My goodness... This would have been such an amazing movie. I can imagine what the sets would have been next year. I'm sensing the Element Lords were gonna be sets. I also love the concept of the ever-shifting maze. Kudos, Greg. It's a shame this will never be...
GregFNo BIONICLE 6 movie outline exists. Had we done one, it would have been written in 2009, but by 2009, we knew there would be no 2011 movie -- so no need to write an outline. Also, just to answer the couple folks who brought it up -- you don't get "character depth" in a screen treatment. That's what the actual script is for. The treatment is to give the studio an idea of the plot and a way to estimate how much making the movie will cost. Character interaction, etc. is not the point of this exercise.
What was your basic idea for it was though? I'm guessing it would've been the team finding a way back to Bara Magna, ready for 2012 to become the current 2010?
I would LOVE to have seen some dinosaur Bionicle sets (other than Fero). This would have been a really cool movie. Maybe part of this will work its way into the storyline (hopefully the dinosaurs )
I now want to viciously strangle TLC! This would have been an EPIC movie And A Plague tribe Glatorian!(As in GregF's post one page...2?) But, at least the MOCers here on BZP have 3 or 4 new people to have contests for! *remembers it's not Canon* ARG!!!!!!
JURASSIC PARK V:BIONICLE Coming Soon to a theater near you.
THAT WOULD BE BEAST! Literally!
I really like the movie though, but the one thing about it I didn't like, was how after all that, MN, Kiina, and Ackar leave Bara Magna. (At least Kiina gets her wish) But still. What would the B Magnans do with a giant robot and no one to operate it? Also, how the heck would the three of them survive and make it to Bota Magna? It doesn't make much sense.
It is sad that this will never be turned into a movie.
I have one question: If the BIONICLE sets were not to be cancelled by 2010 would the Stars still be considered canon? I would've thought that Tahu and Takanuva would be in the movie.
That was amazing! I'm sure Tahu could have waited until 2011 or 2012 to collect the Golden Armor. I could totally see how the 2010 story would have gone...
Winter Sets: Ackar (new armor), Kiina (new armor), Skrall (different armor than 2009 Skrall), Oris, Tera, Likus, and a Mata Nui Titan (maybe) Winter Story: Mata Nui, Ackar, Kiina, Gresh and Berix's adventures between the end of TLR and the scene where MN, Ackar and Kiina meet the Skrall; ends soon after Gresh and Berix return to the mega village Serials: Reign of Shadows (continued from 2009), a serial about Tera and Likus, and Sahmad's Tale (mini serial) Summer Sets: Element Lords Summer Story: movie, basically Serials: Sahmad's Tale ends, replaced by another mini serial featuring Gresh's and Berix's adventures in the mega village
That would have been awesome. But what happened to the Skrall? I guess he died? Well, let's see how the new 2010 story compares to this.
Omg wow, that was gooood! I wish to nuts that they would make this a movie for real. That would rock everyone's socks, and Oris and all them could be sets. How interesting. And why oh why do they always resort to Unity in the epic battle? I mean, it has a storyline reference and all, but it's getting annoying.
I HATE, HATE, HATE Lego right now!Judging by that script, they had potential for two canister lines(Glatorian and ELs), and a few Titans(That Vehicle and Maybe some of the dinos)!Not to mention that was freaking EPIC WIN!
If Lego sets weren't so bloody good, I would stop buying them .
Of course, Dinosaurs! Saving the best for last in the would-be-2011 storyline. I KNEW there was a secret earth tribe hiding around somewhere... but apperently they are the ones that were plagued and died.
Sounds EPIC. Especially Bio-Dinos. Now I'm really sad that BIONICLE got canceled. And 'tis a shame that the BIONICLE 6 screen treatment was never written...I think it woulda been amazing. -Z-
This would have been an EPIC movie
And A Plague tribe Glatorian!(As in GregF's post one page...2?)

Thank you for posting this wonderful story.
This was a great short story! It's really too bad this wasn't made into a movie. It would be great if this would become a web serial or graphic novel.
A++++
