Thread: Elfquest

  1. Elfquest

    From SHH:
    Elfquest is Coming to the Big Screen
    Source: The Hollywood Reporter
    July 9, 2008


    Elfquest, the cult comic by Wendy and Richard Pini, is heading to the big screen courtesy of Warners Bros. and Rawson Thurber.

    The Hollywood Reporter says Thurber (Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story) will write, direct and produce the feature, whose format is undetermined.

    The original comic, which the Pinis initially self-published starting in 1978, followed a tribe of elves known as the Wolfriders in their attempts to survive and link with other dispersed elves on an Earth-like planet with two moons while on the lookout for tribes of humans and trolls, both of which acted as allies and enemies.
    I've never read it, but one of my buddies in highschool was absolutely nuts for it. I think it's a serious drama though (as fantasy stories go, anyway), so who knows if Dodgeball Guy is the right fit.

    Heh, while googling up the art, I found that the creators have decided to put the whole thing online, free and legal.

  2. I read through these way back in middle school. I remember them being awesome, but that could've been just because of the half-naked elf chicks.

    There better be a ton of half-naked elf chicks in this movie for it to work.

  3. I never read the comic, but...

    Hell yes! I've been wanting to read this saga since the early '80s but could never find all the issues. Now I can read the whole thing.

    Thanks!

  7. kill yourself, melf. But kill me first for knowing they are making a fucking movie.

  8. Hollywood has really gone overboard with trying to farm comics for ideas.

    Maybe he'd like it more if it was called Melfquest?

  10. I'd camp out for tickets if that were the name.

    Seriously, I've always been interested in reading Elfquest but could never find all the issues. They would disappear from my local Walden Books almost instantly (not that they brought that many to begin with), and by the time a comic shop opened in my area, they were too expensive. I was also more occupied with the quarter comic bins anyway (ah, the '80s).
