Rocko's Modern Life TV Movie
 
Quote:

One of Nickelodeon’s most modern characters is getting, well, even more modern.

EW has learned exclusively that Nickelodeon has greenlit a TV movie of Rocko’s Modern Life, the classic ‘90s animated Nicktoon created by Joe Murray.

The one-hour TV special will bring back all of the beloved characters in Rocko’s fictional city of O-Town. Murray will return as executive producer and co-director of the film, which will be produced out of Nickelodeon Animation Studios in Burbank.

“I’m very happy to be rejoining Rocko and my friends from O-Town again,” Murray said in a statement. “What I have found by bringing these characters back is that it’s not so much about nostalgia, but a sense that they still feel relevant and fresh to me, and after 20 years, they can’t wait to comment on modern life in the 21st century. They still have a lot to say.”'

That's my favorite cartoon of all time next to TMNT! So cool!

drgon78 08-11-2016 08:27 PM

I love the show, I hope this movie is actually good.

This is great. This was my favorite Nicktoon. I said awhile back itd be perfect to revive because of the changes to modern living nowadays.

I wish it was coming back as a whole series instead of just a special/movie.

TheBlueTurtle1 08-12-2016 03:14 AM

Yes, first a new Hey Arnold movie, and now this. Maybe Something Rugrats related next

The Deadman 08-12-2016 11:11 AM

F*ck Rugrats, bring back Ren & Stimpy.

drgon78 08-12-2016 03:10 PM

Someone already tried to bring back Ren and Stimpy, it didn't last.

Yeah, but that's because Spike TV tried to make it more adult friendly when it didnt need to be.

drgon78 08-13-2016 05:58 AM

It wasn't Spike TV that made it more adult, it was the creator of the series. It just shows you that sometimes limitations can be a good thing for a artist, writer, director, etc..

Plot synopsis for the special. Original voice cast confirmed :

Quote:

According to Nickelodeon, the TV special “brings the characters back to Earth after being lost in outer space since 1996. Rocko has trouble accepting this 21st century modern life, while Heffer and Filburt embrace every aspect of new technology, social media and the endless diversity of food trucks. Rocko whole-heartedly believes that his nostalgia for the past can save him from the tortures of the modern world.”

It would be funny if it's just all just the Mayo frame.


But yeah it'll be great to have this show back. Dr. Hutchison and Filburt's relationship was one of the sweetest things ever.

When is the all Nicktoons movie due and Hey Arnold projects? It feels like they were announced a long time ago.

DestronMirage22 06-23-2017 01:41 AM

Cool! :D

Nice to finally get details but I'm still disappointed this is only a one time tv special. There's a lot they could do if it was at least 1 complete season instead.

I'm sure it'll be good but I feel like it'll be rushed to use as many jokes and call backs as possible in less than 1 hour. We know it won't actually be 60 mins.

Hey Arnold: The Jungle Movie, like Legends of the Hidden Temple last year, is due for a November release this year. I'm not sure on the rest myself right now.

drgon78 06-23-2017 03:27 PM

Do we have a release date for this special yet?

Powder 07-20-2017 07:42 PM



IT'S PERFECT!!!

Utrommaniac 07-20-2017 07:50 PM

Aww, poor Rocko XD .

Even the digital animation looks really nice. It's super dedicated to the original animation style and replicates it awesomely.
