No, the movie was not stolen or deleted in 2002. No, there is no movie that was lost that still needs to be found. They only had about 7 minutes of animation completed before it was scrapped and rehauled entirely around late 2004. There are reports of the FBI investigating a "break-in" in late 2002, however whatever was reported to be stolen wasn't actually gone. The same animation would keep being shown to investors even as late as 2005 and every model was still in the servers around that time as well. Nothing ever actually went missing, they still had everything even by the very end. Confused? Watch the documentary. kzread.info/dash/bejne/qpt2sZucY7qxeaw.html

Hoodwinked has a better and more unique idea for a plot than this movie ever had, and it also executes on it very well. This looks like it would have decent slapstick unlike the final version, but the plot itself was pretty similar, and it is a way bigger problem with the movie than the awful looking animation and lighting. There is no such thing as a bad idea, only bad execution, and the Brand X idea is actually pretty cool and topical even today thanks to Twitter, about how a colourful design is important to our enjoyment of a product and how the corporate takes even colourful marketing away from us. But the execution of the final movie is so strange that to make it good you can't just reanimate it and change sone scenes, you need to return to the idea stage and only keep the broad strokes.

The movie was nowhere near 60% complete by 2003, it was just 7 minutes of animation, a few tests and a shit ton of assets. If I had to guess, you're citing the IGN article from 2003, which was just flat out wrong, likely because they got the information from Threshold which was kinda notorious for lying about the movie's progress. I mean in 2010 Larry said that the movie needs "another year to be finished" even though it was finished two years before he even said that. Larry also did not delete the footage, see my pinned comment. As for "several different animation softwares," they only used two, that being Lightwave from 2000-2005 and Maya from 2005-2008.

I’m deeply disappointed and frustrated at Lawrence Kasanoff (the director of Foodfight), this original version looked infinitely better than the disastrous version that we eventually got. For the animation being aged, it had a lot of life and it was very cartoony like something out of Looney Tunes and Tex Avery. When I heard that this version was supposedly stolen in a “act of corporate espionage,” I instantly called bullshit on those claims. I think he was disappointed with the animation and scrapped the footage himself, and then he forced the animation team to go full motion capture. This guy doesn’t understand squat about motion capture, especially when it was in the 90s and 2000s. The whole process was very complex and very intricate to pull off, and that goes for early CG shows that did it like that like for example Donkey Kong Country. I’m glad that the internet has made a complete mockery out of him for his mishandling of his “magnum opus,” and he deserves every single insult thrown at him.

It's shocking to look at this and realize that certain things are stupid in the release version only due to the studio changing one detail that fucks the scene. The one that jumps out to me is the reporter trying to interview Dex at the club. In the release version, it's a Toucan with boobies that hovers around like she has antigravity. In the original cut, we can see the reporter is a Bumblebee lady, so it makes sense for her to be floating around like a bee. Subtle shit like that may not bee immediately apparent but people do subconsciously pick up on them. The more there are, the more it starts to grate against your psyche.

It's a shame because you can kinda get a glimpse on what could have been here, and while I'm sure the movie wouldn't have been anything more than okay, still feels kind of sad. Some of the animation here (for the time in 2001/02) is actually decent, especially the airplane scene with the squirrel at 1:40. There's a cool snappy cartoon nature that no one had gotten right yet at the time in CGI and from what I see where he beats the gator and pops in and out of the plane would have been revolutionary at that point, and set Threshold apart from Pixar and DreamWorks in terms of style. It's a whole mess but even in messes like this you still wonder what the alternate reality would have been like had it happened.

3:28 The weasel sounds like Marge Simpson

The designs for the characters are way less creepier in this rough draft than in the final product.

4:49 this kinda made me chuckle, makes me wish we had the actual film.

It really is crazy how think how fascinating to see this when the movie we have is the way it is. This movie could have worked if they had a real director and producer.

It’s weird to think about how animation as a whole would have turned out if this version of the movie was finished in alternate timeline and the didn’t go with motion capture. Genuinely I think that if they made the whole film like this it would have been a massive pillar of animation history as a whole, leading the way for more stylized cg animation like cloudy with a chance of meatballs or even influenced the spider-verse movies. This movie could’ve been something, but now it’s the movie that could’ve been something

Why couldn't we have got this instead I tell you the animation is so much better then the freakish movement in the final

0:14 He looked so happy 😢

Wow, if they kept this more fluid animation and add more texture and shading in some scenes, this movie might be passable to watch. I mean it may not make a difference in the story so that won’t help make it a better film but atleast it be less of an eyesore 😅

As much as I will give some credit to the better animation, I think this film would still have been bad in the sense of its story, and would have faded into obscurity because it wouldn’t have been as memorable as it is in its release state in 2012. HOWEVER, because of its abominable animation, is why the film is still remembered and talked about today

5:45 That close up tho

its interesting how the animation still kinda sucks even in this early version. a lot of rookie 3d animator mistakes. contorting the models to get that exaggerated squash and stretch when the rigs can't handle it, key frames bring timed out poorly (plus general key frame issues causing some parts of the character models to jitter and jump to different positions unnaturally), a lot of movement for the sake of movement with no intention behind it, random lack of follow through and moving holds, blah blah blah other animation technicalities, et cetera. though on the flip side, a couple of little moments here and there throughout this compilation have pretty decent character acting that understand the basic principles of animation so it's not all bad. a lot of these animation tests give off college animation student level quality. for a student level? its pretty decent overall. for a feature film pitch? rough. especially considering by the time this was made, other new animated movies made by feature film inexperienced studios like blue sky with ice age or dna productions with jimmy neutron were coming out (jimmy neutron was also animated in lightwave). with the character animation in those films being way better than this. maybe the animation would have improved with a higher budget if these test reels ever got a decent company investing, but animation aside, this idea is just lame and the writing is awkward. this probably would've been a flop even if the original reels never got stolen.

Lmao this wouldn’t have been a good movie either way it looks like major GARBAGE

why did they get rid of the squash and stretch? Im like amazed by the lack of floatiness and unnecessary limb flailing.

The story couldve have been interpreted better. Its like "buy name brand because we look cool and stuff" which is a horrible story. But the pacing in these scenes set the movie properly instead of the weird cut and paste scenes they had to do with the remade version. So even if the story didnt make any sense it still wouldve been a lot better than what was released.

Interesting how you can see the sponsors who dropped out. It definitely added to the cost overruns that they had to redo their scenes.

If you made a video of First Draft vs Finished product and put this as Finished product and the actual Finished product as first draft someone who hasn't seen the movie would believe that no question it had so much of a regression in quality it's amazing how you can go from the bottom to the even lower
