Fanboys: The movie (What is going on here?)

I’ve heard all the shit going down about the Fanboys movie. You know, the movie that was supposed to be released last year. Well, things haven’t been going well for it development of late. And, all the ‘fanboys’ are feeling like this movie may very well became stinker now that the studio has put so much bull crap into the film.

Why are they so hell bent on making changes to a film that doesn’t have that much in production cost anyway? Even if the movie bombed in the theaters in its original form, it would make the cash back in the DVD sales.

This comic strip sums up what happened to this movie nicely.

What kills me is that some people have seen the original cut of the film before the studio demanded re-cuts. http://www.aintitcool.com/node/35673

They cut out the cancer storyline, which grounded the movie in a serious message, leaving the movie without compassion. So, now these characters go on this adventure for no other reason but for the hell of it. What the hell?

And, this link gives us more details about the changes and the person behind the changes.

If the movie stays in its current form, I will not see it in the theaters. But, I might see it on DVD.
