masterchirox580 Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 I got a great idea for who should portray the characters, how about we get Nicki Minaj as Gali, the members of one direction as Tahu, Kopaka, Lewa, Onua and Pohatu, and how about Justin Bieber as Makuta. And as for writers, I recommend the writers of "foodfight!" and Oogieloves, it's the only way a good bionicle TV show could ever be created .I'm just going to pretend none of that was sarcastic. Who wouldn't love foodoogicle. Quote It's time to move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toa of Gallifrey Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 No, we need the writers of Dog With a Blog That hurt to type. In all seriousness, I'd like a Bionicle TV show. Yes, it can be a total disaster, but it can also be really good like shows such as Ninjago, The Legend of Korra, Gravity Falls, Phineas and Ferb and Wander Over Yonder. I'd like it not to have too many episodes per season, though, to avoid a large amount of fillers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheSkeletonMan939 Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 No, we need the writers of Dog With a BlogI have no idea what that is. It's a Disney Channel show about a talking dog. This dog also has a blog. As you can imagine, if Walt Disney were alive and saw this show on his company's TV channel, he'd just die all over again. If the geniuses behind the Ninjago show had some sort of involvement with such a TV show, I wouldn't mind seeing BIONICLE on TV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jakest123 Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 (edited) I'd love to see one, but I'd rather it looked like this than this. The style they're going for in the web animations doesn't really appeal to me because it doesn't really reflect the beautiful environments they've presented in the CG art. If I could see that in action it'd be brilliant, even if there were as few episodes as Hero Factory had per year.

Well if it's a Disney channel production then it's pretty safe to assume it sucks. I personally don't really like the ninjago show that much and would prefer a different writing staff or that the ninjago staff take a different approach to a bionicle show.

TheSkeletonMan939 Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 The first few episodes of Ninjago aren't very exciting, but I season three I was very impressed by the dialogue and character development. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I could see that in action it'd be brilliant, even if there were as few episodes as Hero Factory had per year. Just to be clear, have you actually seen the backgrounds and environments they're using for the web animatiosn? Because they're certainly not lacking in detail. It's stylized, but still extremely rich and elegant. Examples:Fire villageFire regionJungle region (this picture in particular strikes me as particularly beautiful)Various environmentsEven more environmentsEven these aren't the limit of the kinds of environments that can be captured while still keeping with this style. All things considered, the backgrounds are only slightly more stylized than the ones from the Mata Nui Online Game, which themselves were often every bit as breathtaking and cinematic as the backgrounds from the BIONICLE movies. And this is just what's being done for the webisodes! With a TV budget and production schedule, the beauty of the environments could probably be improved even further — there's no reason to assume that improving the current background designs would require abandoning the visual language entirely.

Torchbearer Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 The show has continued into 2014, Season 3 is titled "Rebooted", comprised of 8 episodes, 3 bad episodes, an episode that's rather mediocre *BEFORE* its grand 8 minute long ending sequence (and believe me, as terrible and rushed and plot-hole-ish as the episode is, the ending is worth it). A major character came back from the dead, we saw ninjas in space, the writers got their own cameo and nearly insulted themselves with it, Kai became a reckless airhead (literally in one way) again, etc etc. Oh, and the serpentine got their glorious comeback with a massive retcon that was a slap in the face to anyone that actually liked the original plot. I kid you not, there were BETTER ways of doing what they did without decimating Season 1/2 (1 if you're in the US, 2 if you live elsewhere)'s overall plot. Oh, and Wrong Place Wrong Time was finally cleared up in the plot. Yet still no explanation for Skales remembering it. Overall, Rebooted was great. It had massive plot holes and stupid retcons, the animation in the finale was rushed (good grief, WHY did the Overlord's tripod mech start BOUNCING instead of walking when it's first seen!? And WHY was Zane constantly changing poses in the fight sequence!?), it had a mediocre episode set in space that didn't really do anything for the plot at all and was a disgrace to the "villain wins" scenario especially after the brilliant and dramatic Episode 25 (although that one had some serious animation flaws).

The Meta Knight Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 I couldn't see a Bionicle show ever happening, And that's not just because the devs already said there are no plans for one. I just couldn't see it happening. Not to say I don't want Bionicle show. In fact, if they could make it good, like on the lines of successful shows that have already been mentioned here, I would LOVE for Bionicle to have a TV series. But I just can't see it happening at this point. 1 Quote Stay vigilant, my friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torchbearer Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 There were no plans for a NINJAGO TV show either, look how that turned out. If BIONICLE 2.0 comes anywhere near NINJAGO's success, it'll get a TV show. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hasreadit Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 I've seen plenty of recent Ninjago episodes thanks to a little brother who loves them, but I don't get all the hype. The series is meh, and if I wanted a to watch tv I'd watch Legend of Korra or Sherlock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ninjago is a fun kids' adventure series, without pretensions of being a whole lot more than that. But I still find it has pretty good characterization, a beautiful soundtrack, and a good sense of humor.

If Legend of Korra and Sherlock are the standard you hold TV to then a LOT is going to disappoint you. Ninjago is not high art by any stretch, but it IS better than a merchandise-driven TV show necessarily has to be, and as a fan of the actual Ninjago sets that's all I could ask for. The Bionicle movies weren't that much better, but I enjoyed them because they were Bionicle, and the same applies with Ninjago. 1 Quote Formerly Lyichir: Rachira of Influence Aanchir's and Meiko's brother Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dogbert Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 I'd love to see a TV show with the CG animation they used in the old commercials and written by a team led by Greg. That would be awesome. 1 Quote My epic "Volver a comenzar": http://www.bzpower.com/board/topic/21137-volver-a-comenzar/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iblis Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 Regardless of whether there is a TV Show (or it's quality as compared to X, Y, & Z) or not; I hope they don't have an Advertising Only Continuity - e.g. The Piraka looked like they where breaking out of prison - which never happened int eh main storyline, it's a small thing but I'd rather not have people misled by ads, although if there is a TV show I would image that would help to consolidate the storyline.
