I'm just happy I wasn't the only one that thought that!

Me too!!!

I understand why it's being phrased that way, but it still makes it sound like DL porn.

Must ... not ... joke ... about ... dialogue ...

DragonLance

"animated"

 

[hbarsquared]

I wonder what is meant by the term "animated."

Does this imply cartoon/comic style? I'm not sure, since every "animated" film out recently is actually CG. So does this mean we will see a CG Dragonlance? And if so, will it be with cartoony characters, or closer to Final Fantasy style animation?

Oh, and I can't wait.

What's with this hatred for animated? You do realize that the cost difference between an animated movie and a live-action one with the same quality is so staggering that no one in their right mind would ever make a live-action D&D movie, right?

I mean, a *good* live-action D&D movie; with a good storyline and special effects.

Animation was the only way to go with this project. I don't care if it looks like Macross or Akira or f****** Looney Toons; so long as it has a serious tone to it and it follows the story of the books as close as possible.

I hope it looks a bit like Titan A.E., the last for-grown-ups animation I saw.

I hope it looks a bit like Titan A.E., the last for-grown-ups animation I saw.

I hope it looks like Cowboy Bebop.

*imagines Dragonlance with a jazz, blues, and funk soundtrack; goes back to work on own D&D cartoon idea*

We can hope

I hope it looks a bit like Titan A.E., the last for-grown-ups animation I saw.

I didn't care for that style as much, was a little too overanimated at times it seemed. But they could do worse.

This does sound interesting, particularly if they get a good cast.

Oh the good news! Sweet!
