"From a young child I was already destined to make one movie and that movie was 'Popeye,'" says director Genndy Tartakovsky, who has been tasked to make Sony Animation's feature film rendition of the iconic character. While the man behind 'Hotel Transylvania' and his team are hard at work on the animation, the studio has released some test footage to give us an idea of what we can expect.

"Popeye" was heard on NBC radio for the first time.  We all know Popeye as the one-eyed sailor who was always battling with Bluto.  Mostly fighting over the love of the ever skinny, flat-chested, off-key singing Olive Oyl.  Enjoy this clip of featuring the Popeye theme song and then login to your Classic Rewards Club Account right now and enter the keyword Popeye for your chance to win..

The cartoon character ‘Popeye’ is missing an eye, right? He’s always got one closed and he is a sailor, so it’s likely that he lost one handling hooks, or fighting with some aquatic creature. But even though Popeye can’t see stereoscopically, he’s getting the animated 3D treatment from director Genndy Tartakovsky.
