A Redwall movie sounds exciting, but it would be like The Last Airbender. The movie would be great, for people who don't know Redwall. Big Redwall fans would hate it 'cos they'd get too much wrong.
I won't be on this forum much anymore, but I'll pop in to say hi every now and then.

Unfortunately, you're probably right. :'(

Book fans are often more than not, disappointed with the movie adaptations of their favorite books, no matter what is done with them.  Some adaptations are better than others.

The best movie adaptation of a book I ever saw was Lord of the Rings

I just watched Legend of the Guardians. That movie was awesome!! If they were to do something like that with Redwall, THAT would be sweet.

Please try not to double post, just edit your original post.

And discussing one's age is completely off topic to this thread, it is about movie adaptions of Redwall, so please stick to that.
Start building something beautiful and just put the hate away

I think I said it some pages back, I liked how Animal Logic designed the LOTG universe, but they sloppily adapted it from the books.  I think if something similar happened to Redwall from the company we'd be up in arms over the changes.

Whenever a book is adapted to film the original fans cry about it. In the end, seeing a movie - or even just another season of the TV series - would do the series more good than harm, I think.

Of course, it must have a lot of hare parts. Yes. No Redwall movie would be complete without a lot of hares. *nod*
Redwall is always open, its tables laden, to you and any of good heart.

I've seen it, and it was okay, but it was too off the books storyline for me to fully enjoy it. I agree, though, that a Redwall movie should have the same kind of CGI effects and animation.
Received mostly negative reviews.

In the TV show, they made the animals look like people, but I think they should be more animal-y.
I might be horribly disappointed by a Redwall movie, but I'd still watch it.  :D

Talking animals are generally shown as anthropomorphic in popular culture, so its audience can identify in an easier fashion towards them.
