The Edmonton Sun speaks with Dave Thomas about brothers Bob and Doug McKenzie, the comedic duo created by Thomas and Rick Moranis. Although the characters are not directly featured in Brother Bear 2, they do serve as inspiration for the moose brothers Rutt and Tuke, admits Thomas. However, as the actor explains, that inspiration can only go so far before legal matters enter the scene. In the meantime, the actual McKenzie’s themselves will soon be starring in a Flash-animated series from Thomas’ Animax Entertainment.
