sterling Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 What do you all think of The Berries becoming cartoon characters playing themselves. It would be very similar to the Beatles doing the same thing. Does anyone remember the Beatles Cartoon show?Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SugarBabi7 Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 I remember that, it was pretty cute. I think the Berries would have to be more widely known in order to pull it off, so as not to be perceived as just cartoon characters. Judging by the amount of people that still go "Who are they", they need to bring themselves before the public in more concerts and talk shows and radio play with new material before going the cartoon route. But if or when they do, I think they would be adorable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill C Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 Sterling, maybe you could start a comic book featuring the Raspberries. You could make it a monthly publication, put it up for sale on the web-site! If I was artistic I would do it. You could have the boys in concerts all over the place and have....who could be a villian?...Yeah! the Cleveland Press!....or Capitol Records!...This Idea has some merit! It could be the start of something big!Bill C. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sterling Posted December 30, 2005 Author Share Posted December 30, 2005 Great idea Bill! Too bad I do not have the art talents of my middle daughter who is an art school grad. Not sure I can convince her to do it. It could be a fun project though.Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julie Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 Oh I can see it now! Tony C. and Kirk up in the treehouse spying on the boys! Coming up with all kinds of evil plots.Darlene with her little lemonade stand down the block--kinda like Lucy! Dispensing lemonade, teaching violin lessons and interpretting dreams....hmmmmm.....--Julie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill C Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 I think you'd have to make characatures of the guys in the 70's. Eric with the high hairdo. Wally with the long hair and signature hat. Dave would have to have a pretty big Adams apple. What about Jim? What feature could you capitalize on?Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SugarBabi7 Posted December 31, 2005 Share Posted December 31, 2005 How about the soulful, puppy dog eyes. He has great eyes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SugarBabi7 Posted December 31, 2005 Share Posted December 31, 2005 There's that one picture of him on the montage where you get a closeup of those eyes,ahhhhh..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill C Posted December 31, 2005 Share Posted December 31, 2005 I don't think it would've been appropriate for me to point that out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SugarBabi7 Posted December 31, 2005 Share Posted December 31, 2005 Then too, there's that video of them recording in the studio where Eric has some facial hair and kinda has that Teen Wolf look. Could be good for a plotline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Cartmill Posted December 31, 2005 Share Posted December 31, 2005 "What's that Eric? You've had 20 calls from executives and backers begging you to do a Rapberries cartoon series?...Why, of course you have..." <img border="0" alt="[blech!]" title="" src="graemlins/blech.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trindy Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 OK, OK, but hey, it's not like there's never been a successful comic set in Cleveland before...ask Harvey Pekar...or the guy who did Howard the Duck... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeC Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 It's a good idea, maybe for later in the year, like Thanksgiving or later, because more people could watch. A holiday theme is best at that time. Show them rehearsing music in a garage. Then, later, everyone has a big meal together, and they talk about the meaning of friendships, family, and what's important at that time of year for everyone. A few jokes, or 'The jokes on you' antics at the dinner table. If you watch The Simpsons, like I've been doing lately, you can get some ideas. Cable T.V. would be less expensive than the main T.V. stations. I was talking to my friend today, who is producing an animation film project in the future, but not doing the actual animation, and learned some things about this. Get ideas, and try to put them together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
