Stable Diffusion can bring some of this to life. Eerie and wonderful technology but you can't beat the real deal and I think you have an amazing idea here.
I'd call you out for posting this late, but I'm watching it this late You definitely pose an interesting question. Jumping the gap between live action to animation would definitely work in my opinion, although I will say you perhaps underestimate the work it would take to make these things truly excel (most notable when you talked about Harry Potter). There's a lot of room for talent and transformative interpretation to flourish with the concept but I wouldn't imply that it could be an especially easy thing. Another end to that is the marketing and budget, where if you package the same movie with quite literally the same audio as you hypothetically propose it'd be a lot of money for what could potentially be very little return. I'm willing to bet that comic book-ish spiderman flick could get away with its visual flare for its wide and promising marketability that a Hellboy reboot probably wouldn't be able to compare to. That being said, it could definitely bring life to plenty of old movies in a much better way than remaking them without an ounce of their historical significance. The metaphor about pie makes plenty of sense, by the way.
Yeah! I mostly bring up the "same audio" idea because the star wars RUclips channel is full of short animations like the ones I showed and some others like the "forces of destiny" series. And I get that these are probably consumables for kids and stuff. But collectively the runtime of these short animations is probably comparable to a feature film. So I feel like if we're twiddling away making these tiny shorts. It would require a similar amount of resources to reskin the prequels. I lumped harry potter in there because they're so massive that I do think they have that "spider verse" appeal. Where people would show up and buy a ticket regardless. I also think with star wars and Harry Potter the performances are just too iconic to replace. So I'd rather just enjoy the eye candy of the animation. Yes making an animated film is a TON of work. But you eliminate huge parts of the production process if you choose not to recast, re-record or rewrite anything.
I like the idea of remaking films through animation with the original audio. Also you know they did remake Back To The Future animated. It’s called Rick and Morty.
Really interesting man I do think it would be a bit costly tho right?Also you made me remember El Dorado so imma rewatch it now. See you on the Stream man
Hmm, well this sure is an interesting opinion piece. The animation remakes, *could* work if they choose the right style. Using the old audio with some new polish would be unique but could be seen as lazy for not redoing them. But hey, changing the visual style is a hard job so you'd have to appreciate that.
Definitely. Animation is hard, but it's not any harder than making a photorealistic beast or lumiere or genie from Aladdin for the full run of a 2 hour movie. There's a visual effects crisis happening right now because the demand for photorealism is literally straining the industry. And it's creating interesting innovations, but I think we would be wise to spread our ideas to more "types" of art and artists.
It is oddly late for you posting a video rivet, anyhow I think if you are trying reboot something, I think you should go the Bethesda elder scrolls route where you tweak one thing and rerelease it. I think that would be very funny. Also le go. Animated movies while often very memorable can get dull so fast because we have seen so many (if you are me) I say, only remake spoof movies and make them even spoofier

Thanks! I used mid journey to create the pictures in the video. I definitely think AI will find it's ethical uses for content creation.

You've just awakened my imagination with this thinking
The opportunities are endless

Yeah definitely! Thanks for watching Card!
15 year minimum wait for remakes unless the movie is terrible then it's only a five year wait.
Back To The Future, but it's a porno.
Probably impossible because of residuals/trademark rights/whatever the fuck, cool idea tho
