Looks like Disney will continue to release their full catalog in Live-Action-Remake , from Mulan to Snow White.

There probably a few Disney titles i could enjoy,
(Fantasia/Night on Bald Mountain, for one)

That one can be dark!
If they got Tim Burton to direct Dumbo(2019)... Then they need Ridley Scott or something here.

These titles are comming.. So all wishes come true (in Disneyland)
But the world outside of Disney are brimming with great animation movies who would do fantastic as live-action. What would you like to see?

There is especially one i would love;

Titan A.E.

I'v search around but theres nothing to be found about any kind of hint regarding a future live-action remake.
I get that it probably was the nail-in-the-coffin for Fox Animaton Studios so this dream may be hard to realize. But wow that was a great film and story.
 
The Little Mermaid, Aladdin (the stuff with Carpet would be really cool!), and Mulan. These are also in the works so I’m happy.
 
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. :p

I would love to see The Mysterious Cities of Gold made into a live-action show.

I was thinking a reverse for the Dirk Pitt series. It could be more faithful to the original book and characters. It would also be a whole lot cheaper to produce.

They still haven't had a decent Dirk.
 
Not a movie, but a live-action Johnny Quest could be fun. Or the Groovy Ghoulies?

Just Johnny Quest (in fact, I'm surprised that there hasn't been a live-action movie version yet.)

My list?

Space Ghost (here's a fake movie poster for it that somebody did):

The Last Unicorn

Grossology

Kim Possible

Gatchaman: The Science Ninja Commando Squadron
(was to have been an animated CGI movie recently, but the studio that was to do the CGI animation went out of business)

Live action properties I'd like to see animated:

Starship Troopers (there was a 1988 anime film of the novel, but I'd like to see a CGI remake of the 1997 film with the actual power suits)

Lolita (an animated version could actually show the sex between Lolita and Humbert this time, in particular a CGI animated version)

Times Square (an animated version of this movie would feature the full, uncut script complete with the missing scenes about the lesbian relationship-with sex-between the two characters in this movie; the movie could be a standard pen-and-ink cel animation movie made in Japan by a studio like Madhouse, or be a CGI animated film [a live-action remake's not possible because of the alteration of Times Square mentioned in the movie that actually happened in real life; an animated remake, however, can be set in the 1980's.])

I'm going with Pixar movies, Wall-e and Ratatouille would be fun.

The Lion King would be the worst one to remake.
 
I line with what Shaka Zulu suggested about "Space Ghost", I would get a nostalgic kick from a "Herculoids" movie. One prerequisite, the "score" must include the theme created for the cartoon, complete with the quasi Theremin, warbling tones!

WALL-E would be good for that, but ONLY WALL-E. The other two you mentioned would fail if they were live action (particularly Ratatouille, which would make us believe that a rat would be able to be a chef.)

Even better would be a live-action WALL-E with android robots (EVE would be a gynoid, of course), the concepts of which have been done in fan art pieces on deviantArt: ;)

The Lion King is set for July.19th, 2019. The cast includes Beyoncé, Seth Rogen, and James Earl Jones is returning as Mufasa.

I know and it's such a stupid idea. I also want to hit everyone who calls it a 'live action remake' when really it's just a CGI remake.

WALL-E would be good for that, but ONLY WALL-E. The other two you mentioned would fail if they were live action (particularly Ratatouille, which would make us believe that a rat would be able to be a chef.)

So a rat becoming a chef isn't believable enough for a live action movie, but a movie about a young woman being kidnapped by monster and falling in love with him is?

Also as said above The Lion King redo is coming out in 2019 and will make INSANE amounts of money.
