The Power is Sony Pictures'!

[Ashton]

The joke has become real: Sony Pictures is making a live-action Captain Planet movie. Go Planet?

I don't know if I should laugh or go cry in a corner somewhere as Sony rapes my childhood.

Meanwhile, there's a live action Gatchaman movie being made, which for those of you not in the know, is better known in the west as either Battle of the Planets or G-Force (or Science Ninja Team Gatchaman).

Either way, I'd love to see how they'll try to convince movie goers how not completely useless the Power of Heart is.

This sounds like a glorious train wreck of a movie which I will never bother seeing.

Now question is who will the villain be? There were only three effective villians in the series, the alien guy who corrupted the planeteers (or something....I don't remember anything beyond the gauntlets he gave them and that Ma-Ti was the only one who snubbed the guy), Captain Pollution, and Hitler. So of course the storyline should have one of those three. Captain Pollution seems like a better fit for movie two though.

Either way, I'd love to see how they'll try to convince movie goers how not completely useless the Power of Heart is.

Heart is the most broken power in the show. Had it been used effectively, then every episode would have ended within like 5 minutes of the start while the other four just sat around. It just is the least interesting visually.....wait or did it not work on people? If it didn't then yeah it is just kind of useless I guess.

I would expect to see the episodic villains for the first movie rather than one of the major villains since they more or less had a villainous hierarchy. I personally want to see the female villain just to see how cheezy they make her computerize accomplice's appearance. Either way though, Captain Pollution won't show up til at least the second movie.

As for the Power of Heart, I think it was used on people on occasion but the effects would last like a minute at most. Either way, unless animals were involved the power was little more than a distraction at best.

The other amusing thing would be to see the carbon footprint the making of this movie leaves behind.
