Would a real The Mask movie work, or would it be seen as too edgy?

It's... difficult.
A live-action adaptation isn't a good choice; CGI is pretty bad these days.
Then there's the comedy genre. The Mask has too much visual comedy to be taken seriously.

What if it's animated? Something like the Spawn TAS

It might work, but like I said, there's too much comedy to be taken seriously.

I think the Jim Carrey version became too popular to ever try and do an accurate live action Mask.

>>154024174
Yeah, it's a great thing they never made a sequel without him.

>>154023989
It would be quite tricky to pull off, but I'd love to see a new The Mask movie made similarly to Angry Kid.

I know "old man [whatever]" is a meme but retrying a true adaption with an older Jim Carrey could be kino
>>
>>154024130
then you make it a "black comedy"

>too much comedy to be taken seriously
Look at this casual

>>154023989
At best it seems like it would fit right into 2005 era bleeding edge nonsense.
Comic Accurate Mask is really just
>What if Looney tunes but in real life so they actually murder people with hammers and anvils!?!?!?!

And we lived through that era already.

It's amazing how studios have backslid into the Hercules and Xena levels of shitty cgi that does not match up with the film and looks weird all over again.

we did?

>Ace Ventura TWOOOOOOOOO!!
>The Mask knocked up me mum!
Yes I'm still pissed it wasn't the other way around.

Unless you are too young to remember or know about the Trenchcoat and Godsmack edgy era of entertainment. The time when Family Guy did not really have jokes, but whatever new shocking gore-filled or intentionally offensive thing they can display on screen for some more
>Uh oh! We went THERE!!!
points.

>>154026962
Oh that what you meant! I thought you were talking about the actual Looney Tunes murdering people, which the closest thing to that was Lunatix Unleashed, and they didn't murder anyone there
>>
>>154024107
With today's production values?
The best that can happen is if Phil Bourassa is working on it. The worst? Powerhouse or MIR.

>>154023989
No

>>154023989
No
