Best movie of this year hands down!

Don't Believe the Hype

The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

I remember seeing an early episode of "Ed, Edd 'N Eddy" and thinking it was just dumb. I saw about two or three later episodes and admitted that it wasn't bad for me. It just wasn't my thing. I kept hearing about this movie on TVTropes. They even included it in their drinking game where someone mentioned we should take a sip every time we see it mentioned. I did see it and it was about as wonderful as I thought it was. This movie was so good I would recommend it to people who aren't fans of the show. In fact, from what I heard this movie was actually BETTER than the show. I mean, it was certainly better than the couple of episodes I did see.I thought maybe it would be boring until the finale everyone talks about, but it certainly wasn't. I thought maybe the whole thing would be told in a flashback, but we never do find out the implications of the scheme that made everybody angrier than they already have been. Maybe it's just as well. I know enough about the show to understand the basic concept and I know most of the characters' names and everything. I mean, it was advertised on Cartoon Network all the time which I always watched. Does this mean I'm going to go back and watch the show? Hmmm, maybe. I'm just as satisfied telling people about this great movie.What's so wonderful is that we get to see a lot of time devoted to each of the individual characters. It's great to just see how they exist in their own world and of course how they affect all each other in the end. This movie had tons of great slapstick. There were so many great gags going on all the time. Well, they actually make fun of the actual use of slapstick. Eddy explicitly mentions it by name. I admit some of the animation could be better and the close ups can be annoying. It's still great all the way through chock full of adventure that the show never had.There's even a setup for a sequel at the very end! It features Jonny possibly becoming a new villain in the series, but then he's told the movie's over. That was a fantastic way to end the series and I couldn't have thought of a better one. I really do think this did a better job than "Gravity Falls". It resolved more story and hey, Eddy even got a kiss from Nazz! If only Dipper had a better love life. Yep, that's my avatar! I recognized the voice of one of the Kanker sisters. Having not watched most of the show, I knew it sounded familiar. I then realized it was someone from "My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic". Then I finally realized it was Trixie's voice! Great to see how this voice actress started out.There's a really popular theory going around that Ed, Edd 'N Eddy takes place in Purgatory. That's why adults never appeared or something. Well, this movie actually does feature adults for the first (and only) time in the whole series. We see the lower parts of their bodies when Johnny is on the bus. So has this theory been disproven? If not, then I love the idea that the Edds and the other kids at the Cul-De-Sac have finally ascended to Heaven, having learned their lesson of unity after all this time.I just wish I could have seen them with the actual Jawbreakers in their mouths! Well, it's said they do get them at least. It wasn't a distant finale, but it still answered every question we wanted answered. Maybe it's just because Donald Trump became President that I feel like we're in a new age. At least we have something as good as this to look back on. A pity nearly all animated movies are CGI as I really do suspect this would do well in theaters. I especially love the first two minutes, where it's nothing but silence and no music while the sign is brought up. It perfectly sets up the movie. So as Edd himself says, it took them 130 episodes to finally get what they wanted.It was worth it. ****

What makes this show so popular? Energetic animation, colourful characters, slapstick. Is all that in the finale movie? Well, yes, but there is more to it than that. Apparently, a disastrous scam has wrecked the neighborhood, and the kids are trying to kill them. And I swear, that's how it begins. They decide now is the time to go visit Eddy's brother, whom Eddy mentioned several times throughout the series, in hope for protection. The subplots revolve around each of the Cul-De-Sac kids hunting down Ed, Edd n Eddy with the Kanker sisters protecting the latter. Like I said, the slapstick comedy, great animation and diverse characters are all present. What makes this movie really stand out is that they do something different with the characters. I'm not going to go through all the subplots, because it would take too long. I will say they take it to the next level. Rolf, my second-favorite character (Ed being my favorite) is plotting to "spit the Eds on his pitchfork." Yikes! Humorously enough, Kevin's bike is getting in the way of his relationship with Nazz. What I really like about this is that we learn a lot more about Eddy, the show's anti-hero, when Edd confronts him on his failed schemes. After... a "quicksand" prank, Edd yells at Eddy for his schemes that get him into trouble, resulting in an argument between them where Edd actually kicks Eddy onto his back, even deciding that he'd rather face the consequences for his involvement in Eddy's schemes than travel with him. The best part is where Eddy takes the blame for the disasters, and deep down, he thought he was a loser this whole time. Edd forgives him and the trio decide to continue looking after one another. The Kankers eventually capture the rest of the kids and all characters get to Eddy's brother's place. He seems cool at first, but we ultimately see him for what he is, a monstrosity of sadism. He tortures Eddy and everyone else, even the Cul-De-Sac kids stand up for him. Ed saves Eddy by making a door hit him. We finally see that Eddy was influenced by his brother, but just wanted to be liked by the other kids. Touched by this confession, the kids cheer for Eddy except Johnny, who attacks them, still thinking they're causing trouble. He's attacked by the rest of the kids. Finally making friends, the titular trio are even invited by Kevin to enjoy some jawbreakers. If Ed, Edd n Eddy is the perfect nostalgic modern show, then this movie is the perfect way to end it. I don't think there could have been a better note to end on. Oh, and Johnny becomes evil. So there's that. Perfect 10

This film is my favorite. Love the film. If this comes out on DVD and Blu-ray, the rating should be PG. I love the TV show too. Best film of all time. Danny Antonucci is the best TV show creator ever. Mr. Antonucci, if you are reading this, spin off alert. I have an idea of a spin off film for Captain Melonhead and Splinter the Wonderwood. The name would be "The Adventures of Captain Melonhead." Also "Ed Edd n Eddy's Big Picture Show 3-D." If you like my idea e-mail me at my e-mail address, [email protected]. Any other people besides him and IMDb, leave me alone. Also, IMDb, a film this superb should have a preview on this sight.-agenttortilla-

The trademark humor of the Ed Edd and Eddy series is their incredibly elastic body parts, over-portrayal over-exaggerated simple ideas, and the ability to turn the most innocuous objects into sophisticated machines, and this film continues off of it. Basically the story revolves around the Eds trying to escape the wrath of the cul de sac kids after their latest scam unintentionally goes awry, leaving Kevin, Nazz, Rolfe, Johnny horribly mutilated. During this whole pursuit, each of the cul de sac kids run into humorous situations similar to the TV series and through these situations they really get a chance to learn about each other and the strength of their friendship. The film was well made; each character had a decent amount of development, there are happy and sad times for the Eds and the end of the movie is unlike anything you have ever seen in the TV series. This is highly recommended for all fans of Ed Edd Eddy.
