The KLIQNATION Podcast Ep. 11: From the Big Screen to the Animation Room

The trend in Hollywood nowadays is to take a popular television series from the 70s/80s/90s and turn it into a movie.  But what about the hit movies that were transformed into an animated television show? Timdogg, Adam Black, Mista Bamf, and Leroy Jetstream from the KLIQNATION take a look back at some popular animated series based off of movie properties.

  • What a show! I hope there was a mention of the other Michael J. Fox movie to become an animated series, Teen Wolf! Not as successful as the BTTF series, but worth noting.

    Funny how it was acceptable to have our cartoons end with “..The Animated Series” in the title like that. Have you guys caught the new Tron animated series on Disney XD yet? Supposed to be a prequel to Tron: Legacy. Hear it’s pretty good!

    • I believe we did mention Teen Wolf, but that led into us trashing MTV’s remake of Teen Wolf.  I caught an episode of the new Tron: Legacy.  I was impressed.  I need to set a season pass for it so I stop missing it.

  • Hooray for Police Academy! Surprisingly enough, it was an R-Rated flick that did work as a kids’ cartoon, probably because of the various types of zany characters in it. The humor was so goofball that if not for the adult aspect, it would have been the world’s most popular kids movie. In fact, I was definitely underaged when I saw the first 3 or 4 Police Academy films. ta-tas!!!
