We all know webcomics are free, and never get paid, but it is about time for webcomics to have their own movies. for instants, i'm writing Kid Intense: the movie which will or would be a big hit. All you webcomic artists out there, it is time to write your movie based on webcomics. Tell me what you think, okay?

Umm... what would be the point? Seeing as it takes hundreds of millions of dollars to make a movie, Hollywood isn't keen on signing on anything that they think won't rake in money by the truckload. The second they see that the script is based on an obscure webcomic is the second they toss the script in the trash. Notice how almost all of the movies on the big screen that are based on intellectual properties are based on franchises that are already well-established. Superman, The Fantastic Four, Spiderman, they're all well-established IPs that everyone has heard of. What makes you think any director would even consider directing a movie based on a random webcomic whose readers scarcely number in the triple digits? And even then, not all comics transfer well to the big screen. What's a gag strip supposed to do?

I agree with Hijuda. Hollywood or any of the big time producer wouldnt be able to see the potienal of creating a movie out of a webcomic if it doesnt have a long history of fanservice or public awareness. Supposely you're insanely rich, have too much time, or your webcomic is conceptually creative and a blows-their-freaking-brain-away type it will still be a extremely tiny chance that you'd might archive that goal.

I'm not saying that people with dreams to make their comics into movies should give up the idea. Everyone should understand that its very difficult and costly to do so.

I'm considering filming some of my comic-related stuff myself low-budget for comedic effect.

We have enough dick and fart jokes with Rob Schnieder making movies, thanks.

Most people's webcomics use the 'college room mates sit on their arses and play video games' you could easily recreate that with a video camera, a flat surface, and a ninja costume (could someone explain what's supposed to be so hilarious about ninjas?).

There's animation to consider as well, the size of the crew required to make it would depend on the length of film and how quickly you want it finished.
