So their making a Peeps movie. What are your thoughts on this? I think it is very, very stupid.
 
Wait, are we seriously going to have a movie based on those cute sugary bird things?

How could they make a movie about Pe-wait, they made a movie about Battleship.

I like Peeps too but making a movie out of it is like making a movie out of gummy worms

Do you look at your bag of gummy worms and think, "gee, I wonder what kind of character I can give to this worm and I wonder what it'll do in these type of situations. I wonder what kind of potential of story it has?"

You know what kind of potential the worm has? None. It's a worm.

says the person who loved the lego movie
 
Well, at least the LEGOs actually look like sentient beings and something you can give a personality to.

Peeps are just, you know, FOOD.

*longer and *?

So do you think making a movie about licensed food products is a good idea? Because the possibilities are endless when your movie stars sugar chemicals in the shape of animals.

Because look at how these types of movies turn out usually.

do I think it's a good idea? certainly. it's pretty much guaranteed to make money.

if you mean to ask whether I think it will be a good movie, I can't form an opinion on that, because it hasn't been released. But making a movie about Peeps is hardly the worst idea Hollywood's come up with. There's nothing inherently wrong with it, you're just convinced that it's a mad grab by Peeps to make money. it's not. it's a mad grab by some director to make money, just like most other movies

For the company and the bottom line, perhaps.

What makes you think it's not a mad grab by Peeps? They gave the license to make the film to some director, pretty sure that involves money and them making it.

So tell me, if a worm-shaped candy has absolutely no potential, what potential does a bird-shaped candy have...?
