Okay, nothing particularly against the Venture Brothers, but is it even possible to mention Jonny Quest on the internet anymore WITHOUT the thread being hijacked?

@kingzilch: you wouldn't think so. I agree though, despite my VB comment above. Clearly Johnny Quest is worthy of its own love and admiration or the brilliant minds behind Venture wouldn't have borrowed from it so liberally.

The Rock is a great action film actor, but can he carry off the steamy, unspoken sexual tension between Race and Dr. Quest?

@EBone: Well, that's easy. But the raw, unspoken, yet treacherous homoerotic undercurrents between Jonny and Hadji? THAT'S why child actors rake in the big $$$.

I am much more interested in who will play Hadji. Will they chicken out and drop the second-coolest character (after race)? Also, how about Jade?

Can you see it NOT being the Slumdog Millionaire kid?

@kingzilch: One of the Jonas Brothers, dunked in a spray-tanning booth and given 30 minutes of voice-coaching is a likelier bet.

Why isn't it the Venture Bros?

Because they want to make money. I have loved the Venture Bros since the first season, have the Blood Judo shirt (if you know what that entailed), and hope to get a film someday. But The Rock, and HSM guy? You do not want that kind of Venture Bros film because to make it as blockbustry as you would want it it would have to be toned down a fair bit. You think they're going to mass market a tentpole film like this if it has a naked Rock as Brock Sampson covered in blood after gutting 100 henchmen, smoking a cigarette? No, no they're not, but it is what we would need from a good VB film.

And badmouthing Bandit?! harsh.

Zac Effron? I thought Jonny was supposed to be, you know, smart.

@ManchuCandidate: That's about the first thing I thought... or at least ass-kicking. Not a pansy super tan boy who wears capri pants. Jonny Quest was my favorite show as a kid, but this movie looks like a drinking game.

@oboesqueaks: Zac Effron gets a half-lifetime pass for playing the young Simon in Firefly.

Just a half kid, so dont blow it.

@ManchuCandidate: And, y'know, young? Jonny & Hodj are kids, fercrissakes.

Tho, slap a white Andy Warhol fright wig on him and Zac could star as Race. The post-60s, groovy, acid-washed Race. Who eats Bandit. While tripping and after accidentally putting him in the microwave to dry out.

Or heck - I'm generous - can't Bandit eat Zac/Race? No microwave needed - wolfing him down alive works for me.

On the bright side, it might generate another season of the Venture Bros.

Since it's being made right now, I'd say you got what you wanted.
