And I cannot see them picturing Bragoon and Saro's deaths very well. In fact, they might even remove that part, basically saying they went on travelling.

Oh, I dunno. The old cartoon still may've toned down the violence & brutality of the books--which is one of the things I like about it--but it still played for keeps. Good guys died then, and they could still die again. Especially since Bragoon & Saro had one of the best death scenes in the series!

All of them.

I'll be honest - I don't like and never did like the animated tv series. Just does not picture things in the right way compared to my mind. Too cheesy and annoying.

If a film is ever made, I would only accept it if was animated to the quality level of Avatar, for example, but rendering all that fur would be a complete nightmare I imagine...
My ears, how are you, wot!

While they are children stories, I would love to see one that actually shows a bit more violence. (A little blood, c'mon.)

I quite like the way Nelvana censored violence, but I don't think a little blood would hurt anyone. Not, like, massive spurts of blood whenever someone's stabbed, or gorily animated kill scenes, but bloodstains and bloody weapons would make sense. Still, I think that could become aversive (To me, at least.) if it was taken just a little too far.

Um....... Which Avatar?  ::)
The sci-fi one with blue cat people and strangely named, gravity-defying rocks. ;)

The other option would be old style animation - like that of Wind in the Willows.

You seen the Rats of Nimn (or however it's spelled)? The amount of violence they showed in there would be appropriate I think.

       Wait, as in "Miss Frisby and the Rats of NIMH?" Did they make a movie out of that!  :o

       I'd really like to see what they could do with it given the quality of animation these days myself.

Yeah, but. . . well. . . the whole story has been butchered. Also, it has close to the same type of animation as The Rescuers movies.

Yes, I have. Yeah, that'd make sense.

And yeah, they made a movie out of it. But if you're watching it, don't even think of it as the same storyline, because it's not. It's pretty good and I enjoyed it, but it's most definitely not the book.

The Skarzs

Yeah. . . still not sure about the whole thing they did with all the magic. :P

That was just weird. I first watched that movie when I was like five, and I had nightmares about it for years...

Courage: Not only the willingness to die manfully, but also the determination to live decently.

BJ once said that his Goodies died as well as his baddies - That's what makes it so appealing. OR something along those lines. And, Skarzs, I'm guessing you're a meat=eater and lover? Ick. I don't really like meat, especially chicken.

The Skarzs

Wait. . . wut? You came to that conclusion how exactly?
