'''''Foodfight!''''' is a CGI-animated movie from Threshold Animation Studios, considered by many to be one of the worst animated films of all time. The '''''early version''''' of the film seemed to be a lot different from the original and was slated for a Christmas 2003 release. However, the original files were deleted by the film's creator<ref>[https://twitter.com/TheMilanTooner/status/1384241434505617409] Retrieved 21 Apr '21</ref>, and production was stuck in development hell for a decade.


'''''Foodfight!''''' '''(Early Version)''' is a lost CGI-animated movie from Threshold Animation Studios, having been originally slated for a Christmas 2003 release. However, the hard drives that contained the film were stolen, and production was delayed for a decade.
After a lengthy development, ''FoodFight!'' was finally released in 2012 to largely negative reviews.  
 
== History ==
Conception for the lost early version of the film first materialised in 1999, from Lawrence Kasanoff and Joshua Wexler, at the time, an employee of Threshold. A $25 million grant was issued on behalf of a Korean capital firm, at the request of Wexler, and an additional $50 million was expected through various product placement and pre-sale market hype of the film. With cash in hand, development of the film began in 2002. CGI and voiceover work took place at Threshold's Santa Monica, California studio.
 
However, the film reached an impasse in development in December 2002. Hard drives containing the film's progress were reportedly stolen, leading to the entire film having to be made over again from scratch. As the majority of the budget was already spent on licensing products, mascots, actors, and production, it was given a new "live-action" take and was produced on a very restricted budget, using the insufficient software. On its heavily delayed release in 2012, the movie received negative reviews, with most criticism directed towards the abysmal CGI animation. Critics described the movie as "stiff, jerky, lifeless and unfinished", in addition to noting other problems, like uncomfortable sexualization and a terrible script.
 
The pre-theft version was a hopeful production that was expected to showcase the uniqueness and ability of Threshold Animation Studios. Critics and investors were initially so confident in the film that some of them actually called Threshold "the next-generation PIXAR."
 
== Plot ==
''Foodfight!'' is stylised as "''Toy Story'' in a supermarket," as it was about a supermarket that came to life when the store closed. The film includes many legendary food mascots, representing the large portion of the budget that came from product placement. The film stars actors and actresses such as Charlie Sheen and Hillary Duff, playing original mascots Dex Dogtective and Sunshine Goodness, respectively.
 
== Discoveries ==
It's unknown whether ''Foodfight!'' could have somewhat lived up to the hype surrounding its original production. The early progress on the film that may have been salvageable currently resides on the hard drives that, to this day, are still lost. It's estimated that there may be around 60% of the completed film in existence. The few things that are available from the early version of ''Foodfight!'' include an early trailer with significantly better animation, displaying the various merchandise made to promote the film.

Conception for the first version of ''Foodfight!'' materialized in 1997, from Lawrence Kasanoff and Joshua Wexler, at the time, an employee of Threshold. In late 1997, Threshold applied for two trademarks for the "Foodfight!" name related to merchandising. A $25 million grant was issued on behalf of a Korean capital firm, at the request of Wexler, and an additional $50 million was expected through various product placement and pre-sale market hype of the film. With cash in hand, development of the film began in 2002. CGI and voice-over work took place at Threshold's Santa Monica, California studio. Threshold thought that the pre-theft version was going to showcase the uniqueness and ability of their studio. Critics and investors were initially so confident in the film that some of them actually called Threshold "the next-generation Pixar."

Threshold Animation Reel containing the same footage with different audio, possibly from the early version of the film (2:03 - 2:05): https://web.archive.org/web/20140415123943/http://thresholdanimationstudios.com/video/reel.ogg
==Plot==
''Foodfight!'' is stylized as a  "''Toy Story'' in a supermarket," as it was about products in a supermarket that come to life when the store is closed.

The film follows the original main character Dex, who is a detective in "Marketropolis". Dex then proposes to his girlfriend, Sunshine Goodness. Before Dex proposes to his girlfriend, she vanishes. Six months later while Dex is partying Brand X then appears. Brand X attempts to destroy "Marketropolis" but is stopped by Dex. The film stars actors and actresses such as Charlie Sheen and Hillary Duff, played and voiced original mascots Dex Dogtective and Sunshine Goodness respectively.

  |description3 =Threshold Animation Reel containing the same footage from the prequel with different audio (2:03 - 2:05)
- Most of the scenes and even shots are identical to the final film, which goes along to show just how much may have been similar. Some of the completely original parts not seen anywhere in the final film include:
  |service4    =youtube
 
  |id4          =DtUDxURfySQ
- (0:20 - 0:23) Chester Cheetah scene, as he didn't make it into the final movie. This could be from the opening where the market is coming to life considering its placement in the trailer.

}}
- (0:26 - 0:28) Dex fighting the red ninja mascot. In the final film, he is seen confronting the Fat Cat Burglar and Hairless Hamsters, but there wasn't any physical combat involved, and it took place on top of an air balloon.
 
- (0:55 - 0:57) Lord Flushington gets trampled by a manhole cover. This also happens in the final film but in daytime and with Mr Clean in the background instead.
 
- (1:08 - 1:09) Dex is seen dancing with an unknown redhead. This could be the scene from the final movie where he dances with Lady X.
 
- (1:36 - 1:41) Second Chester Cheetah scene.
 
- Around the 0:09 mark, an image of ''Donkey Kong Coconut Crackers'' minus the "Donkey Kong" part of the logo can be seen in the background. It is unknown why, but it may have been either a placeholder or other type of product in the store. It's also unusual in that ''Donkey Kong Coconut Crackers'' wasn't even released to the public.
 
- (1:09 - 1:11)(1:22 - 1:26) These are actually shots from the final movie, implying the trailer may have been made after the theft if not for the mismatched audio still being overheard on these parts, meaning the new footage may have been placed over certain parts of the trailer. In the first one, the voice of someone that could be Twinkleton can be heard. In the second, a laugh from the dictator can be heard as well as marching, a plane soar and a scream.

Foodfight-Lady X LK FINAL sm.jpg

A promotional still released in 2003.

Status: Partially Found

Foodfight! is a CGI-animated movie from Threshold Animation Studios, considered by many to be one of the worst animated films of all time. The early version of the film seemed to be a lot different from the original and was slated for a Christmas 2003 release. However, the original files were deleted by the film's creator[1], and production was stuck in development hell for a decade.

After a lengthy development, FoodFight! was finally released in 2012 to largely negative reviews.

History

Larry Kasanoff, the film's director, with concept art and stills of the original version of the film.
Promotional image from Foodfight!. Dex is notably depicted as a human.

Conception for the first version of Foodfight! materialized in 1997, from Lawrence Kasanoff and Joshua Wexler, at the time, an employee of Threshold. In late 1997, Threshold applied for two trademarks for the "Foodfight!" name related to merchandising. A $25 million grant was issued on behalf of a Korean capital firm, at the request of Wexler, and an additional $50 million was expected through various product placement and pre-sale market hype of the film. With cash in hand, development of the film began in 2002. CGI and voice-over work took place at Threshold's Santa Monica, California studio. Threshold thought that the pre-theft version was going to showcase the uniqueness and ability of their studio. Critics and investors were initially so confident in the film that some of them actually called Threshold "the next-generation Pixar."

However, the film reached an impasse in development in December 2002. Hard drives containing the film's progress were reportedly stolen. This was proven false, as they were in reality, deleted[2]. As the majority of the budget was already spent on licensing products, mascots, actors, and production, it was given a new "live-action" take and was produced on a very restricted budget, using the insufficient software. Attempts were made to release Foodfight! by 2005. In 2007, a distribution deal was struck, but soon fell threw as no one knew when the movie could be released. In 2011, the remaining assets of the film were put up for auction at a starting bid of $2.5 million. Boulevard Entertainment ended up winning the assets for Foodfight! and worked to release the film. The finished product was released on June 15, 2012, but was met with negative reception.[3]

Plot

Foodfight! is stylized as a "Toy Story in a supermarket," as it was about products in a supermarket that come to life when the store is closed. The film includes many legendary food mascots, representing the large portion of the budget that came from the product placement. The film follows the original main character Dex, who is a detective in "Marketropolis". Dex then proposes to his girlfriend, Sunshine Goodness. Before Dex proposes to his girlfriend, she vanishes. Six months later while Dex is partying Brand X then appears. Brand X attempts to destroy "Marketropolis" but is stopped by Dex. The film stars actors and actresses such as Charlie Sheen and Hillary Duff, played and voiced original mascots Dex Dogtective and Sunshine Goodness respectively.

Availability

It's unknown whether Foodfight! could have lived up to the hype surrounding its original production. The early progress on the film that may have been salvageable currently resides on the hard drives that, to this day, are still lost. Before the original files were deleted[4], it is estimated that the film was 60% complete. It is unknown what happened to the remainder of the film. The original trailer, a few reels, and some concept art have been the only pieces of the original film that has resurfaced at the time of this writing.

The original trailer for the film
