This
was originally a pitch for a Japanese animated show. Something which had
NEVER been tried before: a serious Animated Western for adults with lots
of spooky monsters and horrible things happening to good people, just the
way the Japanese like it. Then their economy went to Hell and never
returned. The animation studio went broke with the pilot half finished, the property reverted to us
and we began pitching here in the United States.
You've
never seen people stare at you strangely until the words
"Western" and "Animation" come out of your mouth at
the same time. It's an unfortunate carryover fom comic books that
American Media Executives think of Animation as being "just for
kids" - while at the same time American adults and teens with NO
CHILDREN pay several hundreds of millions of dollars to see films like
Shrek.
If you think that "Deadwood" is great, I'll do you one better... Deadwood with vampires, Frankenstein monsters, werewolves and zombies. C'mon... you know you want it...
