Come to Quark’s, Quark’s is Fun!

General off-topic chat for the crew of startrek.website. Trek-adjacent discussions, other sci-fi television, navigating the Fediverse, server meta (within reason), selling expired cases of Yamok sauce, it’s all fair game.

Given the overlap between OG The Magic School Bus and science fiction / genre fans, this project from Legendary Entertainment to bring the show to the big screen in live action may be of interest.

Given the quality of Legendary’s Dune and Monsterverse productions, there’s reason to believe that it will be a cut above many other legacy IP adaptations.

Who is this movie for?

There is no way it'll be educational, so no one.

Ms Frizzle is a babe, Elizabeth Banks is a babe. I can try to make it seem like it's educational for my kids.

This movie is made for me.

Really? It's not going to be educational?

It's a bunch of school children being taken on magical adventures, so probably primarily school children. With the bonus that their parents recognise it. Doesn't excite me, but it's not a crazy idea.
