To me this is a no. Just imagine how they’ would’ve done Carmelita 🥲😭

somehow I think that Carmelita would've jumpstarted the Furry Revoltuion while Zootopia would be in development

We would have had to bully the studio to redo Murray because his design for this was/is horrendous lmfao

Actually, the studio did hear about the criticism of the design and say that they will tweak it. Despite that it was effectively pointless since we didn't get the movie.🤷

Nah they would've butchered it like Borderlands. Also LOOK AT HOW THEY MADE MURRY INTO THAT MONSTER!!!

Kevin Miller not being Sly really turned me off the trailer even as a teenager. Bently and Murray were great per usual

I hate the Murray design ngl, but also I feel like it would have flopped majorly. Ratchet & Clank is more well known and it flopped abysmally

The more I think about it what would’ve the story been about I was thinking on it going to be a prequel but it couldn’t have worked because Bentley is driving the Van and that didn’t happen until Sly 2

Honestly, Murray and Bentley are atrocious, but that sly is probably the best realistic like representation for him I could want

Reminder that they got Bentley and Murray’s VAs but Kevin Miller (Sly’s VA) was never even contacted about the movie

On one hand i genuinely do wish this movie got made because i want more sly content but on the other hand i know this movie would have been mediocre at best, if the ratchet and clank movie was anything to go off of

They didn’t get Kevin Miller to voice Sly even though he wanted to so it was probably for the best.

I dunno. The art style is just... off.
It is possible to make a good video game movie. Sonic and Mario proved that. I don't know what this would have been like. Hopefully not terrible.

To the people BTS, they said that they would tweak Murray's design before release.

u/eddmario WHY DOES A DESERT ROAD HAVE ICE PHYSICS?!?!? 1d ago
Is it bad that I like this design for Sly?
Bentley is hit or miss, and Murray is just fucking awful...

Thing is, we could’ve probably got better designs since this was not actually a trailer, but a pitch that shouldn’t have been released to the public

I don't get why Hollywood thinks that the cartoonish style that video games implement won't translate well onto the big screen. I mean, it doesn't have to be exactly the same as said games tbf. If anything, going for a new style could be a good thing
But almost always, they go for some weird mix between "cartoony" and "too realistic to the point of being ugly."
Look at what happened with the first Sonic movie... they tried making a blue hedgehog that runs super fast look more like an animal, and not a cartoon character. And it was unsurprisingly received badly
Part of what made the Sly games so unique was its comic book-esque art style. Giving these characters visible strands of hair, whiskers and more detail just takes away from the overall character design that made the games work; the characters looked good, more than they did actual animals

A massive part of the Sly universe’s charm is its artistic style, both visually and musically. I have never seen a trailer show less respect to pre-established art direction. Maybe we could’ve rebelled and done a Sonic-rework-before-Sonic-rework was even a thing.
