Animated FLINTSTONES Movie In The Works

After numerous attempts at trying to reboot the television series 'The Flintstones' over the past few years, including an attempt by Family Guy creater Seth MacFarlane, Warner Bros has announced plans to make a theatrically released movie based on the popular 60's cartoon.

The Flintstones is one of the most popular cartoons in history, and now Warner Bros. is willing to make an animated film based on everyone's favorite modern stone age family. Some animated movies have been made in the past (my personal favorite being the crossover with another popular TV Show, The Jetsons), but this is the first time the Flintstones have been on the big screen since they appeared in live-action form in 1994's The Flintstones and 2000's The Flintstones In Viva Rock Vegas, but this will be the first time in animated form. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the movie will be produced by Will Ferrell and Adam McKay, with Chris Henchy penning the script. After many people trying to reboot The Flintstones, including Seth MacFarlane whose script didn't go over very well with the studio, this may be the one of the few times that Warner Bros has ever taken an attempt at bring The Flintstones back seriously over the past decade. Well, tell us your thoughts below.

You don't know who I am? Well sit back because my story is a beautiful tale of power and integrity, a captivating experience and ingenious story.

When I was sent to prison for a crime I didn't commit, I signed up for the weapon X program where I got some acid stuff in my eye which caused me to go blind except for whenever I shout the word, "SHAZAM." I was part of Project: Rebirth and given an indestructible shield, however I had gotten bitten by a radioactive spider which caused my father Odin to banish me from my home, only for both my parents to get shot in an alley. And to top it all off, I was exposed to gamma radiation when my mother died and I was abducted from Earth by a strange blue-skinned alien, which gave me the ability to teleport, shapeshift, read minds, and squirt milk from my nose.

Is there really a need for the Flintstones to be rebooted other than brand recognition?

[frick] yeah The Flintstones is the greatest cartoon of all time also i hope they keep the traditional animation style or a CGI mixed with traditional animation style like from the upcoming Peanuts movie.

@MrFridayNights I second that motion for a Simpsons Sequel. And Batman The Animated Series is the second best animated show ever. Right after The Simpsons

It could be better than the live action films. I was just waiting for an announcement for The Flintstones movie since it was to be expected.
