“We had very high hopes for it, but it far exceeded our expectations as far as how hot it was. As far as toys to software, it was maybe two or three times what we thought it was going to be. It was a lot higher than we anticipated.”

Activision hasn’t ruled out the possibility of taking the franchise trans-media with a movie or TV series, either.

I would be surprised if there isn't a cartoon if Giants is as successful as the original. So many characters to build stories around, and a villain that is already comical. It's almost too easy.

I'm glad the game is doing great. It's always nice to see great ideas become successful. Better then a lot of crap these days.

I think I remember hearing about them considering a show or movie in the future. Honestly, a direct to tv movie would be great, or even one direct to dvd/bluray (because then they could include a special figure with it!)

I can't really see a show working well, unless it had really great writers if not the ones who worked on the game. Shows like that always become awful.

Lets get the creators of MLP to write it! YAY!

Yes. This. Say what you will about ponies, but that crew knows how to write an animated series. The very fact that we're debating whether or not ponies are awesome in the first place is testament to their skill.

Ummm...no.

The Skylanders story is written by writers from Pixar who wrote Toy Story. Who could write it better than that?

Pixar wrote Brave. They can't always win.

If they make skylanders: the show...
THEN I WILL LOVE YOU ACTIVISION

It'll be live action and called BOOM: Flynn's Adventures. Washburn in an animal costume hits on random women and gets rejected.

Hurf.
Just because they work at Pixar doesn't mean they've worked on other movies. In fact, it seems they've only worked on (as in, credits for Screenplay) Toy Story and TS2

And woah there trigger. Brave was good. If you wanted to make fun of them, you should have mentioned they worked on BOTH godawful Garfield movies and Daddy Day Camp. *shudders*

Yes, I saw Brave over the weekend too...definitely NOT my favorite Pixar movie (and I LIKED Cars 2...go ahead, pile on the abuse). But still...Toy Story! TOY STORY! Who doesn't love Toy Story? Show me someone who doesn't love Toy Story and I'll show you someone without a heart!

But then, Garfield? Really? Sigh...
