The Top Ten

This thing should not exist in the first place

Caillou live action movie would be a good idea

6 The Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack The Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack is an American animated television series created by Thurop Van Orman for Cartoon Network that premiered in North America on June 5, 2008. It stars creator Thurop Van Orman as the voice of Flapjack, a naive young boy who was raised by a whale named Bubbie and is mentored by a salty sea pirate called Captain K'nuckles.

Speaking firmly, I do actually like the show. However, some of its best elements of grim comedy and disturbing scenes that can be attributed as nightmare fuel (in a good way) may not translate so well into live-action.

7 Pickle & Peanut Pickle and Peanut is an American animated television series that premiered on Disney XD on September 7, 2015. The series was created by Noah Z. Jones, creator of Fish Hooks and Almost Naked Animals.

This has to be a joke, right?

13 Courage The Cowardly Dog Courage the Cowardly Dog is an American animated horror comedy television series created by John R. Dilworth for Cartoon Network as part of the network's Cartoon Cartoons block.

We've seen how bad the live-action Scooby-Doo movies were, so this wouldn't be any different if Courage got a live-action adaptation.

16 Looney Tunes Looney Tunes is an American animated series of comedy short films produced by Warner Bros. from 1930 to 1969 during the golden age of American animation, alongside its sister series Merrie Melodies.

There are live action movies but the Looney tunes characters are animated but I'd don't want a movie were the characters are in love action and that would be bad and my childhood would be ruined I hope Warner bros learns from the live action woodey the woodpecker movie and to never ever make a looney tunes movie where the characters are live action.

17 Thundercats ThunderCats is an American animated series based on a group of cat-like humanoid aliens. The show was created by Tobin "Ted" Wolf and animated by Japanese animation studio Pacific Animation Corporation.

They travel on adventures and help others around Equestria while solving problems that arise in their own friendships.

Coming from a brony. Live actions usually don't go well with cartoons but probably something like 2D ponies in the human world like those videos by StormXF3 are good enough

19 Mickey Mouse Cartoons

It would be terrible if Disney ever made a live action movie of Mickey mouse that would be terrible and my childhood would also be ruined and I would lose trust in Disney and I hope it never happens and they learn from that live action woody the woodpecker movie.
