Animaniacs: Wakko's Wish Trailers

The Warner Brothers (and the Warner Sister) go on a quest to find a fallen wishing star to help Dot with her illness. Unfortunately the rest of the town, including an evil king, also hear about the star and want to get to it first to have their own wishes come true. It's a race against time and it's up to the three zany siblings to get there first.

First, I saw some Animaniacs shorts. They were smart, witty, and funny. Then I saw THIS. I was bloody outraged.Where's the water tower? Where's the Warner lot? What happened here?!?! Instead, we get sucked into "Acme Falls" (???) and a childish plot where Yakko, Wakko, and Dot search for the "wishing star" to bring hope to a desperate village. If I wanted to see a childish plot like this, I would've turned on Teletubbies!YES, I ACTUALLY LIKENED AN ANIMANIACS MOVIE TO TELETUBBIES!!!But the worst part was near the end, where Dot gets mortally wounded by a cannonball and dies, then when Wakko goes into the wishing star and makes his wish, GUESS WHAT?!?! SHE LIVES!!!!! OMFG! Ever since I was introduced to Animaniacs, I wanted to see that bitch die. She's like a washed up celebrity, like Hannah Montana, she thinks she's cute, but she's NOT. And she just HAS to rub it off on the other characters! F&#% her to HELL!You understand why this piece of sh%# wasn't released in theaters? Because it SUCKED SO BAD! Do not buy this. EVER. In fact, do not mention a word of this garbage to ANYONE, unless they're an Animaniacs fan. If you're gonna rush a movie out to DVD about an awesome TV show, make sure it bears a resemblance to the show! They did it with Tiny Toons: How I Spent My Summer Vacation.

Just saw this on HBO, did anyone catch the not-so-hidden reference to the Time-Warner merger of 1996? In the opening sequence, the town of "Warnerstock" (not-so-subtle) was all happy and prosperous until the king passed away and the evil king of "Ticktocia" (tic-toc...Time maybe?) took control through a hostile takeover. the people of Warnerstock were forced to turn a profit...and so-on and so-on. The show was always full of obscure and adult references cleverly and tastefully hidden and mixed with the kiddie humor. Maybe an expression of some internal riff with the whole merger, 'cleverly' displayed in Animaniac fashion.

I happened to find Wakko's Wish at Sam's Club and I picked it up sight unseen because I enjoyed the "Animaniacs" series when it was on. I watched it and was a tad disappointed. The story was cute and all, but the songs? Ouch. The songs really were pointless and seemed on par with any direct to video animated movie That's a shame because "Animaniacs" had some catchy tunes like 'Yakko's World' and 'I'm Cute' and such. The song writing here was flat and none of the 10 songs were memorable. Some in fact were painful.There are some fun moments in this- the cave I found funny- and Pinky and the horse, for example. Is it worth a look? As long as your hopes aren't too high, sure. Sadly, it's not as good as I hoped.

This is the best movie I have ever seen in a long time! I myself wondered if the Animaniacs could occupy a 90 minute movie, well the answer is, absolutely! Their antics are fresh and new, not simply a long and drawn out episode. The lyrics are original and creative, and add an exciting touch to these lovable characters! This is a must see for anyone! A+++++!!!!
