If we get a Clair Obscur movie, here's what I'd love to see

Discussion

We know the movie rights have already been sold, but we haven't heard much of the actual movie being made, so I thought I'd share some ideas I have for a possible franchise. I know everyone's getting bored of franchises lately but I've seen people here talking about how cool it'd be if the movie was actually about a previous expedition. So here's how I think that could work.

Expedition 33 moive. The obvious one. I think if we ever want to see other expeditions, they'd have to establish the world with the original story.

Expedition 60 series. Animated series, starting out as a comedy, in the first episode everyone in Lumiére making fun of a bunch of people in their 50s training to be super strong. Episode two keeps the same tone, they get to the continent, easily wiping the floor with the early Nevrons. Then, in episode three, a strong Nevron kills someone, and that's when the series takes a dark turn.

From that point on, it gets pretty serious. Obviously, we know their story, they still make it to the paintress. They find out the truth at the end of the second to last episode. Then in the finale, we'll have two different storylines. We follow William as he tries to get back to Lumiére, while the rest of the group fight Renoir, and loses. The last scene would be William gommaging just as he's about to reach the beaches of Lumiére.

Alternatively, it could be interesting if William had more than enough time to get back, but gets into a fight with a nevron and gets seriously injured. The Gestrals heal him, but he loses too much time, and that's why he can't make it back in time.

Expedition Zero movie/series. Lots of interesting stuff in here, we'd get to see the Fracture, the stories of Julie, Simon, Clea. It'be fun to see Simon defeat the Axon, and there are a bunch of interesting storylines here. Maybe would work better as a series.

Verso and Monoco series. Not sure which year it would be set, but one time Verso mentions they had lots of time to kill so he taught Monoco English. It'd be set around those times, maybe a bit later because it's better if Monoco can speak. It'd be mostly funny but kinda serious show. Their back and forth is great in the game, it'd be cool to see their shenanigans as they try to one up and make fun of each other. I think this would be an awesome show.

Lumiére series. Set a few years before Monolith Year 33, would follow Gustave, Emma and Sophie, around the time Maelle moves in with him. We could see more of the Expedition 33 members, and how the people of Lumiére live.

Obviously, it's very unlikely that we'll get any of these besides the E33 movie itself, and maybe we'd be better off if they don't milk Clair Obscur just because they can. But it's fun to think about the possiblities, and the world is rich enough to tell these stories without ruining the original. What kind of movies or series would you guys like to see?
