Term-time ends at Acme Looniversity and the Tiny Toon characters look forward to a summer filled with fun. Buster and Babs Bunny turn a water fight into a white-water rafting trip through the dangerous Deep South; Plucky Duck and Hamton Pig share the most impossibly awful car journey imaginable on the way to HappyWorldLand; Fifi's blind date becomes a "skunknophobic" nightmare; and a safari park is turned upside-down by Elmyra's search for "cute little kitties to hug and squeeze".

YouHeart I gave it a 7.5 out of 10
Fairaher The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
Catangro After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.
TheOneManBoxOffice As a guy who grew up in the 1990s, I can say that this was the time when cartoons had a lot of freedom behind them. Tiny Toon Adventures, an animated TV series produced by filmmaker Steven Spielberg, was one of those shows. It's basically a modern day take on the Looney Tunes featuring characters that are supposed to be their successors. It was quite the success, running for three seasons within a time span of five years, and its spiritual follow-up Animaniacs, also produced by Spielberg, would follow in its footsteps. So in 1992, a direct-to-video feature film was made, and it's just as funny as the show is.The movie is a series of side-stories mixed into one feature film starring the main cast of the television show. In one story, Buster and Babs Bunny (no relation) get into a water gun fight that turns into a white water rafting trip. Then there's the story of Plucky Duck and Hampton Pig traveling to an amusement park on the road trip from Hell (in the spirit of National Lampoon's Vacation, the original, not the terrible remake they made last year). There's also Fifi Le Fume's quest to get an autograph from a skunk movie star, why you should never go see a movie with Fowlmouth...ever, and finally, Elmyra finding another pet to hug and squeeze to the point where it would be considered torture. Oh, and did I mention that some of our main characters come across a murdering psychopath with a chainsaw?Originally, the film was going to be released in movie theatres, but in a last minute decision, Warner Brothers decided to make it a home video release, which is a shame, really. The show was at its peak when it was released, because it appealed to both kids and especially adults who get the more mature references and crude humor riddled within. Plus, having the label "direct-to-video" usually has a bad connotation attached to it, because most movies that were released directly to home media usually suck. Thankfully, this is one of those that doesn't suck. In fact, this is probably one of the best DTV films ever put out, period. The entire film is hilarious from beginning to end, with great, fast- paced animation and great writing. Perhaps the most memorable moments, for me, included the entire story arc of the aforementioned Hellish road trip with Plucky and Hampton, and Buster and Babs encountering a family of back-country possums who want them for dinner, a la John Boorman's 1972 thriller Deliverance.For a while, the film did not see a re-release on DVD when VHS bit the dust, but as of 2012, Warner Brothers did re-release the film on DVD, and though the picture quality is nowhere near up to HD standards, you can still watch it just fine. If you can deal with that, I highly recommend giving this movie a watch, and if you can manage to get every single pop culture reference this thing throws at you, then either you'll fit right at home or someone should be concerned.
spam_crusader I love this movie... it can make me laugh! =^_^= Which is kinda hard to do. This movie is one of the best cartoon adaptations ever. It doesn't warp the characters like other movies out there. Everyone is in character and has a role to play!The movie focuses around Buster and Babs going down river after a flood (courtesy of Buster), to Plucky going on a trip with Hamton (hilarious stuff), Elmyra running around torturing animals (as usual), Fifi following her crush around for an autograph, and Shirley and Fowlmouth going to the movies.In my own personal opinion, I didn't like the Buster and Babs segments that much, although they had some notable dialogue and jokes. I have got to say the Plucky and Hampton 'Vacation' parts were the best! Hamton's family is HILARIOUS! I especially like Uncle Stinky. Fifi in the hotel was also hilarious. I love the actor cameos during this scene. :DProbably the most famous part in this movie, again IMHO, is when Fowlmouth and Shirley are in the movie theater... LOL! You've got to see it to appreciate it! And when Hamton and Plucky go through the tunnel to make a wish... :)Although this movie moved slowly during the Buster/Babs parts, the rest is pure gold! I rate this movie 8/10. Show this to your kids one day... or even adults yourselves - WATCH THIS MOVIE! You won't regret it.
revival05 This movie is HILARIOUS!!!I never stopped laughing to that TV-show, and with this Tiny Toons-movie I just had it! This is the best family entertainment from Warner since FREE WILLY (and that movie wasn't that good).Now all I have to do is to see ''Scooby Doo on Zombie Island''.
Lampbane I watch this movie at the start of every summer, and it never ceases to amuse me. Here the jokes are packed in near every line of dialogue, giving you more bang than the average Simpsons episode. Some of the jokes fall flat or will only elicit a slight chuckle, but others will leave you rolling and then there are those that stick in your brain... "The audience is now deaf."The video knows it's a video, and makes no pretensions about being anything else. It's easy to sit back and let the bombardment of humor begin. A good mix of slapstick, pop culture, and tongue-in-cheek comedy ensures there's something for everybody. I was in sixth grade when I first saw this video, and I have to admit I still find it as hilarious now that I've started college.This is a good movie to watch over the summer, much in the way you might watch "It's a Wonderful Life" at Christmas or "Ten Commandments" at Easter/Passover. More than that, it's just funny as hell.
