From what I've heard, Frogs of War was financed separately from the rest of the movie. That's why the segment has its own name in the first place, to trick investors or whoever into thinking that it was an unrelated short film.

Actually 'Meet the Feebles' was originally meant to be a TV series pilot, but the Japanese investors insisted that they do a movie which would be lower risk. So the Vietnam scenes were shot after the fact to pad out the run time.

That's a common rumour, but it doesn't seem to have any basis in fact. Feebles was always an entire film concept. I think the fact that the Vietnam stuff was shot separately (due to budgetary reasons) helped create that rumour.

8:16 Fun Fact: One way they actually tried to fix that problem was releasing the movie cropped into widescreen (1.85:1) for cinema releases, rather than present it in it's original open matte full-screen (1.33 or 4:3) release as seen on home video. That's actually why some shots in the final film have a black bar on the top frame, as they intended to crop it them for a widescreen release.

Pro tip: You can fix the PAL version by running it through any editing software at 96% speed with "Preserve Pitch" turned off , or if the file is 25fps, put it in a 24fps timeline, and the speed/pitch should change automatically.

@mediamementosofficial Where can I learn more about your stage adaptation? you don’t need a massive budget to put on a stage musical, just concepts alone can bring a vision to life. Simply drawing the set or putting a collage of clothes and makeup for the costumes can be enough to give a good idea on how the stage version might work in your vision. There are lot of community who are more than willing to hear out your idea for a Meet The Feebles stage musical. Also since the owner of the rights barely care about copyright they might just give you the stage rights for free if you email them a pitch.

Seeing The Feebles in so high quality, feels quite surreal. I also remember the video also saying that "Meet the Feebles" bassicly ment something about diarrhea, but I don't find traces of this online (Google/Microsoft Bing doesn't help, like at all)... Could some New Zealand natives confirm or bust this for me, please. Nice job as usual!

And what Peter says its the true history Its like one of those """based off real events""" type of movies But again its just a Theory,if you have something more 'coherent' i will listen
