Power Pack is a fun concept. Pre-teen siblings that become a superhero team is a unique idea that I think has potential in other media. It might be tough to make a film franchise considering how fast children grow and mature, so perhaps an animated series would be a way to go. With Big Hero 6 being a hit for the studio, I think they have the talent to pull off a similar transition with the Power kids.
I honestly thought this would have been Marvel/Disney's first projects...a live-action Power Pack movie, in the spirit of Escape from Witch Mountain and Return to Witch Mountain, Disney has a history of movies about kids and teenagers with super and/or magical powers. Sigh, but it doesn't seem like it will happen. Return to Witch Mountain (1979?) remains my all-time favorite live-action Walt Disney film.
ReplyDeleteHey! If Power Puff Girls can get a moderately successfu1 feature film, based on their TV series, I don't see why a CGI version of the Power Pack comic book would fail.
ReplyDeleteCome to think of it; how about "Power Pack Meets Power Puff Girls," next?
ReplyDeleteEvery time I loomat the Power Pack, I keen seeing the kids from "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe".
ReplyDeleteAm I the only one?
Power Man and Power Girl, that's what I'd like to see
