I hope it's animated. CG could work.

Bluth and company have been trying to get a movie made for about twenty years I doubt it's going to happen. The fandom for Bluth/Dragon's Lair/laser disc games is very passionate but I don't think it's substantial enough to fund something on this scale (even a few minutes of a teaser/pitch). Even the six issue comic book series from a decade ago had huge production problems that caused the last issues to be delayed by years and finished by a second publisher.

I'm guessing the most we can expect will be continued re-releases of the original games.

I want this to happen so bad. Don Bluth deserves another movie, as does 2D animation.

Loved the games since i played them in the arcades as a kid and a movie would be cool.

Never heard of it... must've been too busy playing the TMNT arcade game or Crazy Taxi.

The original arcade was basically a Laserdisc that was plugged onto a PCB which controls all the scenes in the game.

I'm all kinds of down for this. It'd be awesome to see an actual Don Bluth continuation of Dragon's Lair as opposed to that jank series in the 80s.

...frankly, it'd just be awesome to see Don Bluth make another movie period.
