Angry Birds Star Wars Coming: What Should Be Next?
-
OK..Nov 8 will bring us Angry Birds Star Wars. VERY much looking forward to it. While there is time until its arrival, now would be a good time to make possible theories/suggestions for a possible next franchise tie in. Some may automatically suggest Star Trek, but personally don't think it would be as interesting. Not to slight Star Trek fans at all, I just don't think it would have the same panache as Star Wars. (Also, while I am not a Trekkie, I do like the franchise). So what should they possibly consider?
Personally, I think a Harry Potter tie in would be an excellent choice. Like Star Trek, I like the franchise, but am not a super fan of it, but would admit that the elements of coolness and panache would go well with such a tie in.
I think that other top suggestions might be Jurassic Park and Indiana Jones. I love both of these franchises, but don't think they would work well as a tie-in either.
Any other great possibilities?
[Edited]
This seems to be the ones that have been suggested thus far:
Angry Birds Justice League
Angry Birds Avengers
Angry Birds Harry Potter
Angry Birds World Tour
Angry Birds Time Travel
Angry Birds Dino Adventure
Angry Birds Aqua Arena -

Hi @heathen
... i think we will get enough for the end of 2012. New AB Star Wars. This week maybe new Halloween Update and i am looking forward to many X-Mas Updates. So i think there is much to Play for this Year :-)
It would be great when ROVIO adds a New Episode in Rio :-) -
Choosing between Star Wars and Star Trek I am for Star Wars and therefore I am really Glad that we have (will have very soon) AB Star Wars franchise. Star Trek is unlikely and I don't mind.
I also think that Harry Potter AB tie in would be great. I could imagine Harry Potter's characters birds in fight against evil. That would be soooo cool. I am totally involved in Harry Potter mania. I read first four books in Croatian translation and was hooked up that I couldn't wait for translations and bought and read following books in English original. But man, I don't like author J. K. Rowling....
I would like to see Pirates of the Caribbean series. -
I may be hard for them to break into Disney. And I don't know if Rovio would considering Disney likes to take over everything it touches. I think a Marvel tie in or Avengers would be sweet. Hulk - Terrance, yellow-ironman, red-capt etc
-
Avengers isn't a bad idea...however, with that also comes the obligatory Justice League as well.... Maybe Rovio can double-up on Warner Brothers for both them and Harry Potter...LOL
Pirates of the Caribbean would be cool, but I don't know if there's enough memorable characters to fill the Angry Birds world. -
They should stick with marvel, I think justice league will bomb. It's just too easy red-cap, Terrence-hulk, blue-hawk eye, yellow-iron man, pink-black widow, orange-antman/giant man, white or black-thor
-
"There are always possibilities." -- Spock
There are infinite possibilities with the Star Trek universe, and CBS/Paramount would be unwise not to explore them.
Disney has an obvious one for AB Space: Pigssss Innnn Spaceeeeeeeee!
As for the other franchises, Harry, Twilight, PotC, Marvel, DC, I don't think there would be as much that you could tie-in with AB. -
There's really no way to really tie in Pigs In Space...besides, they already have pigs in space with Angry Birds Space...
As far as PotC and Twilight, I can see...not much to tie in, but with Marvel, DC and Harry Potter, are you kidding me? There are SEVERAL opportunities that could exist there. -
@heathen, marvel would be great with AB's maybe.. angry birds avenger!
-
Love the idea of AB Avengers!!!
For those old school AB'ers - how about Angry ThunderBirds - LoL! -
Angry Birds Avengers is a great idea!
-
Actually I kinda agree Terence can b the Hulk and yellow bird can b the flash black bird can b Thor and red bird can b iron man
-
http://d.pr/i/y3AF remember this
-
No Id wow dats creative they could also do maybe angry birds in a medevil times castle
-
I would like to see the Birds on a world tour. From the hotness of The Sahara's to the coldness of the Artic!
-
Harry potter! Oh yeah heathen that's great! The red bird could be harry and terrence could be hagrid! blue birds would be weasley twins! yellow bird would be ron and white/pink would be hermione and white/pink would be luna lovegood and orange bird could be neville but I don't know who black would be...Angry birds avengers too except I already had that idea!
The best part of angry birds and harry potter... HOGwarts! -
Not a bad idea @theanonymoussomeone i like it but I'm not a big fan of Harry potter I saw the oldie movies wen they were kids
-
I love Harry Potter! Need a Dumbledore and maybe some other teachers.
-
But dumbledore dies in one of the books.
-
I hope they don't do a harry potter
-
Harry Potter would be cool. I can imagine some aspects of it: Red would be Harry, Chuck would be Ron (or other way around?), Stella would be Hermione, and King Pig would be Voldemort.
-
I can't imagine Voldemort as King Pig.
-
@mvnla2 I'd like to see all important characters, Minerva Hagrid and Snape, besides Dumbledore. And speaking on Snape, last books reveal he is on positive side. How would you imagine Snape?
God, I can't believe. We discuss about something that would probably never happen... -
I think it's quite fun that rovio really listen and make it true to what abn/facebook fans thinks.. one of these ideas will probably happen in the future, and I think marvel/avengers is a great idea! (the avengers/AB picture mash-up is one of my favorites)
When Rovio wondered what we wanted to happen in the AB universe on a facebook status a while back the top three was: star wars (it will happen!), water (in Seasons Piglantis) and the birds in space (great game!).. -
I'm not a big fan of Harry Potter. I liked the movies but I never thought those characters were different enough, so I can't picture the appeal of having them have different powers.
I'm gonna run with this Avengers idea though. The super heroes powers definitely lend themselves well to being applied to the birds. Plus it could lead to some cool new birds.
As for the Pigs they could be various alien races (Skrulls, Frost Giants etc.). What are some other ideas for this because I really want to see it happen. -
I don't see Rovio doing another movie theme after Star Wars. I bet that their post Star Wars game will be something homegrown. I, for one, think they could do a lot with the birds in various locations around the world - like the pyramids, Grand Canyon, Antarctica(obviously a penguin could join the gang here), Eiffel Tower - places that are recognizable to almost everyone on the planet. I also think that time traveling birds would make a great game - lots and lots of possibilities for those clever types at Rovio.
-
@laurafj - I know it's been discussed before about an Angry Birds World Tour, and I like that idea...I also LOVE the time traveling one, but specifically, I think they could also further hone in on it by going back to the age of dinosaurs (and before). I can see it now - Angry Birds Dino Adventure.
I also like the concept of Angry Birds Aqua Arena. (i.e. extending the Piglantis concept) -
I've always thought a game that focuses around educational facts about real birds would be very cool. I love birds in general and think others would love them even more if Rovio made an angry birds game centering on support for wild birds. In real life, birds are very territorial and highly protective of their nests, so the angry birds game would be prefect for teaching more about real birds!
-
So like, angry birds safari or something?
-
I am not much of a Harry potter fan. But I think Angry Birds Avengers is a fantastic idea
-
I was thinking Angry Birds 'Raiders of the Lost Ark' (Raiders of the Lost Nest)
AB and and the Temple of Doom. (Nest of Doom?)
AB and the Last Crusade (Last Crushed Egg?)
AB and the Crystal Skull (Crystal Egg?)
Perhaps a whip cracking Terrance? :)
Or perhaps the 'Time Tunnel' which gives options from Krakatoa to the Titanic or Voyage To The Bottom of the Sea - a complete underwater adventure with an angry Penguin.....
Speaking of Penguin, BATMAN....
Ahh my misspent youth. -
Looks like an Avengers tie in may not be that far fetched after all with Disney buying Lucas Films. This is potentially huge for Rovio. All they need to do is sell the crap out of all Star Wars AB stuff this holiday season and they will have shown Disney that they are worth working with.
-
@lostgreybird : Potentially? IMHO, this IS huge for Rovio.
-
Yes potentially. After AB Star Wars their relationship could cease to exist. Good product, great sales, and good management with licensing/royalties etc. could make this a great partnership for future titles. If they approach it wrong Disney may not want to work with them again.
Just look at Pixar. I never knew that they had a severely fragmented relationship from 1999 all the way until 2006 until Disney finally bought them. Disney "needed" Pixar because Disney Animated Films CGI films were failing compared to Pixar's films & they were taking sales away from them. I know Rovio is on the rise but I don't think Disney "needs" Rovio at all. I'm sure Mickey Mouse still out sells all Angry Birds merchandise.
On a side note, did everyone know that Pixar started as a Lucasfilm Graphics Group in 1979. Weird huh. -
Watch Disney snatch up Rovio later on... lol I knew about Pixar originating in LFL.
-
Prehistoric episode they can call it Land Before Pigs or Land Before Birds or Meet the Birdstones like the flintstones
-
I really hope Disney doesn't buy Rovio! Everything would change....
-
they wont, ROVIO wont let them
-
Look up "hostile takeover"
-
What will be so special about ABSp when ABSW comes out?
-
It's STILL an Angry Birds game...with that logic, you could ask what's so special to Angry Birds when Seasons was introduced? Or how about those two when Rio hit the world? Wanna see why those three are still around when Space was released? They each have their own identity and personality as it were, and I feel worthy of playing, even repeatedly.
-
An Angry Birds NYC would be neat. Level packs could be Manhattan, Times Square, Statue of Liberty and Hurricane Sandy. A new powerup could be a "taxi". The taxi could hold two birds and launch them at the same time.
-
Sorry that I double posted
-
@bboss - I like that idea, but that could be incorporated into Angry Birds World Tour I would think...one area being NYC, Los Angeles, Rome, London, Egypt, Texas, Mexico, Spain, Paris, etc... there's some great possibilities there.
-
@heathen I agree with you. Also, there could be an Angry Birds Town. Level packs could be Deli, Library, Bakery, Resuraunt, House, Park, Apartments, Condos and Laundromat. Each would be themed around the title, so the Deli zone would be in places in the deli, like the showcase, kitchen or dining area. As long as there are buildings in a town, city or village, the possibilities are endless!
-
Angry Birds World Tour seems cool. You know how to submit stuff to Rovio? Go to "Now welcoming visitors to the bloated pig aviary". You can see there.
-
Also will have Voldepork sometime soon!
-
What should we submit, @theanonymoussomeone?
-
@theanonymoussomeone, I couldn't imagine Voldemort as a pig. Someother creature, maybe?
-
You should see @balooon's prehistoric bird. It's AWESOME! It's even in the BP aviary.
