What are your thoughts on a new Redwall Movie?

Asmodeus gave me nightmares when I was...eight. I see your point. I agree that THAT would be really neat. So long as they don't take the Watership Down approach. That was a really good story, but they went a little overboard with the blood and gore.

@Lutra, what about Village Roadshow? My brother says that they made the LotR trilogy really well and accurate to the book. That is, if they would want to make one...

But I agree with your Dreamworks and Disney view.

Is there anyone making a movie, or is this all hypothetical?

DanielofRedwall · July 30, 2011, 03:34:38 AM

No, it's just hypothetical. although, there is a rumor...

Look at these links:
http://www.redwallmovie.com/
http://redwall.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:LordTBT/News:A_new_Redwall_movie_project_in_the_works%3F

I personally doubt it's real, I mean, look at the past attempts to bring Redwall in to the movie cinemas..

As far as I know, no, no one is planning on making a Redwall movie.

There's possibly the Miller Brothers planning one. Note the word planning , that's literally it.

Skalrag of Marshank · July 30, 2011, 03:39:59 AM

Yeah, I'm not up to date on my plans and stuff. I know it exists when it comes out on DVD.

Isn't Village Roadshow just a distributor? (similar to how Amblin is Steven Speilberg's company that mainly distributes his films, but isn't a production company much anymore)

Skalrag of Marshank · July 31, 2011, 12:40:28 AM

I think so. I wouldn't trust Disney with it, either. They would probably screw it up, too.

Personally, I would LOVE a Redwall movie. But you can bet that they will do 'Redwall' first, or what they might do is take Mossflower or the Legend of Luke, and call it 'Redwall'

I agree. Pixar would be fine as long as they use a different animation.

Matthias720 · July 31, 2011, 04:42:49 PM

Having Pixar do it would be cool. It would also bring a lot of attention to Redwall as a whole, as well as the forum. ^_^

Skalrag of Marshank · July 31, 2011, 07:13:57 PM

Yeah. Pixar I would trust to do something like Redwall.

Pixar likes making their own stories. I can't see them adapting a book. You have a better shot with Disney Feature Animation taking the reigns within the Mouse House.

That's true
