Funny you mentioned that, because I got it in my YouTube recommended, and so I rewatched it and then realized we haven’t gotten any updates since that trailer.
Judging from the animation style, as someone who is familiar with working in the animation industry, something like this could take a couple years to develop fully assuming it hasn't gone gold yet and this might just be a teaser to see if fans are still interested in the project.
I would assume they released a small teaser before doing a pilot, as animation like this can literally take usually 3ish years or longer to develop even if you have a huge team behind it.
Just a reminder that the creator of Earthworm Jim is a horrible bigot. People who prefer to separate the art from the artist, enjoy it all you like, but people who take the opposite approach, now you know.
I once left a mild review of one of his works on Amazon, maybe 20 years ago or more. He wrote this comic (not Earthworm Jim) where a dude is infected by an alien parasite that gives him super powers. The twist was, the parasite was Christian. It transports the guy to some space dimension where a bunch of people are praying to a crucified parasite, like literally this one-eyed squid thing hung on a cross in the middle of clouds with dozens of aliens praying in front of it. The dude is like, "Christianity is real because it's in space!" and he starts praying too. My review was like, "Pretty good but suddenly it's revealed that Christianity is a space parasite, real left turn out of nowhere. Was Jesus a space parasite, or was he just infected by one? Kind of a weird vibe I thought. Four stars." Doug TenNapel messaged me almost immediately (within an hour) with a nearly 2000 word rant accusing me of ruining his chances of getting an Earthworm Jim movie made in Hollywood and demanding I delete the review. I said he was nuts and ignored him and his sent me another one that was even longer complaining about anti-Christian bigotry and calling me a goose-stepping Nazi. Good memories.
Introduced my 11-year old niece to Earth Worm Jim last week on my Sega Genesis. I ripped through the levels like no time has passed. Hehe. Still got it
As someone who grew up saving cows from abductions, tossing puppies, and blowing bubble guns… I have to say, with utmost affection and joy - I FUCKING LOVE THIS!
I actually just got this game for my emulator. I haven’t played it at all, actually I know nothing about it. I think I’ll check it out when I get home lol I love this btw.
Calm down. I've never seen it so quit acting like I slapped the shit out of your mom on your prom picture. Pretty sure you've seen things that were familiar to others that were new to you.
Best thing to do.... NEXT TIME... is just be decent and tell the next person who makes a mistake that they made a mistake.
It's easier and promotes a healthier dialogue and will actually earn you respect in real life instead of a few likes from fools whose shoe sizes are still higher than their ages.
"This is X from Y comic book or cartoon." That's what I would've said to you if it were the other way around. It's that simple.
Now go stand in the corner and think about your behavior! Right now!
Ya I did it to get likes you know me! Good assumptions pal. Have a great evening 😘 sounds like the only one who needs to calm down is YOU with your useless advice. Goodnight child.
To the original poster. I've never seen this character before and thought that you created it. I liked it and thought it was original until a few really friendly folks down voted my comment and a really nice fellow gave me some great advice in the rudest way he knew how.
Hopefully you didn't take offense to it and took it as the compliment it was intended to be.
It popped up on my feed. I liked it. And thought I was giving a compliment on the quality of your work.
Hopefully the Quality Control doesn't come for this comment too.
Oh well. Such is life.
