http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-v ... rks-576490 This has got to be the best news I've had in a long time! Well, maybe after the news of the publication of my story. I'm already ready for it to come out! I hope it's as good as the cartoon was. Well, we'll wait and see...

It'll end badly. There's no good reason to take a cartoon that dated and try to make it into a movie and expect much in box office returns. Maybe a direct-to-DVD release?

CP was a fun show to some extent, but it was full of propaganda. I got tired of watching it after a while.

^^ Agreed... It was a fun show, but it came out around the same time as Woodsy the Owl and Smokey the Bear... It was pure environmental propaganda, which is fine (I loved the show!), but I doubt it'll translate into a good movie today
