I call this “Pt 1″ because this could easily evolve into a 15 part series of posts…it more than like won’t, but hey, I can dream. Can’t I? Yes. I can. This is AMERICA, dammit! I can do whatever I want!
But more on topic I’ve been thinking about stuff lately. And here’s what a list of things that should exist but (as far as I know) don’t.
Number One: A live action X-Men show
I have NO idea why this doesn’t exist. Of all the comic book series that exist in the world this is the one that literally begs to be made into a live action series. A TV series that is. Search your heart, you know it to be true.
I should point out though that I’m not a big X-Men fan or even a big comic book fan in general but I’ve always though that X-Men would be a cool TV series. Think One Tree Hill…but with Mutants!
Actually that’s a bad example. I’ve never watched One Tree Hill so I have no idea what the show’s actually like. Anyway, what people could do is just take X-Men: Evolution and just make that live action instead of a cartoon. That show was cool. And it could totally work as a live action show. It’d be better than Dollhouse anyway. But then, what wouldn’t?
Number Two: A Cowboy Bebop video game
Okay, actually, this technically DOES exist…but only in Japan. So I guess what I’m saying here is that an English version should exist also. Also, I have no idea what the actual game(s?) in existence are like gameplay-wise but what I’d expect from a Bebop game would be a beat’em game with aerial/space dogfight levels. I would imagine playing as all three main characters would be standard. Maybe even play as Ein.
I really wouldn’t care if it followed the show’s plot because, well, the plot from the show is more beneath the waves than it is blaring in your face anyway. Plus the show has a very episodic feel to begin with so adding new stories would be cool.
Number Three: Fking Hoverboards
Alright I’ve lived the world of impossibles for too long. A live action X-Men TV show and even a port of a Cowboy Bebop game are too unrealistic. That’s why I’m ending this post with hoverboards. They’re practical.
And also: WHY DON”T THEY FKING EXIST?!
C’mon man, it’s the one idea the 80s had that didn’t totally suck. And that dick of a flimmaker Robert Zemeckis (I don’t care if that’s how you spell his name or not) totally lied about there being hoverboards already existing. The worst part about that previous sentence? The word “lied”. The second worst is Robert Zemeckis because, uh, well, he made that CGI version of Beowulf. And THAT was godawful.
Still though hoverboards would super special awesome on so many fking levels. It would be like skateboarding but with EVEN GREATER chance for injuries!!
Or at the very least guys just make Tony Hawk’s Pro Hoverboarder. That’s an acceptable compromise, right?
It is, dicks. Now get to it. I don’t have all week for this shit to be birthed into being.
