Heroball

Heroball is a 2008 American animated science fiction action film produced by TjsWorld2011 Pictures and Nickelodeon Movies for Paramount Pictures and DreamWorks Pictures. It was the eighth feature film from TW2011 Pictures, as well as DreamWorks' first animated film without its former animation division DreamWorks Animation, which was spun off into a separate public company in 2004. Set in the year 2245, the film follows a Heroball athlete who discovers a loophole in the sport and rushes to to find out why the The World District has been covering up this secret for years; however, his investigations prove to have dangerous consequences for the rest of the Heroball community.

The film was directed by TjsWorld2011 from a screenplay by him and Ntpockets. Its setting and plot were inspired in part by the novels 1984 (1949) and Brave New World (1931), as well as the films Metropolis (1927) and Tron (1982). Production began in May 2007, but was stalled by the 2007–08 Writers Guild of America strike. However, production resumed in February, and the film was later completed in March.

The film was released on August 8, 2008 by Paramount Pictures in the United States and by DreamWorks Pictures internationally. It received generally positive reviews from critics, who admired its story, themes, and setting, and earned $122.4 million worldwide over its $62 million budget, making it the ninth highest-grossing animated film of 2008. It was later released on DVD and Blu-ray on December 9, 2008.
