Get this:

The IMDb score for this film is 6.4 out of 10. An somebody on the boards is saying its the best animated kids movie EVER.

I don't need to watch the clip now. My brain has already melted out of my skull.

Just to reiterate what that one guy said on that previous post...

>You know, just to get her going for the day.

When I read this, I thought you were going to add, "She then prompty snorts it."

Wasnt that a rip off of my little poney and Strawberry shortcakes with a bit of the carebars?

I really dont remember this lame series, being a young kid at that time i used to watch the stuff that really matter GI JOE Transformers.

My daughters tried to watch this on cable one day, but I turned the tv off and forced them out the door until it was all over.  I'd rather sit through a 8 hour Smurfs marathon.

Now that is BAD!!!!

Hmmm... I don't know. That clip you showed didn't seem all that brain-damaging to me. That's not to say I'd enjoy a movie like this. I definitely wouldn't want to see it in any situation where I didn't have control over the volume (so that I could turn it way down during the sappy songs), but I don't think anyone would break if you used this as a torture method.

I'm game to try reviewing those Care Bear movies myself. (What, they made TWO of them?) I'm not big on movies for kids, but I always did have a liking for any kind of line drawings.

If you know what is good for you, you will not tell your daughters or nieces that this movie exists.


I'd almost forgotten about this sacrafice to the tv deity. Thanks for the flashbacks and the hiliarious review.


...the princess is really the best reason to see this one. Seriously. She drags a gigantic jewel around on a leash as a pet. Way to go lampooning sexism and consumerism in the same movie.

You know, I think I would like to see a children's movie where the evil brat takes a
.50 calibur round to the cranium.

I LOVE this movie.
Well I'm not a fan of this movie I have to say I do have memories of being forced to watch it while I was younger with my sister who was a big fan of it, along with the My Little Pony series and movies. The only cartoon like this that I liked to watch with her were the Care Bears. Altough if I get kids I wouldn't mind them watching this, then again most of my family are grade school teachers and are extremely tolerant on these types of shows. (My mom likes Winnie the Pooh for gods sake) myself included, at least I'd be able to spend quality time with the kids and know what they are talking about.

Did you notice that two of those sprites were wearing scuba masks?

This movie... I can't hate this movie, it's so cute an innocent... even though it can kill grown men :P

Quite a bang-up movie. No, I'm serious. I honestly like this movie and would watch it  anytime. A movie with all of those colours and fluffy characters is always bound to amuse me. And the rainbows...oh! They should make more movies featuring rainbows the way this one did.

I watched this movie all the time when I was a kid and I turned out okay.

In fact, it still has a special place in my heart.  I wish someone in Japan would remake Rainbow Brite as an anime.  I don't trust American animators anymore...
