Personally, I'd rather enjoy Wes Anderson's Teddy Ruxpin.

Priceless!

Can't wait for next year's crappy childhood stealing movies:

1) Pixar's "Hungy, Hungry Hippos"
2) Richard Linklater's "Jenga"
3) "Scrappy: the Scooby-Doo Chronicles"
4) Eddie Murphy is "Webster"
5) Graham Norton is "Mr. Belvedere"
6) Tim Burton's "The Muppets Meet The Munsters"
7) Frank Miller's "Calvin and Hobbes"
8) Stephen Speilberg's "Indiana Jones V" (oh, wait... dammit!)

I was just going to say that. Teddy Ruxpin by Wes Anderson looked like it would be epic.

That Smurfs one, though, is hardly an original joke, as it was already done an SNL sketch.

John Carpenter's ALF would be absolutely incredible. After all, if a carniverous alien landed in your garage, would you really want to let him near your children? I'm picturing a cross between the hillbillies in The Hills Have Eyes and the unknown horror of The Thing.

I can see it now: hearing muffled gargling noises, Willie shines a flashlight into the back corner of the garage, only to see Alf, blood cacked on his mouth, dead stare in his eyes, feasting on Lucky's twitching corpse. Alf looks up from his meal, locks eyes with you, snarls, and lunges at the camera, screaming.....

I'll cry when the girl power movies start emerging:

1) Jem - The Musical
2) Rainbow Brite, The Color Of Friendship
3) Strawberry Shortcake, Let's Jam!
4) Polly Pocket Goes Shopping
5) Kid Sister And Me (Wherever I Go, She Goes)
6) Peppermint Rose, Sweet 16
7) Barbie And Ken, A Love Story
8) Dancerella, Dancing Dreams
9) Saving Easy Bake Oven
10) Lady Lovely Locks Starts A Salon

and so on.. and so on...

lawl David Lynch's Koosh Ball.

Why won't Hollywood make these movies :(

Why won't Hollywood make these movies :(

Imagine if they bring back Captain Power (1987-1988), but with today's technology! Get J. Michael Strazynski write it (like he did the original), and i'll jizz in my pants and shoes!

@ Darren:
Let's transpose your #s 6 and 7: I'd gladly watch Tim Burton's Calvin and Hobbes.

love the list . liked the cabbage patch kids and teddy ruxpin the best given how hollywood has turned child hood playthings into their own horror films the vids fit the mold.

MKitn, you forgot Dazzler Does Dallas (worst X-Men character ever).

I would watch the hell out of those.
(Well, except the first one.)

If they got JMS to remake Captain Power, I too would jizz in FuryOfFirestorm's pants and shoes. Nobody seems to remember that show and it was AWESOME!

I wanna see that Cabbage Patch Kids movie. And, heck, Carebears vs. My Little Pony would be AWESOME.

What, no My Pet Monster?

I think David Lynch's 'Koosh Ball' has the most potential of all those films. It could star Jude Law, Laura Dern, and, lets say, Kareem Abdul Jabbar. That would work.

JPyke: It's still reasonably fondly remembered in Canada, because YTV aired re-runs for a while and it was in much better time slots, especially in Toronto (4:00 Saturdays - I remember because my weekly hockey game at the time finished up too late to catch it, so I had to learn to program the VCR to watch it).

@Darren
5) Graham Norton is "Mr. Belvedere"
*snerk*

@Mr Benjamin Grimm--Burton's Calvin and Hobbes would be great. Actually, I'd just about watch any Calvin and Hobbes. I would read those instead of the assigned readers in first and second grade. :)

A Teddy Ruxpin movie would be the scariest film since... ever.

If they were to do a Care Bears vs. anyone movie, I'd rather it would be more like this, despite my yearning to see My Little Ponies mauled to death by bears.

Excellent. I think the only one cartoon from my childhood I would be excited to see in Live Action would be Voltron. That could actually be really fun and cool if it were done right ... of course it probably wouldn't be or won't be I don't know is it happening already? I kind of hope not.

I agree, a Tim Burton "Calvin and Hobbes" would be great!

MKtn mentioned "Gem: The Musical". How about we make it a reality show like "American Idol"? It could be called "America's Gem"!

I would so see David Lynch's Koosh Ball.

I'd say you have your next contest!

I would gladly shell out money to see any of these, especially The Cabbage Patch Kids and Alf. As for Teddy Ruxpin...never, just never. Those things still creep me out.

I seen in the toy store:

Care Bears

My Little Pony

Pound Puppies

Smurfs

I got my Teddy Ruxpin made by Back Pack Toys.
