Questionable Content Movie?!
raoullefere:
I think low-budget is wayyyy underrated. I watched Hogfather this Christmas and was very impressed with what the production team did on a relative shoestring (TV budget as opposed to a motion picture budget). To me, it was just as affective as anything I've seen in the Potter series at putting the viewer in the author's world. So using puppets for Pintsize and Winslow, shot in digital with gear like they used on Hogfather would work. I think it would be rather easy to make them look as 'real' as needed, since they are supposed to be mechanical anyway (meaning jerky movements might be acceptable). Check it out if you're interested http://www.definitionmagazine.com/issue_pdfs/def21/hogfather_in_hd.pdf.
But I wonder if the feel of QC really lends itself to any other media other than a four-six (usually) panel comic strip. I'm afraid that you'd have to choose present one aspect of it at the expense of others. I think ChippyD's suggestion of a miniseries would fly, although I wonder if 25-thirty minute episodes with some cliffhangers might not work better. Conversely, though, I suppose an hour production could really be two half-hours presented concurrently, switching back and forth from one to the other, perhaps with some undercurrent (such as a Pintsize shenanigan) fitted in as well.
BlackBooks:
Knowing the douche-nozzles at Hollywood, they'd probably cast the latest A-list idiots in the roles, and I'd have to sit through 3 hours of Justin Long or Shia "Ass-hat" LaBoeuf as Marten. It's a pity John Cusack is too old. Zach Braff might be able to pull it off, though.

If Paul Rudd was like 15 years younger, it would be him

Am i the only one that thinks it should be an animation, id go for the team that did the spirit with in, I feel its the only way that wouldn't ruin Pintsize.
or if Jeph is up for it, then it could be a flash movie definitely more work but a couple of 5 to 10 minute clips a week would rock he could even setup a Chanel on youtube. (would be great exposure and i am sure ppl would by any DVD collections when those came out i know i would)

Bruce Campbell as Dora's dad.
