This week on Post Credits Lounge, André Joseph and Marcos Cosme dive into the bizarre, nostalgic, ambitious, and sometimes disastrous world of Saturday morning cartoons adapted into live-action movies. From beloved hits like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Scooby-Doo, Transformers, and The Flintstones to infamous misfires like Inspector Gadget, Masters of the Universe, Garfield, and The Last Airbender, the hosts break down what made certain adaptations work while others completely missed the spirit of their source material. Along the way, they explore Hollywood’s obsession with recognizable IP, whether modern visual effects have finally caught up to these properties, and which cartoons still deserve a proper live-action shot. Expect nostalgia, hot takes, and a whole lot of weird adaptation history.
