    Sony, why cancel this??? I was so excited for this movie, I love Mythology, and Faust's art style is one of my favorite styles, I would of totally watched this a few times. I really hope this gets revived one day.

    We could have had THIS but no. Sony can't fucking realize how stupid their investment in a movie about basic representations of human emotions and objects is. If you want a movie about emotions that's less cancerous, why not watch Inside Out? Sony needs to step up their shit ffs. LEARN YOUR AUDIENCE, SONY.

    They had to cancel Medusa, Can you imagine and the Popeye movie, three very promising projects so that they can make The Emoji Movie? I can now see why Animat hate this company so much.

    I honestly think if Craig McCracken and Lauren Faust did make a Alvin and the Chipmunks cartoon, I think the cartoon would be great and would win lots of awards. I could so see Craig McCracken and Lauren Faust making a Alvin and the Chipmunks cartoon.

    I personally think the 60s and the 80s and the current Alvin and the Chipmunks cartoons is not that good. I'm not saying they're terrible, but they are pretty average.

    Also I could so see Craig McCracken and Lauren Faust bringing a lot more new ideas to the table and doing much more world building in a new series than the ones that the original creators did in the other cartoons. Let's just face it, the world building in the original cartoons were not that good.

    I still like The Chipettes, but they were essentially rip offs of the original Chipmunks. So I would love to see much more original chipmunk and other anthropomorphic animal characters in a new series than the ones shown in the other cartoons.

    What I love most about Faust is that, while she implements female protags, she never panders, where she writes them like real individuals with actual personalities and flaws. What's more, she doesn't try to belittle others, where her content is enjoyable for everyone, boys girls, adults, we can all watch her work and enjoy it while never feeling talked down too.
