"Live Action" Hong Kong Phooey & Marvin The Martian
Test footage for live-action "Hong Kong Phooey" starring the voice of Eddie Murphy. Talking CGI-animals is not new, and the current adaptation of old time cartoons is not new (ala Chipmunks, Garfield, Scooby-Doo, Smurfs etc) but tis interesting to see Hanna Barbera cartoons get the treatment (I'm still holing out for a live-action Herculoids, yo!). Looney Tunes are also getting in on the action with "Marvin the Martian" … but MovieWeb speculates instead this:
"The shorts are both produced by Alcon & Rat Entertainment for Warner Bros. What do you think? Do you want to see feature length versions of these shorts? Or are a couple of minutes good enough for you? It is being speculated that, since Alex Zamm posted both of these online, the projects are most likely dead. That has not been confirmed by Warner Bros."
