...with a follow-up to Coaxial's previous report about Warner Bros.' development of a feature-length Animaniacs project. Said report indicated that a decision making process was underway, which would determine whether the project would be released theatrically, or straight-to-video.

In an article in the New York Post (today I believe), it is revealed that the Animaniacs project in question will be released straight-to-video. Here's a link to the Post's report. Thanks to AUGIE for calling this to my attention.

In other Animaniacs news, FLAVIO wrote-in with a little more news about this project. It won't make any sense unless you've read Coaxial's first report on the subject.

Here's what Flavio had to say:

"The Animaniacs project was not shot in 2 vesions - it was shot in a TV ratio, and if it were to be released theatrically, they might crop it to give it a theatrical ratio (I think this is a bad idea, it would ruin the intended composition.)

I understand it was also done with digital ink and paint. If so, it has never been on film, and has never really intended for theaters. Digital ink and paint is amazingly clean, by the way (I think it was used on the All Dogs straight to video). It really is the wave of the future."

So, there you have it, folks. ((sigh)).
