This movie would make Willow happy

The Three Stooges and Brothers in Law screenwriter Cameron Fay will reportedly pen a script for an animated feature based on the famous candy dispensers (and the chalky “candy” they dispense, one would think). According to Deadline, Pez Candy Inc. has entered into an agreement with Envision Media Arts (EMA) to develop the film, which is expected to be a self-aware meta-comedy that pokes fun at its own ridiculous premise.

The Pez movie will be produced by Lee Nelson (Pathfinder) and David Buelow (Celeste & Jesse Forever).
“Pez Candy is beloved by children and adults alike,” said EMA CEO and founder Lee Nelson in a statement accompanying the announcement. “With Cameron Fay we’ve created a world unique to Pez and a story that will touch the hearts of many.”

There’s no word on what sort of story a Pez movie will follow, but given that we’ve already seen plans for a movie about emojis move forward, anything is possible at this point. Over 3 billion PEZ candies are now consumed in the U.S. each year, and everything from DC and Marvel comics characters to NASCAR drivers and the rock band KISS have been featured as PEZ dispensers.

Like.. Tim and Eric's Billion Dollar Movie, but with pez?

I kind of forgot pez existed until recently when my step-son showed me his collection of (empty) Marvel pez dispensers (he'd ate all the candy).

I can't imagine what they'll do with it. Werewolves and witches would be a good start though.

I was thinking more like a LEGOS movie ripoff.
