent amount of money. A web series would only make things better!
yeah

Hot actors or good actors? Which is more important? And if they're animated, they can still be hot.
[spoiler=*coughcough*]hentai[/spoiler]
Good script can be part of animation!
Good director can also be!

Why don't you want animation? I understand that it would be weird, but there would be no limitations!
yeah

The 1992 Batman animated series.  That is all.

That's something Katherine actually personally referenced back in the day, for how she'd want an adaptation done.

Both. There are plenty actors who cover both.
hentai
That's ****ing gross. Animorphs the porno sounds like something you would find on FurFiction

I mean as long as I get an adaptation, I'll be happy. I'd prefer Live-action, but if cartoon is the only thing we'll get, I'll be okay

I really, really hate all this "hot" stuff, too.  That's even one of the reasons I don't want a live-action adaptation, it'll undoubtedly be cast with whoever's ultra-popular among the tween demo at the time, and kill all of that "everyday kids" vibe.

It's ultimately a choice in preference. I'd prefer to see it in some re-try of live action mainly because I'd think that'd look cooler. Minority Opinion I guess. (I mean what would look cooler: a real bear charging on the big screen or a Cartoon Network Adventure Time style bear charging on a computer screen?)

If you think you can raise $100-150mil+ through crowd-funding of all things, go for it I guess.  Best of luck to you, oh optimist.
If someone did raise enough money to make an indie movie, would they need permission from Schoolastic/KA, if they just popped it online for free?

Nonono dpsb, I was joking about the hentai thing.
I'm not saying CN style! Death to the Animation Age Ghetto! Your point, though... I'll give you that one.
yeah

Hate to bump this thread for risk of giving the impression that there's news, which there's not, it's not happening, but over on a major movie-site forum someone posted this manip:







Pretty much illustrates a huge part of why this shouldn't happen.  You need names to sell it, and names by nature aren't what we need for this.  And all of those actors, are, you know, oh, in excess of a decade too old.  Obviously Lawrence wouldn't be caught dead doing something like this at this stage in her career, but this is what you'd get with a movie: 25 year old Animorphs set in the present day with smartphones and such, with CG animals and a soft-PG13 rating.  Hunger Games-lite.

Personally, I'd prefer nothing.

1. Lawrence as Rachel? Who came up with this?!
2. Tobias doesn't look like Tobias. At all.
2. LOOK AT THAT CUBE DO NOT WANT

To be honest, though, I wouldn't be too bothered if they tried to get a PG-13. Or perhaps it could go by unrated?
... or it could be online. Wink wink.
And I'd be ok with CG animals if they weren't the epitome of half-assedness. If they look OKAY, I'd be okay.
yeah
