After the trailer for Wildwood, I have an idea that might interest you. An R rated animated sequel/spin-off called ALEXANDRA with the main antagonist now as the anti-hero protagonist.

Now this I would love to know what everyone else feels about because just from the simple basic outline, it's already interesting.

How I see it since it's my idea is that it will be a hard R animated movie that follows Alexandra, after the events of WILDWOOD, stranded on the streets of New York City, specifically Manhattan, and comes into conflict with a criminal underworld led by a ruthless and power-hungry Russian mob boss. Think of it as LOGAN meets THE PUNISHER: ONE LAST KILL with an essence of magic.

Alexandra will be the only supernatural/fantastical aspect while everything else surrounding her is grounded, visceral and gritty which makes the contrast hit harder and haves her be more special.

The potential screenwriters I would consider for it since I would want new, fresh outside voices that aren't from LAIKA to helm it are:

TRAVIS BEACHAM

(Clash Of The Titans, Pacific Rim, Carnival Row)

ERIK OLESON

(Daredevil S3)

&

REINALDO MARCUS GREEN

(Monsters & Men, King Richard, We Own This City, The Punisher: One Last Kill)

However, the potential directors I would consider for it on the other hand though are:

DAVE WILSON

(Sonnie's Edge from Love, Death & Robots)

ISTVAN ZORKOCZY

(The Secret War from Love, Death & Robots)

&

LOUIS LETERRIER

(The Transporter, Transporter 2, The Incredible Hulk, Clash Of The Titans, The Dark Crystal: Age Of Resistance)

All six choices would be bringing their own distinctive and unique styles to the table that we've never seen before with LAIKA at all. Fingers crossed this ever actually sees the light of day in the future 🤞.

Imagine if Disney won the award once again but non-Disney fan clashed towards the Oscar.

I'm not really against Disney at all. I have a prediction about Wildwood winning an Oscar for Best Animated Feature or not. Stop motion animation deserves a second chance to make it both art form (much like Pinocchio) and blockbuster but the chances are little risky yet challenging. Wildwood deserves to win at all costs, its first win out of six nominations (except Corpse Bride) due to perennial competition against Disney and Pixar.

What to ask a Laika recruiter

I have an informational call with a Laika recruiter, and I want some good questions to ask. This isn't a job interview, just a call, and I have the basic what makes a good candidate questions, but if anyone has any other good questions, let me know. I want to make a good impression.

Wildwood really giving Narnia vibes and I love it

It seems much more emotional and intimate than the 2005 film which I'm for, I really hope to cry in this movie

Edit: And also The Snow Queen, I forgot what it also reminded of.

32 million trailer views is great, but need to protect and rally around Wildwood at the cinemas in October, folks.

Update: It’s up to 79M! (3:55am, Sat 16 May)

In the age of AI, heartbreakingly, painstakingly beautiful true art like this film *needs* to succeed. I feel like soul of human creativity truly LIVES in this film, and what we do with it, and how we handle it, is how we handle that spirit.

I really really really hope this film succeeds!

How is it that everyone in Wildwood has bags under their eyes?

Prue is a teenager and yet she and her baby brother have bags? Is that realistic?

I'd really like to see Laika take a shot at adapting the John Carter books to film

Just imagine seeing Barsoom and all its unique creatures and races in beautiful stop motion animation. I'd cast Chris Evans as John Carter, Dennis Haysbert as Tars Tarkas, and Cote de Pablo as Dejah Thoris.

Who is this mysterious woman?

Is this supposed to be the woman who told Prue's parents about Alexandra?
