Questionable Content Movie?!
Kaervak:
Animated/Live action QC would be a little weird. Trying to cast voice actors/live actors to fill the personas we've created in our heads could end up in impressively spectacular failure. With that said, it would be interesting to watch.
JReynolds:
Perhaps someone could put together a LEGO animation of QC, similar to the Eddie Izzard animation linked to.
ChippyD:
Honestly, this would not work as a movie.
Now as a short series for HBO for example, now there's some token material work to be had. At 45-50 minutes a pop, you could very addequetly captures QC and make it work over a 15-25 episode run. Maybe a bit more depending on how much filler material you want to put in.
I view it as a core rule that whenever the source material is extensive in character development, a movie will always fail to please its audience. Where as with a mini-series, you have far more room to get what needs to be done...done.
I could even easily see this shot as an independent series for the web. With the exception of a few sci-fi bits, the comic is set relatively within realistic standards. The roles aren't glamorous, and the locations aren't anything that can't be done in a public setting.
Even characters like Pintsize and Winslow could be done with amateur CGI, or godforbid in this day and age, puppetry. You'd be very surprised at what a low-budget can get you these days in the CGI department. And latex comes cheaper than ever, now that there is less and less demand for it, so far as I can tell.
