Gummi Bears Live Action Film

Hi there I have been thinking if Disney really wanted to jump on a fun project they could do a live action gummie bears film, nothing like where the gummies come to modern day, but the story of how they lived, maybe mix the first and last episode together and wha-la, the GB would be in CGI naturally, but think if they created a film for this they could relaunch the whole series and maybe jump into a whole new legacy for a new generation.

I have been working on storyboards for over a year now and I am almost done with what I think would be a great idea for a film, yes it has a good bit of the first and last episodes, but it expands beyond that, it shows a little more gummi bears interaction with cavin and calla,

Not sure how to get something like this out of the fanfiction world, eh oh well I think its a great story, ttyl I have to get some sleep,

I think if they were gonna do a live-action feature film, the Gummi Bears will be mo-cap a la Rise of the Planet of the Apes.

I would be into this as long as, like you say, it's not them coming to the modern world. Those movies are lame!

I wonder who could do the voices of the Gummi Bears? For some reason, I could probably see Vanessa Hudgens doing the voice of Sunni. For the voice of Tummi, how about Bill Murray?

Why Bill Murray, you ask? Well, the movie "Ghostbusters" starred Bill Murray in the role of Dr. Peter Venkman. When the movie was made into a cartoon show called "The Real Ghostbusters", it was Lorenzo Music (the voice of Garfield the cat) who voiced Venkman. It just so happens, of course, that Music was also the voice of Tummi on the original Gummi Bears cartoon. When Music died in 2001, at a time when they were making a movie about Garfield (which came out in 2004), they needed someone else to do the voice of the cat. Bill Murray got the role.

So that's why I was thinking of Bill Murray to voice Tummi Gummi in the movie adaptation of the Gummi Bears show, because it originally stemmed from a casting coincidence, but which has now become deliberate.

Who do you think should do the other characters?
