[Groop] Groo News from ME

[Chris.Emmett at uk.standardchartered.com]

Hi
I was wondering how Groo would translate to the big screen. (Any way 
Sergio and co. do it is fine by me, of course)

Will it include the copious deaths that are common in a Groo comic, 
especially in frays? One of the things that seems to endear films like 
Shrek to parents is that it is very safe and no-one dies. Personally, I 
prefer the world of Shockheaded Peter.

Will it therefore be an adult cartoon? This would allow full liberty for 
the creators and will probably ensure cult status.

2D or 3D? I think that 3D models wouldn't do justice to Sergio's style of 
drawing as the rendering is just too shiny and perfect. On the other hand, 
I can't imagine anyone animating all the people generally involved in one 
page of Groo. Belleville Rendevouz had a legion of animators (it seemed to 
me anyway) and they had nowhere near that many individuals.
