I would like DC to make a revamped version of the Justice League, but this time as a prequel to Young Justice using the adult justice league characters. (Batman, superman, wonder woman etc).

Marvel wise, an animated young avengers show with Spiderman and some others would be cool.

From original: Some political mercenery futuristic some deep shit with bullets. Or a good nerd and society caricature that does not go "haha nerds don't fuck".

From already existing Warframe, Katana Zero or Iconoclasts.

Can we get a Vorkosigan series show? It would be cool

A movie or show based off of Cyberpunk 2020 and Cyberpunk RED.

My dream IP? Something based on Brubaker and Rucka’s Gotham Central. A gritty police thriller set on the streets of Batman’s home town. No super powers no special gadgets just ordinary cops dealing with the crazies. It was an amazing comic book series and I’d love to see it as a TV production. Live action or animated.

Arthas. There's way too much story for a movie (they had this problem with the Warcraft movie already). It could have a five season run easily, and lead to so many spinoffs.

Netflix needs to sell the Inside Job IP to someone willing to continue making it

Stormlight Archives, in a similar style as Netflix Castlevania.

I don't think they could ever pull it off as live action because of spren everywhere, the sheer scale (we're taking lord of the rings scale battles on the regular), and of course the literal fucking grass being alien almost everywhere (which is kind of relevant to the plot)

But animation has no issues with that.

Wish they would’ve done Wheel of Time as an animated series, stylistically more like Avatar The Last Airbender than say, Danny Phantom.

Wheel of time TV show may be terrible. But remember there was a pretty cool wheel of time first person shooter made a while ago

The Many Adventures of Richard Stallman

More Batman Beyond... And just DC in general. I have always found DC makes better animated series than Marvel.

I wish there was more Arcane. Its the most amazing animated show I have ever seen and honestly the money spent in production for music, animation, writing and everything was insane. It definitely showed.

I like marvel and dc but yeah dc animated is usually better

[–] Peasley@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

I think the "Quenta Silmarillion" from the Silmarillion would work well as an animated series.

I want to see Fëanor get stomped on by Gothmog under the starlight

[–] WanderWisley@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

Anew season of the boondocks. While I know that both John Witherspoon and Charlie Murphy have sadly passed away. With the current state of the country we definitely need new episodes.

I'll resist the urge to list off more of my favorite existing cartoons, as much as I'd like, say, Avatar sideshows.

Fantasy and sci fi is so good for animation in general. I'd love, say:

  • A Baldurs Gate D&D party series in the style of DOTA: Dragon's Blood or Dungeon Meshi
  • Mass Effect, maybe as stylized 3D, but with its signature bloom-heavy artstyle.
  • Subnautica? Something about weird exploration on an uncharted world, like Scavengers Reign.
  • Shadowrun. With dark cyberpunk style. Oh that would be sick.
  • A Star Trekish-series but Sunless Skies-style steampunk. Or really just more Star Trek animation, that would be good too.

Many video games in general feel like they're begging to have spinoffs set in their constructed worlds (and an existing target audience to justify the animation budget). I can't think of as many examples I'd like based off, say, live action TV series and movies. And I feel like animation loses much its 'draw anything you can imagine' advantage in more 'mundane' IRL settings, as popular as that may be for anime.

More Young Justice. They ended season 4 on a damn cliffhanger and tease. I just want more of that awesome show.
