As Dreamers Do Part Deux

Lest I forget...

Sadly, Lorenzo Music still passed away in 2001 ITTL. So a new voice will be necessary for Garfield himself.

Bill Murray is still an option, but there's also John Goodman, John Barnard, Frank Welker, Dana Snyder, Mark Hamill, Patrick Warburton and Maurice LaMarche.
R.I.P. Lorenzo Music

Frank Welker did fine as Garfield IOTL, so maybe he could still voice him for stuff ITTL

Having Dana Snyder voice Garfield sounds like a strange choice, just imagine hearing Garfield talk in Master Shake's voice
 
IOTL, I went and saw the Little Mermaid remake and actually liked it. Although, one change I would've made was to have had Sacha Baron Cohen be Louis the Chef.

Anyways, ITTL, The Little Mermaid made its pay-TV debut on HBO on the evening of June 1, 1990.

Here's how that broadcast started:
 
If we can get Dana to be Binky, we'll still need a voice for Jon, Nermal and for Dr. Liz.
Jon: Is Rob Paulsen available? I mean, there are already four different ways you can interpret "Urusei Yatsura meets Garfield". At this point, I'd own up to such an influence in this timeline.
Nermal: Debi Derryberry (Sidenote, the voice they picked for Nermal in The Garfield Show? If Garfield doesn't mail that kitten to Abu Dhabi, I'd do it for him with that tone he has in that cartoon.)
Dr. Liz: Nicole Sullivan (Ever heard Liz in the Quickies, or in Garfield and Friends, period? Nicole is a near-flawless match.)

I'll take a Warner Freeform renewal four times over if it means Miramax has one less black stain on what can now be considered black paper.

Maybe if that was the case, then maybe the show should have been canceled.

Awesome!

Is this movie a hit?
Which PM thread?
The As Dreamers Do PM.
Not only does the voice cast work, but the new logo adds a bit of zest to the project.
Right.
This sounds nice, but I've noticed that not all of the Original 12 is here, where's Pikachu?
That's what I was asking myself.
But it just said, if Warner Freeform lost the show, AEG/Miramax would have picked it up
Then make a pact where NOBODY else can pick it up.
