Best Ent. has acquired home entertainment rights to TV-Loonland’s animated properties G.I. Joe The Movie and Reboot II for German speaking territories. The 90-minute G.I. Joe adventure is scheduled to debut this winter and the three-DVD Reboot II set is due in shops in time for Christmas.
In the next few weeks, Best Ent. will also release the successful TV-Loonland series Three Friends and Jerry (39×26), Pongwiffy (six 75-minute DVDs), Shadow Raiders (three 75-minute DVDs and one 100-minute DVD) and Enchanted Tales (20 60-minute DVDs). Enchanted Tales features such timeless stories as Gulliver’s TravelsBeauty and the Beast and Treasure Island.
As we reported yesterday, TV-Loonland just sold seasons two and three of Three Friends and Jerry and the CG-animated holiday special Donner to Jetix Germany (formerly Fox Kids). Three Friends and Jerry is a co-production between TV-Loonland and Swedish company Happy Life Animation, a subsidiary of Svensk Filmindustri. It centers on 10-year-old friends Frank, Thomas and Eric as new kid Jerry cooks up crazy ideas in desperate attempts to be accepted into their group. Donner was animated by Rainbow Animation Studios and follows the story of unhappy reindeer Donner, who must overcome a severe identity crisis at Christmas time.
