Kingdom's Keepers MOVIE?!?

[vmkplayer]

Well that's odd, considering Disney is a movie studio...

I haven't personally read the books - read the beginning of the second as it was lying around - but DW has ready them and I know the basic plots...what I think could be the most interesting is not a specific attraction, but an overlay on the park, perhaps for a late-night upcharge even ala MNSSHP, that could involve guests all around the park somehow...

i mean like.. they've been pushing movies out left and right.. with like up from disney and pixar? and wasnt g-force a disney movie? and then theres ponyo which is coming out.. they should really bring back the classics before the do any more movies..

I think that it shouldn't be made into the movie because disney has been doing a lot with movies lately.. I think they should, however, turn it into a like a "world" or "area" at disney world or disney land. Preferably 2 areas, one at the magic kingdom, the other at animal kingdom, so it fits with the themes. Then it would be cool if you could be like the Kingdom Keepers, and try to solve it yourself on like a scavenger hunt and have some cool prize at the end. But for thoes who read the book, they'd have to make it harder since you know where all the hiding places would be.. I should stop dreaming now shouldnt I?

That sounds a lot like the Kim Possible thing at Epcot.

Kingdom Keepers would make an awesome movie, I wish Disney would do it.

Ridley Pearson is at the Expo in a few weeks, and according to the Expo website, the session he is involved in will also include a 'special announcement'... could be interesting??!

This is an old thread, but interestingly, there is now the Sorcerers of the Magic Kingdom thing, which is still in testing. Not based on Kingdom Keeprs though.

Keep waiting. Disney has not accepted it for production, and with the planned Jon Favreau-led Magic Kingdom movie and a Haunted Mansion remake, it's probably far from thought now...

you should really read the books...they are very exciting

My opinion the first book is the best by far as the series. I don't really look at any the rides/attractions the same anymore.....Firehouse on Main Street/trying to see the shed in Space Mountain, Pirates as a whole, and the snake by SSE in Epcot. Book opens up a whole new world for me.

i agree to that...books take me on a train ride that you could never experience without reading it...

btw...want to be friends?????

I don't see how Ridley doesn't have an issue with the Favreau movie. The premise sounds way too similar to the Kingdom Keeper books.
