It's to be expected. When a movie takes that leap into the unexpected and unknown, daring to do and go where other films haven't gone and succeeding beyond the hopes and realizations of its producers and director, there are bound to be franchises that follow. Transformers is no different. People said that a cartoon for kids couldn't possibly be made into a successful live action film aimed at all ages. Yet it hit the boxes offices, wowing the skeptics, long time fans, children, and adults alike.
So now we have to brace ourselves for the movies to follow. It happened when the first comic book was made into a movie. It's going to happen again with our cartoons. For Voltron lovers, this is good news. Apparently, a movie has been given the green light. While it might seem hypocritical of me, all I can envision is another bad Power Rangers movie. Then again, I never was a Voltron fan, so maybe I'm being harsh. However, if they can pull off what Transformers managed to do, I wouldn't hesitate to watch it.
On that vein, a live action He-man would be pretty awesome...
