Oh, don't mistake my remark. I'm not hating on Nuklear Age, more like Brian himself.

One of my favorite things to do was get other people to read the book, so I could laugh at the misfortune they now shared with me.

You are not a true fan and thus should be banned.

You are not a true marker and should be banned.

Dammit! I spent like 5 minuets trying to think of something to counter with but I got nothing.

EDIT: Marker? I barely know her. eh? eh?

I don't really get, how the topic "8 bit theater movie" got up here, but I just wanted to say one thing:
If there was a movie, it surely couldn't be the comic. It just couldn't.
But it could be great, using the structures given in the comic and slightly changing them. More in-depth for the characters and tieing some off the illogialities togheter to become logic. A Xanathos-gambit would also help.

I think, the material could make a great movie.

And I know, that taking material and making something completly different out of it, that still attracts the fans, DOES work.

I wrote a Pokemon-fanfiction. But the atmospheare is nothing like Pokemon, more like .hack or something. It's brutal, sad, dramatic, and depressing with some humorous moment.
Still, it's so popular, that I'm acctually FORCED to finish it.

That's how good it works.

I'd watch a G adaptation of the Dark Warriors or NC-17 adapatation of King Steve.

Call me a cynic, but would such a movie retain anything worth watching?
Put it another way: remove the weirder/more morbid bits from 8 bit theater and you've got 1000+ blank .png's. So I suppose that the movie would have to involve some other actual content.
Or as Brian already said: the only similarity would be "ill-equipped fantasy heroes."
However, why would it need to be aimed at kids to have a chance at being made? There have been D&D based movies, In the Name of the King, etc. Would there really be no interest at all in making an edgier RPGesque movie of fantasy anti-heroes?
This is the problem with the real world. Idiots have money, so to get things done, you have to convince them to give it to you, by compromising with idiocy.

Maybe not so much "retain" than "freshly introduce." I dunno either. At least it would be a change from animated animal movie #10369.

Slightly unrelatedly I just remembered a text by Ephraim Kishon that mocks children's books by way of depicting a chat between author and publisher, during which it transpires that all animals have already been anthropomorphisized, leaving the author with no choice but to write his next children's book about a friendly little sponge who goes on an adventure to the big city. That text is from the 60s or 70s. Nowadays it's movies and not books but it seems very little has really changed.

... except nowadays they already did the damn sponge, too.

Next up: Annie the Sea Anemone.

I liked Spongebob.
Until he jumped the shark. Almost litaraly
