We may have mentioned it before but we at FTN HQ love cartoons. And one of our current favourites, along with Gravity Falls and Regular Show, is the awesome Adventure Time…

And we’re very excited by the news that Cartoon Network and Warner Bros are working on bringing it to the big screen.

The series, created by Pendleton Ward, “follows the escapades of 12-year-old boy Finn and best friend dog Jake who fight fiercely in a quest to protect their beloved Land of Ooo, usually from the Ice King who is searching high and low for his Princess Bubblegum.”

The movie version will be produced by The LEGO Movie’s Chris McKay and The LEGO Batman Movie’s Roy Lee, so the pedigree and apparent desire to put out something special is certainly there.

We just hope it does Jake and Finn justice. They deserve a big show.

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
