Candy Land will be the Lord of The Rings of board game movies

Take that, Battleship movie! Candy Land is putting the smack down and declaring they’ll be just as powerful as the beloved trilogy of Hobbits vs Orcs. I hope these board game movie wars continue to escalate and we just get ridiculous films based on board games. It will be a great time to be a bad movie buff! But who will drop the Donut Ring into the liquid chocolate of Mt. Marshmallow?

Co-writer Jonathan Aibel (Kung Fu Panda 2) said “We envision it as Lord of The Rings, but set in a world of candy.”

More from EW and co-writer Glenn Berger:
“We don’t see it as a movie based on a board game, although it has characters from that world and takes the idea of people finding themselves in a world that happens to be made entirely of candy where there are huge battles going on,” Berger says. “We are going for real comedy, real action, and real emotions at stake.”

Wasn’t the Candy Land: The Great Lollipop Adventure movie Lord of the Rings enough for them?

I hope that is chocolate...
