THE JETSONS (TBA) - PREVIEW

The Jetsons (TBA)

Starring: TBA
Director: Robert Rodriguez
U.S. Opening Date: TBA

Director Robert Rodriguez’s cinematic output has always been schizophrenic to say the least, veering between the very violent likes of Sin City and Planet Terror to kids’ movies such as the Spy Kids franchise and The Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl 3-D. So it shouldn’t come as a surprise that he’d be directing this live-action movie based on the old ‘Sixties Hanna-Barbera cartoon in-between the likes of Predators (the Predator reboot), Nerverackers and Sin City 2.

Let’s face up to it: The Jetsons were nothing but The Flintstones set in the far future and one can probably expect a live-action movie to be similar in tone to the 1994 and 2000 Flintstones live-action movies. It will however be a production designer’s wet dream project to bring the Jetsons’ retro futuristic designs to life though and heck! One might even want to check out for that alone!
