Riz au Lait: The Frenchman's Ultimate Comfort Food
Famous Death Row Last Meals
We've had X-Men and The Fantastic Four, so why not a movie about cereal mascot superheroes?
Our sister blog Cinematical has news about a new computer-animated film called Cereal Heroes. It's about cereal box mascots that are accidentally brought to life and have to go on the run and stay safe in the modern world.
This sounds so crazy that it just might work. I'm not sure if I want to see it as an animated film or try to get actors to play the mascots. But if the writing is sharp, this has great satire potential. Imagine the Quisp guy flying around and Tony The Tiger saving the world and the Rice Krispies guys getting into trouble. Maybe Cap 'n Crunch can have a cool speed boat that he pilots to save the day.
Which cereal characters would you like to see come to life in a movie like this?

Although, I wouldn't mind finding out about how Cap'n Crunch became a Cap'n - he must've had some interesting adventures in his younger days. Also, I think the criminal from Cookie Crisp is probably worth investigating; I mean, what causes someone to break the law so regularly for cookies. What's his motivation? There's a story there, dagnabbit.
I would also posit that Toucan Sam, the Cocoa Puffs bird, and Lucky are probably predictably boring.
