PuffNStuff Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 BUT It shouldn't be made by the ppl who make pokemon... It should be made by the people who made Ghost in the Shell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
absoludicrous91 Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 It should be made by neither of those studios. It should be made by ME! (Better Production IG than 4Kids, though) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Four-eyed Vulpine Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 Definitely, and I say it must be computer-animated. As far as the studio, no idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARWINGCOMMANDER 3987 Posted November 16, 2007 Author Share Posted November 16, 2007 Yeah Four-eyed Vulpine. It should definitely be a CGI animated series. That's how most Star Fox games are animated. As for the studio, I think it should be done by DiC Entertainment, or 4Kids. Don't get too mad at me for saying that. I'm only interested in the very ideas of 4Kids doing a Star Fox Saturday morning cartoon because they've got some very good voice actors, most of which you probably haven't heard of. If it was 4Kids, the voice cast would look something like this; Fox McCloud: Frank Frankson Falco Lombardi: David Wills Peppy Hare: Ted Lewis Slippy Toad: Andrew Rannels ROB 64: Scottie Ray Krystal: Veronica Taylor General Pepper: David Zen Mansley Beltino Toad: Sean Schemmel Katt Monroe: Bella Hudson Bill Grey: David Wills Lucy Hare: Bella Hudson Amanda: Lisa Ortiz Dash Bowman: Jason Anthony Griffith James McCloud: Frank Frankson Wolf O'Donnell: Dan Green Leon Powalski: Marc Thompson Pigma Dengar: Mike Pollock Andrew Oikonny: Ted Lewis Panther Caruso: Scottie Ray Andross: Mike Pollock General Scales: Greg Carey Aparoid Queen: Unknown Emperor Anglar: Maddie Blaustein If the show was done by another studio, this is how I think the cast layout would be; Fox McCloud: Kevin Michael Richardson Falco Lombardi: Steven J Blum Peppy Hare: Jeff Bennett Slippy Toad: Brian Drummond ROB 64: David Kaye Krystal: Gwendoline Yeo General Pepper: Richard Newman Beltino Toad: Frank Welker Katt Monroe: Wendee Lee Bill Grey: Paul St. Peter Lucy Hare: Jennifer Hale Amanda: Mindy Cohn Tricky: Corey Burton Dash Bowman: Corey Burton James McCloud: Steven J Blum Wolf O'Donnell: Brian Dobson Leon Powalski: Michael Dobson Pigma Dengar: Paul Dobson Andrew Oikonny: Rob Paulsen Panther Caruso: Jim Cummings Andross: David Kaye General Scales: Jim Cummings Aparoid Queen: Susan Blu Emperor Anglar: Frank Welker Reply again to tell me what you think of my casting choices for either company.

foxbird22 Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 No, it absolutely should not be an animated series. Nintendo does a horrible enough job of not keeping each game canon to one another. An animated series will only create more plotholes.

Mr. Krystal Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 As long as it's done in an anime style, because that almost always ensures quality. Even Pokemon was good quality for it's time. Remember that the show is over 10 years old now. They haven't really changed the formula since then, so it tends to look old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It possibly won't be made by Nintendo either like those stupid Mario shows. It would make no sense to us too, and the world wide audience would feel disgusted with Star Fox in general. Also, they probably won't have Andross die by the time it gets cancelled. That's how much optimism I give for the series. Also, it would make even less sense in English if it's released in Japan first. If it's American, then it'll make little sense in English and no sense everywhere else. Oh yeah, the original character names would probably be some stupid pun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Chiro-Chan Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 Only if it was done in something that didn't scream 'LOLZ ANEEMAY', and was well animated. SWAT Kats comes to mind. Oh, and I'd prefer it to be in 2D, maybe with a few 3D elements, but stick mostly to 2D. Mook Animation comes to mind as well, since they did the second season of SWAT Kats, and had insanely good animation. And none of this 'lolz bad story' crap we've been getting lately. I swear, they need a new writer or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ARWINGCOMMANDER 3987 Posted November 17, 2007 Author Share Posted November 17, 2007 How about I talk about certain changes to events from the games to make them a bit more fresh for television broadcast? Star Fox gradually takes on dangerous missions to stop Andross's various evil plots, as well as defeating Star Wolf on Fichina. After the 6th episode they fight an enemy fleet on Venom, Fox defeats Andross, and everyone thinks Andross is dead. A few days later it turns out Andross survived, and launches another attack against the Lylat System. This time Star Fox takes a different path through Lylat to get to Venom, with a 2-part season finale involving Star Fox protecting the Great Fox from the missile attack in Sector Z, breaking through Venom's space armada, defeating Star Wolf a second time, Fox going through a longer, harder battle with Andross and finally defeating him. Then it goes to the event between the 8 year gap between Star Fox 64 and Star Fox Adventures, where Star Fox defeats Andross and the traitorous Captain Shears. Afterwards we see the same events as we saw in Star Fox Adventures, but with a few small changes. We ignore most of the game's puzzles to fit the episode in, Fox actually fights Scales without Andross interrupting them, defeats Scales who admits that he was only Andross's pawn, and Scales gives Fox the last Krazoa Spirit. Fox releases the final spirit, frees Krystal, he asks her if she's alright, and this is the funny part I came up with. They can't control there newfound urges and try to kiss, but Andross interrupts them. Fox and Falco kill Andross for good, Krystal introduces herself to the team in person, Fox and Krystal lovingly smile at each other, and the Adventures story ends. Then the next set of events opens up with us actually seeing Oikonny take Andross's place, they fight Oikonny, who has them on the brink of defeat, but a mysterious new pilot shows up. The pilot turns out to be Krystal, she wants to join the team to be close to Fox, and Fox lets her join. Just before Peppy and ROB sacrifice the Great Fox, Peppy recounts the past events of the series in the form of a clip show. Then we have the final events of Star Fox: Assault's storyline. Then we start out with learning why Fox feared for Krystal's safety and kicked her off the team, and I don't know where the show would go after that. Do you guys think that's how it would go?

Syphe D. Mar Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 Why would the world be disgusted with Star Fox in general? Um... because the idea of having a Star Fox series would turn out as good as having the Mario shows? What I meant to say was that I am not in favour of a Star Fox anime.

absoludicrous91 Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 Two things; one, the Mario shows aren't as bad as people think. It all depends on which one we're talking about. And two, Arwing Commander, I have got to say that that is a great framework. I only wonder how many seasons it would use up. And the idea of a clip show doesn't thrill me. Other than that, great job. :ok: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Star Fox Runner Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 That is a well thought out plot line. My thoughts on the subject. I would like a Star Fox Animated Series, as long as it is CGI, and made by any other production company than 4Kids, because if it was, it would be POS, and make people hate the game. If you need proof of 4Kids being bad, just watch the Fox network on Saturday mornings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxbird22 Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 SWAT Kats comes to mind. If it's made anything like SWAT Kats, it's guaranteed awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARWINGCOMMANDER 3987 Posted November 18, 2007 Author Share Posted November 18, 2007 I know you guys hate 4Kids for what they did to Sonic, even though I like Sonic when it's more lighthearted, but I kinda agree with you on that. Although, the only thing 4Kids hasn't screwed up is Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. The 2003 adaption of the show is darker and grittier than the original series from 1987. There is an exception to that however, as the show's 6th season called "TMNT: Fast Forward", is more lighthearted and kid friendly. Oh to he@# with it! It's your opinion, not mine!

absoludicrous91 Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 Arwing Commander, I just looked up some VAs on your list and....KEVIN MICHAEL RICHARDSON AS FOX?????

The roles he's done don't seem to correlate with Fox at all. (No offense) Then how about TMNT voice artist Rob Paulsen? I bet he can do a voice for Fox that's grown up enough. I think that's the kind of voice he did for Throtle in Biker Mice From Mars (Remember that show? No? I don't remember it much either.). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Chiro-Chan Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 I've heard of Biker Mice from Mars a ton, but I've never actually seen it. It could be CG animated, but I've always been a fan of 2D cartoons, so... And if it is 3D, try not to make it look goofy. If done in 2D, first off it needs to be well animated, and secondly, none of this 'hay luk its aneemay' crap. I mean, anime is okay (save for the bad storylines and poor animation), but I think it's really overused for cartoons now. It'd be nice if it had a more mature storyline, but nothing like 'oh let's make it really violent and really sleazy'. Aside from a few of the silly parts aimed at little kids, 'Avatar' has a pretty mature story, and is fairly well written. Something like that for the story. You know, since Star Fox *does* mostly revolve around fighting wars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARWINGCOMMANDER 3987 Posted November 19, 2007 Author Share Posted November 19, 2007 I can make a list of mature things about Star Fox that kids don't understand right now; -The death of James McCloud -Wolf wants to kill Fox -All the casualties in the Lylat Wars and other crisis's in the Star Fox universe -Fox and Krystal's romantic tensions between each other -All the times Andross has died -Pigma's death -The casualties that happen in Sauria's Aparoid infestation That's about it. By the way, why don't we suggest things that could be on the show that make it appeal to wider audience besides people who play the games (Like us). It happened with Sonic the Hedgehog so it could happen to anybody. Please let me know what you think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aleks55 Posted November 26, 2007 Share Posted November 26, 2007 I like the idea of a Starfox tv show, I was working on a starfox animated series, but thats a different story, but still it would be a good idea to make a Starfox animated series.
