Format
[edit]It has not been officially stated how the film is to be done. Some speculate it as a Flash cartoon and the director himself has hinted at this. However, some of the actors have mentioned being in a live-action or even rotoscoped film. There is some thought to it being an audio drama.
Availibility
[edit]Not wanting to confirm any rumours, the director has been quoted saying, "We have access to Stitch's Lair, a fan-site of Lilo & Stitch, so we might play it continuously on the home page if it's an audio drama. However, if it's a Flash cartoon, we'll give it a page for downloading. If it's a film of any other type, we'll just burn some DVDs and give them to family and friends."
