The hugelypopular among stoners, college students and insomniacs Adult Swim animation block on Cartoon Network is finally branching out to film. Sadly it won't be Brak or "Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law" that gets the feature but instead AQUA TEEN HUNGER FORCE. The series, if you've never stayed up until 3:30am, follows the adventures of an anthropomorphic fast-food combo meal - a shake (Master Shake), fries (Frylock) and beef (Meatwad). The film, written, produced and directed by co-creators Matt Maiellaro and Dave Willis, will center on the origins of the characters and an "immortal piece of exercise equipment" that threatens galactic peace. ATHF, which has apparently been in production, will release in March on approximately 800 screens. Bruce Campbell and Neal Peart of prog-rock band Rush will provide voices in addition to the original cast members.

Show Is Getting Tired
The first couple of seasons of Aqua Teen were hilarious and pretty unique, but I'm too busy watching Robot Chicken and Metalocalypse to care about a show that I can't even sit through anymore.

its awful. Saw it like 8 months ago, when they still thought people might like it.



The first twenty minutes are funny, and it takes a serious nose dive for the next 60. It was not meant for longer formats, and even if it was, keeping the gang near their house the whole movie (minus the hilarious opening sequence) was a dumbshit move.

Well...
Yeah, they've been working on this for about a year and a half, at the very least. I wanna know when it's coming out finally, dammit!

I never "got" Aqua Teen. Seems like something I would and should love but I just never "got" it, no matter how many times I've tried.

Awesome! I love the TV show. It's just way too irreverant. Carl is one of the funniest people on the show. I can't wait to get some uncensored jokes. I will say that this film needs to land an "R" rating to be as good as it is in my head right now.
