I dont want to start a flamewar here, I just want some answers regarding on a project that is from John K. I was looking at his page, and it mentioned that he had plans on doing a feature of He-hog. Does anyone know how long he's been trying to do this? And is it going to be a hand-drawn animated feature?

Is it like the baby of He-Man and Hoggish Greedly?

At first I didn't realize I needed all this stuff...

It's probably John K.'s penis.

It was a movie idea that was pitched. More information can be found here http://johnkstuff.blogspot.com/2010/07/who-wants-to-see-he-hog-movie.html

At least one person was willing to answer my question, while you guys just joked around. Sheesh. Either way, the blog post about He-hog looks interesting. Even though there's the chance this may not get made it does look interesting to say the least. Since I'm into the superhero parodies.

Anyone else know anything about it other than a pitch?

JOHN K. FANBOY TO THE RESCUE

John K. pitched He-Hog to Dreamworks Animation a few years back. No, I'm serious. It didn't go so well and he made a blog entry mocking them.

http://johnkstuff.blogspot.com/2009/07/ideas-arenas-modern-way-to-write.html

I think he could've bypassed this system. Megamind and How To Train Your Dragon did. There were even some films that didn't bypass the system that were still pretty good (Madagascar, Shrek).

Oh wait, this is John K.

The freakiest part of all is that John K. didn't contact Dreamworks. They contacted him.

I think he should've made the best of the situation and tried to make a movie, even if it goes against his integrity. His career is already LONG dead. He has nothing to lose, and everything to gain.

Eediot. Talented eediot.

...

THAT'S why there was a machette statue of one of the characters! I was wondering why he would make one of those for another 2D series!

John: "Dream Works? The ones who only work in CG with virtual computer models that only adhere to the limited restraints of the riggers and morphs put onto them and then only animate based on naturalistic movement? That's the PERFECT avenue for my style of only 2D, hand-drawn, Clampett-style characters with infinite squash-and-stretch that can move like freakin' maniacs! A-DUUUUHHH!"

[up] They contacted him, not the other way around. I think it was worth a shot since his career is already over.

Here's the short that it originates from. I could be wrong about this but I think He-hog was originally convinced as a tv show(hence the reason why some parts of the video are unfinished).

Either way, I have a hunch John would want to do a He-hog feature with 2D with some CG aspects. He has worked with CG before since his "I miss you" music video had a CG jimmy. Even posted some footage of George Liquor mowing a CG lawnmower.

The CG Jimmy was terrible, and I assume/hope it was intentionally so.

Eh, nowadays if John K. made a bad stuff it's always "intentionally so".

Kinda like how Tommy Wiseau excused The Room as an actual parody.
