Hong Kong Phooey And Marvin The Martian Live Action - BleedingCool.com - YouTube

 

[Sundowner]

I use to LOVE the Hong Kong Phooey cartoon!

 

[Wes R]

Why does everything have to be live action? People still love animation. Look at the anime import industry, it's booming while our animation industry's stuck in CGI land. Still no matter the format it proves we do like animation.

 

[Angelus Lupus]

I thought Inspector Gadget proved that live-action versions are very hard to do right?

 

[Jet Beetle]

Hong Kong Phooey doesn't work without Scatman.

But yeah - this are some kind answer to Smurfs. What gets me is how all the jokes are the same in every movie.

Watch Test Footage For Eddie Murphy's Live Action HONG KONG PHOOEY Movie | Badass Digest
Thankfully they are just test footage and likely not moving forward as features.

 

[Colin Droidmilk]

The French need an enema too, just look at that live-action Asterix

Desperate brand-grabbing crap

(no fullstops as keyboard damaged by xmas beer spilled all over it)

 

[Nwerke]

Hey! That was AWESOME! They should TOTALLY make full movies, I'd line up! Where'd I leave that Fry 'shut up and take my money' macro...

Love how the cat's CG mouth makes it look less realistic than the cartoon pooch. Migod.

 

[Colin Droidmilk]

Aye, not only that but it makes the cat look horrifying too

What a botch!

I loved the Youtube top comment...Marvin the Martian should only be in his own universe with Duck Dodgers

This I agree with especially with Tia Carrere as the martian princess. Did you see that despite Smurfs being a total dud it's got a sequel?

 

[crabra comander]

I actually didn't mind Smurfs as a mindless kid's flick. Wouldn't buy the BR though. Or pay to see it again. So that is a dud I guess.

 

[YenChih Lin]

I want my 5 min 17 sec back!!! :angry

 

[Werstrooper]

They were both, painful.

Hong Kong Phooey was going ok until the toilet scene. His secret identity was a janitor.

As for Marvin, no kid would think, "this doll just came to life, tried to kill me, and burned the Christmas tree. What fun should we have together?"

I clicked on the link before I read Eddie Murphy was playing Hong Kong, I laughed so hard because thats totally something he would do at his career stage. (Hopefully Beverly Hills Cop 4 will be awesome).

The Marvin clip is a lot less cringe, but I agree with the he's more a side character or main villain at best.

 

[Angelus Lupus]

The only role I've liked Eddie Murphy in recently has been Donkey, everything else seems to be him going way over the top in his acting.

 

[Monkey67]

Once actors start doing things for their kids likes and what they think they would like..its game over man.

Transformers & GI Joe should ever been live action also..both movies sucked some massive wang. hollywood stop killing my childhood, Cartoons are cartoons..i love my old school 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80's toons just the way they were.

 

[Angelus Lupus]

The cold, harsh light of a new format/remake can never live up to the comforting, warm glow of nostalgia.

 

[Michael Bergeron]

I'm not the demographic for this stuff, so I don't care.

If they did go ahead with it my kids would love it.
