Eric Powell had an AMA at LOCGSaid him and Blur Studios exhausted every avenue for the movie and it won't be going forward but he's still trying to find other options to get the series adaptedYes, he was also asked what his thoughts were on how the word "Goon" is used these daysHe's fine with it, he's fine with calling fans of the comic Gooners, he's also fine with them being called Jerkoffs
>>153596278That twenty bucks I gave them over a decade ago was all for nothing.
>>153596278Fucking hell that sucks
>>153596278Expected but sad
>>153596278>>153596296Why isn’t Netflix funding this? They got infinite money thanks to Kpop Demon Hunters, what do they have to lose?
>>153596384Are you forgetting two years ago when they gutted their animation department?
>>153596290Honestly they should just release the story reel they did make to show to Hollywood
>>153596400That killed the Bone animated series. Jeff Smith was heartbroken. Bastards.
>>153596278He should pitch it to Amazon: it could be their next big comic book adaptation after The Boys and Invincible.
>>153596536>He should pitch it to AmazonPerfect, racebend all the white characters except the ones that we'll make faggots
>>153596536They're adapting Monstress
I’m only vaguely familiar with this film. Why was it so hard for him to find funding? Trying to stay independent?
>>153597860>We created "proof of concept" footage to show Hollywood the incredible potential of a Goon movie. It was very well received BUT because this movie isn't a sequel or filled with dancing animals we'll need more to bust open the gates and UNLEASH Goon and Franky on Hollywood
>>153596384How much money did that movie about dog sex cost them?
Heh, goon. Like gooning. Like stroking your penis repeatedly to internet pornography. Due to contemporary slang that is what the name of this property sounds like. Goon. Heh heh.
>>153597937God the industry is such absolute dogshit when it's indie or nothing
>>153599767I hate modern internet slang
>>153599800>when it's indie or nothingAnd the chicks for free
>>153597474I wonder if they'll make Maika as much of a cunt as she is in the comic
>>153596549Damn techbros denying us white folks our representation as violent lowlife thugs. Trying to be all politically correct by portraying all the violent meatheads, back-alley knifemen, and shriveled-up whores as blacks and mexicans.
>>153596278Good NEVER GOON
>>153599745chump change, they bought it for cheap since they didn't produce it, Sony did.
>>153596278>not hand drawn>digital slopdon't care
>>153596384>Netflix>making something that appeals to normal straight menPick one.
>>153596278Well that's a damn shame and the series has been directionless since Lords of Misery kinda ended in a wet fart.
>>153596384The days of Netflix dropping money on random shit has been over for a while now. If it's not safe shit or DEI slop they just pass over it.
>>153596278Is anyone really surprised that this got canned? It was in development hell for years.
>>153596278Sad!
>>153604671yeah, and I'd hate to say this, but I don't think the animated version was going to do the comic justice. I would have watched it regardless, but I just don't think it's a property that was going to translate well in the way that it seemed they wanted to do it.
>>153599745that and its got the white woman audience IN THE BAG, so dunno why thathats comparable
