Voltron coming to the Big Screen

I was a big fan of Voltron as a kid. The lions merging to form the giant robot that fights for peace, justice, and... uh... the end to giant mutant monsters was always fun to watch. And now, following the success of the Transformers movie they are planning a live action Voltron movie as well. I have got to say that while I have been a fan of the Transformers movie from almost day 1, I have never really felt there was a need for a Voltron movie. I simply do not see it being a good candidate for the Big Screen, because it asks for too many suspensions of disbelief to work. Besides, isn't the more recent Power Rangers basically a live action Voltron with karate thrown in?
