Sony to make Manimal movie

Yes, that Manimal.

Sony Pictures Animation has picked up the movie rights to Manimal, a short-lived 1983 NBC series, and is developing the project as a live action/CG hybrid film.

I'm honestly not sure what to think about this. Does this even have the potential to be a decent movie?

It might be a good movie at least the visual effects will up to date. Personally I didn't think it was all bad but then I haven't seen the show since it's original aring.

A Manimal movie...... .

It would be faster to just pile all the money in one place and set it on fire. The end result would still be the same. :vulcan:

How far below the barrel did they have to look to dig up this, sure I remember the show but we aren't talking making a movie about a succesful show.
