I'm looking at the Star Wars section of Disney+ and noticed the 2008 Clone Wars movie wasn't included in their "Star Wars in Timeline Order" section

Isn't it the starting point of the animated series of the same name?

Shoutout to Higsby and Numberman's English dub VA's, i cannot imagine these two characters without them.

So words on the street ROVIO (Creator of Angry Birds) have been purchased by SEGA.
Sega just made a Gatcha game where they turn all their IP's into hot anime girls.

So we'll likely get a hot anime girl angry bird in the near future and i dont know how to feel about this.

Rovio ALMOST did that before (keyword: almost).

Unfortunately making a new ugly stitch design would be funny, I think we are in the timeline where we will probably just get a CGI model of the 2D design with some fur effects, like how they handled the Live Action Pinocchio. The Boring option.

That's what I've been thinking is going to happen, given Disney's most recent attempts at translating cartoons into live-action form. And sadly that's probably going to look even worse by landing in straight-up Uncanny Valley territory.

It's difficult to find a happy medium between live-action CGI designs that don't look ugly but also remain faithful to their original designs. Detective Pikachu and Sonic (after enough backlash) accomplished it, though, so it's not impossible. Disney just hasn't been able to hit the mark so far.

I mean they went the photorealistic option with Lion Kong, and it was visually impressive but I don't want them to return to that.

I will say, I did like the way the Beast looked in the 2017 Beauty and Beast, but they could have made his face more... Beastly

They arent going too but they should get the guys who did the designs for Detective Pikachu, they did a good job translating weird creature designs into Live action i'm sure they could make Stitch look good.

my office, probably
Kang's whole shtick is that he's has variants so I don't see why they can't recast him

Kinda.

The tv series has super messy chronology and the movie takes place after the chronologically first and second episodes. It does establish the core cast and status quo though

probably doesn’t help that the MCU has so far
decided to make every single Kang look exactly like Johnathan Majors, unlike the Peter Parkers and Lokis who have their variants differ from one another
