I love how the interviewer keeps a straight face about Ronald Regan being on the end of a clown's penis and all that other weird stuff but laughs when Bruce mentions he'd pay to see it.

[WLaRochelle]

Actually Bruce laughs at that remark. And if you look closely I am stifling laughter about the penis premise, even though I knew of it.

Looks like a movie I'd see. Hopefully they'll get to shoot it.

The latest I had heard was that it's going to be done in a mix of Live action, stop motion and CGI. Supposedly already in the can if Wiki is to be believed.

So, what the hell? Did it ever get made. Come on people give him the money to make the god-damn Chester Brown movie. I'd pay money to go see it.

Yeah, I'm a big fan of Chester's work. I think Bruce is the right person to bring it to life. I'd prefer a traditionally animated Ed movie though. It's be neat to see Chester's drawings come to life. Plus I don't think it would be be as controvercial since people don't take cartoons as seriously as live action.
