    Default It's Criminal They Haven't Made A Big Budget Movie Of...

    My take: Archie.

    What's yours?

    King Kong vs Godzilla. Sure, there's the Japanese classic, but I wouldn't call it big budget. There's also the big budget clip show of fight scenes from Hollywood earlier this year, but I wouldn't call that a movie...

    There is Godzilla vs. Kong that has a budget of $200 million which was released in March of 2021. Does that count?

    As I said in the post you quoted - "There's also the big budget clip show of fight scenes from Hollywood earlier this year, but I wouldn't call that a movie..." - so no.
    That's not a movie, that's some CGI fight scenes interrupted by the most inane and pointless of fillers...
    Truth, it's only worth watching as standalone clips uploaded to Youtube, anything more than watching the fights on youtube feels like literally sacrificing a few brain cells to kill time.

    This should be like if the newer Bond movies, TF movies and Fast n Furious movies were dumped in a blender.

    Not sure if this is intended to be serious or not but why would Archie need a big budget? Where would the money go?

    Archie is better on TV.

    My take is Enid Blyton fantasy books like The Folks of the Faraway Tree series.

    Certainly not for lack of trying and I also don't really see it ever getting made under a big budget studio but probably a Blood Meridian adaptation.

    Red Harvest has also been a pretty influential book on quite a few films and but the closest ever gotten to an adaptation was Last Man Standing but that's considered a remake of Yojimbo.

    I’m a social studies teacher, so…

    Hannibal is campaigns in the Second Punic Wars.

    Attila the Hun vs Aetius The Last Of The Romans.
    Like action, adventure, rogues, and outlaws? Like anti-heroes, femme fatales, mysteries and thrillers?

    I wrote a book with them. Outlaw’s Shadow: A Sherwood Noir. Robin Hood’s evil counterpart, Guy of Gisbourne, is the main character. Feel free to give it a look: https://read.amazon.com/kp/embed?asi...E2PKBNJFH76GQP

    You think that pile of CGI burgers Jughead eats are just going to pay for themselves.

    On the Archie theme how about Mighty Crusaders?

    They made a live action Josie and The Pussycats. Then when Dan DeCarlo wanted to get paid cuz he created the Josie character, Archie Comics fired him.

    I have always felt that movie was made with the intentions that we forget it quickly. Also Josie and the pussycats is better as a tv series.
