Hey Dreamworks. How are you? Good? Great. That makes me really happy. Can we talk for a second?
You made boss baby into a tv series for Netflix. Fun! It was a cute movie, with a pretty decent story. Now maybe Iām being an obsessive fan here, but you made a movie a couple (almost six) years ago.
āRise of the Guardiansā. And that was pretty awesome too. With beautiful art. And good characters. It inspired me a lot. Not to mention helped me with my fear of the dark, and got me interested in art later on (To be fair I probably should have been over my fear of the dark by that age anyway, but honestly, I was ready to throw my nightlight out I was so confident then).
And I LOVED that movie. I still do. I mean sure, itās probably forgotten by some people, and it didnāt do great in the box office, but:
It did do better than The Boss Baby. At least rating wise. I canāt really use the box office to back me up since The Boss Baby made roughly (according to my calculations, which are probably incorrect, please correct me if Iām wrong):
While Rise of the Guardians didnāt do quite as well:
But you canāt deny the ratings. People liked this movie!! You still have fans out there!! But we are a dying crowd. Your other shows are fantastic! Voltron, Trollhunters, I love them! And I think people would love a rise of the guardians show as well. Maybe 2D animation? Something simpler?
You could really explore this world more! The movie did have a great ending, but I just feel like there is more to explore! More characters! World building! Backstory for other characters besides Jack! (WHERE IS JAMIES DAD). I probably just sound like another girl still fantasizing over Jack Frost, and youāll probably brush this off or not even see it. Thatās fine. Iām not a fan because I think Jack is hot, Iām a fan because these characters formed my childhood. I just wanted to put this out there.
Theres a new generation of kids out there who can be inspired, just like I was! All because of a TV show about a movie that came out six years ago!! Isnāt that crazy? I know this dumb post on my irrelevant blog wonāt do anything to get us a show, but this is something Iāve been thinking about for a while.
This movie has potential to be carried on in a TV show, with plot that couldnāt be carried through in another movie. Sure, you probably wouldnāt be able to get the original voice actors back. There are a lot of other incredibly talented voice actors out there who could carry these roles on fantastically! There are probably other reasons why this movie canāt be made into a tv show. Thatās alright. I just wanted to put this out there.
I donāt want to put anyone in an uncomfortable situation, or be rude, or do anything that isnāt positive in this post. Iām not trashing on the Boss Baby! If you (Dreamworks) think it can be a good show, then I have high hopes for you! Iām sure you can make it great! I just donāt think it will get the same attention as other shows, like Voltron or Trollhunters. Like perhaps a rise of the guardians show would??? Maybe Iām insane. Sorry for bugging you all with a dumb post, but I just really love Rise Of The Guardians.
EDIT: I know you need Mr Joyceās input on this before this goes anywhere. So Mr Joyce, is by some MIRACLE you see this, I want to to thank you for making my childhood full of wonder. Your stories deserve to be spread to another generation of boys and girls who need it more than ever right now. I know you probably donāt want them spread through a TV series, but I was introduced to these characters stories through the movie, and I think perhaps children could be introduced to them through a fun TV show. I sound insane, and needy, but this movie really does mean a lot to me. By no means do I intend to insult your work by suggesting the beauty of your stories can only be carried onto the next generation through a screen, that is not what Iām saying, I just think a new generation of kids could be shown these characters through it. Youāve done an incredible job. Thank you.
