HOODWINKED opened this week at the Chinese Theatre in Hollywood to qualify for Academy Award. The film, as you may have already heard, is a "Fractured Fairy Tale" spoof of Red Riding Hood, done in the style of The Usual Suspects crossed with (choke) The Family Guy. I guess I'm just here to report that the film isn't a total bust (an easy impression to get from the posters, trailers and those damn ugly character designs) - it will be interesting to see what kind of money it will generate without a full scale family marketing campaign and a brand name distributor/producer behind it.
