OPERATION HEAD PIGEONS

How many fans does Operation Head Pigeons have now? How many do you need to bring back Zim?

Well it is not that easy. Number count increases likelihood we can meet a goal but we’re not a web petition list of names or anything. That’s not an accurate/unbiased measurement of a show’s likelihood to succeed. Anyone can click a button and anyone can set up multiple emails.

I can't seem to find Invader Zim on Netflix! Last time I checked Zim wasn't listed under "Just for Kids" anymore and had to find it through search. I also saw that when I clicked on it, there was a date on the side that said "Streaming Until" or something like that. I can't remember the date, but it must have past. Do you thin we'll see Invader Zim again on Netflix?

All Viacom shows are off Netflix for the time being. Netflix is opting to get specific Viacom shows rather than all of ‘em in the future. I’m sure Zim is successful enough for Netflix to want it.
If not…. we got iTunes!

Invader Zim Convention Needs Your Help! (An Official Press Release)

Fri, 17 May 2013 11:07:00 -0500

FANS TURN TO KICKSTARTER TO HELP CREATE ANOTHER INVADER ZIM THEMED CONVENTION.

Funding reached 60% in less than ten days, but it still needs help to succeed over the next two weeks!

(ORLANDO, May 17, 2013) InvaderCON, the unofficial Invader ZIM fan convention, is attempting to create a third event planned to take place somewhere in the middle United States in 2014 through the use of crowd funding. The event, being built via the popular Kickstarter website, was conceived as an opportunity for fans of the popular Invader ZIM cartoon to meet members of the show’s cast and crew, but were unable to do show when the convention was hosted on the East Coast in 2011 and the West Coast 2012.

The project’s funding goal of $33,333 was agreed upon by the convention’s promoters, Green Mustard Entertainment, based on the basic operational costs of the first two InvaderCON events: space rental, flights, hotel stays, insurance, etc. From the InvaderCON III Kickstarter page:

“The biggest problem, though, was time and resources vs. risk. While Green Mustard Entertainment is a company, it’s NOT the “primary job” of any of the owners or staff. It’s a creative fan convention company that designs events to support the geek community.

Ars gratia artis and whatnot.

InvaderCON, unlike our other projects (like Florida Anime Experience,) isn’t an annual show in a local city. Normal conventions build a fan base in a specific area and continue to grow. InvaderCON’s attendees (at both conventions) are only about 20% locals. Over 80% of InvaderCON attendees are from outside the convention’s host city. This makes predicting attendance and budgeting VERY tricky and EXTREMELY risky.”

Fans who contribute via Kickstarter, regardless of amount, will have a voice in selecting the host city for the convention (tentatively named “InvaderCON III: FINAL DOOM.”) Pledge levels include perks such as passes, t-shirts, items signed by voice actors, and more.

While the Kickstarter Project launched with amazing momentum, the fans and Green Mustard Entertainment are reaching out to various online blogs and news sources to help get the word out to make this project a success.

Complete details of the Kickstarter can be found at www.invadercon.com/kickstarter.

We haven't heard from you guys for a few weeks, something's going on with the revival plan I take it?

I do the most public work on Facebook and I’ve been caught up in school. We wanted to get a big side mission going but Nicktoons needs to put Zim back on rotation again for it to work.

I heard that Jhonen signed a contract with Nick to bring back the show. Some video on Fanpop is what started these rumors. But are they true? Is the show coming back ~Night

That video is old and based on information taken out of context. Always check for credibility and sources.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, INVADER ZIM!

Twelve years ago, today, Invader Zim (And Fairly Odd Parents) premiered on Nickelodeon. While Fairly Odd Parents is still in production at some form today, Zim’s original run didn’t last more than two years. But for some reason, over a decade later the fanbase is still going strong. Every day I’m amazed at how popular this show still is! Let’s keep it alive for many more years to come!

The Kids Choice Awards are coming up, who here thinks that Invader Zim should be nominated for Best Cartoon? If not this year, then what about 2014? Overall, Zim deserves an award of some kind.

Fri, 22 Mar 2013 00:53:57 -0500

Let’s wait until it’s in production first. :)

Has there been any word on if Nickelodeon is even considering bringing back IZ?

Thu, 21 Mar 2013 18:51:16 -0500

We noticed that two months after Project Massive… Zim went from graveyard slot on Nicktoons all week long to then having breakfast and daytime hours on weekdays.
It is now going to be on Saturday mornings instead of when kids are in school or are in bed.

jhonenv:

Just like the headline says, guys, there’s some screen prints, they’re for sale, you can buy them, but you’re still gonna die someday. OH WAIT, MAYBE YOU WON’T IF YOU BUY THESE PRINTS! (You will definitely die despite the sales pitch)

The original designs for these were for a ZIM convention that took place last year, but these have been slightly altered so that they’re from the future, just about a thousand years in the future to be exact.

The future rules, ladies and gentleman.

They’re a bit smaller than the original prints, there’s a bit more color, they’re from the future. Also, the chipboard stock they’re screen printed on is so horribly thick that they barely bend and is so heavy, if swung at just the right angle, could probably chop a person’s head off.

If you succeed in chopping a head off with one of these prints, please send photos.

Prints are signed with a general sense of ambivalence.

Ok. Thanks!!!! I will. But, I had an idea; to help put IZ back on air, why don't we have a fundraiser????? Get a whole group of people in an area and try to raise money to help fund IZ???? It can show nick that there are still many fans that care and show they can make money. So, how dose my most awesome idea sound ???

Fri, 08 Mar 2013 20:28:04 -0600

We’re asked that a lot and the fact is Nickelodeon has the money but they need the proof it won’t be a wasted investment. We will not ask fans to pool money because it feels sketchy. If a cast or crew member led it we’d support it but there’s no need anyhow.-Johnny

Hey, I can't find it, but what's the address to ship our letter to??? Also, I don't have a facebook or twitter but , what can I do to help in any way possibe to save invader zim??? I MUST HELP!!!!,,,

Fri, 08 Mar 2013 17:04:06 -0600

project massive ended and we await results which can take some time. continue to support by contributing to the fandom. fanart, forums, fanfiction, roleplay, etc
buy merchandise you genuinely want (hottopic.com or welovefine.com) await new games from artofplaygames.com

jhonenv:

A person on Twitter sent me this old Halloween photo of theirs and it is now my favorite, most hilarious photo of people dressed as my characters. Squee looks like Batboy from the Weekly World News, and he’s ENORMOUS. The other kid looks like he maybe murdered GIR and then wore his skin like a suit.

All in all, this photos is fantastic and it makes me laugh. Would look at again.

Look what Jhonen posted!

Today's A Big Day

Tue, 26 Feb 2013 11:52:52 -0600

In less than three hours Nickelodeon unveils new programming to their advertisers at a private event in New York called an Upfront.
Let’s get straight to the point:
We are very confident in Project Massive working however it takes a lot of time for the show to be greenlit by the powers that be.

We are are very sure that we WON’T be hearing any Zim announcements at today’s Upfront. It’ s just too soon. So what we DO intend to do, as stated before on our other pages is this:

We are getting in touch with various inside connections to see if they heard anything on the success of Project Massive. We were told something juicy in November however our informant admits it was an idea being thrown around: nothing official. So we’ll keeping shaking the trees and seeing what falls on our heads.

We thank you for your patience and can tell you this much: we continue to be a news source primarily through our Facebook page and SOON will be merging with my own pet project Zim site TheIrkenAntennae.com where OHP will serve as a voice of the fandom in all things quality Zim while the Antennae covers the news. Should be exciting! =D

the algonquin taco truck? ive heard about it on facebook, but whats up with it?

Mon, 04 Feb 2013 11:03:30 -0600

What we know is this: The voices of Zim and Gir (Richard Horvitz and Rikki Simons respectively) and Eric Trueheart are making a comedy podcast. They will invite various other familiar faces from Invader Zim as well. It’s still in production and I’m pretty excited about it.
-CB Johnny

Are you against shipping in the show? To me, the atmosphere of Invader Zim and romance don't mix.

Tue, 15 Jan 2013 16:54:07 -0600

Love and affection has no place within the show’s canon and universe according to Jhonen.

I am of the mindset that what fans enjoy and express themselves with is their own business.
-CB Johnny

They made a Star Trek Online, would they consider an Invader Zim Online?

Mon, 14 Jan 2013 10:34:03 -0600

not the time to do that.
It’s wiser to make flash games for webpages and mobile apps.
Check out GameSlave2.com and ArtofPlayGames.com for a look at what’s in store for Zim games!
