Oddworld Inhabitants is working on a feature film!!!
 
And Raymond Swanland is still working for them!!!

:

As we enter the new year, most of my time continues to be occupied with work on the first Oddworld feature film. Not much can be said about that at this point, but I have a feeling this coming year will be even more fruitful than the last.

Hurray an oddworld movie at last!!! :D So if it is about a character already revealed who do you think will be the character in the movie? Well if it isnt a new character I think it should be stranger.

Slig outlaw 12-24-2005 10:56 AM

To think about it they might have a game for the movie.

Cullen Heath 12-24-2005 10:58 AM

No, they have already made games, so think they will make the movie from one of the games.

Xavier 12-24-2005 11:08 AM

I have to admit I've allready put Raymond's art on TOGG...
but it's only because I've once got a request to not post inhabitants site on this forum

Cullen Heath 12-24-2005 12:05 PM

Xavier, how come you didnt tell us that you got those 2 Steef pictures from his wesite? Tsk, tsk, tsk.:nonono:

Abe16 12-24-2005 12:15 PM

Oh god, this is just awesome. Oddworld is in the werks!

Nepharski 12-24-2005 12:21 PM

Wahoo! Boo-yah!

*Does a dance.*

Nath 12-24-2005 12:23 PM

AMEN.

After all this long, long waiting, we at last have something which we can grip our teeth into and drool over. This film is gonna be ficking incredible no matter who the star is, whether it be Abe, Munch, Stranger, all three or whoever.

Cullen Heath 12-24-2005 12:47 PM

^^^Agreed on the exelentness of this film, no matter who the star is.
Although, I would really prefer Abe & Munch!

Xavier 12-24-2005 12:58 PM

I think it will only be Abe...
or maybe Lorne want to experiment a bit before launching the quintology saga

Cullen Heath 12-24-2005 01:00 PM

I dont care, as long as Abe is in it it will be the best movie ever created!
Although I would much rather prefer Abe AND Munch......

Software Bug 12-24-2005 01:56 PM

jap agreeing with cullen that a movie with abe a good movie...
but a movie with abe AND munch will be beter:p

metroixer 12-24-2005 02:01 PM

Squeek! Give me Squeek! Or even Fangus! One of those two!

Cullen Heath 12-24-2005 02:01 PM

YEAH, YEAH!
-----------ABE & MUNCH!-------------

Thats what Im talkin about, Tim!

Oddish 12-24-2005 02:07 PM

It's wise to say that the movie is going to be based on Abe. He's the first quintology hero, and he has a depthy more epic story than Stranger.

Does anyone remember this image being right next to a Stranger art peice which appeared in an art book, someone suggested it could of been from SW. It was a while ago.

Dave 12-24-2005 02:14 PM

I would prefer a movie version of Abe's Oddysee + Exoddus.
I don't read much OW news (that's about to change), but didn't both Squeek and Fangus get canceled altogether? Why would they be made the stars of their own movie before the already established heroes?
To me, it makes sense to movify AO/AE, MO (maybe ...), and SW before starting up movies for new characters. Even if OWI only makes one Oddworld Movie before introducing characters... meh. Just me.

Yeah, that was in Spectrum and on a different page to the Stranger's Wrath piece. Just a piece of work he submitted that got accepted - I don't think it has any connection to Stranger's Wrath.

I really think, and hope, it will be the original Soulstorm/Abe story.

Xavier 12-24-2005 02:18 PM

I just want the first film to be either Abe (Oddysee+Exoddus)
Or then a non quintology hero, I doubt it will be stranger since it sold so bad.


Oddish it was in the spectrum, and I believe I've allways stated that it was some personal work of Raymond

metroixer 12-24-2005 02:19 PM

Yes I would also love a Abe's Exoddus movie also :D. Wonder what soundtracks they will use for the movie....

Oh, I would love an Abe, Soulstorm/Exoddus kind of movie too.

That's not a creature, that's the Song Engine which is described in The Art of Oddworld Inhabitants. It's a musical instrument that harnesses nature to welcome friends and ward off enemies.

Cullen Heath 12-24-2005 03:17 PM

Short but sweet.
And what about the one that looks like a Clakker in the other picture? (you will have to go on his website.)

Oddish 12-24-2005 03:20 PM

Cullan, that is supposed to look like a Gabbit. It's called "Ma Spa" It's where Gabbits use to hang around.

Cullen Heath 12-24-2005 03:25 PM

A Gabbit!
What, that looks exactly like a Clakker.
