If you think that someone is going to make an animated film entirely out of cardboard, then you would be wrong…somewhat. Cardboard is a graphic novel by Doug TenNapel of Earthworm Jim fame. It is about an impoverished father and son who build a boxer (get the pun?) out of magic cardboard. A neighbor kid catches wind of the magic and abuses the cardboard to bring his own dememted ideas to life. Tobey Maguire and Fox have picked up the movie rights and Chris Wedge of Ice Age is interested in directing.
