dhx was doing the pony stuff before weren't they this is gonna be a blow to there profits.

i imagine clue will be some sort of series of shorts play dough will be an attempt to replicate the success of the lego movie and nothing is ever gonna come of monopoly

>>84487511
auctualy i think i just worked out why they are trying to avoid a repeat of the production problems that have been encountered with the pony film.

>>
>>84487135
I'm pretty sure the only piece of media Hasbro has put out in the last several decades that's not to sell toys is the bayformers films

Why Play-Doh and Monopoly?

I would have thought they make up things like

>Mutant Martian Cyber Dinosauroids
>Jake vs the Skeleton Pirates
>Princess Loftia of the Awesome Dimension in Beverly Hills
>Magic Ninjas of Qi Mountain

Then wrap some toy sets around those concepts.

If there isn't a running gag of "the butler did it!!", I will literally lose my shit.

Also, a Play-Doh cartoon sounds nice though so long as it's a hybrid of cgi and stop motion like the lego movie was

>yfw they make the old guy into a hip young african american
>>
>>84491653

Nuts to that, make it like the Clue movie.
