So! Movie thinking! I was thinking about how a Kingdom Hearts Live action movie would work out and this is what I got....

 

So it starts out with not Sora...obviously to separate the movie and game to make it it's own standalone thing. We start out in a town with a Disneyland in it (again please don't kill me). Our hero (we'll call him...Casey) is going to Disneyland after his father died and left him and his mother a pair of lifetime passes. So what's so different about this trip? Well his father left him a cryptic note along with the passes saying "the light is right in front of you". Obviously going to check this out, Casey and his mother go to Disneyland. Turns out, the girl Casey likes (we'll call her...eh...Lexi. Lets not judge before we finish please) also got lifetime passes, although she and her mother purchased theirs. As the two explore the park, they see an odd light coming from an abandoned ride that is closed for repairs.

 

Going to investigate, Casey walks into the light and touches the globe he finds inside. When he returns to reality he sees Lexi surrounded by Heartless. He manages to get them to stop and leave her alone by, you guessed it, taking them down with his Keyblade! But upon defeating them and leaving the ride, they notice that the park is not seemingly empty, except for the Heartless! Mickey's voice is heard telling them to defeat the giant heartless in each of the attractions to unlock the final door that will lead them to the people who trapped them in the park.

 

I'm afraid that's all I got so far...but I would like to see what you think guys! I know it sounds stupid and your first question is gonna likely be why sora isn't the main character in it...well to answer that question is in the first sentence. I wanted this to keep the familiarities of the series without trying to find someone young enough to play Sora...obviously people would complain if the person playing Sora didn't sound like him or even act like him, so best to leave him out of the the story to alleviate the tension and stress that could produce. Anyway, The idea just popped into my head and I have a small cast list...it might not work for all of you so please tell me what person should be whom...

 

Casey-Logan Lerman (every wants him as Sora for some reason)

Lexi-Chloe Grace Moretz (again people want her as Kairi so this is a good test run)

Mickey-(you can already guess this one, but Mickey will be CGI animated or just simply use his 3D model from the games)

Claire (Casey's mother)-Amy Poehler

Cassie (Lexi's mother)-Christina Applegate

Maleficent-Angelina Jolie (she played a good one already so let's bring her back to do it again!)

 

I don't see the point in making KH live action if every character but the humans are going to be CG. Not only that, but the premise is basically KH1 with some differences and with none of the crossover parts, so it doesn't really feel like KH to me.

I think it would be nice to see a KH movie. *gets a machine gun* And if anyone tries to hurt me for that, I'll put lead in your brain.

Hmm, well human, you've got a neat little story there, but honestly, the greatest fear among all Kingdom Hearts fans is that a live action movie would leave a sour taste behind!  Now, if it were hand drawn, such as my majestic, dream demon self, then that'd be another story!

Ha, well, this is a side of the princess I hadn't seen before! You're embracing the chaos after all! B)

 

But anyways, I just find that Kingdom Hearts and live action are two things that don't mix!

*blushes embarrassingly* Y-Yeah, you got to see another part of me that I hide.

Good, my apprentice! You are learning the ways of the chaotic side of the weird! B)

 

Anyways, on topic, I'd much prefer an animated Kingdom Hearts adventure!

Hehe, that's nice. Also, I agree with the animated KH adventure. That would be SO cool to see.

I heard enough and now my take. I don't think this concept is a strong one nor one that could do well in theaters. The people chosen for the characters would be bad choices because they don't seem to fit. I imagined these people as the characters and don't think they would fit especially Logan Lerman. You need people that look like the KH characters. If they use any of the Disney Parks, they would have to find a way to make them either parts of the world making Earth a world in the KH universe or it would have to be like the story I am writing now.

Indeed, I'm sure it'd be a spectacle that'd be appealing to my eye!

Hmm, you're onto something human! Transcendent being a fan of your work, I can see where you're going with this!

I don't agree with the live-action part, but I'd be interested in seeing an animated elongated movie with complete voice cast.

I just think that representing the characters to fit fans' expectations and give newcomers a good drift of the story is best made possible through animation.

Live action doesn't have a very good history either  :sad:

Then it really does depends on what company would take over production, the story, and cast. Who knows if in an alternative universe where the KH animated series actually became a thing, a movie got adapted for it?

A lot of negativity with this idea...I get the fears I really do, but it seems like the most of the fear comes from what the general format will be. The funny thing about my idea was that it was supposed to come around as a sort of side story...something that could take place as a standalone story. It's an idea of pure thought that I thought that  would not receive as many negative responses as it did...even if I did say it was animated, what good value of difference do you think that would have made? I basically would have said some of the same things. Only thing that would have likely changed was the plot. How I see it, it's a matter of the past with movies based on video games not doing so great and how they should have been animated or some excuse or another. Okay so say I did say it would be animated? Would anything I said after, nothing being changed, change your opinion? If you're answer is yes...then I have no idea why you replied. If no, then congrats I discovered the issue...

Look, this is all constructive criticism. Is that kind usually negative? It can be and for good reason. When it comes to ideas like what you have currently, people give their opinion. It's a nice start, but as it stands, it needs improvement and that is what the criticism is for. Don't take it as beating you down. Take it as ways to improve. No one is crucifying you, but rather helping you pave a path to improvement. No ill will.

Okay...sorry for snapping like that...
