Member ShaOW!linDude Posted July 22, 2011 Member Share Posted July 22, 2011 I know there are "sword & sorcery" fans here. Hope you see this as the good news I do. I loved the 1983 rotoscoped animated classic. (I need to find this dvd. I've seen it around but never bothered to score it.) Robert Rodriguez is directing. http://www.superherohype.com/news/articles/167967-sdcc-live-action-fire-and-ice-film-planned Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrator KUNG FU BOB Posted July 23, 2011 Administrator Share Posted July 23, 2011 Wow! Very exciting. This is the first I've heard of it. I missed Dragon Sword's previous thread. I'm a fan of the movie, but even more so of Frank Frazetta. He is my favorite artist of all time. Picasso? Blah. Give me a Frazetta painting anytime. His museum is a little over an hour away from me here in Pennsylvania and I've visited it and been amazed. I even spoke to him on the phone one time about a year before his recent passing. He struck me as a very modest, down-to-Earth guy. Can't wait to see this movie. I loved what Rob did with SIN CITY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel you, bro! Frazetta and Boris Vallejo did some of the most amazing art! I didn't know FF had his own museum! And you actually got to speak with him? COOL!!! BTW: Rodriguez is also planning to helm another SIN CITY film. http://www.superherohype.com/news/articles/167961-sdcc-sin-city-a-dame-to-kill-for-moving-forward Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member TheDenizen Posted July 26, 2011 Member Share Posted July 26, 2011 I liked the idea of the original Fire & Ice, but I was always disappointed in Ralph Bakshi's rotoscoping technique for animation. It seemed to capture real life motion pretty well, but it never looked anything as awesome as a Frazetta painting (same goes for Heavy Metal 2000 which was frankly pathetic compared to Simon Bisley's concept art). A modern day live action flick might be just the thing for it, especially with Rodriguez at the helm. Cautious optimism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
