So, brehs, I was around the house last night and stumbled across my Mighty Max collection and it made me think, "Why hasn't a live action version of this happened yet?"
Marvel was successful with "Guardians of the Galaxy", where two of the main characters were a talking racc00n and a tree creature. Why couldn't a movie work with a portal-travelling, wise-cracking kid, a talking chicken (fowl, actually), and a bad-ass with a sword that's afraid of spiders work?
It's got the nostalgia element, the big toy franchise from back in the day to reboot, the action/comedy element, a chance to make a young star, magic, science, a dark relentless villain that's about that life...
They could even do a deal with New Era to design a Mighty Max snapback...
Make it PG-13, get Roman Reigns from the WWE to play Norman for the low, and splurge on the CGI and special effects. You've got yourself a franchise. :lupepopcorn:
