Disney Begins Production on Quake! The Animated Movie![]() "I know that animating a gorefest like Quake doesn't quite fall into the tradition of Bambi, Mary Poppins, and The Little Mermaid," admits Eisner, "but our last picture was hardly all sugar and cream. If we managed to make a psychotic, deformed, socially maladjusted imbecile cute, don't you think we'll find a way to get a vore plastered on the walls of six year-olds everywhere?" Adrian Carmack, one of id's artists, expresses admiration for Disney. "Yeah, I've always been a big fan of their stuff. Really influential. That part when Bambi's mom gets blasted. . . I was only six when I saw it, but I still remember saying, 'Way cool.'" ![]() ![]() American McGee has already started making promo levels for the movie. "We're putting together a free shareware episode called 'Tinkerbell's Castle of Gibbage.' Furry rabbits, singing candlesticks, sugarplum fairies (the gibs were really hard to texture on those things--they're nearly microscopic!), they're all there. Tinkerbell's one bad-ass fragmeister!" "We're just tickled pink to be working with such a dedicated and profitable company as id," says Eisner. "The movie will rock your world." Expect to see Quake! The Animated Movie at theaters everywhere in the summer of '98. |
