Toonhound - Flick: When Films Collide

       "Lights! - Camera! - Cartoon-action!"

   Flick is an obsessed film fan with a penchant for movie puns. In his hands, classic
   movie titles become insanely twisted. Thus we have "Star Wars: The Phantom
   Pregnancy", "Dracula's Prints Of Darkness", "Punnet Of The Apes", "Bums Along
   The Mohawk" and - well - if you can name it, Flick's gone and twisted it in to some
   bizarre mis-shapen offspring of the original...

   Flick!

   Flick was created by yours truly, The Hound, back in 1996. The toons started off
   as a bit of harmless fun, passed around friends and fellow film fans. But the little
   chap proved rather popular, so The Hound knuckled down and produced enough
   for a book. The result was "When Films Collide", which I self-published in 1999.
   And it sold rather well, actually, through the likes of Flashbacks, the fab London
   film memorabillia store where I used to work at the time. The book featured
   74 cartoons, and amongst the titles lampooned were "Seance Of The Lambs",
   "Room With A Pooh", and the horror classic "Zombie Fish-Easters". Also included
   was a spoof of that Bruce Willis sci-fi film "The Fifth Elephant". I drew that toon
   long before Terry Pratchett used the name for a Discworld novel , but hey,
   I guess great minds must think alike, eh?

   Copies of "When Films Collide" are still available, and you can buy them directly
   from me, if you want (£5.99 + shipping). Heck, I'll even sign them for you!

   Flick's been quite quiet for the past few years, as the needs of this here web site
   and our web store have taken over my life. But now he's back, with his very own
   web space, and a promise of lots more toon-foolery to come. What's more, Flick
   is breaking new ground with a series of moving movie toons. Yep, through the
   magic of the web Flick's toons had been adapted in to quick-loading animated gifs.
   A simple technique, but it's really quite effective. And the toons roll on, animated
   or not. So long as Hollywood keeps making them, Flick will keep on
   spoofing them...
