God I hope that they find a studio willing to take the risk...I think that it'll pay off handsomely for them. I know that I and whole generation of fanboys (& girls) are feverishly waiting for this after the disappointing Heavy Metal 2000 flopped. Fincher is just the man for the job too, in my opinion. MY FINGERS ARE CROSSED!

I never had no idea that Daivd Fincher and Kevin Eastman are collaborating on a new "Heavy Metal"(animated feature)movie,for let's all cross our fingers and strongly hope that it lives up to the 1981 film(which,along with Ralph Bakshi's duo of "Hey,Good Looking" and "American Pop",was the final theatrical adult audience animated film in the U.S.).
And the less said about the mediocre "Heavy Metal 2000"(which was just one sole story,and had B movie diva Julie Strain as its main attracting feature),the better.

I agree with you on this one, Steven!
Too often the studio execs, and the producers of the material don't understand or appreciate the NEED to expand creatively... All that they can see are risk factors, statistical data, and dollar signs.
This sounds like a great project, and you're right about Bakshi... Noone has produced American made, adult animated material of that calibre in the last few decades!
(And let's not forget "Fire and Ice", that was KICK-ASS!!)

Maybe Lionsgate or Dimension, who are the more gutsy of studios, will take it.
