Considering the Dofus movie was a failure (While still being a really good movie) is there any chance of us getting a Wakfu movie like they originally planned?
Also general wakfu/dofus thread.

It wasn't a "really good movie", it was just average. As for whether we're getting a wakfu one or not, it'd probably depend on how well s03 does.
>naming your movie "book 1" before you even know if you're going to have sequels
Such arrogance.

>implying there won't be a sequel even despite the flop
>>84545244
They said they didn't want to stop here and if there's a sequel, it'll be more aimed to "preschool" (6-12) but that's a TERRIBLE idea.
>>84546405
You don't know what preschool means. You're retarded.

They should have made another series.
Movies are tough as fuck to sell if you don't have the hype money.
Dofus just doesn't resonate with most people while Wakfu does. I'm about to say something I don't believe but might be worth trying - maybe Akama needs to drop Dofus for awhile and just brand Wakfu with Dofus just as side direct to Netflix videos? I hate saying it, but it's probably financially the right choice.
>>84546652
And I got to say this too - nobody cares about the puppet. Make it a Dofus serial with different stories each movie focusing on a different member of a different race as the protagonist. Let Dofus explore the world without an anchor.
Please disagree with me because I'm saying this with logic and I love the shit out of Dofus, but I don't know how viable the characters are.
>>84542726
How bad did it flop?
>>84546652
This. I don't get at all why they're pushing Dofus.
I -tolerate- Dofus during the times I'm pining for more Wakfu content.
Wakfu had a team dynamic storyline that resonated with me, they were like an RPG team doing crazy fun shit together and saving the world. It works for the same reasons the Avengers movies work so fucking well to a normal audience.
>>84542726
The movie was very fucking bad.
Like, almost offensively bad considering what these people have done before.
The characters and animation are top notch as always, but the story goes beyond pants-on-head retarded at various points.
This movie barely deserves more than a 5/10.
If a sequel were to be made, for the love of fuck get another creative team to work on it.
>>84546462
That's the term and age span they used, don't be rude.

You're beyond retarded then. You must have had a lobotomy.

>movie failed
Others failure makes me feel good about myself. So I'm glad it failed.
>>84548269
The turk coup d'etat failed. That ought to make you feel great for a while. Now shoo, shoo!
>>84546744
It did about as well as other animation movies in France that aren't Disney/Pixar. Considering the terrible date they picked for release and the spotty distribution of theaters showing it, you could argue it did pretty well in context.

>This. I don't get at all why they're pushing Dofus.
>I -tolerate- Dofus during the times I'm pining for more Wakfu content.
And I don't feel hype for Wakfu anymore while I loved almost every moment of Dofus. Should I question why they push Wakfu?
>>84542726
>is there any chance of us getting a Wakfu movie like they originally planned?
I think the OVAs and season 3 took over what could have been the movie(s), but I can't back that up.
Wait, people hate this movie? Why? I was never familiar with neither wakfu nor dofus (besides the porn that is), and pretty much decided to watch it after finding a cute gifset of Lilotte, and overall I heartily enjoyed it, so what's the problem?

>Wakfu/Dofus designs
>for the formative years
The next generation will be glorious.
>>84542726
Are you sure Wakfu season 3 is not "good enough"? Why does everything need a movie, what's wrong with a show format?
>wakfu movie
>after the 3 other specials
Just release season 3 already.
>>84552874
I really wish the audio wasn't so awful for this scene. It just loses the magic when it's literally just 4 french girls talk singing.
>>84546652
I thought the Dofus TV show did better in France than Wakfu though? Maybe that's why the went for it.
>>84550643
>It did about as well as other animation movies in France that aren't Disney/Pixar
Yeah, but it looks worse for Dofus because it was released at the same time as the Long Way North, which did better both financially and critically for a French animated film, so comparisons got drawn.
>>84551378
Dunno, but as someone who watched Dofus I also really enjoyed it and felt it answered a few questions I had from the OVA and explains some other things about Joris. Plus I just like how most of the characters were handled, mostly the main antagonist and Lilotte
Reminder the only way to fix the Kros Universe/World of 12 is to remove Tot.

It's probably because you guys are american and don't get to see the whole picture like in france, or maybe because you're only considering the cartoons,but you've got it backwards: Ankama built itself on Dofus, the game and media franchise, and Wakfu is the dream spinoff they could afford while they had moneyhats.
And it should have been different, Wakfu should've become a media franchise in itself, except the main game was stuck in dev hell for too long and once it came out it never took off the way Dofus did. The series is a critical success for animation fans but not really all that noticed outside of it, and not raking in the big bucks, even not comparing it to the way a successful subscription-based MMO can. The commercial value of a series is mainly in the merchandise it can help push. And wakfu's merchandising was too little too late.
But Ankama still wants a transmedia franchise, and the moneyhats are gone, so the only strategy left is to make dofus-related series and movies.
