I assume you mean this one, which says exactly the opposite.

munchman92 08-17-2006 07:16 AM

it says this in the interview though

quote:"THR: Using the Oddworld universe?
Lanning: Not necessarily. We've been cooking up other non-Oddworld stuff."

Nate 08-17-2006 07:39 AM

He's probably referring to Citizen Siege there. But the overwhelming theme of the interview is that he wants to use the Oddworld Mythos, as well as their previously created Oddworld IP, to develop other media.

oh i see most of the interview was a bit annoying because mr lanning didnt answer in straight answers so i skipped a bit

speaking of other stuff, can someone tell me what's up with the dog cartoons in TOGG?

Cullen Heath 08-17-2006 04:06 PM

It's a mystery... Nobody knows why those are there.:p

My theory is that they're probably a kind of easter egg from Silvio Aebischer to the rest of OWI. I quite like them actually.

An easter egg in what way? They're not hidden in any OWI products.

Xavier 08-18-2006 09:40 AM

it's the film lorne is working on now, an animation movie featuring those dogs.
he's tired of Oddworld and wants to try something a bit more mainstream

just kidding :p

ziggy 08-18-2006 11:31 AM

I thought you were serious for a second. I couldn't see them make a Dog movie.

Spirrow 08-18-2006 11:41 AM

But he wouldn't want to use the OWI name in the intro titles of other
movies would he? That would not go exactly unnoticed.

An inside joke then. I don't know.

Nothing wrong with that. The League of Gentlemen use their stage name even if they're collaborating on something other than The League of Gentlemen - it's just their flagship series.

I have no preference whether it's an Abe, Much or a Stranger movie. The main thing is that there have to be some vykkers :D

Hope its about Abe, I really don't want it to be about Fangus or even Stranger, I just didn't like the look of the Fangus game.

Fangus looked pretty awesome, but nobody can beat Abe.

munchman92 09-03-2006 11:50 AM

i think there should be an abe and munch film so it could be munch's exodus

Nate 09-03-2006 05:53 PM

Hopefully there will be a Munch's Oddysee film. But not until after there is an Abe film.

skillya_glowi 09-04-2006 08:29 PM

I know, I loved the story of MO and I love Munch, and I love the characters, but the game itself....kinda sucked...

And plus, it would be weird seeing Abe and not knowing where the hell he came from. Unless, of course, you alter the storyline abit...

Nate 09-05-2006 01:53 AM

Well you don't know anything about where Abe has come from in AO, other than the fact that he knows nothing of the world beyond Rupturefarms (and clearly has been there all his life).

ziggy 09-05-2006 08:49 PM

Now I'm hoping the movie just stars Abe, He's just.......so cool, in some way. He's the best representation of oddworld, and I think would be really funny in the movies since he's so goofy.

Xavier 09-06-2006 09:35 AM

yep, that's my oppinion too, Abe as first oddworld character to go to the big screen :)

Zerox 09-06-2006 10:08 AM

Abe IS the main one.
Plus...a movie about a guy trying to protect his farm from rustlers isn't exactly all that interesting. Would work better as a game. 'cept they cancelled that. The fact they cancelled the game also demolishes any chances.

I felt the game was under rated.
anway i dont care about who is starring in the movie but i think it will be Abe he starred in their flagship game and he probably will do the same in the movie.
