Jeff Smith’s blog comments on the comics’ move to Warner Bros:
The whole thing happened very quickly last Friday night. Warners called and made us a real offer, it was as simple as that. They stated their seriousness to stay true to the books, and after a couple of back and forths, the whole thing was over in an hour and a half. Vijaya and I had a celebratory drink and went to bed. We woke up Saturday morning to find the internet on fire!
As previously reported, that “serious offer” was a “mid-six-figure option against seven figures for purchase.” So let’s hope that celebratory drink was Dom Pérignon.
Some things are simply worth waiting for. :)
A lot of fans were disappointed when Jeff Smith walked away from the last attempt at a BONE movie (I think that was with Nickelodeon?) but I’m sure he had very good reasons. Smith stuck to his guns when so many would have just taken the big paycheck and booked a 5-year cruise.
A faithful BONE film will be such a treat.
oh he had MORE than good reasons Marcus. Nickolodeon wanted to make it a pop culture in-joking musical with rugrats crossovers. The fact that Smith had no problem walking away once gives me a lot of hope that this will come out good.
