News David Lynch Netflix Turned Down Snootworld‚ a Wackadoo Animated Project from David Lynch?! Lynch created the script years ago with Caroline Thompson‚ screenwriter for The Nightmare Before Christmas and The Addams Family By Vanessa Armstrong | Published on April 8‚ 2024 Comment 0 Share New Share David Lynch‚ the mastermind behind Twin Peaks and the Dune movie (pictured above) that came before Denis Villeneuves endeavors‚ started working on a script about Snoots with Caroline Thompson (The Nightmare Before Christmas‚ Edward Scissorhands‚ and 1991s The Addams Family) over two decades ago.I dont know when I started thinking about Snoots but Id do these drawings of Snoots and then a story started to emerge‚ Lynch told Deadline. I got together with Caroline and we worked on a script. Just recently I thought someone might be interested in getting behind this so I presented it to Netflix in the last few months but they rejected it.I also now cant stop thinking about Snoots and what the hell these magical creatures from Lynchs imagination might be like.According to Thompson‚ the script is wackadoo.It takes my breath away how wacky it is‚ she told Deadline. The Snoots are these tiny creatures who have a ritual transition at aged eight at which time they get tinier and theyre sent away for a year so they are protected. The world goes into chaos when the Snoot hero of the story disappears into the carpet and his family cant find him and he enters a crazy‚ magnificent world.Lynch had some thoughts on why Netflix made the dumb decision to pass. Snootworldis kind of an old-fashioned story and animation today is more about surface jokes. Old-fashioned fairytales are considered groaners: apparently people dont want to see them. Its a different world now and its easier to say no than to say yes. Someone please make this and make Netflix rue the day they passed on it! I want to watch this lil Snoot get teenier and enter the quantum realm‚ or whatever world Lynch has concocted with his brain cells. Let Lynch be Lynchian! Bring on the Snoots!
