I remember getting this movie on video when it first came out. I was in first grade, and I was a huge Tiny Toons fan at the time. I watched it over a hundred times! Looking back, it still holds up today, and I highly recommend it to any fan of Tiny Toon Adventures!
It's really hard to do this movie justice because there are multiple stories going on at once, and they cycle around them throughout the entire video, but I'll do my best. There are two main stories and three minor stories:
The first main story involves Plucky as he tags along with Hampton and his family as they go on a road trip to Happy World Land, a theme park that Plucky has always wanted to go to. The road trip is a long and tedious trip, which ends up becoming a nightmare for Plucky as he learns that Hampton's parents are horrible people. They play car games that make no sense, bring their own food to restaurants, ignore Plucky's needs, and even pick up a dangerous hitchhiker who happens to be a wanted serial killer! This is easily the funniest story in the movie.
The second main story involves Buster and Babs who get into a water fight, but it ends up going to far, and they end up getting stranded on a river and drift away to the southern region of the country. While there, they encounter some dangerous inhabitants including a family of hillbilly possums who want to eat Babs, and a trio of alligator sisters who all want to marry Buster.
For the three minor stories, we have one where Elmyra wants to play with a cat, and she winds up going to the zoo and torturing all the innocent animals there (pretty much what you'd expect from her). Then we have one where Shirley the Loon reluctantly goes on a date with Fowlmouth to the movies, which ends up becoming a disaster. Finally, we have a story centered around Fifi (That's right; Fifi has her own story in this movie!) as she makes an attempt to meet her favorite movie star, Johnny Pew, and get his autograph; Johnny winds up taking Fifi under his wing but really winds up making her his slave.
I won't give away any of the outcomes of the stories, but they're very well-made, and once you see them, it'll give you some comfort knowing that your summer vacations were much better than the ones these kids had to some extent.
If you're a Tiny Toons fan, and you're looking for a fun movie to put on for your kids while they're on their summer vacation, then I highly recommend this one!
