It's fucking unreal Max Landis tweeted that. I want to believe he was simply trolling the original movie's fans. Otherwise, somebody should slap him.

Hard.

Alas, I fear you'll have to keep dreaming. Even putting aside the challenges of selling this idea to the mainstream, that has been covered extensively by others, the biggest problem lies within. Even within our community, there is no common ground on what "it" is. The TF interest is just too varied.

Violence or non-violent, willing victim or resistance, pleasure or pain, constant or changed personality, slow medium or fast change, anthro or feral final form, tail or not, skin-rip or not? And that's just off the top of my head and thinking about werewolves, much less all the other TF possibilities. As much as we might dream, there will never be the ultimate work that satisfies the TF community.

I think there are two things you need to look at: The budget and the director.

If they make it up to be a blockbuster with a budget over 100mil then it will be about par with everything that has come after AWIL. The execs will get involved and focus test the ever living shit out of it.

What you want is a 20 mil film, that seems to be the magic number. Most studio higher ups really don't give a shit about these "small" films, preferring to be involved in the blockbusters, because if they do well, they look good. So the reins are usually a bit looser on these films. If they get a cult hit, then they make back their money in spades. If not, well... its only 20 mil.

And a for a movie like this which has one CG character who only shows up sporadically on film, 20mil is plenty... in skilled hands.

Now the director. I know nothing about the director. I heard Chronicle was good. Has anyone seen his stuff? If he is a director who is able to come into a film with a vision and stick with it then we have some hope.

He is a man who is passionate about film, and film making. I'd say odds on a female werewolf in a Max Landis AWIL are something like 30/70. Either his Alex would become a werewolf that would have her shit in order, or she would be the one to track down and shut down the wolf. I'm not putting odds on there being a transformation scene for Alex.

Whoa, wait, it didn't click for me until this moment that John Landis was the director of AWIL. Man, in that case, Max Landis has probably heard more about his dad's intended sequel about Alex being similarly cursed than anyone else on the planet.

And maybe he's also heard more about why it hasn't been done than anyone else on the planet?

I'm thinking there's a reason the remake has a better chance of getting made than that sequel ever had. But I'm just not sure what it could be...

I don't know if this was mentioned yet (sorry, will fully admit to being to lazy to read every post on the other 6 pages) but speaking of Max Landis, he's the one behind the new Dirk Gently series, in which a girl had her body swapped with a corgi. Theres no process at all, except for one scene where the girl trapped inside the corgi, I don't know, 'spirit yells' (?) at this one character and we see her face emerge from the dog. Again, not a TF with process.

You are such an odd person.

Many women have confirmed me this reality: women in many ways are more savage than men. Like me, many people think this.

This isn't a blog!

Don't just throw a series of random words together from the internet and assume they form coherent sentences. It doesn't work that way. You are the oddest person here, currently. We had an odder one, but I think he died or was banned forever.. or both. So yes, you are presently the oddest duck in a pond of ducks who are much less odd than yourself, deal with that reality.

If only we could 'like' posts around here...

Call me naïve, but there's a lot more to TF material for me than just the jerk-off factor. Tragedy, drama, pathos, comedy, horror, actual honest-to-goodness decent storytelling. I think boiling everything down to masturbation is a tad cynical, to be honest.

Who's boiling everything down to simple masturbation? Now, considering the fetish nature of this site, I think it's fair to assume that a majority here find the TF genre to be erotic and views it as a sexual fantasy. Not everyone, obviously, but I'd be willing to bet money that a majority does exist that views it that way.

You can have non-sexual TF's that incorporate all the aspects you just mentioned. It can be comical, horrifying, dramatic, tell a good story, etc etc. But if it does, I think there's more than a good chance that what you're going to get isn't really going to be what a lot of folks on this board are looking for when they come to this fetish site.

What people who are coming to this fetish site are looking for is exactly the kind of TF that isn't going to make it to the big screen, particularly when it comes to female TF's. I'm sure a female werewolf story could be told on the big screen that's comical, dramatic, etc...but it's not going to go into a graphic and in-depth metamorphosis of the female form...which is pretty much the core foundation of The Process.

See what I'm saying?
