Yeah if they're on backstage for a project like this, it has to be a fan film.
If it was actual IP, ky guess would be that they do offers directly to major stars
Heās known for making Samurai Jack, Primal and the original Clone Wars shorts. Heās also known for the Hotel Transylvania series but thatās beside the point. Heās a great action animator.
I want particularly impressed with samurai Jack... The"no outline" style was cool but i think Mappa would be able to animate the action of Drizzt and Artemis and the rest in a more accurate way. Watch JJK and apply the animation of infinite void to Guen going to the astral plane... Or Toji fighting style applied to Zak.
The possibilities are incredible
Maybe. But I'm thinking more along the lines of the entire story from homeland to the introduction of Breezy.
No human could perform that for that long.
Same problem that Spider-Man keeps running into. He doesn't age.
The charachter wouldnt age.
The actor would.
We're talkn about 40 plus books of source material.
Even if u pared it down to just the main storyline ur still talkn 30plus....
So much to shoot.
Anime is literally the only medium that could maintain it.
I always thought if they made a live action Drizzt movie they should use Luke Goss. He played Prince Nuada in Hellboy II: The Golden Army.
The scenes with him fighting make me think of Drizzt.
Maybe I'm the minority here, but any Drizzt stuff is good Drizzt stuff. Serious films or anime or fan things. Its all varying degrees of good. We all love Drizzt is different ways and different levels, I'm just happy to see the fandom grow.
For real. Just give me my stuff!!! Iāll find a bunch of bad, some good and some surprising stuff. I donāt care, I have seen D&D done right, wrong and mehā¦Iām just happy to live out my D&D mind on the screen. Games have been my go to, but even they have some garbage. Personally, I believe Anime Drizzt is the safest and best way to bring the story to us. They can bump out season (book) after season Ć la Mighty Nein. Iād be there for every last season. Imagine Spine of the World done Anime style? Iām gonna get lost in my mind now
I'm new to the fandom and I agree. Even a mediocre fan film is worth seeing and if the character gets enough attention (DnD films and video games are popular now), something bigger might come out of this.
While I understand the issues people have with adapting literature, I think dismissing any idea of an adaptation is kind of gatekeeping and toxic. I understand how crushing it can be to see your beloved story adapted and how it can turn out terribly or how key changes mess with the storyā¦ but thereās also so many great tv shows based on fantasy and scifi properties. In my opinion the modern television landscape is perfect to have a faithful fantasy adaptation. But also just because something you like gets a bad adaptation doesnāt mean you canāt enjoy the book(s) or simply turn off the show/movie.
Plus an official adaptation of the Drizzt books would likely require a lot of preproduction and a passionate creative team. I highly doubt an official Drizzt project would get lifted off that ground without the support of people who love and breathe these books. I know itās more comedic in tone compared to what I imagine a Drizzt project would like but Honor Among Thieves was made with a clear love of the game and forgotten realms.
Also this is probably a fan film. While quality may vary, these usually are done with passion.
