Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This was Cartoon Network's first live-action/animation hybrid feature, riding the wave of Who Framed Roger Rabbit nostalgia but with 2006 energy.
The film served as a backdoor pilot for Out of Jimmy's Head, which became CN's first live-action series—despite being about a boy with a cartoonist's brain in his skull.
