10 Movies That Would Make Great Animated TV Shows

6. Tremors

Hear me out on this one. Everyone knows that Tremors is the best giant worm-based horror comedy ever made, but that still doesn€™t hide the fact that it was released in 1990. However, Ron Underwood€™s magnum opus would make an amazing cartoon and since kids aren€™t allowed to watch the movies anyway then what difference does it make?

There€™s a little known fact that Tremors actually had its own short-lived TV series set after Tremors 3: Back to Perfection. It actually wasn€™t that bad but as it was originally supposed to fill the slot left by the cancelled Farscape, it just didn€™t make up the numbers so was canned after 13 episodes. Tremors: The Animated Series would feature the original cast of the first film, including Val McKee, Earl Basset and, the greatest of them all, Burt Gummer. Gummer would be the real star of the show because there€™s nothing kids love more than paranoid, government-fearing gun nuts. Supermarkets will start stocking Burt Gummer lunchboxes, Burt Gummer pyjamas will be all the rage, and don€™t you dare leave the house without putting on your Burt Gummer mittens. Also Kevin Bacon will definitely do the voice of Val because he does everything.
