Yeow

IIRC Deku's dad's quirk is conjuring small flames from his fingertips. And Spike always had to use a lighter for his cigs, so it's probably unlikely even though everything else makes sense.

Oh, good: That means I can stop getting my hopes up for a Sly Cooper announcement next year.

So they're saving me the disappointment they do with every E3.

After their Banjo and Shakuhachi act, they somewhat had it coming. E3 is pretty much on its way out anyway.

It would be nice for Nitenty to trample the competition one last time in that case.

we all know venom will win best original song if this was real

woody harrelson as best supporting actor though...

There's going to be...

...C A R N A G E

It was announced on Monday though...

Chicken Little was Dindal's work?!

What the hell happened?!?!?!

@SupahBerry Studio interference. Copypasta'd from Wikipedia:

"In September 2001, director Mark Dindal developed the idea for Chicken Little, with its title character envisioned as an overreacting, doom and gloomy female chicken, that went to summer camp to build confidence so she wouldn't overreact, as well as repair her relationship with her father. At the summer camp, she would uncover a nefarious plot that her camp counselor, who was to be voiced by Penn Jillette, was planning against her hometown."

Dindal pitched it to Eisner (head of Disney at the time), who suggested to make her a boy. Then WDAS (or WD Feature Animation as it was still called back then) got a new studio head (David Stainton), who suggested to change the summer camp story into about saving the town from an alien invasion instead. Cue months of re-writing...

"During the rewriting process, Dindal, along with three credited writers and nine others, threw out twenty-five scenes to improve the character development and add more emotional resonance with the parent-child relationship. Dindal admitted that 'It took us about 2½ years to pretty much get back to where we started... But in the course of that, the story got stronger, more emotional, and funnier, too.'"

Recall the film was made when WDAS was stuck in a hard place (their traditional 2D films had been underperforming/flopping, while Pixar and DreamWorks' CG films were commercially successful. Pixar's contract with Disney was about to expire soon with the release of Cars the following year; and with Chicken Little being WDAS's first CG film, the film became a litmus test to see whether Disney could go it alone with or without them....)

...so there you go.

I had a hunch that would be the case. After seeing people smash the product to bits, I really don't blame him for wanting nothing to do with Disney anymore. (Unless you count Emporers New School)

Hope this film can really bring him into the spotlight this time. Man deserves it.

Pokemon all have a certain fantasy vibe to them. Bringing them into the real world isn't a problem in and of itself, but they still need to maintain the design philosophy they were created with.

That's the problem with most live-action adaptations: They try to force "realism" onto characters that clearly weren't made with that in mind.

Thanks
