Also, if this does happen and there aren't tons of fanart of Lyra watching the show, I will be disappoint.

There's probably fanart of it already.

As much as I typically dislike the excuse that it was all a dream, that'd be pretty funny.

Hey, that's how they launched Rugrats All Grown Up.

#337980 Drenius Sun, 10th Feb '13 4:57:55 PM from Northern Virginia

Which I never watched. Not that I ever watched Rugrats either, which isn't an impeachment of the show's quality, my family just didn't have cable until 2003.

neat!

That's actually the best comparison I can think of. The fandom still debates it's relative quality, but there were certainly some interesting ways the writers kept the Rugrats core personalities and adapting them into teenagers. And at the very least, it was pretty watchable so I'll give the movie the same chance.

And speaking of Tales, it didn't do so well because the Slice of Life genre was virtually unheard of in Western Animated shows at the time. It wasn't terribly easy for the audience to find appealing as many of them prefered the High Fantasy adventure serials of the original series.

Huh, only the low-res version of that rumored concept art supposedly for the Made-for-TV Movie got posted in this thread? Here's

◊ the high-res version (and here's

someone claiming to have been shown that image a couple months ago)

I wonder if there'll be any background humans modeled after background ponies.

#337990 Kyler Thatch Sun, 10th Feb '13 5:42:46 PM

Come to think of it, we actually don't know whether Rainbow Dad is a single parent or if Rainbow Mom just stayed home or had other errands at the time.

I have to admit, despite the premise, I do really like the human designs. Their hair perfectly incorporates both their man and tail styles.

I have two objections. Why is RD's skin blue (when the others' skin colors look reasonably human), and why'd they put AJ in a skirt?

#337994 Japanese Teeth Sun, 10th Feb '13 5:50:43 PM from Meinong's jungle

@Applelight: I think the designs are pretty good, but I think they overexaggerated the size of the heads compared to the body. I personally would have gone with something a bit less stylized. Like this.

Yeah, the different oddly colored skin also bugs me a little bit, assuming that the picture is indicative of the theoretical TV movie.

That's a fair point. I've never seen why the fandom is so hung up on ethnicity, but you're right it's better to avoid it altogether.

#337996 Japanese Teeth Sun, 10th Feb '13 5:55:13 PM from Meinong's jungle

@Drenius: I'm not a big fan of that either. However knowing how this fandom tends to react to giving the humanized characters any sort of ethnicity, it might be best to just avert that completely and go for straight fantasy coloration.

That would still be kind of weird if they are going for an otherwise mundane setting.

I think if that was their angle, they should have gone all-out Amazing Technicolor Population. You know, give AJ a vibrant orange, Twi a deep purple, etc.

@Mio: It worked for Doug.

We don't really know much about this picture; it's entirely possible that it's just concept art and the designs aren't finalized.

I'd kinda prefer it just being the ending because it would be funnier that way.
