| "The Fairly Oddparents will celebrate their 10th anniversary September 4 with a live action movie. The live action Fairly Odd movie entitled A Fairly Odd Movie: Grow up Timmy Turner! was announced in July 2010 and will be released sometime in 2011. Drake Bell will play Timmy Turner, Curb Your Enthusiasm star Cheryl Hines and Seinfeld star Jason Alexander will be the title characters (Cosmo and Wanda), Daniella Monet from Victorious will play Tootie, and the villian who is a oil tycoon who wants Cosmo and Wanda's powers (Hugh J. Magnate) will be played by Steven Weber. The plot is Timmy Turner is grown-up, but still is in school and acts like a kid in order to keep his fairies. But when he sees Tootie as an beautiful woman, he has to choose between her and his fairies. Vicky is also in the film." |

1 – [TRDRS]PokeTraderThey should just keep cartoons as cartoons. Everything is Real People with them now. They have iCarly and Big Time Rush and that True Jackson VP show
inb4 live action Spongebob.

What next? A LIVE ACTION JIMMY NEUTRON?! You know what, *eff* Hollywood for this. Nickeledeon has now offically killed my childhood dreams. Why Nickelodeon, why?

Wait...
WHAT!? Anyways, back on topic... No, Nickelodeon. Just no. This is going to be like that live-action Aqua Teen fiasco. GOOD CARTOONS DO NOT WORK WELL IN LIVE-ACTION. But then again, these ARE the idiots who cancelled Invader Zim, the Amanda Show, and countless others, so... I'm not surprised that they'd screw up one of their highest-rated shows just for ratings from kids just out of their diapers. These guys just seem to target below usual cartoon demographics, and if the ratings are high OUTSIDE the demographic, yet terrible INSIDE, they scrap it. This is NOT what ANYBODY wants. I'm sure Butch Hartman (whose views on Adam West do not differ from adult cartoon director Seth McFarlane's, making the show more mature than it should be, might I add) is being forced to complete this project by Nick execs and is regretting hiring the writer who came up with such a terrible script. In conclusion, (tl;dr version) this is the worst idea Nickelodeon has ever come up with. And I'm not bringing up any of their OTHER fiascos. PROS: Nothing. CONS: Everything. Why? Just why!? |
1 – Masterge77I'm with emperorempoleon. The entertainment center has been hypnotized by flashy pop stars and terrible music. Everything's gone downhill, even Cartoon Network, who hasn't even shown any signs of Bieber Intoxication.

I mean look at Avatar: The Last Airbender it's just... bad.

I feel the same way and when hollywood sees a good cartoon they just have to turn it into a movie but Scooby Doo and The Flintstones were the best based on cartoon movies.
|
I'm actually kind of interested in this, I grew up with the show, and I really want to know just what the heck is going to happen in the movie.
The only question is: WHY A LIVE ACTION MOVIE!? I understood why they made one of Scooby Doo, as well as Avatar, but THIS!? Seriously, what were you thinking?
That CGI... is like the most uncanny thing I've ever seen. It looks pretty lame overall.
1 – GalliumGrantThe CGI looks like the same crappy one in the Jimmy Neutron and Fairly Odd Parents crossover made years ago.
You'd think they'd at least improve it.
4 – PokeRemixStudio, LucarioMario, [TRDRS]PokeTrader, GalliumGrantI'm somewhat fine with the concept, though it feels kind of awkward since Timmy's trying to act like a 10 year old at 21 or something.
But, the trailer, just, seriously, who thought it'd be a good idea to turn a cartoon like this into a live action movie?
1 – GalliumGrantYeah, funny story. I was sitting here at my computer doin' my own thing while my brother was watching TV behind me. Then, the trailer for it came up. It was the first time either of us had seen it. Of course, I continued doing my own thing on my computer. When the commercial was over, my brother turned to me and said, "Did you--"
I promptly interrupted and said, "We will pretend that never happened."
And he said, "Right. Good."
In all seriousness, you know a show has reached the end of its lifetime when a live-action movie is made of it. Actually, at that point, the show is on a heart and lung machine and someone is being paid obscene amounts of money to perform constant CPR on it while scientists are working in a secret underground lab trying to create a method of reanimating the dead.

^That image sums up my reaction upon hearing of this movie for the first time.
There actually was once a time I was alright with the show. I mean, there were some good jokes here and there, and it had a good run. I actually gave up when I started barely watching TV, but made it official when Poof came in. Things were getting stale for me, personally.
And then here comes a live action movie... That trailer has such terrible CGI and... he's 23 and JUST getting attracted to females? Er... I guess he wished he'd go through puberty when everyone else is done.
...Also, how'd Tootie go from an annoying little kid with glasses and ADHD to a generic teenage "hot stuff wannabe" lady?
I watched about 5 minutes of it before I just changed the channel. It was just so... horrible, in my opinion 
Makes sense, though.. I've pretty much grown out of Fairly Odd Parents, since I used to love watching it a few years ago, but now I just watch TBS or Comedy Central or something
