Rumor: Kanye West As Creative Director Of The ‘Jetsons’ Movie? Of Course.
Kanye West! Creative Director of the Jetsons movie? Makes total sense. In a world where nothing makes sense such as we inhabit.
Slashfilm:
Kanye West says a lot of stuff on Twitter – so much so, sometimes, that his account should be labeled with that old tag that adorned cheap novelties and pinball machines, “for amusement only.” Last night he went on a long tweet-spree, the contents of which are mostly out of our editorial jurisdiction.
There was one thing, however, that caught our eye: Kanye says he just had a conference call about becoming the creative director for “the Jetson movie.” Huh?
Here’s the relevant tweet set:
I was just discussing becoming the creative director for the Jetson movie and someone on the call yelled out.. you should do a Jetsons tour! [1] … This just happened a few hours ago. I was very insulted of course becuase for anyone that’s seen the Watch the Throne Tour [2] …Or Coachella or Glow in the Dark or Runaway.. you know I have real ideas…[3]
Presumably this is the live-action Jetsons movie that was written by Adam Goldbergand which Robert Rodriguez was once attached to direct. We haven’t heard much at all about the movie in a while (which was just fine, I think) but this implies that it isn’t dead yet. Of course it isn’t dead – the Jetsons is a known, exploitable property.
Let’s get it done. I love rubbernecking car crashes.
