Clancy Brown playing The Goon himself just feels like perfection on soooo many levels.
In all honesty I always pictured Brad Garrett doing his voice. That's the voice he has when I read the comments.
@@VinnySmiles01 That's not a bad choice too. I can totally hear it!
I love the Goon but honestly I think it would be better as a series rather then a movie. It has a ton of good stories and arch’s that shouldn’t be skipped over.
Agree 💯
The goal wouldn't be to encompass the entire franchise. Just like a book doesn't contain the whole series.
Let face it, series are shit. A well crafted film would be much better.
You are more than likely right
@@myautobiographyafanfic1413 There are multiple series that are fantastic, and quite a few movies that should have been series. Especially having a streaming giant like Netflix or HBOMax do it, it would be amazing
1000% agreed!!!!!!!!!
God, this sounds like it would have been so much fun. There should be more media adaptations of comic books that aren't from Marvel or DC.
More spawn adaptation would be great
@@1234fivedude I vec athlon goon film wiu be back bd like hellboy meets the untouacbkex
That Test Footage looks so good that it makes me sad this never got made……
There is enough cancelled David Fincher and Guillermo del Toro movies to make a full hour long video on. Great video really well done so far as always.
Well, TBH they would have all sucked. David Fincher has like 2.5 decents movies in his basket...he's a hack, and a failure.
@@kimbaptempura4073 I’m pretty sure you’re the only person with that opinion
@@kimbaptempura4073 ok kimbap tempura
@@kimbaptempura4073 such a loser
I’ve never heard of this film or it’s source material but NOW I want this film to get made more than anything!
Back then when I first heard that Disney acquired 20th Century Fox, I thought it was great. Years later, today, my eyes are wide open and I see the harm that it did to a lot of projects like The Goon.
Yeah the marvel fan in me is happy but at the cost of so much good and interesting stuff. I will forever be curious about what that mega man movie would have been like.
@@pugman9672 you see, I didn’t even know about that. It’s like it was erased.
Would love to see more non traditional comics get films made. Remember, mainstream didn’t care about Ironman, Thor, or Captain America until the movies were made.
To be fair they didn’t care about Thor unless he was with the other two
The Goon is so under-appreciated, really is one of the best comics of all time.
How was this not made? This looked amazing!!! What an absolute shame!
This short was amazing Clancy and Paul bring the Characters to life perfectly.
If it ends up on Netflix it needs to be an animated series not a movie. With different approach to the art style every season. CGI animated, cell animation, photorealistic approach
With Fincher’s connections at Netflix I’d love to see their appraisal of a mini-series approach (like the Haunting series’, or Midnight Mass)
I’d totally forgotten about THE GOON. I must have seen the test footage YEARS ago. I d love to see this finally happen. Must get hold of those collected comics! It looks fantastic.
So basically they wowed studios with their pitch, and the studios went, "Looks great! Would love to see it!"
"So you'll fund it?"
"No."
That's a typical response in pitch meetings.
Sadly in animation.... that happens ALLLLL the time.
I saw wayyy too many projects that never saw the light of day.
When I was working on a project.... at some point I would wait for the project to be on TV or in the Theaters before telling people that I worked on it because tooo often those projects would never be finished or would be delayed and delayed.
Pretty annoying when you tell people you work on a movie that will be in theatre in lest say September.... and then months and months would go by with no movie being released...... and then people would think that you're crazy or you made it up. :(
I would love to see you do an episode on all the cancelled Godzilla films.
I’m sooooo pissed The Goon and Popeye didn’t get released. I wanna see this bad.
A video about Guillermo Del Toro’s ‘At the Mountains of Madness’ would be amazing
I love your channel. I know it isn't exactly what you do, but how about doing an episode on Mission: Impossible 3? That had 6 years of development hell with scripts being developed by Joe Carnahan, Oliver Stone and David Fincher all being tossed out in favor for JJ Abrams. Keep up the good work. I look forward to everything you give us.
Agree, an investigation into all of that would be fascinating.
Didn’t know all that
With David Fincher involved, this is gonna be mental. 👌✊
I love their ad where they're going back-and-forth between different demographics
Very interesting, I never heard of The Goon before, and I don’t pay much attention to awards when it comes to my tastes, but I definitely would have watched it if it had ever been made, great video!
Man, it's always a great day when Supervoid Cinema uploads.
Man…..all these movies that we’ll never ever see……makes me sad seeing what Hollywood COULD have made if the studios were smart. As soon as you said they went to 20th Century Fox in 2019, I knew exactly where that was going.
This could be made into a series on Netflix or HBO max etc.
There's nothing like The Goon out there.
Everybody: "Hellboy. Hellboy is exactly like the Goon. Hellboy, the character with three movies, a few animated movies, and a video game. Hellboy."
Idk Why This Hasn’t Been Pitched As A Series Somewhere.
Long time fan of The Goon. I gave up thinking this would ever come out. I met Powell in the early 2000's at Boston Comic Con. Where I got my Chinatown HC signed. Also my copy of Hulk vs Devil Dinosaur. Where I said to him. That's so awesome how you colored The Goon green. His wife laughed hysterically at that.
Keep this narrator. Love this dude...
The connection of the creators to "love, death and robots" may come in handy. If they are really dedicated to the project, they should ask one of the animation studios to make a story on the goon, or at least the goon universe. Maybe this will get some positive reactions from reviewers and fans to encourage Netflix to invest in it (they had so many attempts at original series and movies, this will totally be up their alley). Let us just hope that because it was first brought to fox, Disney won't suddenly wake up and try to claim IP on it or something
Always felt 'The Goon' would make for a better triple-A story-driven action-adventure co-op video game than a movie. Think a two-player, 3rd person brawler, w/Blur Studios providing quality animated cinematics to tell the story.
With today's 3D graphic engines, you could have cg-quality graphics that transition into gameplay. You could still tell a compelling story in a video game - just look at stuff like Uncharted & Last of Us, just to name two. I just feel like Miller is pushing The Goon too hard into the wrong medium. Once The Goon game is a proven success, you'll have movie studios fighting to make a CGi movie.
Triple A games cost as much as movies unfortunately. They'd be in the same boat.
@@mistermakebelieve - Except, I feel, a Goon video game has the potential to make a lot more money than any Goon movie.
I was thinking that too.
just do a Realtime unreal 5 engine movie and that would be amazing
@@mrabtruse - Or not even a feature length movie. Just a short. That way it could serve as a "proof of concept" for a Goon multiplatform game running on Unreal Engine 5.
There's an alternate dimension where this movie was made... we live in the dimension with the Eternals and Captain Marvel
I'm glad you've reached on this. The Goon definitely deserves it's place on the screen.
Dangnabbit, this film would have been truly terrific. The VO and animation were a special kind of SPOT ON! 👌 And it seems like the writing was all there too! Hopefully Hollywood will find it’s 🏀⚽️ and finish this gem!
I’ve always been intrigued by that character. I would definitely go see it.
I hope this movie gets made one day, my brother is a huge fan of the Goon.
I saw the comic-con poster for this years ago and it got me to seek out the comics and I loved them. I wish this movie could get made - we need more good adult animation that isn’t just constant swearing, pot jokes, grossout, and bad sex jokes.
If you are a fan of the Goon the fucking test footage will kill you with how good/short it is
That test footage looked good
While I was watching those interviews I kept thinking "10 years too early". Hopefully this project can get more interest in today's streaming service market. This passion project sounds ripe for a 12 ep. adult animation series on Netflix, Amazon, or Apple. I hope it gets its time. I wasn't aware how desperately long the animation industry has been itching to make more mature content for mature audiences. Ugh. Shame.
This is why I respect Jeff Frowler.
Not only he can prove himself as a director (Thanks to the Sonic Movie), he really does care for the fans as well when it comes to projects based on already established franchises. You can tell this man really loves doing the things he does.
I swear maybe with the success of the Sonic movie, maybe Jeff and Tim could be given a second chance to make this film and honestly we need more adult animated films that aren't comedies.
Btw another fact... Blur Studios created the CGI opening for Shadow the Hedgehog
Hopefully with how well Sonic did he can get the Goon off the ground.
This is why I love blur studios
They're making cool animated projects with action and humor put into it while having an edge.
Sonic 2 looks tight from what I've seen in the trailer and probably the coolest looking animated movie (its live action/animated.) made for families since rango. and I can't wait to see it.
I hope they get the rights to the goon back, from fox so they can make it happen.
I want more action comedy animated movies that have an edge to them.
@@goldylover1000 If so... THAN LETS GOOOO!
I'd rather see a game made by a talented studio with that animation and David Fincher over seeing the story. Test footage looks great and actually makes me want to play a game more then watch a movie.
I love this channel for the way it brings all these otherwise obscured or forgotten stories to light in an engaging way, though almost each video is accompanied by a pang of sadness related to the number of passion projects that are needlessly cut down.
I remember watching the trailer back in high school and I was so excited for it, now I realized it was never released :'(
I love good CGI films, but...
I always thought The Goon would look better on the big screen with a Sam n' Max - Sin City hybrid look.
Don't know which method would be the more expensive to make though!
Never knew about “the goon”.. gonna pick up a couple paper backs 👍🏾
Not familiar with The Goon, but I enjoyed a lot Love, Death and Robots, so movie of this character with Tim Miller and David Fincher's involvement would be amazing. The footage showed here looks pretty good. Excellent video. I hope you will release more in soon time because your work is simply amazing.
PD: What happened to the Twitter account???
Take the $400,000 donated, extend the footage already made into a short film and have it play before the next Fincher or Tim Miller film in cinemas. Perhaps that could lead to a 2-D, animated series for Netflix or Shudder etc, if nothing else.
Thanks for showing this. This is the first time I'm hearing about The Goon and now I really want to read the comics.
I was a drop-in-the-bucket backer of the Kickstarter for The Goon, and was aware of most of the information this video gives, already...but I'm happy to have learned a few new tidbits.
This was very well put-together, and hopefully has helped inform people who were not aware of any of it, before.
I do have to say, I'm a little confused as to why there isn't more solid good news on this, already.
Netflix has quite literally become a meme/trope, for throwing money at pretty much anything.
Beyond just "Love, Death & Robots", they have a number of other successful animated series under their belts, including very adult-oriented stuff like "Castlevania".
They seem to have been doing pretty well with animated features, too.
I think I'm in the camp, at this point, that I'd rather see a Goon series than just a single film...but either way, it feels like the iron is pretty hot, and I hope someone is buzzing in the appropriate ears.
Amazon also seems to be willing to part with cash for geekdom-friendly properties...a great example being "The Boys", which is highly subversive and VERY adult, while still comic-based.
Hell, even Disney...while they certainly have more than their fair share of flaws and drama...also owns Hulu, which is featuring some solid work in a similar vein.
Point being...the time is now.
So I hope every single fan of this property is blowing up whoever they can on Twitter and wherever else to get this thing made a reality.
This is one of my favorite channels, can't wait to watch this one!
I really hope it gets greenlit to Netflix or maybe another streaming service like Amazon because we're coming up on 10 years since this was announced as a Kickstarter.
And hopefully Paul and Clancy are still available.
Make this movie already, GOON, GOON GOON! Executives, it never ceases to amaze me how much crap gets made while a cool movie concept like THE GOON doesn't, crazy really...
It will take a genius director and producer to pull this off.
I just gotta say I love your guy's work and This video really made my day. I've been a big fan of the Goon comics and when I heard about the plans of an animated movie I was excited but then disappointed and otherwise curious when I heard its cancellation. Glad to see I'm not the only one who thinks this and I appreciate hearing the developments this project went through.
Youch!! Just the thumbnail and a few words I could skim on them was like a slap to the face. I've only read the first volume of Goon, and it was only after learning of this film production, and that was over a decade ago! Man, do I want this film to get made :(
Fincher has been signed to a bunch of projects that never seem to get up and running including Torso, Rendezvous with Rama and Hard Boiled among others.
The cancelled Fincher/Morgan Freeman Rama project still stings.
I never heard of this comic, but the concept and that test footage looks cool. I think now it could be possible to get this funded. There are so many comic book adaptations nowadays. If a movie's not possible I could see a series happening.
The ONLY David Fincher film that matters.
I never heard of this series but after watching this video I'm already in love with it. I'm sure mainstream audiences would feel the same if given the chance.
the project has allegedly now gotten Netflix to bring it to the stream platform as a film in the future, also with the help of David Fincher and Tim Miller!
Glad to see you're doing well thanks for making this didn't know anything about the goon
Been a Goon fan since 07 - a massive Hollywood franchise is WAY overdue.
My autographed poster is framed on my wall and my Kickstarter tee is in my drawer. Knife to the eye! Good times.
This movie just popped in my head again after another few years of waiting. Still holding out hope something gets made
Great synopsis of the the road to The Goon. It was nice to check in on this project which I am still looking forward to. Hopefully Netflix will take the plunge and greenlight this soon!
Great video. This has become one of my favorite channels recently. Can you do a Development Hell video on WB's Akira remake? There is a lot of interesting info about that project.
New to the goon, huge fan of Eric Powell’s art and story in the Hillbilly, the goon is right up my alley, would love to see this developed maybe better as a prime series or Netflix
I never heard that this was happening and was fascinated by its development until I heard it was happening at fox
Damn shame, it really sounded like it had a chance to be great
Anyone who wonders why there aren't more original ideas coming out of hollywood should watch this video.
Easily my favorite comic book series. I hope we get this movie some day.
All I remember was that 3d footage test a while back, with Clancy Brown and Paul Giamatti. And had only one thought when watching it:
More. More of that pair, as those characters. Follow the comic.
...Now I'm wondering who some of the other characters should have their voice cast for...
Such a shame Tim doesn't get more clout. He's a true creative
I will forever regret being unemployed the entire time the Kickstarter was going on.
So soft update, there is still hope for it at Netflix as of July
I’ve been waiting for this movie for like a decade. I remember an article in a paper talking about someone wanting to make an animated, violent stylized movie called the goon. It may have even been more than 10 years ago. This thing is definitely and development tell if it’s been developing for that long.
This is great. Thanks for sharing this with us. I was one of the backers. We all got our incentives which is fine. It's great to hear that you got the 85 minute animatic. That's great. We love to hear this but, we were actually told we were going to see it. We really would love to see it.
As a campaign contributor, this one's gonna make me cry, isn't it?
I was a backer on the Kickstarter and I'm still holding out hope we'll see the movie someday
Projects like this, The Mouse Guard and others, are some of the saddest casualties of the Disney/Fox buy out
I had no idea about this project!!! I'd love to hear more about Fincher's lost projects!!! Great video, thanx!!!
The Goon and Frankie, the Batman and Robin of the Zombie apocalypse. Please, please, please get it made before I leave this world.
Never heard of this character before but I'm definitely gonna check out the books. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.
I'm Hoping Netflix For Once Gives This Movie Actual Justice.
I hope it comes together someday. Thank you for this great video!
Back when people listened to what fans wanted Instead of hating on them
I didn't know this was missing in my life nor it's existence until just now.
Another home run! Thank you
Love your videos man! Could you do one on Kubrick’s Napoleon? I think that would’ve been one of the greatest films of all time considering all the prep work Kubrick did for the film and the scale of the enormous battle sequences.
first time hearing about the Goon. great video. thank you
I miss reading Goon comics in the Powell's coffee shop. Frankie is the best version of how I used to be.
Audit the Audit has really changed
To me, "The Goon" is like an amalgam of Slip Mahoney, 1930s Popeye, Rondo Hatton, The Punisher, and Judge Dredd. Netflix would do right by the creators of "The Goon" to pick it up as a series and run with it. Thanks Eric Powell, David Fincher and company.
Been collecting the comics since I was a kid.
I made a game that was inspired by some of the panels in the comic where The Goon is walking around the bottom of the ocean in a diving suit.
The fact that we never got this movie, still kills me. I hope they figure it out someday.
4:40 MMM! perfect voices for the characters imo!
I really hope this comes out man!
Judge Dredd or 2000AD comics are my best comics ever, mainly because of the fond memories I have collecting them when I was young. However recently I picked up Invincible and I had a blast with it. It's fun, violent and very funny at times but The Goon I've never read. Looks like a comic that would be right up my ally so I'll be purchasing for sure. I hope you can get them in graphic novel form. Dont want to buy all the individual comics
I never heard of the Goon until now--Love the concept cannot wait to see the full story.
With the comic book movies surge,Deadpool,sausage party and hit-monkey out I definitely this will come out
It can happen, IT CAN HAPPEN!!!
