If your most anticipated film isn’t the classic Hasbro’s board game to movie adaptation Candyland, then you must not be on a sugar high like the people behind the film.
EW spoke with writerJonathan Aibel who, along with Glenn Berger, have been working on the script for a Candyland film and here is how he described the film:
We envision it as Lord of The Rings, but set in a world of candy… We don’t see it as a movie based on a board game, although it has characters from that world and takes the idea of people finding themselves in a world that happens to be made entirely of candy where there are huge battles going on… We are going for real comedy, real action, and real emotions at stake.
Ummm WTF!!!! I don’t know if he is being serious or not but this has epic failure written all over it. Why the studio is pumping money into this is beyond me. I have never been a fan of the board game to film move that has been going on in Hollywood recently but it needs to stop right away. We already know that Battleship will be able an alien attack which could be fine, but Candyland as a Lord of the Rings type film??? Give me a freakin break!
Do you guys think this is just as ridiculous?
