Bad Toys II – internet video coming to the big screen


Bad Toys II (embedded above) an internet videos from French animators Daniel Brunet and Nicolas Douste. It riffs on Michael Bay productions (specifically Bad Boys II, hence the title) and features a car chase recreated by toys, mixed with animation and stylized effects. The result is a pretty entertaining recreation of a Bay car chase sequence, complete with massive explosions. My main complaint is the action begins to get repetitive, though it does pick up after the chase ends but the short keeps going. And now the short has been optioned for a movie.

The problem is it has been optioned by Adam Sandler’s Happy Madison Productions. Yeah. Also Columbia, but as Happy Madison is the problem, that’s what we’ll complain about. That’s our job. We carry a badge. A complaint badge. It isn’t shiny enough.

The plot will feature a grown man playing with his son’s toys and reclaiming his imagination as the play becomes a big action movie spectacular. Original animators Daniel Brunet and Nicolas Douste will co-produce.

Columbia’s big-screen version will center on a grown man reconnecting with his youthful imagination through his son’s toys, and his play turns into an homage to big-budget action films.

Hey, if this gets me an Action League Now movie, I’ll put up with 100 Adam Sandler toys!
