[@DrAwe-fi6we]

The reason Nintendo backed out of the Zelda show after the leak is apparently because they felt Netflix couldn't be trusted with handling the series seeing how they let info about it slip so soon. At least from what I've heard.

[@BallisticGhast6]

I kinda remember hearing about that too back then. Such a bummer they cancelled their projects

[@angryboi595]

I don’t blame them. Netflix will have 12 episodes of a show and then we have to wait like a entire decade for the next season or more episodes, it’s so annoying

[@Johndoe10387]

Dude I’m not even joking when I say I started just yelling “NO!!!!!!!” when I heard about Bone being canceled, I had no idea they were trying to make a TV/Movie adaptation of it, and I loved those novels so much as a kid, and had totally forgotten about them until this video

[@GamerSlyRatchet1]

From what I’ve heard, the Micronauts show announced in 2019 was actually completed, but for some reason, it was never released. The composer for it (who also worked on Castlevania) pointed this out, but that part of his interview was deleted. Hmm…

[@TheLugiaSong]

The cancellation of the Bone adaptation is what introduced me to the book series haha. I haven't actually read it myself, but I've heard a bit about it, and yeah now I'm on the bandwagon for wanting an animation adaptation (on the condition it is 2D animated, as always)! How have all the projects fallen through?

[@DrawtoonzStudio]

The Crash Bandicoot cartoon was confirmed to be a real show in development by the cartoonist that was helming the project, Bill Kopp. It was one of a number of canned projects that prompted him to give up on studios, and now he's independently creating an original series called The Dumb Bunny and Jackass Show. You can also tell he voices Cortex in that test animation (a hallmark of his shows is that he always voices a character, usually the main one). Based on the leaked bible, the quality of the test animation, and Kopp's track record, it sounds like it would've been a really fun show with old-school Saturday morning energy, and as a late bloomer Crash fan, I'm super disappointed it got the axe.

[@supermegabenji1026]

11:10 Here's the Chiff notes version: Microanuts was an Imported Japanese toyline from the Late 70's that had Marvel do a comic series like Transformers to promote the toys. The Characters live in an Quantum like world. The comic series was so popular that it outlasted said toyline. Also, They crossover with the X-men.

[@pocketofvegetables866]

Here's a cancelled ('cancelled' by your loose definition) cartoon I know about: there was a toy line in the 1980s called Robo Force that was going to have a cartoon series to promote it. They made and aired the pilot episode 'Robo Force: The Revenge of Nazgar', but it never got picked up for a full series because other cartoons/toys like The Transformers overshadowed it big-time. As of right now you can watch the pilot online.

[@jack_the_retro_maniac]

Hey Bolt, if you do end up making a lost media video, I recommend bringing up London After Midnight, one of the most sought-after lost films of all time. It was from 1927 starring legendary silent film star Lon Chaney. The last known copy of the film was destroyed in an MGM vault fire around 1965-1967, and the only thing that survived are a lot of production stills. Just a suggestion though. Stay well, Bolt!

It would've been an adaptation of the spiderman 2099 comics it would've started production in 1999 the same year batman beyond premiered which is actually the reason why the concept was scrapped because its producer or marvel said "It was cancelled because Batman Beyond covered that area pretty well" so it was scrapped and reworked into Spiderman: Unlimited
