It seems Spyro might be about to become a movie star.

Quote: Variety
Spyro the Dragon could soon breathe some fire on the bigscreen: The Animation Picture Co. has optioned the rights to turn the purple star of Sierra Entertainment and Vivendi Game's vidgame franchise into a toon.


The film will apparently be based around the Legend of Spyro games.

I love to be giving good news for once. I found out about the IMDB page on wednesday (Aus. time) but I couldn't get on DarkSpyro because of assignments. I haven't been able to find an official website yet and I won't expect to till some time in mid-late 2008 (rhymes) but I'm sure there'll be some unofficial material turning up reallly soon.

Wow, movie publicity already, maybe I was wrong about the wait for official material. I was using my estimations for ANB and TEN information releases but I guess it's different for movies.

Ha, reminds me of a trip to EB when I discovered ANB was coming out, I hit the web like it was last hope at life (metaphorical, I'm not suici... you get my drift). I was scanning the tele' ads like I actually cared what they had to say. I also got a strange urge to play the Zen level in half-life for some reason (you noticed how convexity is just like zen in nearly every way).

One of my biggest hopes for the movie is that it isn't fricken Cellshaded, urgh. I HATE cellshading. I hope its realistic enough to be believable but also cartoony enough to be fantasy, in visual detail that is. Oh, and I hope the voices are good, I think Tom Kenny is doing the voice for spyro and Gary Oldman is doing the voice for Iginitus, although none of that's not official as far as I know (at least not on IMDsmilie.

Trust me. They have some of the very best and most capable story craftors working on this project. They are eminently qualified and hugely capable. Spyro is in the very best of hands and this will be a movie experience to remember.

Sarnt Major - you can't be serious!? The writers have written Dr. Doolittle 4 (the first three were bad enough)...the company did the latest Garfield (that's not saying much) and the producer worked on such movies as "Shark Bait"...a terrible, ugly "Finding Nemo" rip-off. Please tell me you were being sarcastic there!

I am a Spyro fan but I'm not stupid enough to think this will be any good.

Seriously though, you must be either a troll or one of the people who are working on this movie. There's no other way you could be so optimist with the info we know at the moment.

I sense either someone who is:

A) Sarcastic
smilie Painfully (Hurtfully) Optimistic
C) Blind, Deaf and Dumb

Sorry to be rude. I'm one of the hugest Spyro fans out there, been there since day 1 with Spyro, but even then I can't be positive. I'm not so stupid as to ignore the signs in front of me - everyone involved in this movie have done very poor to horrible work before, I believe in miracles but nothing so huge as to think they'll magically make a good Spyro movie.

Sorry.

All of the above. We'll see...(altho being blind, deaf and dumb that is only a figurative statement). Oops, and that was sarcastic. Sorry :-).

I'm staying pessemistic about the movies quality. That's because, in my experience, if I keep my expectations low, the more likely the movie is to be good in that I'm more likely to notice the good bits more than if I had high expectations. If I have high expectations, I'll notice the bad bits more.
