DISQUS

Film School Rejects: The Rock as Race Bannon, Zac Efron as Jonny Quest?

    Fickman brings cheese factor to Jonny Quest? How is that not redundant?

    You want cheese? See The Venture Brothers on adult swim. Sadly it's in between seasons, but after watching that, I couldn't EVER take a live-action Jonny Quest seriously. If you haven't seen it, Venture Bros brilliantly parodies Jonny Quest specifically, and any other cartoon they can think of. The Scooby-Doo episode had me falling out my chair.

    Now how could we even hope for any live action version to top the awesomeness that was Johnny Quest.

    I agree with DMuff!!!! A cartoon that was somewhat ahead of its time!

    P.s. Race was not a pedofile. No need to make that implication.

    You're right, definitely no need - Harvey Birdman already did that for us.

    Hmm, Dwayne would be a good Race Bannon, but getting good script and filling the other characters would be a major stumbling block.
  • dragonmum · 9 months ago
    Dwayne could pull it off, sure, but I can't handle Zac Efron as Jonny. Isn't he too old to even look the part, much less play it?

    Oh and before I forget - I thought Reefer Madness: the Musical was hilarious. Does that make me a bad person?

    Amen, brother. "The Venture Brothers" is the most brilliant parody of "Jonny Quest" (and "The Hardy Boys") yet.

    I also liked "Reefer Madness: The Movie Musical," but mostly because of Alan Cumming. He's just plain awesome.

    In terms of sheer hilarity, however, the original 1936 "Reefer Madness" wins out every time.

    Oh, absolutely - my friends & I like to watch it now, and point out just which drugs these kids were actually on. lol
