Remember the Garbage Pail Kids Movie?

And remember how that turned out?

Anyway, can’t wait for the Big League Chew movie to come out.

Novel, TV show, comic book, video game, bubblegum comic… anything could be a source for an intelligent and fleshed out story. A few decades ago, would anyone have imagined that a film as intelligent and successful as Dark Knight could have been inspired by something as “silly” as a kids comic?

Will this be any good? Who knows. But I would never write off a films potential based simply upon it’s source material.

Maybe they will consider a film about the gecko from the GEICO commercials as well.

Personally I am hoping for either a Jolly Green Giant movie, a Keebler Elves movie, or dare I say it… a Pillsbury Doughboy movie!

The Anniversary. Clearly just for the art.

John, i think what bigsampson meant was that Eisner is just capitalizing on the life of Bazooka Joe. See Bazooka Joe lived a long storied life that involved torment, love, heartbreak and misadventures. The story of his eye alone will require 6 peter jackson length films. A movie about bazooka joe can’t be done for profit or increased bubblegum sales, it should only be done for the betterment of mankind by showing us the status of the human condition through Joe’s existentialist life.
