Well it is quite refreshing to see a female character in a cartoon who isn't vapid, boy crazy or a total shop-a-holic... But getting back on topic, I too personally think that a live action version of Foster's is not a good idea, because you really cannot replicate the unique look of the show in a real life setting in a convincing fashion. Besides I have a feeling that if such a movie should be made, Craig and Lauren would most likely have nothing to do with it and things would be left in how should I put this.... "Less then capable hands."

"Less then capable hands." It wouldn't be the first time that's happened. Except for the first Scooby-Doo movie, I have yet to see a cartoon do live-action on the big screen without losing a lot in the process.

Even cartoons doing cartoons on the big screen don't always get it right. A 22-minute-long show is hard to translate into an hour and a half in
WIIIIIIIIIIIDE SCREEEEEEEEEN

I've always wonderred what a human Wilt would look like, I might draw it soon. There are actually a LOT of pics on Deviantart depicting the artists' ideas of what Wilt would look like as a human, mostly showing him as White teenage boy with long "bishy" hair, for some odd reason. I personally think Wilt looks fine NOT being human, but that's me. BUT, if I was gonna cast a human actor to play Wilt, I'd cast that guy who plays "Darnell"(aka "Crab Man")on "My Name is Earl", though I guess they would have to digitally increase his height, as well as remove and arm and an eye. He's got that big grin already down-packed, though, as well as the lean, sinewy build, and the pleasant disposition(after all, he also plays "Rubber Band Man" in the Office Depot commercials). I can SO picture Wilt saying, "HEY, Earl!" pitbulllady

I refuse to watch any of the Pokemon movies, so I can't comment on those.

Ah Yes, Beavis and Butt-Head: Do America, one of the greatest cinematic achievements of the modern age.
(I hope they'll be coming out with a 10 year anniversary special edition DVD before years end.)

Never mind an Anniversary disk; I want a sequel. "Beavis and Butt-Head do Western Europe", or something equally insane.

Well, you could do it sort of like the spongebob movie did, with spongebob and patrick being animated the entire time...
It's really the same problem as you'd have making, for instance, a Starcraft movie (just bear with me). Starcraft is a computer game. Thus the units have voices. The units' voices were well done, however there is only one of the voice actors that actually looks like the unit's portrait- so, even if you picked a great actor who looked exactly like the portrait... they don't have the voice.
