Stop making new threads.

next halloween, someone should throw a marathon consisting of this and the hottie and the nottie

>>2361216

To be expected. Movie was fucking horrendous.

This movie should be used as a stocking stuffer for someone you really hate.

"Hey whats this? Delgo? What did i ever do to you man? :( "

>If you figure there were five screenings a day, and assume ticket prices are about $8, that comes out to two people in the theater per showing.

ololol

>1 Delgo
>2 P2
>3 Major League: Back to the Minors
>4 The Real Cancun
>5 College
>6 The Adventures of Pluto Nash
>7 All Dogs Go to Heaven 2
>8 Deception
>9 I Dreamed of Africa
>10 Teacher's Pet

I'm surprised Jumper didn't make that list.

i will rage HARD, if i see some furry faggots doing some fanart, or Delgo fan Original character.

>>2361285

Give it a week.

>>2361279
Teacher's Pet is a good movie.

get a hooker, go to a showing of delgo
no one will catch you

>>2361313
a master plan

>>2361313
I'm already paying for a hooker and now you expect me to pay for tickets to a movie?! Are you out of your damn mind!

>>2361324

Better than paying for a hotel room.

>>2361216
good loard, the voice talent is all over the place. i was following it along (more or less) until I hit "Kelly Ripa".
WTF? Who let her in here? Why is she in a booth? What? Really?! Fuck, whatever...I'm outta here.

the worst part about that link to yahoo...

I was scared for a sec because I thought it was traditional animation, and that this would be used as more evidence that 2D animation sucks.

>>2361349

>more evidence that 2D animation sucks.

I'd rather watch 2D animation movies than watch shit like Delgo.

I feel bad for Delgo. The director started working on his vision ten years ago and worse luck followed him than the guy who tried to direct Don Quixote (forget his name at the moment).

I mean...his main lead died when they were almost done. They had to keep updating the animation. And now his movie won't reach $2 million. Laugh all you want at Delgo...I though will mourn for it.

>>2361346
Finally, some stereotypes.

>>2361346
That nigger shouldn't go to jail. He should go to hell

>>2361376

It's Terry Gilliam, dude. 'The Man Who Killed Don Quixote' has been in various stages of development hell for about 15 years. They even got as far as filming a few scenes (with Johnny Depp, no less) but it will never get made.

This is why I love Cartoon Brew:

"Moments like this really make one pause and reflect. What is the world coming to when an animated film with the voices of Freddie Prinze Jr., Jennifer Love Hewitt, Chris Kattan, Anne Bancroft, Eric Idle, Val Kilmer, Lou Gossett Jr, Malcolm McDowell, Michael Clarke Duncan, Burt Reynolds and Kelly Ripa isn’t a box office blockbuster? A story that makes sense and visuals that don’t make you want to heave are quaint touches, but the filmmakers behind Delgo understood where it really counted: celebrity voice actors. They hired every B- and C-list actor this side of Dancing With the Stars and somehow still failed. You know the recession is affecting Americans deeply when they no longer want to see Chris Kattan and Kelly Ripa voicing their CG characters."

>>2361389
there's a crazy documentary about the making of Don Quixote. when your unfinished epic movie gets its own documentary, you know you've (not) made it.

>>2361376

Don't you feel sorry for that sonuvabitch.

He was not a young visionary, he is a shitty businessman.

http://www.digitalmediafx.com/Interviews/marc-adler.html

He already worked in "Business Solutions". Ten years of production is not the result of sweat and tears. It's laziness.

Toy Story cost $35 million to make.

In 1995.

Delgo : $40 Million and ten years.

>>2361216
>The raunchy teen sex comedy "College" and the thriller "Deception," starring Hugh Jackson and Ewan MacGregor,
>Hugh Jackson
=D

I don't care how long this took to make, it looks like shit.

God, those creature are disgusting looking. Just what were they thinking? No, seriously. It's like some pervert who likes human-lizard hybrids made this.

>>2361428
>Delgo : $40 Million and ten years.
Holy shit, 40 million and it looks like this? He should've just started small and worked his way up. At least that way, he could have known that he sucks while only spending a fraction of the cost.

hahahahah
look at those characters goddamn
they look hideous
and check out those "award captions" at the bottom

I do feel kind of sorry for Delgo. I will shed one tear.

>>2361376

dude, it looks like ass
nobody would want to see a movie with characters like that

This was in Theaters?! I thought it was a direct to DVD movie.

lol Hugh Jackson

ITS JACKMAN YOU BASTARD AND HE WAS WOLVERINE AND LOVES MUSICALS

Jar Jar got his own movie?

>22 Grandma's Boy

:(

>>2361279
Hey, how you doing there, Pluto Nash?

Yeah, I know, I hear Eddie Murphy's career being flushed down the toilet, drowning, shit and all.

It's funny, if you go to their webiste Delgo.com they make it out to be a godsend. Especially that little behind the scenes video, all the voice actors are like YOU GOTTA SEE THIS FILM ITS CLASSIC. Made me laugh.

>>2361389
Never say never. They start shooting (again) next year.

http://www.worstpreviews.com/headline.php?id=11002

>>2361764
I saw it at the theater. During the movie a mom, a kid, and a grandma walked out during the masturbation scene. I laugh about it to this day.

I just saw the trailer
http://www.apple.com/trailers/independent/delgo/

Looks pretty cliched.

>>2361785
WE SHOULD GO SEE THIS MOVIE WITH OUR GRANDMA.

>>2361767

Eddie Murphy has more money and credibility than you could ever imagine.

>>2361788
eddie murphy once gave me a hug because he saw me crying

I can't fap to these character designs.

And I can fap to a lot of things.

>>2361802
Oddly enough this was one of the first things I thought too.

>>2361788
No, I'm just saying it's sad that it failed, because I liked that movie. It had style and hijinks... and well, lots of innuendo.

Wasn't the worst opening ever Zzzyzyzyzyz or something, where only the actors themselves went to?

>>2361771
>Especially that little behind the scenes video, all the voice actors are like YOU GOTTA SEE THIS FILM ITS CLASSIC. Made me laugh.
Made me feel bad. =( Those poor actors...!

>>2361387
>Perry will also have a cameo appearance in the movie Star Trek, which will open on May 8, 2009.
>Tyler Perry appears as the head of Starfleet Academy.

>>2361786

Not to mention the CG looks early nineties. Brings up memories of Roughnecks, Reboot and the cutscenes from Planescape Torment.

There have been a shitload of completely forgettable 3D movies this year.

>>2361812

hahahahaha

>>2361823
>Brings up memories of Roughnecks, Reboot
How is that a bad thing?

Advertising is everything. No advertising means no return.

Also the movie looks like complete shit.

>>2361835

it looks like shit

>>2361823
Didn't Roughneck have AMAZING CG animation. Like it still looks great after all these years? I could be wrong though since I haven't seen it in forever.

Maaan. That is some cliche stuff.

>>2361854
In its day it did,today it looks fucking aweful

>>2361854

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jg-Qs-M6WyI

Hey, still doesn't look all that bad.

I never even heard of this, and I'm a furry (you'd think their circlejerk clique would at least mention this flick ONCE, or at least do a rule 34).

Never even heard of it til now.

So where the fuck was the advertising for this?

>Never heard of Delgo? Well, it'll be a household word come Christmas 2004 - at least if Atlanta's Fathom Studios has anything to do about it. If all goes according to plan, Fathom's Delgo will challenge Hollywood's big animation houses (like Pixar) in the arena of CGI-animated feature films.

>Fathom hopes Delgo will be the beginning of a franchise that will include sequels, prequels and a variety of spin-off stories in every medium from film to books. There are also plans for all sorts of action figures, toys, kids' clothing - pretty much anything a fan could think of (and probably more).

>>2362130

>The movie was scripted as the first film of a potential trilogy.

>Freestyle Releasing has submitted Delgo as its entry for Best Animated Feature at the Academy Awards.

>>2362130
power to the people!

Any good streams of it? I'll decide for myself just how horrible it is.

>>2362130
>>2362135
Good lord, what the fuck

>>2362130

such high ambitions

dashed olol

their mistake was competing with pixar

their mistake was making a shitty film.

I honestly feel so sorry for the guys... :/ You can tell they did put a lot into it even if its a bit cruddy, and it looks like they had things riding on its success... And it tanked.

;___;

>>2362169
There was a live stream on /co/, but you missed it.

>>2361785
Explain anon

threads like this make me feel bad

I feel sorry for them in a way.

But they were obviously overly ambitious. That's what makes it funny. Were they really this clueless?

i couldnt even finish watching the trailer, i pity the 2 people per screening that endured the whole movie

>>2362438
They paid for it, that doesn't mean they didn't leave the theatre 5 minutes into the movie.

"Fathom Studios made a highly progressive move by opening themselves up to scrutiny from the outside. They posted their progress on-line over a number of years, and not in the form of sanitized press releases or occasional images. They were actually using their site to post dailies, rough footage, fragments of animation as they were being scrutinized, polished, and reworked. This was a first for any active studio production."

I have never heard of Delgo until i saw this thread here, ever

I thought that was really funny. Looked awful, in every way. Who was the idiot that thought it would be a good idea not to release this on anything but discount bargain bin dvd format?

TWO PEOPLE PER SCREENING!

Wow, that is an achievement!

!!!TWO!!! PEOPLE PER SCREENING.

I just can't get over that.

who the fuck designed the lizard thing characters? not even furries like scalies

Delgo? more like Failgo

>>2362498
fry.jpg

>>2361279
didn't Jumper have ads and promotion and backing and funding and star power? why would it be on the list of the worst grossing movies ever?

they should make a movie about the making of delgo and its release, it will captivate critics with its non conventional sad ending

>>2361818

And he's going to do it in drag.

well at least the guy made his movie, he can now die in peace

>>2361809
that movie was called, I believe, Zzyzx Road. It had Katherine Heigl in it. It is odd that this movie doesn't seem to be anywhere on that list of shite movies.

>>2362562
It's a list of the worst wide release openings. Zyzzyx Road was only shown in one theater.

>>2362576
wtf?

Budget
$2,000,000 (estimated)

Opening Weekend
$20 (USA) (26 February 2006) (1 Screen)

Gross
$30 (USA) ( 2006)

>>2362321

Delusions of grandeur wat

well after reading about this massive flop now im curious and maybe i will go see it, do you think they will remove it from all the theaters before the next weekend?

I usually see movies in the afternoon every week, and there's often just 3-5 people in the theatre no matter what movie it is.

Most people go to the movies in the evening and are likely going to see whatever movie was marketed well. Delgo has done fuck all in the way of advertising, and so it makes sense that they'd get the attendance of an indie movie.

>>2362130
AHAHA

>>2361216

Is the creature on the right supposed to be extremely gay-looking or is my gaydar not functioning?

>>2362711
I can't even tell what gender its meant to be

you're all spoiled, By new technology

>>2362711
>>2362726
It's the character voiced by Chris Kattan, if that means anything.

TEN! FUCKING!! YEARS!!!

You all go on about the art and how it's so cliche, but it's not at all. If Delgo were trying to emulate pixar it would have jokes, it would have interesting characters and it would have heart racing action. Delgo has none of that, so all of you calling it a cliche can go fuck yourselves.

>>2362772
>A teenaged boy, Delgo (voice of Freddie Prinze Jr.), of the terrestrial Lokni people on the alien planet Jhamora, and Princess Kyla (voice of Jennifer Love Hewitt), of the winged Nohrin occupiers, fall in love and save both societies from would-be conqueror Sedessa (voice of Anne Bancroft), exiled sister of the Nohrin King Zahn (voice of Louis Gossett, Jr.).
You're right, this really sound like a unique and well-crafted story.

Holy fucking god, this is the best thread ever.

Though this movie may be misunderstood now, I'm sure our children's generation will be able to truly make it a part of Americana.

It'll be like Coca-Cola and mom's warm apple pie.

What the fuck id Delgo looks like Belgo.

>>2361751
It won some obscure Brazilian animation festival, and the trailers are literally using that and only that as the reason to see it.

>>2362800
Your moms warm pussy.

>>2362830
BR?

lol

To paraphrase Mark Kermode:

Your life may suck, but at least you can wake up in the morning knowing you didn't spend ten years making Delgo.

I have never heard of Delgo before in my life, but I'm literally crying with laughter at some of the posts in this thread.

i held this movie up my ass for 2 god damn years...

why should i be surprised that it turns out to be a piece of shit.

wonder what kind of box office it would do if it had a marketing budget. it would prove people would see shit just from the marketing alone.

>>To paraphrase Mark Kermode:

>>Your life may suck, but at least you can wake up in the morning knowing you didn't spend ten years making Delgo.

In college I had a free DOOM poster that I got at an early free screening, and I would wake up and go, "at least today cant be as bad as DOOM was"

Freestyle Releasing has submitted Delgo as its entry for Best Animated Feature at the Academy Awards


:3

>>2363360
It'll win because no one went to see it.

>>2362457

posting your work online daily means that the production team probably circlejerk about this movie on some forum and got stroked by 5 posters who frequented it. this is a common thing when doing indie projects.. the team just takes forever to do anything because they waste all their time discussing/defending it online.

>>2362093
>I'm a furry
Did I just got trolled?

what?

http://www.megavideo.com/?v=DQW5U6AS

Oh lawdz.

the main problem here is that the characters look hideous.
they look like they're from some obscure lame bargain bin game and it destroys and credibility the movie may have.

>>2363578
Watching a couple of minutes of the film reveals the script is as bad you'd expect it to be, it really had no credibility to begin with.

>>2363556

Sorry, but a few minutes of Chris Kattan is a few minutes too many. Had to turn it off.

>>2363597

By the time the viewer knows the script is bad, he already paid the ticket.
Nobody would want to even pay the ticket with the poster sporting those hideous character designs.

>>2361216

The green dudes kind of look like evolved sauropods.
