Hey stop making everything live-action. Animation is better

agreed but if harmon writes it (along with heather anne campbell) it could be really funny

Okay sure, is the community movie done then?

[–] GinAndJuche@hexbear.net 11 points 1 year ago

Glover started another side project, probably at least a year of delay alone from that

Last time Justin Lin and Dan Harmon teamed up it was on the damn near perfect original paintball episode of Community. Cautiously optimistic here.

yoooo WE LIT

There's no way this works, OPM is so over the top and ridiculous that the action just cannot translate to live-action.

[–] zed_proclaimer@hexbear.net 23 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

it also is specifically a parody and homage to shonen anime and its tropes. All of the visual gags involve absurdly overpowered monsters and creatures getting easily obliterated by a funny bald guy. How can you do this live action for an english speaking audience? Doesn't make any sense

[–] barrbaric@hexbear.net 9 points 1 year ago

I think the english-speaking audience is definitely a smaller concern, anecdotally a lot of people I know who generally don't watch anime have seen it and loved it. But yeah, good luck having a live-action Boros fight.

One Piece was actually excellent. If you did it the same way then it could work.

I have absolutely zero faith that they will pull it off though, especially with these people.
