Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg on Sausage Party, Their R Rated Animated FilmWe kept saying, in order for this to work, it really has to look as good as people are expecting, Mr. Rogen said, or else its just a bunch of dirty jokes. Video. Trailer Sausage PartyA preview of the film. By COLUMBIA PICTURES on Publish Date May 2. Photo by Columbia Pictures. Watch in Times Video And that is the films grandest joke It looks just like the computer animated films parents take their children to, but it is definitely not for children. The films distributor, Columbia Pictures, has been extra cautious with the marketing, stamping a large, bold Rated R on billboard ads and movie posters so theres no confusion. Although in at least one instance, a Sausage Party trailer was mistakenly played before a screening of Finding Dory in California. A lot of kids grew up fast that day, Mr. Rogen said. The audience at South by Southwest was a more appropriate fit. A work in progress version played at that Austin, Tex., festival in March to an overwhelmingly enthusiastic response, with audiences cheering the irreverent jokes and food on food sex. Mr. Rogen voiced the blob B. O. B. in the 2. 00. Monsters vs. Aliens, which was directed by Rob Letterman and Conrad Vernon. Mr. Rogen approached Mr. Vernon with the idea for Sausage Party, initially pitched as a film in which hot dogs escape their packaging to have sex with buns. Mr. Vernon was immediately interested. When he started pitching it, I thought, oh my God, this is something Ive wanted to do since I was 1. Mr. Vernon said in a phone interview. He mentioned that contemporary animators frequently crave the opportunity to make movies about more mature subject matter but are rarely given the chance. The Boy Who Saw The Wind Movie In Hd. Photo.

Sony Pictures People who make these movies are adults with adult senses of humor, he said. We have a lot of funny stuff in our heads that we want to do, and probably 7. So over the long term, if the only place you get to work as an adult is in a childs world, youve got a lot of screwed up thoughts in your head that you want to get out on paper. Mr. Goldberg joked about the twisted humor of animators Im about to have a child, he said, and the only rule I have moving into being a parent is that my child will never date a disgusting, disgusting animator. Mr. Vernon directed Sausage Party with Greg Tiernan, who owns the Vancouver animation company Nitrogen Studios with his wife, Nicole Stinn. It is known for producing the series Thomas Friends, about Thomas the Tank Engine. Making Sausage Party with Nitrogen meant the producers could keep the costs low with a budget of 2. Finding Dory. Nitrogen used a lean crew. Theres not too many middle men, Mr. Tiernan said. To add a sense of varied design to a film mostly set in a supermarket, the filmmakers turned the stores aisles into distinct worlds influenced by the work of a handful of filmmakers. They pay homage to Sergio Leone westerns, Jackie Chan action films and war movies like Saving Private Ryan. Photo. Teresa Taco, voiced by Salma Hayek. Credit. Sony Pictures And they got The Little Mermaid composer Alan Menken to write a song for the opening scene. Mr. Vernon said the filmmakers told him Were looking for an Alan Menken Disney song. We need you to satirize yourself. The look of the characters was a much discussed topic of conversation leading up to the making of the film. Mr. Rogen said they went through hundreds of designs for some of the main characters, including the hot dog he plays. At first, he looked really gross, too meaty, Mr. Rogen said. So we had to tone down the meat texture a little bit. We asked, should he wear shoes or glovesShould his arms be these black tubes, or should his arms be made out of sausage as wellThe taco voiced by Salma Hayek created some of the greatest design challenges. Its a super awkward shape, Mr. Rogen said. We asked, where do her legs come from, and where do her arms go What does it look like when shes sidewaysThe overtly sexual look of some characters came up particularly in the design of Brenda the buns mouth. At some point, one of the animators showed us a design where she had that mouth once you saw it, you could never un see it, Mr. Rogen said. There was a point we were worried that the M. P. A. A. wouldnt let us have that in commercials. Continue reading the main story.
