I think I'd lost a lot of interest prior to the downtime (I think it started around the time of the "The Yesterday Quest" controversy), but the downtime certainly didn't help. I have been thinking though, that I would really like to see a rebooted Bionicle, with a different continuity, which would hopefully clean up some flaws of the "G1" series. So, I haven't exactly given up on Bionicle entirely, but I have certainly become disenchanted with the current continuity.

Ahhh... it's good to be back. When we last left off, I believe we were talking about which Bionicle characters look like which Pokemon. I made this sketch in Photoshop and have been waiting a long time to share it: Linework is a bit shoddy. This was one of my first drawings with a graphics tablet. EDIT: GAH! Why is it so big? I thought these forums gave you a resize option...

Hello again everyone! Carrying over from a topic in the old forums, would Bionicle work as a feature film in cinemas? There is a trend for movies based on toy lines at the moment- everything from Stretch Armstrong to Candyland has signed up for a film (Even Lego itself has one in the works). Could Bionicle benefit from this trend at all? Would you even want to see a Bionicle movie? Why or why not? If so, how should they go about it? Would it be marketable to a wide audience? From the old discussion, it turns out that Lego has, in fact, recieved several pitches for a Bionicle film. This didn't happen for a multitude of reasons:* Some of the studioes wanted to put human characters in. Lego refused.* The deal with Tinseltown Toons prevented other studioes from releasing Bionicle DVDs.* Bionicle supposedly does not reach a wide enough audience for brand recognition.* And, finally, the line ended before the contract with Tinseltown Toons expired. But what do you guys think? If things had happened a little differently, would a Bionicle film have worked?
