150. FernGully: The Last Rainforest

FernGully: The Last Rainforest is an animated feature produced by Kroyer Films, presented by FAI Films and distributed by 20th Century Fox and first released on April 10, 1992. It is a film with a strong environmentalist theme adapted from the Fern Gully stories by Diana Young. The film features the voice talents of Tim Curry as Hexxus, Robin Williams as Batty Koda, Samantha Mathis as Crysta, Christian Slater as Pips and Jonathan Ward as Zak. The film was the first of three animated features released in consecutive years by Fox in the early 1990s: Once Upon a Forest (1993) and The Pagemaster (1994) followed. None of these films were financially successful.

The film was followed by an unsuccessful direct-to-video sequel, FernGully 2: The Magical Rescue, which featured none of the original voice talents.

The film tells the story of Fern Gully, a rainforest near Mt. Warning, Australia (perhaps named after the Upper Ferntree Gully in Victoria, Australia). A curious and mischievous fairy girl named Crysta (Samantha Mathis) sees a part of the world she has never seen before beyond the rainforest and believes humans dwell only on the nearby mountain. But the wise sprite of the forest and Crysta's mother figure, Magi Lune, says humans are extinct (but in the opening scene of the movie she says that they fled, never to return). Befriending a mentally unstable yet comical fruit bat named Batty Koda (Robin Williams) who has been experimented on by humans and now has wires and aerials fused into his head, Crysta heads into the unknown where she finds dead trees all covered in red aerosol paint crosses. She finds male humans, and accidentally shrinks one named Zak to prevent him being crushed by a tree.

Zak (Jonathan Ward) goes on a wild adventure with Crysta and Batty, nearly getting eaten by the lizard Goanna (Tone Lôc), unexpectedly falling in love with Crysta which adds rivalry to Pips' (Christian Slater) hidden feelings for Crysta, which results in strong jealousy against Zak, getting Zak bullied by him and his gang of idiot bugs. Meanwhile throughout the rest of the time tries to separate him and Crysta, trying to get Crysta to notice him in a different light, more rapidly than previous attempts before Zak's arrival. All the while, Zak's superiors—lumberjacks to be exact—chop down an enchanted baobab tree that releases an evil known as Hexxus (Tim Curry), the spirit of destruction, who wishes to get revenge upon the fairies of Fern Gully (specifically Magi Lune) for imprisoning him in the tree many years ago. Hexxus apparently gains power from pollution, specifically the energy and smoke produced by the Leveler, as he can be seen "drinking" from it like a liquid. He manipulates the lumberjacks and their tree leveler into tearing down the rainforest in the direction of the fairies by the next morning, thereby destroying the very fabric of their world. He does this under the vocal guise of their boss.

The fairies all join forces and fuse their powers together, creating a protective tree cage. Magi sacrifices herself (giving her power to the fairies and even Zak) and it is up to Crysta and the other fairies to defeat Hexxus. Zak turns off the leveler, causing Hexxus to lose the energy he was gaining from it and disappear, but he soon rips out of the machine as a giant demonic skeleton creature made of oil that breathes fire. Crysta seemingly sacrifices herself like Magi did by allowing Hexxus to devour her in one bite, and uses her powers from inside him to grow flowers to again imprison Hexxus (together with the leveler) inside a new tree with help from the fairies led by Pips, thereby imprisoning him forever. However, she emerges, unharmed and alive, from a flower soon after. Crysta sadly resizes Zak to normal size and he sets off with his fellow lumberjacks, Tony and Ralph, to try to stop the destruction of the rainforests. Meanwhile Crysta now takes Magi's place after learning finally how to control her powers.

149. Ghost in the Shell: S. A. C. Solid State Society

Ghost in the Shell: S.A.C. Solid State Society is the 2006 anime film based on the Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex series, which is based on Masamune Shirow's manga Ghost in the Shell. It was produced by Production I.G, who announced the film at the 2006 Tokyo Anime Fair, and was directed by Kenji Kamiyama. The film had a production budget of 360 million yen (equivalent to US$3.2 million).

In order to provide theatrical quality, the film premiered on the Japanese satellite PPV platform SKY PerfecTV! Perfect Choice ch160, on September 1, 2006. It also aired in Japan on the anime satellite TV network Animax starting May 27, 2007. The film was also released on DVD in Japan on November 24, 2006 and was released in the U.S. by Bandai Entertainment and Manga Entertainment, in a normal and limited edition on July 3, 2007. It was announced at Anime Expo 2006 that Solid State Society is not scheduled to be the final iteration of the Stand Alone Complex series.[citation needed]

The Sci Fi Channel aired Solid State Society as to inaugurate its Ani-Monday programming block on June 11, 2007 at 11:00 p.m. Eastern Time. It aired in widescreen. The channel also chose to air the original adult footage with nudity blurred rather than using an alternative 'drawn in' version.

The story takes place in the year 2034, two years after the events in Ghost in the Shell: S.A.C. 2nd GIG. Female cyborg Major Motoko Kusanagi has left Public Security Section 9, an elite counter-terrorist and anti-crime unit specializing in cyber warfare, which has expanded to a team of 20 field operatives with Togusa acting as the field lead. Section 9 is confronted by the mysterious suicides of thirteen operatives of the disbanded Siak Republic in Indonesia, remnants of which found asylum in Japan. At the airport, they manage to catch up to Ka Gael (a former Siak colonel and son of Ka Rum, the exiled dictator of the Siak Republic) who has taken a hostage in the hope of gaining safe passage out of the country. Ka Gael says fearfully that "Kugutsu Mawashi", or "Puppeteer"[3], is coming before killing himself.

Due to the numerous suicides, Chief Aramaki asks the Prime Minister for permission to arrest Ka Rum, but she declines stating that it would weaken her position if it is revealed. Aramaki decides to disobey her and conducts an unauthorized raid on Ka Rum's home. They find that he has been dead for some time, due to an apparent assassination disguised as a suicide. In addition, before he died, Ka Rum wrote "Puppeteer" on the floor in his own blood. They also discover plans for Siak operatives to deploy a micromachine virus in a terrorist attack as revenge in the event of Ka Rum's death.

Batou is sent to intercept the Ma Shaba, the operative who received the micromachine virus, when he unexpectedly runs into the Major, who claims to be making an independent inquiry. The Major is attacked by Ma Shaba, who fears that she is Kugutsu Mawashi, from inside an armored vehicle that he believes protects his cyberbrain from being hacked. However, before either Batou or the Major can apprehend him, he dies inside the vehicle as a result of an apparent cyberbrain attack. The Major takes a case of virus ampules and warns Batou to stay away from the Solid State Society before driving away. Batou does not immediately reveal to Section 9 that he encountered the Major, claiming instead that Ma Shaba attacked him, with no apparent provocation. Section 9 develops a theory that Kugutsu Mawashi is a hacker surpassing wizard class who hacked into the Siak agents' cyberbrains and forced them to commit suicide.

Togusa also discovers sixteen kidnapped children in Ma Shaba's facility. The conclusion is that Ka Rum's revenge plot was to disseminate the micromachine virus into the public using the children as carriers. While trying to determine their identities in order to return them to their families, Section 9 discovers their cyberbrains had been replaced and their memories partially erased with their personal IDs assigned to fake parents. In each case, the fake parents were "Noble Rot Senior Citizen", bedridden elderly connected to the healthcare monitoring network, which takes care of their basic needs but results in its users becoming nearly comatose. Investigating the source of the children held by the Siaks, Section 9 discovers a discrepancy in the records of various government agencies that suggests that over 20,000 unreported child kidnappings had taken place over the last two years. Their investigation is halted by a sophisticated attack on their computer systems, which confirmed that someone was trying to cover up the massive number of missing children and suggested a much larger conspiracy than they were initially investigating, as the number of abductions exceeded what Ka Rum's organization could plausibly accomplish. Meanwhile, a case of virus ampules taken from Ma Shaba are left at a government building, leading Section 9 to believe that the Puppeteer was attempting to lead them into an investigation of the kidnappings. In fact, the ampules were left by the Major.

The Puppeteer hacks into Proto and the operators tending to the sixteen children rescued from the Siak operatives, and all of the children go missing. Because of this development, Batou tells Togusa about his encounter with the Major, and voices his suspicion that the Major may be the Puppeteer.

Raj Puhto, a Siak operative and elite sniper who was the head of Ka Rum's bodyguard, surfaces in Japan. Batou and Saito are dispatched to intercept him. They locate him but are spotted before they can apprehend him, forcing Puhto and Saito to engage in a sniper duel in which Puhto is incapacitated. In response to Batou's questioning, Puhto reveals that he had received intelligence from a mole within the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, a representative named Munei Ito, that fingered his target as the mastermind of the assassination of Ka Rum. However, it is revealed that Munei Ito himself was Puhto's target. Batou suggests that Puhto may have been set up by the Puppeteer. Puhto agrees that this may have been the case, and says he would kill the Puppeteer, "were he only human". He claims that the Puppeteer is a child abduction infrastructure built into the Solid State, which he identifies as the healthcare monitoring network, and implies that the Japanese government is involved in its operation. Batou speculates that Ka Rum was killed and his organization targeted because they discovered the infrastructure and attempted to use the abducted children for their own ends.

Meanwhile, Togusa tracks one of the sixteen children to the apartment of a Noble Rot Senior Citizen man connected to the health monitoring system. The man was the one named as the boy's guardian in the boy's altered personal ID. When Togusa picks the boy up, the man emerges from his seemingly comatose state to demand the return of the child, saying that he had named the child as his sole heir as he would rather leave his assets to the child than to the government after his death, and claiming that the child would have been abused if he were not placed in his care. He says that this is the will of the Solid State, and warns that if Togusa interferes with their enterprise he will become 'another suicide'. The man dies immediately afterward. Togusa gives the boy over to the authorities, pointing out the ID error. Afterward, he comes to the realization that had he not interfered the boy would have been passed on to social services and adopted after the death of his Noble Rot Senior Citizen guardian. This, he realizes, was the plan of the Solid State all along.

Unexpectedly, Togusa receives a phone call from his wife saying that his daughter has gone missing. He rushes home, but is cut off by someone from the GPS system. He assumes this is a retaliation from the Solid State Society, but is confused, because his daughter doesn't have a cyberbrain, making her invulnerable to the Puppeteer's hacking. When he reaches home it turns out to be a false alarm, as his daughter was only at the neighbors' house. However, as he drives her to school, he receives a phone call from the Puppeteer stating that the Solid State will take his daughter away from him because he ignored their warning, after which his cyberbrain is hacked over the phone.

Togusa, now controlled by the Puppeteer, drives his daughter to a cyberbrain implant hospital, trailed all the way by the Major. He is also tracked down by Batou and Section 9, who realised that he had been hacked. During the hacking, Togusa converses with the Puppeteer, who claims that members of the Solid Society "only wish to utilize resources that have slipped through the net of society". Togusa realizes that this was how all of the children were abducted: the parents' cyberbrains were hacked, and the parents were made to personally escort their children for a cyberbrain transplant operation, since the procedure would not raise suspicion if the parents themselves took the children in and approved it. Afterwards, the parents' memories were altered to make them believe that they had lost the children. The Puppeteer offers Togusa the alternative of committing suicide rather than having his child abducted. Togusa accepts the alternative and attempts to kill himself just as Batou arrives, but the Major stops him before he can carry it out.

The Major explains that she stumbled across the case of the missing children while wandering alone through the net in the years since she left Section 9, and set up Togusa as bait to unmask the identity of the Puppeteer. She explains that he is a rhizome formed by the collective consciousness of the Noble Rot Senior Citizen when they connected together over a hub cyberbrain in the healthcare monitoring system. The hub cyberbrain itself is in constant flux within the rhizome. Several Tachikoma AIs, which the Major restored after dredging their memory unit in cyberspace, assist her in locating the current location of the hub cyberbrain: the Seishomin Welfare Center, where the healthcare monitoring system is managed.

The Major temporarily rejoins Section 9 to help the investigation. They focus on the target of the Raj Puhto's assassination attempt, Munei Ito (an ultra conservative member of the House of Representatives who advocates a racially pure Japan). The Major reveals that Munei Ito was part of the plan to assassinate Ka Rum: she explains that she had a contract with the Treaties Bureau, an organisation that Munei had close ties with, to carry out Ka Rum's assassination. However, by the time she got there, the Puppeteer had already killed Ka Rum. Munei also wields de facto control over the Seishomin Welfare Center, which he and other politicians arranged as a front for an "elite training facility" - a brainwashing facility to develop new members of the "elite cadre". The Major speculates that Munei was targeted for elimination by the Puppeteer because his brainwashing facility at Seishoman was interfering with the goals of the Solid State Society, which housed kidnapped children at the same facility.

After analyzing the building's systems and layout, Section 9 determines that Seishomin must have been designed and built with the abduction infrastructure included from the beginning, which means that the Puppeteer must have been one of Seishomin's system designers. They decide to conduct a raid of the facility, despite the political consequences that such an unauthorized action would have, to prevent the Puppeteer from slipping away.

Section 9 penetrates Seishomin's significant defenses, with the help of the Tachikoma, who are returned to their physical bodies. Chief Aramaki confronts Munei Ito, who admits to taking money from the Noble Rot Senior Citizen to fund his "education" program. He justifies it by arguing that they provide nothing for society but are exempt from taxation, so they must be made to pay back into the system in some way. However, he was unaware of the Solid State abduction system, believing the children in his program were orphans. A designer, Takâki Koshiki, steps forward and claims responsibility for the Solid State system. He shoots himself in the head immediately afterward. The Major attempts to dive into his cyberbrain before his memories are lost, and enters a conversation with him.

Koshiki explains that his actions were motivated by several problems: The more than six million Noble Rot Senior Citizen, the rising unemployment rate and shrinking working population, the low birth rate, and the fact that thousands of children die needlessly each year as a result of abuse. The Solid State Society was his attempt to utilize the lost resources of the Noble Rot Senior Citizen and abused children. He altered the household registrations of children in high-risk homes to place them in the care of the Noble Rot Senior Citizen, giving the children new opportunities and giving the Noble Rot Senior Citizen a purpose in life, as well as the ability to leave a successor despite their lack of children, and to prevent their assets from being seized by the state upon their death. The Noble Rot Senior Citizen readily agreed to participate. Koshiki further elaborates that he attempted to eliminate Munei because he intended to brainwash the children to become part of the elite cadre, which was counterintuitive to the goals of the Solid State Society, which wanted the children to have free will.

Koshiki then reveals his trap. He shot himself in the head only to entice the Major to connect to his cyberbrain, whereby he could hack into her mind. With his new control over the Major's cyberbrain, he causes her to perceive his face reforming to its original shape, the damage from the bullet wound reversing. The Major calls him an "arrogant, self-righteous ass", and asks him who he really is. He responds, "How many arrogant, self-righteous asses do you know?" He transforms his face through images of Batou, Togusa, the Laughing Man, Kazundo Gouda, Chief Aramaki, Hideo Kuze, and finally the Major herself. The scene then moves to Koshiki's body in a storage case alongside various "puppet" bodies used by the Major throughout the film. He says that he was initially spread across many egos. However, the emergence of a collective consciousness acting autonomously resulted in a Solid State, which allowed him to move into the society beyond as "the vanishing mediator".

The film's denouement sees Chief Aramaki and Togusa discussing the future of the abducted children, whose fates will likely be left in the hands of the justice system. The Seishomin building is being emptied. The Major is at Section 9's headquarters, recovering from the effects of merging so deeply with Kogutsu Mawashi's mind. Batou explains the story of the real Koshiki to the Major when she regains consciousness. Koshiki had gained special permission to work entirely from home via a cybernetic body, due to his skill. When he was brought into Munei's project, he built the Solid State Society into the system. However, his physical body died of illness soon after, and had actually been dead for two years before anyone noticed his death, because he never dealt personally with anyone. In this time, his cybernetic body continued to act under his control. Batou ruminates on the possibilities that either Koshiki uploaded his actual consciousness onto the network formed by the Noble Rot Senior Citizen, or his cybernetic body was controlled by the subconscious will of their collective consciousness. Thus, the actual identity of the Puppeteer remains a mystery. Batou says that the Tachikoma should have kept a record of the Major's conversation with the Puppeteer, but claims that it was erased in the white out when he died. Batou's own memory of the conversation may have been altered, although he seems to allude that his suspicion is that she is and that her secret is safe with him.

The film ends with a direct allusion to the first movie, as the Major ruminates on her inability to bring herself to break free of the restraints placed upon her. As the shot pulls out to show the city, she repeats the famous line, "The net is indeed vast and infinite."


Solid State Society is the story of Motoko Kusanagi's return to her Section 9 family. At the end of the film the ultimate identity of Kugutsu Mawashi is never solved in the minds of the characters. It is ultimately left up to the viewer to decide who he is.

According to one theory, Kusanagi herself is behind the identity of Kugutsu Mawashi: Once Kusanagi became disillusioned after the incident involving Hideo Kuze, she left the physical world of Section 9 to "sojourn in the net". While her consciousness inhabits the net, a consequence is that her subconscious acts out her dreams in the physical world. It crystallises the will of the Old-Age Kifu, and the whole conspiracy at the Seishomin Welfare Center develops.

This is substantiated in the film, in the scene where Motoko returns to her apartment. She encounters the remote body of the Civil Servant, Takaaki Koshiki in her hallway with surprise. By comparing the placements of the bodies in this scene, with the spaces in the rack when Motoko returns to her apartment it is apparent that this remote body is one of those missing, and thus the one she passed with surprise in the earlier scene. Additionally, later in the scene where she brain-dives Takaaki Koshiki, this remote body is shown to belong to her as it steps out of a rack of remote bodies identical to the one inside Motoko's apartment and walks through the door.

148. Sinbad: Legend of the Seven Seas

Sinbad: Legend of the Seven Seas is a 2003 animated film produced by DreamWorks SKG with voices of characters from Brad Pitt, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Michelle Pfeiffer, and Joseph Fiennes.

The mainstream part of the plot begins when Arabian pirate named Sinbad is sent on a quest to find the legendary Book of Peace, a mysterious artifact that Eris, the Greek goddess of chaos, has framed him for stealing. Given his background as a pirate, Sinbad's accusers do not believe his protestations of innocence. Sinbad's childhood friend Prince Proteus of Syracuse intervenes, offering to stay imprisoned in Sinbad's place while Sinbad quests to recover the book; if Sinbad cannot recover the book and does not return in the time allotted for his quest, Proteus will receive Sinbad's death penalty and will be executed in his place. Initially, Sinbad would prefer to flee to the far corners of the world rather than undertake such a dangerous quest, hoping that Proteus' father will find some way to save his son; however, Sinbad discovers that the Lady Marina of Thrace, Proteus's spirited fianceé, has stowed away on board, determined to ensure that Sinbad fulfills his obligation to his friend, her betrothed. Prodded by her (and his own conscience), Sinbad ultimately decides to undertake the quest.

This story takes the name Sinbad, the presence of a Roc, as well as the incident wherein Sinbad and Company encounter an island that turns out to be the back of some great sea-beast from the Arabian Nights; however, much of the setting is derived from Greek mythology, including a trip to Tartarus to recover the Book and an encounter with the Sirens. The plot scenario of Proteus taking Sinbad's place is similar to the legend of Damon and Pythias. Throughout the film, Eris appears as a sadistic femme fatale who speaks in a lugubrious voice and is constantly in sinuous motion. During the course of events, Marina becomes very attached to Sinbad.

Ultimately, Sinbad reaches Tartarus and enters it, accompanied only by Marina. He meets with Eris, and realizes that her true goal in the theft was to prod Proteus into surrendering his life for Sinbad's. The execution of the heir to the throne of Syracuse will throw the entire region into chaos for years to come; something the Goddess of Discord greatly desires.

Sinbad bargains for the Book of Peace; Eris agrees to surrender the book if Sinbad truthfully answers a question: if he cannot gain possession of the book, will he fulfill his promise and return to die in his friend's place instead? Sinbad says he will return, but Eris accuses him of lying and sends him and Marina back to Earth without the book. Sinbad admits to Marina that he was lying, and that he did not intend to keep his word and die, even to save the life of his friend. Marina begs him to flee, hoping to return alone to Syracuse and somehow save both Proteus and Sinbad. Sinbad, however now knows that neither he nor she could live with themselves if Sinbad abandoned Proteus to die. Out of good conscience, he travels back to Syracuse, where he embraces the death penalty. Before the executioner can kill him, Eris intervenes, furious at Sinbad for his actions. Sinbad quickly realizes that, despite doubting himself earlier, he has indeed kept his word to return to Syracuse and surrender his life for Proteus, and that Eris, as a goddess, is bound to hold true to her promise to give him the Book. She gives him the Book and disappears, promising to find other places to destroy. Sinbad opens the Book and fulfills its purpose. Having saved the day Sinbad bids good-bye to Syracuse, to embark on another voyage, leaving Marina behind, despite their burgeoning romance. Proteus, however, has realized that Sinbad and Marina have fallen in love, and bids Marina to go with Sinbad. She and Sinbad sail away, presumably to have many more adventures in the future.

147. Freddy as F.R.O.7

Freddie as F.R.O.7 is a 1992 British animated film written and directed by Jon Acevski. It is a parody of James Bond. The film was inspired by bedtime stories Acevski told to his son about his favourite toy frog working as a secret agent.

The tale takes place in the medival France. It tells of Prince Fredrick, who lived with his father in a huge castle by the ocean, and was taught magical powers. His mother got killed in a storm at sea. One day, Freddie went horse riding in the forest with his father, but after his evil aunt, Messina spooked the horse his father was riding, his father fell to his death from a great height. Freddie spotted a long, red cobra; he had never seen one of those in the forest before. Freddie became orphaned, and Messina took him in. Soon Freddie realises that the cobra he saw in the forest was Messina, and instead of killing Freddie, she transformed him into a slimy green frog and tried to capture him. Soon, both fall from the castle window and into the raging ocean, and Freddie is saved in the jaws of a giant sea monster. Messina blurts out she will rule the world and destroy Freddie. The monster really turns out to be Nessie, the Loch Ness monster. As Messina left, Nessie's tail became trapped by a boulder. She befriended Freddie, who in turn used his powers to free her tail from the boulder. Nessie took him near dry land, and notes that if Freddie ever needed her, he would whistle. Freddie then leaped into the night sky, and fell into a swamp full of frogs, where he would spend the rest of his childhood.

Freddie eventually grows up to become a member of the French secret service, known as F.R.O.7. He is then called to London by the British Secret Service, as some major famous buildings in the United Kingdom are vanishing. By the time Freddie arrives, Nelson's Column, Tower of London, Buckingham Palace, St. Pauls Cathedral, and Stonehenge are already missing. Freddie meets the Brigadier G (voiced by Nigel Hawthorne), who seems to have trouble keeping himself and his comrades from getting tangled up in the phonecord.

Freddie is introduced to Daffers and Scottie, a British woman who is an expert in martial arts, and a Scottish man who is an expert with weapons. Things take a turn for the worse as Canterbury Cathedral disappears. Freddie also meets Tribly, a sneaky member of the secret service.

After visiting the Grand National, Freddie discovers that the villain that is capturing the buildings is called El Supremo (voiced by Brian Blessed). Freddie also finds out that El Supremo is planning to steal Big Ben next. So Freddie, Daffers and Scottie hide on Big Ben and are captured by a giant robotic snake.

They go to a secret island in Scotland and discover that El Supremo plans to use the buildings, by shrinking them to a size of a trophy and using them as batteries to a giant crystal, which will send a powerful sleeping virus across the world, which will put people to sleep and eventually kill them. Scottie then freaks out as the last required building is captured: Edinburgh Castle.

Freddie and Scottie and thrown into a pool of sea monsters, while Daffers is hypnotised into worshipping El Supremo and his mysterious cobra.

Freddie whistles and Nessie appears to save them both from being eaten, and Scottie is saved from drowning. Nessie shows her family to Freddie, who then asks them to help defeat El Supremo by submerging the patrolling submarines. Freddie and Scottie save Daffers from the snake guards in disguise and the three return to stop El Supremo from conquering the world. They have to battle an army of soldiers, but in the process, Daffers and Scottie come too close to the crystal's energy and fall unconscious. Freddie manages to infilrate the crystal's energy with his mind powers and destroys it, but also falls unconscious. El Supremo and his snake arrive to kill Freddie, but he, Daffers and Scottie defeat El Surpremo by shrinking him down to an ant's size and trapping him in a matchbox.

The snake then reveals herself to be Messina, and she battles Freddie by shapeshifting into a gargoyle, hyena, scorpion and boa. But he uses his mind control to transform Messina into a buzzard and she flees. Brigadier G arrives in time, and Trilby is discovered to be a spy for the villains. Britain is restored to normal and Freddie heads off to deal with some bad guys in the United States.

146. The Many Adventures of Winnie The Pooh

The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh is a full-length animated film produced by Walt Disney Productions and first released on March 11, 1977. It is the twenty-second animated feature in the Disney animated features canon.

The film is actually composed of material from three previously released animated featurettes based upon the Winnie-the-Pooh books by A. A. Milne: Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree (1966), Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day (1968) and Winnie the Pooh and Tigger Too! (1974). Because of this, it is seen by some as the last of the Disney "package films" (movies consisting of two or more short segments), the bulk of which were produced by the studio to keep costs down during World War II. Pooh was produced for similar economic reasons. This is also the last film in the Disney canon in which Walt Disney had personal involvement, since one of the shorts (Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree) was released during his lifetime, and he was involved in the production of Blustery Day.

Its characters have spawned an industry of sequels, television programs, clothing, books, and toys. The film differs from the three individual shorts by having newly-created linking material, and an ending to give closure to the stories (based on the final chapter of The House at Pooh Corner). It was always Walt Disney's intention to create a feature film, but he decided to make shorts instead — after production had begun — to familiarize US audiences with the characters. All three shorts as well as future feature films boast classic songs by the Sherman Brothers including "Winnie The Pooh" and "The Wonderful Thing About Tiggers".

The film also inspired an attraction of the same name at Disneyland, Walt Disney World, and Hong Kong Disneyland. A much more elaborate attraction, also based on the film, opened in Tokyo Disneyland as "Pooh's Hunny Hunt".

The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh was first released on VHS, Betamax, CED videorecord, and laserdisc in the early 1980s. In 1996, it was re-released on VHS as part of the Masterpiece Collection. It was released on DVD for the first time in 2002 as a 25th Anniversary Edition, with digitally restored picture and sound. The individual shorts had also been released on their own on VHS in the 1990s.

The "Friendship Edition" DVD was re-released on June 19, 2007. All of the special features from the previous "25th Anniversary Edition" DVD were recycled; the only new addition being an episode of Playhouse Disney's computer-animated series My Friends Tigger & Pooh. The DVD re-release coincides with the 30th anniversary of the release of the film.

145. Pom Poko

Pom Poko (also known as The Raccoon War) is a 1994 Japanese animated film, the eighth written and directed by Isao Takahata and animated by Studio Ghibli.

Consistent with Japanese folklore, the Tanuki (Japanese raccoon dogs, Nyctereutes procyonoides) are portrayed as a highly sociable, mischievous species, able to use "illusion science" to transform into almost anything, but too fun-loving and too fond of tasty treats to be a real threat (unlike the kitsune and other shapeshifters). Visually, the Tanuki in this film are depicted in three ways at various times: as realistic animals, as anthropomorphic animals which occasionally wear clothes, and as cartoony figures based on the manga of Shigeru Sugiura (of whom Takahata is a great fan). They tend to assume their realistic form when in view of humans, their cartoony form when they're doing something outlandish or whimsical, and their anthropomorphic form at all other times.

It's worth noting to Western viewers that prominent testicles are an integral part of the Tanuki folklore, and they are shown and referred to throughout the movie, and also used frequently in their shapeshifting. This remains unchanged in the DVD release, though the English dub (but not the subtitles) refers to them as "pouches". Also, in the English dub, the animals are never referred to as tanuki, but incorrectly as raccoons.

The story begins with a prologue set in late 1960s Japan. A group of Tanuki is threatened by a gigantic and ongoing suburban development project called Tama New Town, in the Tama Hills on the outskirts of Tokyo. The development is cutting into their forest habitat and dividing their land. As construction continues, the story resumes in contemporary (early-90s) Japan where, with the amount of living space and food decreasing every year, the Tanuki begin fighting among themselves for the diminishing resources of their habitat until at the urging of the matriarch Oroku ("Old Fireball"), they decide to unify against the humans to stop the development.

Several prominent Tanuki lead the resistance, including the aggressive chief Gonta, the old guru Tsurugame, the wise-woman personage Oroku, and the young and resourceful Shoukichi. Using their illusion skills (which they must try to re-learn after having mostly lost and forgotten them), they stage a number of diversions including repeated attempts at industrial sabotage. All these temporary victories amount to nothing, however, as more workers immediately replace the ones who've been scared away. In desperation, the Tanuki send out messengers to seek the help of various legendary elders from faraway regions, while continuing their resistance at home.

After several years, one of the messengers returns bringing a trio of Tanuki elders from the distant island of Shikoku (where development is much less of a problem and or perhaps because, the Tanuki there are still worshipped much more actively). In an all-out effort at re-establishing respect for the supernatural, the entire group stages a massive "ghost parade" to make the human residents think the growing town is haunted. The strain of the massive illusion kills one of the elders, and the effort seems wasted when the owner of a nearby theme park falsely takes credit for the parade, claiming it was all just a publicity stunt.

With this tremendous setback, the unity of the Tanuki finally fails and they break up into smaller groups, each following a different strategy. One group led by Gonta takes the route of eco-terrorism, holding off workers for a time until they are eventually wiped out in a pitched battle with the police. Another group of Tanuki including Tsurugame and Oroku desperately attempt an option that was previously unthinkable; they arrange for television coverage and publicly reveal themselves to the media to plead their case against the destruction of their habitat. One of the two surviving elders becomes senile and starts a cult among some of the Tanuki who are unable to transform, eventually sailing away with them in a treasure-ship that takes them all to their deaths, while the other elder investigates the possibility of joining the human world as the last of the transforming foxes (kitsune) did before them.

When all efforts fail, in a last moving act of defiance, the remaining Tanuki stage one last grand illusion, temporarily transforming the urbanized land back into its pristine state to remind everyone (including themselves) of exactly what has been lost. Finally, their strength exhausted, the Tanuki most trained in illusion are left with no choice but to follow the example of the kitsune and abandon those of them who can't transform, to disperse and blend into the human society. And while the media appeal comes too late to stop the construction, the public responds sympathetically for the Tanuki, which pushes the developers to at least include some parks for the few non-transforming Tanuki left.

In a touching coda to the story, one day Shoukichi, who also joined the human world, is coming home from work when he sees another Tanuki running toward a golf course to meet his companions. Overjoyed, Shoukichi follows and joyfully transforms back into a Tanuki to join in the gathering. In an emotional final scene, Shoukichi's friend, Ponkichi (pictured below) addresses the viewer, asking humans to be more considerate of Tanuki and other animals less endowed with transformation skills, and not to destroy their living space.

144. Daffy Duck's Fantastic Island

Daffy Duck's Fantastic Island (also known as Daffy Duck's Movie: Fantastic Island) is a 1983 Looney Tunes film with a compilation of classic Warner Bros. cartoon shorts and animated bridging sequences, hosted by Daffy Duck and Speedy Gonzales.

The premise of the framing animation was a general parody of the popular 1970s/1980s television series Fantasy Island, with Daffy and Speedy playing caricatures of that series' principal characters, Mr. Roarke and Tattoo (respectively). The pair, stranded on a desert island, discover a treasure map which leads them to a magical, talking wishing well. The greedy Daffy proposes to use the power of the well, which obeys the commands of whoever holds the map, to make himself and Speedy rich by selling wishes for a hefty fee, and has the well transform the island into a tourist paradise. (This showcases the modern Daffy's short-sightedness along with his greed, as he could have easily used the well himself to wish for all the wealth he desired). As various Warner Bros. animated characters step up for their chance at the well, their wishes are fulfilled through the events of a classic Warner cartoon. Meanwhile, Yosemite Sam, cast as a pirate, and his first mate, the Tasmanian Devil, search for the map, which originally belonged to them (they had earlier lost their ship in a battle with Bugs Bunny). Eventually, the map is lost to all, and Daffy, Speedy, Sam, and Taz end up trapped on the once-again-deserted island. The well gives them three wishes individually. After Daffy and Speedy waste their wishes, Sam wishes for a ship, abandoning Daffy.

This was the first Looney Tunes compilation film to center on Daffy Duck, as the previous ones had centered on Bugs Bunny.

143. Flushed Away

Flushed Away is a 2006 computer animated British film directed by David Bowers and Sam Fell. It is a partnership between Aardman Animations of Wallace and Gromit fame, and DreamWorks Animation, and is Aardman's first completely computer-animated feature as opposed to the usual stop-motion. The film stars the voice talents of Hugh Jackman, Kate Winslet, Andy Serkis, Bill Nighy, Ian McKellen, Shane Richie and Jean Reno. The story was by Sam Fell, Peter Lord, Dick Clement & Ian La Frenais, and the screenplay was written by Dick Clement, Ian La Frenais, Christopher Lloyd, Joe Keenan, and William Davies. The film was released in movie theatres on November 3, 2006, and is distributed by Paramount Pictures. The film was rated PG by the MPAA for crude humor and some language. It was distributed in Switzerland, Spain, and Netherlands by Universal Pictures.

Roddy St. James is a decidedly upper-crust pet rat who makes his home in a posh Kensington flat. When a common sewer rat named Sid comes spewing out of the sink and decides he lives where he likes, especially as England are playing Germany in the FIFA World Cup final 2006 (a reference to the FIFA World Cup 2006, which was at the time upcoming (though the final was Italy Vs. France) and the 1966 World Cup final, which was England Vs. West Germany), Roddy schemes to get rid of Sid by luring him into the "jacuzzi", which is actually the toilet bowl. Sid may be an ignorant slob, but being a sewer rat, he's no fool when it comes to knowing his plumbing. He plays along and instead pushes Roddy in and flushes him away into the sewer. He is startled, and startles a slug, and as the camera pans it reveals an entire community of slugs that is startled.

Roddy meets Rita Malone, an enterprising scavenger rat who works the drains in her faithful boat, the Jammy Dodger. Rita does not like Roddy at all initially, but ends up taking him along as the villainous Toad sends his henchrats Spike, a short, jumpy rat, Whitey, a large, dim, albino former lab rat (when Roddy says he is not involved in whatever happens because he does not belong in the sewers and claims he is an innocent bystander Whitey mistakes his name for Millicent Bystander and is thus referred to from the rest of the movie), and "Thimblenose" Ted, a zombie-like rat with a thimble for a nose, after her because she had stolen back her father's prized jewel a long time ago. The Toad royally despises all rodents, and it doesn't help matters any when Roddy accidentally knocks over and destroys his collection of Buckingham Palace souvenirs. He decides to have them iced…literally. He attempts to freeze them with liquid nitrogen, but fails due to Rita's plan to get out of their (Rita and Roddy) situation. This is incidental to the Toad, because in their successful bid to escape, Rita has taken a uniquely-designed electric cable. During the escape, Roddy accidentally tears Rita's belt, and accidentally pulls down her pants, showing her blue underpants (in mid-tear, Roddy says that "there are things I want to do, sights I want to see". Upon revealing Rita's underpants, he quickly states "that wasn't on the list"). After this she uses the cable as a replacement, completely unaware of its significant value to the Toad. It is essential to the operation of the Floodgates, and therefore to his plan—to open the gates during halftime of the World Cup, and the ensuing mass bathroom break will flood the "city" and drown its population. He can then use the depopulated city as a home for millions of his own tadpole offspring.

After all the trouble of outwitting Toad and his henchrats, Roddy finds that the ruby is a fake and breaks it in front of Rita, enraging her, for she can now not get the money she needed for her family. Sorry about the development, Roddy promises a real ruby for Rita if she brings him back to Kensington.

Accepting the offer, the pair first stop to visit her family before setting off and they take to Roddy warmly. During Roddy's stay, he overhears a conversation that causes him to think that Rita had double-crossed him and, as revenge, he flees with the Jammy Dodger, soon stopping to Roddy's disbelief. When Rita catches up to him, even more enraged at what Roddy has done, he is stranded on a rubber ducky she used to catch up with him. Fortunately, Rita forgives Roddy when he explains that he heard her little brother suggest selling him to the Toad - he had been paying close attention to her family in admiration. More trouble arises soon enough, with the pair encountering Spike and Whitey in a remote-controlled toy boat, with Thimblenose Ted and others reinforcing them on eggbeater jet skis. Despite their arsenal, their pursuers fail miserably—now that the two have reached a resolution, they make a formidable team.

Incensed at his minions’ repeated failures, the Toad decides to send to France for his cousin — an infamous, if somewhat laid back and degenerate, mercenary known as Le Frog, who refers to his cousin as a fruitcake, due to his obsession with rats. He brings along his henchfrogs to intercept the duo and retrieve the cable, but fails, with Roddy and Rita using a plastic bag to lift them out of the sewer and take Roddy home, with the Jammy Dodger being sacrificed along the way. Inside the house, Roddy pays Rita her promised ruby and an emerald, then proceeds to show her around. She at first believes he has family in the home, but noticing his cage, she realizes he's a pet. Roddy tries to pass Sid off as his brother and says he's called Rupert, but Sid and Rita know each other. Rita continues to persuade Roddy to come with her, but he shows that he's too proud to admit he's lonely. Visibly upset by this, she departs for the sewers, but is soon captured by Toad's gang.

During a conversation with Sid about half-time, Roddy realizes Toad's plan completely and has Sid flush him back to the sewers to find Rita and save the "sewer city." Re-uniting with Rita, they win a fight against Toad, and the resulting wave generated by the flushing of hundreds of toilets during the FIFA World Cup half-time compromised with liquid nitrogen before it drowns the entire rat population. After being "renowned as heroes" by the rats, Rita and Roddy bring into commission the Jammy Dodger Mark Two and sets off with her and the entire brood for new beginnings. While Rita and Roddy live in harmony down in the sewers, Roddy's former owner comes back with a new pet - a cat, which frightens Sid. A newspaper article reveals England had lost on penalties.

The characters in the film are all rats, frogs and toads with an exception of some partially "unseen" humans.

* Roddy St. James (Hugh Jackman) - A cultured pet rat who resides in a posh flat in the London district of Kensington. Roddy's life is one of non-stop leisure (he begins the film by staging everything from volleyball and golf games to movie premieres with his owner's dolls). However, he is visibly lonely despite his perceived freedom. His personality is initially standoffish, nervous to the point of cowardice and self-centred, but he grows throughout the film to be brave and loyal to his friend Rita. Roddy is clearly very intelligent, though more naive and a lot less cunning and resourceful than Rita. A lot of the film's comedic moments centre around Roddy's clumsiness and subsequent apologising when inadvertently destroying his surroundings. Though despite these outbursts of almost Clouseau-level uncoordination, he is also apparently an excellent dancer. His name is probably a nod to late actor Roddy McDowell.
* Rita Malone (Kate Winslet) - a scavenger sewer rat who scrapes a living captaining her boat the Jammy Dodger (which is quite literally an old tub), in order to support her family. Though her luck seems to change with the discovery of a ruby supposedly fallen down the drain of Buckingham Palace, it is coveted by the fiercely Royalist crime boss "The Toad". Probably due to being "Big Sister" to an army of siblings, Rita's attitude to seemingly everything is one of no-nonsense authority, though she is visibly upset at both the loss of the ruby and the prospect of saying goodbye to Roddy. She seems to enjoy taunting the Toad's pursuing henchrats by slapping and wiggling her bottom.
* The Toad (Sir Ian McKellen) - an effete English toad and crimelord, exiled from the world above via a lavatory, who evidently parlayed his commanding nature and large size into a criminal empire in the rats' city. Blames ratdom at large for his fall from grace, to the point of hateful obsession. He is fanatically devoted to the Royal Family, and collects garish tourist souvenirs which he treats as high-class Objets d'Art. He initially appears to feel kinship with the equally-posh Roddy, until the latter's clumsiness results in the destruction of the beloved collection. His character is very similar to Mister Bridger, the character portrayed by Noel Coward in The Italian Job.[citation needed]
* Le Frog (Jean Reno) - a French mercenary frog, he is The Toad's cousin and leader of a cell of Gallic ninja frogs whom The Toad hires when his henchrats fail to deliver. Le Frog is quite disdainful of all things British (British wine seems to physically offend him, as well as the very idea of "York-shire puddings" and "Chips and Fish"). In particular his cousin, whom he describes at one point as "Le Fruitcake". His general attitude towards working for The Toad is weary duty tinged with familial embarrassment. Curiously, he is quite flirtatious with Rita, evidently not sharing his cousin's prejudices towards rodents.
* Whitey (Bill Nighy) - the less-intelligent of the Toad's right hand rats. In contrast to the berserk antics of Spike, Whitey, despite his hulking size, is actually very gentle and polite, even to those he is supposed to be intimidating. He is never seen engaging in any actual violence, which is probably why he manages to escape without serious injury during the film. Seemingly a reversal of the "evil albino" stereotype, Whitey was a former labrat "up top", and was used in shampoo experiments, which left his fur bright white, though it did cure his dandruff. He is apparently fond of curry, despite being left with, in his own words, "a bum like a Japanese flag" the next day.
* Spike (Andy Serkis) - the smarter of Toad's top two henchrats, which is admittedly not saying much. Described by director Sam Fell as "a sixteen-year-old in his first real job", Spike is characterised by a manic enthusiasm for villainy, despite being too stupid to be genuinely evil. He professes his middle name to be "danger", but it is actually "Leslie". Despite his small size, relatively young age and general ineptitude, he frequently chastises his friend and colleague Whitey for what he deems un-hitman-like behaviour (such as wearing pink mittens). He wields a large wooden nutcracker called "The Persuader", with which he performs intimidating (if unconvincing) ventriloquism. Spike spends the majority of the film being injured and is very touchy about having "little 'ands".
* Sid (Shane Richie) - A sewer rat who ends up in Roddy's house. Though slobbish and uncouth, he is not unintelligent, handily turning the tables on Roddy's clumsy attempt to get rid of him early in the film. Sid's choice of clothing was originally thought to be a tee shirt by Richie and in a featurette, he reveals that the clothing is in fact a pair of underpants.
* Fat Barry - a henchrat (Christopher Knights)
* Thimblenose Ted - a henchrat (Christopher Fairbank)
* Ladykiller - a henchrat (Sam Fell)
* Harold - a crackpot street prophet warning people against a flood he declares will render the city and its inhabitants "doooooooomed!"
* Police Constable Colin - a Police rat.
* Marcel - French frog, mime
* Fergus - Rita's large younger brother
* Shocky - one of Rita's brothers, who constantly zaps rats with a large Battery zapper. (Known for saying "They Call me Shockey". Roddey asks why and Shockey shocks him.)
* Liam - one of Rita's brothers, whom nobody listens to and is referred to as 'stupid' by his sister, Rita
* Tabitha - Roddy's human owner
* Mr. Malone - Rita's father (David Suchet)
* Mrs. Malone - Rita's mother (Kathy Burke)
* Granny Malone (Miriam Margolyes) - Rita's grandmother, who seems to be under the impression that Roddy is Welsh popstar Tom Jones and is, unexpectedly, a very fast swimmer.
* Rodint - rat street artist
* Slugs - Introduced first as one scared creature, they inhabit the sewers, and constantly reappear, often singing across many scenes as a Greek chorus. They supply the vocals to every piece of incidental music in the film.

This is Bill Nighy and Andy Serkis' second film together. The other being Alex Rider: Operation Stormbreaker.

This is also Sir Ian McKellen and Jean Reno's second film together. The other being The Da Vinci Code

142. Space Jam

Space Jam is a 1996 American live-action/animated film starring Michael Jordan opposite Bugs Bunny (voiced by Billy West) and the rest of the Looney Tunes characters. It was produced by Ivan Reitman, and directed by Joe Pytka (live-action), Tony Cervone, and Bruce W. Smith (animation). This film was released to movie theatres by Warner Bros. Family Entertainment on November 15, 1996.

Other voices included Bob Bergen as Porky Pig, Tweety, Hubie and Bertie and Marvin the Martian, Bill Farmer as Sylvester and Dee Bradley Baker as Daffy and Taz. The Looney Tunes crew did not return to movie status afterwards until 2003 in Looney Tunes: Back in Action (the year that Michael Jordan retired for good). Space Jam was also converted in a pinball and a video game by Acclaim Entertainment for PC-DOS, Sega Saturn and PlayStation. The film includes Looney Tunes such as: Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Sylvester, Tweety, Marvin the Martian, Foghorn Leghorn, Taz, Wile E. Coyote, Roadrunner, Porky Pig, Elmer Fudd, Yosemite Sam, Pepe LePew, Speedy Gonzales, Granny and Lola Bunny.

Aliens called Nerdlucks arrive on Earth to capture the Looney Tunes characters and take them back to Moron Mountain, an outer space theme park belonging to their boss, Mr. Swackhammer, voiced by Danny DeVito as the theme park is in need of a new attraction. Bugs Bunny convinces the aliens that the Looney Tunes must be allowed to defend themselves. Since the aliens are very short the Looney Tunes challenge them to a basketball game.

After viewing a reel on Basketball and finding out about the NBA, the aliens steal the talent of 5 NBA stars (Charles Barkley, Patrick Ewing, Muggsy Bogues, Larry Johnson and Shawn Bradley) and use it to transform themselves into the tall and muscular Monstars. Fortunately, the Monstars haven't stolen the talent of Michael Jordan because he has retired from basketball to pursue a career in baseball (a real-life event). Bugs Bunny gets Jordan to help them in their basketball game. After a hardened battle and despite taking several casualties (Bugs Bunny himself gets injured in the process) and with the timely arrival of Bill Murray, The Looney Tunes manage to win the game and their freedom. Swackhammer berates the Monstars for losing, but then they realize that since they're no longer smaller than him, they don't have to put up with his bullying anymore. They launch Swackhammer into space, and give back the stolen skills through the basketball they got it from, becoming Nerdlucks again. The Nerdlucks ask Bugs Bunny a request to stay in Looney Tune land, to which Daffy and Bugs reluctantly agree. Michael Jordan then gives back the talent where the "bad players" touch the ball and become normal again. Michael Jordan then decides to return to basketball, mirroring his real-life return.

Many major and minor characters from Looney Tunes shorts make appearances in the movie, and are even joined by Lola Bunny, a female hare that acts as Bugs' love interest.

Notable cameos include Wayne Knight (as Michael's new manager, Stan), Bill Murray (as himself, but mistaken by Swackhammer in the movie for Dan Aykroyd), Jim Rome, Larry Bird and Scottie Pippen.

The movie ends after the credits with Bugs, Porky, Daffy, the Nerdlucks and Michael saying the famous quote "That's All Folks".

Aside from Michael Jordan, who plays the lead role, Space Jam contains a liberal amount of NBA players and coaches appearances. Retired NBA great Larry Bird plays golf with Jordan, and when the Monstars steal the NBA players' skills, they invade a game between the Phoenix Suns and the New York Knicks, causing the Knicks' Patrick Ewing and the Suns' Charles Barkley to make in-game mistakes. In these scenes, the Knicks' Charles Oakley and Derek Harper and the Suns' A.C. Green, Danny Ainge and Paul Westphal (coach) are also on-screen.

Later in the film, Ewing and Barkley are joined by the now "gameless" Larry Johnson, Muggsy Bogues (the smallest player in NBA history) and Shawn Bradley (at 7-6, one of the tallest). Also, when the Los Angeles Lakers are trying to avoid playing basketball in fear of getting infected, Lakers Vlade Divac, Cedric Ceballos, Anthony Miller, and coach Del Harris make a short cameo. Similar short appearances are also made by NBA players Jeff Malone, Alonzo Mourning and Sharone Wright and TV commentators Jim Rome and Ahmad Rashad.

In addition, the NBA players make several insider jokes. When Barkley prays to God to give him back his skill, he swears to stop his trash talk and no longer have affairs with Madonna, sending up his image as a tough trash talker and in reference to his own real life affair with the singer. Also, Bradley contemplates becoming a missionary once again, again in reference to his own experiences as a Mormon missionary.

141. The Jetsons Meet The Flintstones

The Jetsons Meet the Flintstones is an animated TV flick, featuring the first meeting between the characters from two Hanna-Barbera cartoon shows, The Flintstones (1960) and The Jetsons (1962). This film was released on the 9th of November in 1987, produced by Hanna-Barbera Productions and debuted in syndication as part of the Hanna-Barbera Superstars 10 series.

While Elroy is busy working on a time machine (with Henry Orbit's help), George is ordered to come to Mr. Spacely's office for a discussion. Cogswell has been stealing Mr. Spacely's business ideas under his nose; blaming George for the problem, Mr. Spacely orders George to go spy on Cogswell. Disguised as Cogswell's robot dog, Centro, George finds out that Cogswell's new robot computer, S.A.R.A., has been seducing R.U.D.I. into leaking Spacely's secrets to her. Upon finding this out, George tries to go tell Mr. Spacely, but R.U.D.I. won't let him.

Thousands of years in the past, Wilma and Betty are trying to butter up Fred so that he'll agree to have their vacation in Honolurock. Fred, wise to their plan, ignores their advances and, while at the quarry, tells Barney that he plans to take the girls some place even better with the winnings he believes he will make at a poker game at the Water Buffalo Lodge tonight. Mr. Slate, however, wants him and Barney to work a late shift (Mr Slate is in danger of losing his company to Turk Tarpit, the owner of Tarpit Productions, a rival company), but they go to the poker game anyway, believing that Mr. Slate will never find out. But Mr. Slate is also at the poker game, so Fred tries disguising himself as a rich Texan (and Barney as his ladyfriend). Unfortunately, thanks to a spider intervening on the game, not only does Fred lose to Mr. Slate, but he and Barney are soon exposed, and Mr. Slate fires them.

Back in the future, Elroy finishes up his time machine. George doesn't believe it really works until Elroy uses it to send a girl he brought from Arabian times back to her own time. The Jetsons decide to use it to take a trip to the 25th century, with George wanting to get away from Mr. Spacely (and Judy wanting to get her mind off of a rock star boyfriend she just broke up with after seeing him with groupies). Right before Elroy gets the machine working, Astro accidentally sets the switch to "Past".

With no job, the Flintstones and Rubbles are forced to settle for a camping trip in the middle of nowhere (although Fred and Barney have not told their wives about getting fired), and without food as Dino has stowed away and eaten all the food they packed. Just as Fred and Barney are trying to set the tent up, the Jetsons show up in the time machine. At first, both sets of characters mistake the other for aliens until Fred and George eventually call out offering for peace. The families become fast friends (and Astro forms a friendly rivalry with Dino), and Fred, amazed by George's expand-o-matic bag containing futuristic gadgets (such as the anti-gravity belt and boots), decides to use the Jetsons' things to help Mr. Slate win against Turk Tarpit at the company picnic the coming week.

At the picnic, while Judy falls for a rock star named Iggy Sandstone, Fred introduces George to Mr. Slate, claiming him to be his distant cousin. Mr. Slate is reluctant at first to trust George, but since he is two points behind Tarpit, he accepts that he needs some help, especially with Tarpit's obvious cheating and the commentators constantly ridiculing him for "losing as usual", in exchange for giving Fred and Barney their jobs back with several advantages. When Tarpit cheats in the next event, which consists of throwing dinosaur shoes at a pole (which is actually the neck of a turtle-dinosaur instructed to accept only those thrown by Tarpit and deliberately miss Mr. Slate's), George uses his magnetic boots to make Mr. Slate's shoes land on the neck and Tarpit's miss, thus making Mr. Slate the winner by default. The next event is a footrace over a vat of hot coal (Tarpit again tries to cheat by putting thick socks on), and Fred enters for Mr. Slate, wearing George's anti-gravity belt. Despite falling over and burning his bottom, Fred manages to beat Tarpit and even Mr. Slate's score against Tarpit. Unfortunately, during the last event, which consists of catching a "pigosaurus" in the mud, Astro and Dino's continued chase scares the pigosaurus enough for it to jump in to Tarpit's hands, making Tarpit the winner of the picnic (interestingly enough, no replay is called despite the pets' interference). Enraged, Mr. Slate goes back on the deal and fires Fred and Barney again.

While Mr. Spacely continues to vent over his failing business, Henry and Rosie assemble a time machine retriever in order to bring the Jetsons back home. But just when they get it to work, the time machine does indeed return - but, due to a mishap, it ends up bringing the Flintstones and the Rubbles instead of the Jetsons. At first, Henry, Rosie, and Mac mistake the newcomers for the Jetsons, and so does Mr. Spacely. Upon seeing that they really are cavemen, Mr. Spacely introduces them to the press.

Stuck in the past, George asks Mr. Slate for a job. Slate, still angry at George for the picnic accident refuses at first, but when Tarpit offers to make George famous himself, Slate immediately employs George, making him his partner. As a "flying man from out of this world" (thanks to his anti-gravity belt), George becomes famous, and this makes the family so rich that they buy ownership of several businesses, including George buying a whole car lot and half of downtown, Jane possessing a clothing store and several beauty salons, and Judy becoming the manager for Iggy's band. Pretty soon, though, the Jetsons begin to experience great stress with their businesses. George cannot deal with the stress of owning so many businesses, Jane is not prepared for the pressure of owning so many clothing stores, and beauty salons, and to make matters worse, Judy goes through déjà vu when Iggy also leaves her for some groupies.

Mr. Spacely makes Fred the spokesman for his company, but R.U.D.I. accidentally leaks this information to S.A.R.A. Just as Mr. Spacely is introducing Fred to some important investors, Cogswell shows up and introduces Barney, who was angry with Fred for taking all of the glory, as his news spokesman, coaxing the businesspeople to him. Spacely is furious, and Fred becomes angry with Barney to the point where he actually throws Barney out of the window (Defenestration), although Barney survives the fall.

Meanwhile, Rosie asks R.U.D.I. to help her and Henry try to fix up the time machine so that they can go find the Jetsons. S.A.R.A. shows up at this moment and demands R.U.D.I. to get rid of Rosie; upon Rosie walking out, R.U.D.I. agrees that he'll do whatever he can to get the Jetsons back. They eventually do get it to work (it was just in the "off" position), and, after mistakenly landing in the Middle Ages, Rosie arrives in the Stone Age and finds her family. Able to return home, the Jetsons do so (taking Fred's car with them), but not before Judy reconciles with Iggy and tells him goodbye.

When Spacely sees Fred's ancient automobile, he decides to produce space-cars with an identical appearance. Cogswell tries to steal this information by sending Centro to take pictures (S.A.R.A. can no longer provide him information since R.U.D.I. told her off), but Dino and Astro manage to stop the robot dog from escaping, and Fred and Barney become friends again. Spacely's new retro-style space-cars become an overnight smash, and George turns his partnership with Mr. Slate to Fred, giving him and Barney their jobs back. However, Elroy tells them that the time machine has taken such a beating that it's broken for good now. All ends well, though, because when Mr. Spacely gives the cavemen their original automobile back, they're able to return to the Stone Age due to having absorbed the time machine's quadrapotents. (Or as George puts it, "that old car wants to go home as much as they do!"). The film ends with Fred screaming out his most famous catchphrase "Yabba Dabba Doo!"

The film has been released on VHS three times, first by Goodtimes, then by Kid Klassics (using the same cassette as the previous release), and most recently by Warner Home Video on July 3, 2001.[citation needed] Currently, there has not yet been a DVD release.
