''Foodfight!'' is a CGI-animated movie from Threshold Animation Studios, considered by many to be one of the worst animated films of all time.

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 placements 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-deletion 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."
Conception for the first version of ''Foodfight!'' materialized in 1997, from Lawrence Kasanoff and Joshua Wexler, the founders of Threshold Entertainment. In late 1997, Threshold applied for two trademarks for the "Foodfight!" name related to merchandising as well as a copyright registration for a 22-page treatment for the film. A $25 million grant was issued on behalf of a Korean capital firm, Natural Image, at the request of Wexler, and an additional $50 million was expected through various product placements and pre-sale market hype of the film. With cash in hand, development of the film began in 1999. CGI and voice-over work took place at Threshold's Santa Monica, California studio. Kasanoff had planned to showcase the uniqueness and ability of their studio by showing a 7-minute reel of finished animation that had been created by the film's first team.


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<ref>[https://twitter.com/TheMilanTooner/status/1384241434505617409] Retrieved 21 Apr '21</ref>. 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 through 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. The rights and assets, presumably, were never sold due to releases still having a copyright notice attributed to the insurance company, and the Fireman's Insurance Fund hired a studio to complete the movie as quickly as possible. The finished product was released on June 15th, 2012, but was met with negative reception.<ref>[http://animationmagazine.net/top-stories/the-long-strange-odyssey-of-foodfight/ Animation Magazine's article that covers the development history of ''FoodFight!''.] Retrieved 27 Jun '18</ref>

It's unknown whether ''Foodfight!'' could have lived up to the hype surrounding its original production. Before the original files were deleted,<ref>[https://twitter.com/TheMilanTooner/status/1384241434505617409] Retrieved 21 Apr '21</ref> It is unknown what happened to the remainder of the film. The original trailer, a few reels, some storyboards<ref>https://garykclair.wixsite.com/mysite/copy-of-justice-league-alien-invasi</ref> and concept art have surfaced however.
The original sizzle reel had not been seen in at least 20 years.

In addition, as of August 24th 2023, Lost Media Wiki user TiffanyAmber01 found a copy of a novelization based on a very early draft of the script. The novelization has been scanned and uploaded in its entirety to the Internet Archive by her here<ref name=":0">https://archive.org/details/foodfightnovelization_202308/</ref> , and a blog has been written by the same user documenting all the changes between the novelization and the finished film- this can be found here. <ref>https://foodfightnovelization.tumblr.com/tagged/foodfight/chrono</ref>  
In January 2024, Tiffany Amber found a copy of the novelization of the film and uploaded a complete scan of it online. Stills from the reel can be seen on a few pages.<ref>[https://archive.org/details/foodfight-novelization-hq-scans/mode/2up Foodfight! The Junior Novelization.] Retrieved 4 May '24</ref>


The novelization was written and published in 2008 by children's author Irene Trimble<ref name=":0" />, however it seems to be based on an early version of the movie, pre-hard drive deletion - there are 8 pages of color stills in the middle of the book, but these are very evidently from the 2002 version of the movie and not a later iteration. In addition, the novelization contains many differences to the final movie. Among these are Fat Cat Burglar being an actual cat (he's a rat in the finished film), most of the sexual humor and innuendo not being present, the character of the Brand X Lunchlady being replaced entirely by a character known as the "Mashed Potato Man", as well as there being a completely different ending.<ref name=":0" /> This ending takes place entirely in the real-world grocery store and only features the manager, Mr Leonard, whereas the finished film ends with Dex and Sunshine's wedding at the Copabanana in Marketropolis. In the novelization, their wedding is simply alluded to by Mr Leonard recieving a shipment of a brand-new cereal- "New and Improved Cinnamon Sleuth Cereal- Now with Sunshine Goodness Raisins!".<ref>https://foodfightnovelization.tumblr.com/post/726781837382500352/chapter-24-analysis-and-discussion-conclusion</ref>

The original title card.

Status: Partially Lost

Foodfight! is a CGI-animated movie from Threshold Animation Studios, considered by many to be one of the worst animated films of all time. Originally beginning animation in 2000, the initial production and crew were scrapped and redone entirely around 2004 when it was claimed that the entire movie was stolen in an act of "industrial espionage."[1] A 7-minute showreel that was produced before this, however, which was used in early publicity stills and shown to investors, has yet to be located.

The movie was restarted entirely and after a three-year production period from 2005-2008, the movie was completed.[2] Though it would not be released until 2012 due to unknown reasons, possibly due to the difficulty in finding a distributor or buyer.

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, the founders of Threshold Entertainment. In late 1997, Threshold applied for two trademarks for the "Foodfight!" name related to merchandising as well as a copyright registration for a 22-page treatment for the film. A $25 million grant was issued on behalf of a Korean capital firm, Natural Image, at the request of Wexler, and an additional $50 million was expected through various product placements and pre-sale market hype of the film. With cash in hand, development of the film began in 1999. CGI and voice-over work took place at Threshold's Santa Monica, California studio. Kasanoff had planned to showcase the uniqueness and ability of their studio by showing a 7-minute reel of finished animation that had been created by the film's first team.

However, the film reached an impasse in development around 2004. Kasanoff had told the New York Times that hard drives containing the film's progress were stolen.[1] However crew working there at the time have no recollection of this occurring, some even hinting at the fact that the theft was a lie in order for the film to continue missing deadlines without much consequence. Kasanoff was not experienced in directing an animated film, and the theft may have been an excuse to restart production with motion capture instead, which he was more comfortable using as he considered it adjacent to directing a live-action film.[2] Mona Weiss, a texture artist and animator, was also tasked with opening the same files reported to have been stolen three years beforehand on every computer to impress investors at Kasanoff's request. In 2006, digital artist Loressa Clisby found those same assets that were reported to have been stolen.[3] Between 2004-2006, the old crew was being let go as new crew members were being hired while the production was changing to motion capture. Every asset created beforehand was abandoned. Attempts were made to release Foodfight! by 2005. In 2007, a distribution deal was struck but soon fell through as no one knew when the movie could be released. In 2008, a promissory note that Threshold had signed in 2006 had defaulted, and the Fireman's Fund Insurance Company repossessed the film and hired crew from a company named Digiscope to complete it as fast as possible, which concluded later that year.[2] In 2011, the assets and rights to the film were put up for auction at a starting bid of $2.5 million.[4] The rights and assets were never sold, and the film was distributed by Boulevard Entertainment in the UK and Viva Pictures in the United States. The finished product was released on June 15th, 2012, but was met with negative reception.[5]

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 a 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, who played and voiced original mascots Dex Dogtective and Sunshine Goodness respectively.

Availability

The original sizzle reel had not been seen in at least 20 years. Its last documented location was a 35mm print shown to the press in 2003.[6] Clips from the reel can be seen in the initial trailer from 2011, some crew member's demo reels, and the original sequence as it was planned in 2000 can be seen in the storyboards.[7]

In January 2024, Tiffany Amber found a copy of the novelization of the film and uploaded a complete scan of it online. Stills from the reel can be seen on a few pages.[8]

In May of 2024, Ziggy Cashmere shared a complete workprint of the film on YouTube and the Internet Archive. [9] Along with the workprint, assets from the early version of the film, as well as concept art, a behind-the-scenes video, and other material, were also shared.[10]

Despite many rumors, production never started on the film before it switched to motion capture. All that was completed was preproduction work, like visual development and storyboarding, with around 7 minutes of finished animation. Some additional work, used to shop the film to investors, was also created.
