My Early Thoughts on this Gargoyles Reboot

I was hoping that this was fake news but turns out it's actually real, James Wan confirmed it was real on his Instagram account.

So i'm not excited about this reboot, i'm being very, very sceptical. If it was continuation, I'll be very happy about it but it's a reboot, so it could turn out really good or really bad.

I find it weird that it's going to be live action series, so are the Gargoyles going to CGI and use voice actors for them.

Will they use any of the original cast, like for example keep Keith David as Goliath. could the others have cameos.

I don't know much about James Wan and Gary Dauberman  but apparently they are really good according to people on social media.

Apparently this is the early description.

Goliath is the last of a heroic race of gargoyle warriors who once lived among mankind. Free from a centuries long curse that turned him into stone, Goliath struggles to solve the mystery of his past while watching over modern-day New York City alongside police detective Elisa Maza.

This doesn't appeal to me, does this mean Goliath is the only Gargoyle in this. It will be a big mistake if they don't include the others. I hope it's wrong.

I know it's only in early development at the moment and there are still strikes happening, so it probably won't happen for quite few years yet and things could change or it could be dropped.

For now i'm just going to focus on comic book series and cross my fingers that it will continue for a long time.

Halloween special out tomorrow

Gargoyles issue 10 out next Wednesday

Gargoyles Dark Ages issue 4 out November 1st

Log #31

Dark Shadows Episode #106: The schendenfreude I'm experiencing right now is...delicious.

One Piece Episode #11: There was some weird animation in the first half, but it's all ok because a goat-man shot Usopp in the arm.

Ultraman (1966) Episode #17: And so, Ultraman defeated the reality-warping monster with the power of spinning. Yaaaaaayy!

Reboot "The Edge of Beyond": Nice touch where the Web residents speak like old dial-up internet.

Gargoyles "Awakening Part 5": Is there going to be a romance between a human and a gargoyle? Because it sure feels like it's going that way.

[a-corndog-named-schibbs]

I saw your Gargphone post and I agree about the reboot thing. But what if Gargoyles had a movie like Rocko's Modern Life Static Cling? Where the characters have aged and shows them dealing with the changes of the world?

I certainly think I'd be less nervous about a continuation of the series (either in movie form or as a sequel series) than a straight reboot. Smaller chance of just being a retread of the original

Once I'm done with the series (at least through season 2) I might check out the comics next, since those seem to be considered canon. I know they were published a decade+ after the show, but I'm not sure whether they updated the setting or if it picks up right where the series left off

Makes a reboot virus oc

[starwarsgirl198]

Yep, that's true. I am going through a nostalgia faze and rewatching all the cartoons I watched in the 90s or early 200s when Disney, Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network had nothing but cartoons and maybe like a small handful of live action shows.

Exciting news for fans of Gargoyles!

Gargoyles Live Action Reboot Gets New Co-Production House As Blumhouse And Atomic Monster End Merger

More than a year after stating their intentions to combine their companies, horror maestros Jason Blum and James Wan have made it official. Wan’s banner Atomic Monster and Blum’s Blumhouse have closed a deal to merge, Jason Blum announced on X on Tuesday with a video showcasing titles such as  "Five Nights At Freddy's", The Conjuring, M3GAN and Get Out.

The two banners have worked together previously, and have the feature Night Swim in theaters Friday from Blumhouse’s longtime home Universal, where his and Wan’s combined company has a first-look deal. The pair also were behind the 2023 hit "M3GAN" and first partnered on the Insidious franchise in 2010.

One of the many projects joining the Blumhouse home for upcoming productions is a Gargoyles live-action series for Disney+ which got announced to be on development in October 2023. The live-action reboot series will have Gary Dauberman (Warner Bros "It" Franchise and "Anabelle" franchise),  acting as showrunner with James Wan and Michael Clear (Universal Pictures "M3GAN"), joining the executive producing ranks with Atomic Monster as production label with Disney Television Studios and Disney Branded Television. As of December 2023 there hasn't been any information if original series creator Greg Weisman will be involved.

Yeah, I'm in

Stone by Day, Part One

Gosalyn spends her nights following the human. 

She hadn’t meant to start, really.

 Downtown is so bright, with skyscrapers and giant LED billboards and so many human eyes that she finds herself sticking to the more shadowed parts of the city for safety: the warehouse district, the docks, condemned buildings. She’s drawn to the bay more and more often, mesmerized by the play of moonlight against the sharpness of the black water and how it just seems to go on and on, Duckburg’s distant shore mocking her with its deceptive nearness.

On this night she edges just a little bit closer to the populated streets, her mind on where she’ll get her next meal. She’s hidden in shadow on a low rooftop when she sees the snap of a black wing out of the corner of her eye. She leaps to her feet, heart pounding, and takes after it without a moment’s hesitation, gliding across the spaces between rooftops in desperate pursuit. She catches a brief glimpse of their wings again, disappearing over the side of a building. She doesn’t dare call out lest she’s wrong.

Not a moment later she hears the reverberation of a gargoyle’s roar. Nearly forgoing caution altogether she runs to the edge of the building, smiling for the first time in days because she’s certain that her loneliness will end. 

But it’s no gargoyle. 

A human man rides astride a tremendous motorcycle, a long dark cape fluttering behind him. His bike roars like some great beast as it takes off down the street and Gosalyn watches him go with a hollowness opening up inside her. 

However, her curiosity is not dimmed.

Tim walking into the dining room: Oh B, i just realized, happy 5 years sober, I am really proud of you.

Bruce, small smile and sipping his tea: Thank you Tim.

Dick, looking up confused from his bowl of cereal: What? Sober? Weren't you drinking last night at the gala?

Bruce, brows furrowed: Not from alcohol, Chum.

Tim, after downing his cup of coffee: Damn you didn't know? It was cocain. B was on that booger sugar.

Bruce, making a face: Please, never call it that again.

Dick, after his brain rebooted: You...you did cocain?

Bruce sighing :Yes I did...I though you knew.

Dick, abandoning his bowl of cereal: No, no I very much didn't! How did you...like get into that?

Tim: Dick take it down a notch, please? Bruce has been clean for years.

Bruce, shaking his head: It's fine Tim, I should have been more up front with this to the others.

Dick, with his head tilted and still a bit upset: Others? You mean only Tim knew?

Bruce, nodding: He caught me taking a key from one of Penguins supply when he was Robin and forced me to confess, I went to rehab a week later.

Dick, sitting back down in a stupor: Wait...You mean the thing when you were gone for like a few months? I thought you were on a deep space mission with the league! Hell, Uncle Clark even said so!

Bruce, wincing: Y-Yes...I was in a treatment center in Sweden...Tim found them and signed me up without telling me, and had Clark take me there...

Bruce side eyeing Tim: Took my Kryptonite before doing so...and my stash.

Tim, unapologetic, shrugging: Mom used the same place when she was getting off of Quaaludes.

Bruce, shrunching his nose: Never did like downers, made it harder to think.

Dick, having a mental breakdown: So you just...did drugs? For like a while? When did this even start?

Bruce, silent for a while, moving his breakfast around for a moment: It started when I was about...16? When I was in the club scene for a bit I got wild, taking pills and such that I didn't need, it was the 80s, blow was all the rage with the youth in higher circles and...well one thing lead to another and I got hooked.

Dick, holding his head in his hands: Oh my God...Wait.. Were you actively doing drugs when you adopted me???

Bruce, groaning: Yes...Didn't it ever seem strange that sometimes I was very lively and then suddenly was practically dead an hour later before getting back to lively?

Dick, horror coming across his face: Oh my God the signs...

Tim, chuckling: B was a God damn drug fiend, practically snorted half of Columbia.

Bruce, looking scandalized: Tim! I was not that bad...

Tim staring at Bruce:

Bruce staring back:

Bruce, sighing: Fine yes it was that bad.

Dick: uninhorant screeching

Bruce, tsking: I quit a few years after taking you in Chum, I only relapsed when Jason...temporarily passed...and that was only for at most a year, Tim found me out, sent me to rehab and while I have had a few scares, I have been sober for years.

Dick: Happy for you, really but holy fuck.

Tim, snorting: It wasn't the first time I caught you B, imagine little old 10 year old me following Batman and Robin and stumbling across the Dark Knight of Gotham doing a line on a gargoyle while Robin beat the shit out of the dealers below.

Dick, agape: Really Bruce? Do you even remember that?

Bruce, Blushing: i...may have done that more than once...

Dick, crying on the inside: BRUCE?!

Jason, walking in with a smoothie: Oh what are we yelling at B for? I want in.

Dick, wildly pointing at Bruce: BATMAN DID COCAIN.

Jason, slowly taking a drag from his smoothie, before turning to Bruce: w h a t?

Bruce, hiding his face in his hands, sullenly: I trained you all better than this. Yes I did drugs, I am 5 years sober.

Jason, softly putting his smoothie down before walking over to Bruce and patting his shoulder: Proud of you for that, like actually good job, holy shit that is hard. But also WHAT THE FUCK.

Bruce, sighing hard: I thought you all knew...

Jason flopping down in a chair, counting on his fingers: Wait a God damn minute, you got on my case for smoking while doing cocain!

Bruce, dead panned: it's a gate way to much harder things.

Jason, squinting: Who are you D.A.R.E?

Tim, cackling: he was! Did a whole speech about it! Full Batman regalia and was talking about how weed is bad!

Bruce glaring lightly at Tim: It is! It can cause lung damage, a build up of black tar in the lungs and can dull your mind when you are in a tike of crisis!

Jason, rolling his eyes: B, Shut the fuck up you did cocain.

Bruce, sighing yet again: You really are not letting that go are you...

Tim, sipping his coffee: Think of it like this, there is a reason B was able to get back to fighting like a week after Bane broke his back.

Bruce, pursing his lips,: Not the time Tim.

Tim, grinning evilly: Oh no, it is very much the time, I have been waiting till the others knew...I have so many blackmail stories....and pictures

Bruce, a look of true fear on his face: Oh God no...

Log #21

Dark Shadows Episode #96: I hope Vicki was picking up on the red flags Rodger was waving this entire episode.

Pretty Cure Episode #4: New fun fact: apparently students organize and lead field trips in Japan.

Dekaranger Episode #4: Best exchange:

Ban: Stop feeling sorry for yourself! *flying kick*

Hoji: Don't tell me what to do! *punches Ban*

Kamen Rider Blade Episode #4: So the unconscious guy who is the only one who knows all the answers randomly bursts into flames. Huh.

One Piece Episode #4: It's only been two episodes, and the main group already got separated.

Reboot "The Episode With No Name": On-screen death. FOR KIDS!

Gargoyles "Awakening Part 4": Xanatos is starting to show why there's a TV Trope named after him.

[a-corndog-named-schibbs]

On the one hand, Gargoyles is one of those shows that absolutely does not need a reboot.  On the other hand, the comedic possibilities of the Manhattan Clan in the age of smartphones are limitless

Elisa gets some used phones for all the gargoyles so they can contact her if there’s an emergency. The first text she gets is from Goliath and it just says “HOW DO I TURN THE CAPS LOCK OFF”

Hudson plays around with his phone just enough to fuck up all the settings, but not enough to know how to change them back (“Sorry to bother you, lad, but everything is in Japanese again”). This is Lexington’s biggest source of headaches

Goliath gets one of those apps that lets you track your kids’ phones. It takes the Rookery Trio about three days to realize this

Broadway panics and snaps his phone in half

Lexington cuts the gordian knot by stealing Goliath’s phone and simply deleting the app

Brooklyn’s like “Two can play this fucking game” and downloads the app so he can track Goliath’s phone and text him randomly like “hey so i notice you haven’t left elisa’s apartment for the past four hours what’s that about lol”
