Turning Mecard is the better show.

It doesn’t sound like they have a distributor just yet. At least the Beyblade movie option has Bruckheimer attached to it.

If this comes out before the Beyblade movie I'm going to be SO upset

Back in 2008, Universal picked up the movie rights and had Harald Zwart work on it. Obviously, that version never materialized and I guess those rights finally reverted back to Spin Master.

Um...good luck? I feel like even setting aside the Pokemon comparisons summoning monsters with merchandise-able sphere toys is a harder sell for live-action.

I can't believe they're actually trying to make a live-action movie again.

I'm amazed they're making a "Bakugan" live-action movie. Heck,I'm still surprised they're going ahead with a "Beyblade" movie with Jerry Bruckheimer at the helm. Surprised I have no idea how this'll turn out. Let's just hope either of these two movies are good.
