Warner Bros. believes in its franchises. It believes that people want to see 10 more DC Universe movies in the next five years. It believes that Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them will be just as big as Harry Potter. And it believes in animation. This year at CinemaCon, Warner Bros. showed off an aggressive production slate from Warner Animation Group (or WAG), the creative think tank whose first-and-thus-far-only release was 2014’s acclaimed LEGO Movie.
The think tank includes LEGO Movie’s Phil Lord and Chris Miller, Neighbors director Nicholas Stoller, Focus filmmakers Glenn Ficarra and John Requa, and other talented male human beings. First up is September’s Storks, a movie about the storks who deliver babies, followed by LEGO Batman next year, and then Smallfoot, a film about a Yeti who thinks (twist!) that humans are real. And there are more LEGO movies – a direct sequel to 2014’s film, plus a Ninjago spin-off, which was described as a mash-up of kung fu films and kaiju movies, and which looked like a LEGO version of Pacific Rim, which is an awesome idea no matter what anyone says.
Most intriguing of all is S.C.O.O.B., a Scooby-Doo reboot slated for 2018 directed by Tony Cervone. In an announcement video, S.C.O.O.B. was described as “our first shot at unlocking the whole Hanna-Barbera Universe,” implying that the long-term plan is for the Scooby-Doo reboot to lead into a whole series of linked franchises based on the cartoons of William Hanna and Joseph Barbera. Warner subsidiary DC Comics is rolling out a slate of Hanna-Barbera comics; if synergy holds, we could be getting a high-octane big-screen reboot of Wacky Races as early as 2020. Heck, SeaLab 2020 could get a reboot by 2020.

It's been in development hell since the days of that Flintstones movie that Spielberg produced with John Goodman as Fred. Which was years before Warner bought Hanna-Barbera. They need to hurry before Danny DeVito gets too old to play Mr. Spacely. -

Co-sign on all of these, especially Wacky Races and Laff-A-LympicsI hope WB finally gets a Jetsons movie going as well.
Actually, I'm surprised that we haven't a Jetsons a project yet. I've always felt that Scooby-Doo was hella overrated, but it is a hellva easy movie to do. All you need to is to have Scooby'em solve a mystery, have the dudes dressed as monsters chase them, and have it withhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CUbWzkwGfgA

Robert Rodriguez was working on a Jetsons movie a few years back at WB. They even had Jim Carrey in mind for George but it's been in perpetual development hell.
