Troubled Production: Difference between revisions

(update links)
Line 189:
* Family Dog, a [[Steven Spielberg]] produced animated spin-off of ''Amazing Stories'' didn't debut until 1992 seven years after the original "Family Dog" episode of Amazing Stories had aired. Only five episodes of the finished product aired.
* The CGI filim ''Foodfight'', a production of Threshold Entertainment and directed by Lawrence Kasanoff<ref>The producer of, among others, ''[[Mortal Kombat: Annihilation]]''.</ref>, is a peculiar case in which its [[Troubled Production]] is more fascinating than the movie itself. Originally slated for a Christmas 2003 release and reaching a budget of $45 Million, it faced several setbacks and issues, forcing the studio to constantly postpone the film's release.<ref>In fact, the original animation files even went missing in what's claimed to be an act of "corporate espionage."</ref> The movie eventually did see a mainly [[Direct to DVD]] release in 2012, the final product being an utter trainwreck to the surprise of no one.
* ''The Emoji Movie'', a CGI film released in 2017, is a peculiar case as its production coincided with, though not directly responsible for the cancellation of [[Genndy Tartakovsky]]'s planned ''[[Popeye]]'' movie, itself a victim of [[Executive Meddling]] prior to its end. The film in question, already one of the worst animated movies of the year upon release, has also gained notoriety for being a virtual "perfect storm" example of [[Executive Meddling|poor and shoddy corporate decision making]]. This is complete with rushed development and its own share of controversy prior to its release, be it questionable marketing or excessively politicized PR. To say nothing of the scorn heaped upon it even before the movie was finished.
