okay now, can we not do this? people work hard on these writeups and while of course you are free to read them or not as you see fit, to constantly badmouth them and say things like 'they suck so much that i'm not reading them anymore' is needlessly inflammatory and gives a bad vibe to the topic.

tbh I'm surprised Beavis and Butthead would've dropped by now.

I assumed there's some Gauntlet people that would've hated it.

Had Ermine participated I almost guarantee it would be out already

13. The Wild Thornberrys Movie

Inviso: 3
Charon: 7
Snake: 9
Johnbobb: 9
Genny: 9
Red: 13
Scarlet: 18
JONA: 23
Stifled: 25
Karo: 29

Total Score: 145

Inviso: Despite the blatantly obvious twist that only takes about fifteen minutes from set-up to reveal, I enjoyed this movie. I was a big fan of the Wild Thornberries as a kid (mainly because Eliza was voiced by Lacey Chabert, who was Penny in Lost in Space and I LOOOOOOOVED her, fight me Poke), so this felt right in tune with the series. You have a lot of stake-raising in this film, from Eliza starting out the movie by getting a cheetah cub poached, to Eliza getting sent back to England for boarding school, to Eliza having to reveal her powers, thus losing them in the process. I just enjoyed the fact that Elizas character felt like she was struggling with real conflict throughout the film. Something bad happens that shed promised not to let happen, so she has to set out and make things right, and she ultimately does so without even needing her powers. Its a solid plot and I liked it. Rare for me to not pause a movie once Ive started it.

Charon: Quite enjoyable, even if a little predictable at times. I feel like the diversion to England was unnecessary at best and sort of takes you out of what this shown is most known for, but it was nice to see Eliza get a chance to make some actual human friends too. The best part of a film like this one is how it adds to the mythos of the show a lot by breaking one of the cardinal rules of Eliza's powers, and revealing them to others. The fact that now her sister knows what she can do changes the show greatly moving forward, and a great TV series based film will do this sort of thing. It removes the formulaic nature that can plague this type of film. All in all, it's just a well done movie based on a well done show. It was hard to go wrong.

Snake: Surprisingly decent, Tim Currys Nigel is great and I though the set-up was fairly interesting. Its animated well and kept my interest throughout, cant ask for much more, especially on this list.

Johnbobb: Im surprised how much I ended up liking this. In another movie I mightve hated the early couple minutes of exposition dump, but in a movie based on a TV show from the 90s I barely remember, it was actually super helpful, and filled me in enough on what was happening that I didnt feel like I needed to be a diehard fan of the show to keep up. Eliza is a honestly a compelling protagonist; her motivations never feel shallow or underdeveloped (which is a common problem among cartoon child protagonists). The supporting cast (except maybe Darwin) are likeable, fun and well-acted. The visuals are bright and pretty, the music is pleasant, and the jokes are legitimately funny.

Genny: I absolutely loved The Wild Thornberries growing up. As a kid, it was my favorite show on Nickelodeon (but then everything changed when the Fire Nation attacked), but as an adult maybe this kid who's only real power is the ability to talk to animals wasn't the coolest thing in the universe...
...
NAH! It's still pretty rad. Eliza's more than just her gift. She's clever, brave, selfless, and resourceful. She's also rather ugly. In fact it never really struck me as a kid that the animation style of the show is kind of off-putting. And why does Darwin the chimp, who admits that he shares 98% of human DNA in the movie have long doggy ears instead of big human-like ears? Lots of weird aesthetic choices were made here, but enough about the animation and more on the movie. So the reveal of the villain(s) was so obvious that it was laughable that the movie would even bother trying to play it off for drama. Hey I said Eliza was clever, not intelligent; there is a difference between the two. If anything Darwin's the intelligent one, and I really liked their relationship throughout the movie, and the fact that it was tested by the inability to communicate at one point. If there's one thing the movie didn't pull off well other than obvious baddie is obvious, it was the increased focus on Eliza's adventures in boarding school and Debbie's adventures in the wilds of Africa. As a show about a tomboy who loves nature, that is not the kind of content anyone would pay to see. I get it, those two are completely out of their element and hilarity ensues, but the movie spends way too long focusing on that instead of on Nigel or something that might have been more interesting.

Red: Bad parenting is kind of a nickelodeon staple I guess. Hell even the animal parents that let their kids run off with a human child are bad parents in this one. This is one of the movies on the list most hurt by not having a background of knowledge on the series. I mean, I'm pretty sure Eliza has a brother that shows up a couple of times and for some reason hes full savage or something. On top of the fact her animal talking powers have stipulations and other things like that. This is also clearly from an age where all characters had to be ugly, because that was a thing I guess.

Scarlet: You have to wonder why Karo thought a list that featured virtually every single Nickelodeon cartoon ever made would be worthy of the time of Gauntlet Crew. Especially when you find yourself remembering that, by and large, Nickelodeon was the dimestore Cartoon Network, which was an animated company that desperately wanted to be a competitor with the standard Saturday morning cartoon manufacturing company, which in turn just wanted to recreate the success of Mel Blanc, who never truly found the success of Disney. Anyways, this was a movie that felt like I was watching Tarzan Jr., and at least the discovery of Flea in the voice cast tickled me during the credits.
Rating: 18/100

JONA: I always thought the show was boring and this was just like the show. Nothing outright bad, just boring.

Stifled: This is a strange concept. On one hand, the jungle is the ideal setting for the show, but staying there doesnt differentiate it enough to justify a movie. On the other hand, a boarding school, while different, is a stupid setting for a show about animals. And after they go to the trouble to change scenery, they go back to the jungle within 20 minutes. Its such a waste of time that could have been spent fleshing out and building up the poachers more. As it is, I find myself questioning the existence of this movie. It could have easily been a TV special instead. And while the content of the movie isnt exactly terrible, its just a bunch of ideas that clash and make it seem pointless. I have to fault a movie for failing as a concept, even if its technically better than a few things I ranked above it.

Traviss Opinion: I thought for sure a movie with a ton of animals would amuse Travis, but it did not. I prompted him to look a few times and he told me the animals on the screen when I did. But he was just not having it.

Karo: The Wild Thornberrys is a nickelodeon series about a family who lives in the untamed wilderness, and judging from the both the daughter's ability to speak the language of beasts and the family's appearance, it is clear that their ancestors mated passionately with animals on multiple occasions (or at the very least with their own siblings).
So anyway, Eliza Thornberry tangles with some poachers, and because of this her parents just now realize that the jungle is actually an unsafe place to raise children and ship her off to school in england. Their other two kids they apparently dont give a damn about and they are fine with them being eaten by a boa constrictor or whatever. The whole school trip has absolutely nothing to do with the plot of the movie, no sooner is Eliza settled in than she has a vision and sneaks back to africa to protect the environment. Why even have her go there in the first place? Not only is it irrelevant, it is completely out of place with the series as a whole. It honestly feels like they just took a script from an episode of the TV series and just stretched it out until you can hear the bones and ligaments snapping.
Much like the TV show the characters, particularly Eliza, are designed in such a grotesque manner as to cause real physical illness. There seriously needs to be a restraining order put on Gabor Csupo to keep him from drawing any more bug-eyed, big-lipped mounds of human flesh with a ballpoint pen while drunk and calling it 'art'.
Nickelodeons tiresome brand of humor involving flatulence, wedgies and such is of course present in full force, and makes what little gravitas the story has impossible to take seriously.
It is just a thoroughly unpleasant viewing experience that should be thrown into the darkest depths of cartoon hell to be flayed alive for all eternity.

Think Goofy Movie is the only movie left I actively dislike so I'm rooting for that one next as an outside observer. Beavis and Butthead does seem like the right pick though.

(Though I didn't watch Recess or Rugrats due to hating their source material and would probably dislike those more)

12. Rugrats in Paris: The Movie

Johnbobb: 6
JONA: 6
Genny: 6
Inviso: 8
Stifled: 10
Charon: 11
Scarlet: 22
Snake: 24
Red: 25
Karo: 27

Total Score: 145

Johnbobb: This falls into some of the same issues as the first movie. Things like recurring toilet humor and outdated licensed music stops it from holding up as well as it could've over time. Still, it's a huge step up from the previous film, as it all takes place in a more interesting environment, and focuses primarily on Chuckie (who's always been the best character, let's be honest). Most importantly, there's actually a powerful and surprisingly moving story at its core, delicately dealing with the rather heavy subject of a young child with a dead mother and his single father trying to move on.

JONA: I really liked the focus on Chuckie here, since he was my favorite as a kid. I also liked the Paris and park setting. Man, I wish Godzilla was as popular as Reptar is in the Rugrats world. Fun movie.

Genny: Rugrats in Paris: The Movie is in my opinion, an example of a sequel that actually improves on the previous installment (take notes, A New Generation!) For one, it actually has an antagonist, and Coco's pretty entertaining to boot, and it has a theme anyone could connect with. Most everyone has experienced a loss of some sort at some point. It might not be someone as important as a wife or a mother, but anyone who couldn't sympathize with Chuckie at the mother-child dance (is that even a real thing) is a heartless monster. I feel like the addition of Kimi wasn't fully realized as they didn't do enough with her character to distinguish her other than "I know this place", "I live here", or "Here's a shortcut". She ended up being more a tour guide than an actual character, and her personality is kind of a blend of Phil and Tommy. If anything Kimi's used more as a proxy to further connect Kira and Chas Finster.
That gripe aside, it was a cute movie. I'm glad Spike's sidequest to get a girlfriend wasn't a complete waste of time, and I enjoyed the shameless Disney references sprinkled throughout their date. I also immensely enjoyed the parody scenes of The Godfather, though it did kind of end up making me want to watch one of those films instead.

Inviso: EVERYTHING the first Rugrats movie did wrong, this one does its best to correct. It still has a lot of the same trappings (there is an overemphasis on bodily functions from Phil & Lil, but nowhere NEAR as much as in the first movie, and the plot becomes extremely outlandish towards the end of the movie), but its easier to overlook because it feels like theres a lot more HEART in this movie. I guess it comes down to the fact that I find Chuckie a lot more compelling that Tommy, and I find Chuckies role as the only child of a single-parent household a lot more interesting than giving baby Tommy a baby brother. The Mothers Day episode is right up there with Hey Arnolds Christmas episode as one of my favorite Nickelodeon memories, so having a whole movie dedicated to Chuckies search for a mom was actually really nice. The new characters work well, and its a pretty solid movie, for a kids film. It certainly stands out as having quality compared to most of the films on this list so far.

Stifled: The Godfather parody? Singing sumo wrestler waiters? People not allowed in the state of Kentucky? Haha oh wow, Rugrats, you cheeky kids you! I was a bit skeptical of this movie since this was when I checked out of the show as a kid. But let me tell you, its a quality film. Child neglect on a global level? Check. An invention even larger in scale than the Reptar Wagon? Check. Finally addressing Chuckies deepest desire in the most heartwarming and satisfying way possible? Check and check. The show may have suffered from too many character syndrome at this point, but this movie could have easily been a beautiful ending if they were looking for one. I submit for your headcanon approval: Rugrats in Paris: The Series Finale.
By the way, they totally jipped Suzy and her family out of a trip to Paris. Bad.

Traviss Opinion: The multiple times Who Let the Dogs Out played got Travis dancing and smiling. He didnt actually care about the movie beyond that and just played with his cars.

Charon: Another well made and fun adventure for these tykes. I really enjoyed the battle between Reptar and Robosnail; what a great throwback to old monster movies. Chuckie's quest to find a mother is endearing and it's interesting to see him at the helm as main character for once. Even though it flowed in quite a predictable manner, it did flow correctly at least. I don't think it had quite the touch the first one did, but there's still some magic there as well.

Scarlet: You have to wonder why Karo thought a list of veiled references designed for adults that are force fed into the scripts of childrens shows despite the target audience for said references walking away from the television while their child stares idiotically at the flashing images on screen, tongue lolling out of their mouth vacuously, was worthy of the time of Gauntlet Crew. Especially when you find yourself pondering this specifically during a scene near the end that featured a Godfather gag sequence. The Godfather. What child has watched the Godfather? Is there a large bleedover of Godfather viewers and Rugrats aficionados? Is there a secret link between the demographics of both franchises? Do you all see what Im talking about here? This is Dreamworks syndrome but taken to a further, more head-scratching extreme. It shows that the so-called writers of these films just dont have their finger on the pulse of what makes a family film work and find themselves wandering lost in a script that is screaming out in agony, searching for plot.
Rating: 14/100

Snake: The Movie? Is there a normal Rugrats in Paris? If so, why didnt they just leave it at that. Why did it need to be a movie? Its even worse than the first film, and just as headache inducing. Theres a really weird Godfather parody at the beginning that feels really out of place and painfully unfunny. The animation is crap, and as you can expect, so is everything else.

Red: No one is allowed to have single parents ever, so now we get a movie with the dumbest most obvious relationship setup ever. Meanwhile there is a fake wedding plot and for some reason the children have to be kidnapped because a bunch of babies that no one can understand are going to endanger a wedding? I'm not sure, it never makes a lick of sense and gets worse the more you try to think about it. Dumb setup movie to intrudoce a new character to a show that by this time had probably long overstayed its welcome.

Karo: So Stu has to go to a theme park to fix one of his malfunctioning inventions, and for some reason all the babies come along. The park in question is themed after a godzilla-like Japanese TV show, which logically means the park celebrating it would be in France. Despite the film's title, the fact that everyone is in Paris is completely inconsequential and irrelevant to the plot or anything else going on.
The inbred little cretins cause all sorts of trouble at Stupid Dinosaur Land while a child-hating corporate executive in charge of the theme park tries to seduce Chuckie's dad so she can get a promotion. It's honestly just Bebe's Kids with white people and even uglier children.
Anyway, many gross out scenes and godfather parodies later, the kids commandeer an animatronic dinosaur and destroy half of the city in an attempt to stop Papa Chuckie from marrying this bitch. After they succeed, they go home and he instead hooks up with this random japanese chick he just met in order to help the show meet it's ethnic diversity quota. The babies destroy that wedding too with a cake fight, making it the third wedding these brats have ruined in one movie.
I don't think I've seen a movie that makes a stronger case for birth control than this one.

11. Beavis and Butt-head Do America

Charon: 6
Stifled: 7
Inviso: 9
Karo: 11
Snake: 12
Scarlet: 12
JONA: 16
Genny: 19
Johnbobb: 21
Red: 27

Total Score: 140

Charon: Probably a divisive movie, but a quality road adventure and pretty funny if you like this style of humor already. Beavis and Butt-head can be hard to enjoy if you're inclined to do so, but I have always enjoyed them so I enjoyed this as well. It contains all their best bits here, like Cornholio, and it's funny seeing their antics across the country. Not to mention it's fun to hear Robert Stack constantly talking about cavity searches. This is childish humor, but it's childish humor done as only these two can.

Stifled: I hated the show. Hated it. It was so stupid. But strangely the movie really hooked me. It improved the animation and voice quality tenfold. It added new and interesting villains into the mix. I mean come on, Bruce and Demi WHILE MARRIED?! Thats good shit right there. The soundtrack ruled. I cant put it above movies that had fully original soundtracks or anything, but I enjoyed it a lot. It even had a classic Disney acid trip style sequence tossed in for good measure! Beavis and Butthead both causing all the problems and being hailed as heroes for solving them by imitation Bill Clinton is perfect. The entire movie is just two boneheads accidentally participating in a terrorist plot all for the purpose of getting laid. They had no clue what was actually going on and it made me actually enjoy their stupidity. Congrats, movie! You worked your magic on me.

Traviss Opinion: I probably could have gotten away with showing him this, but I decided to err on the side of caution. I know for a fact he would get a kick out of the poop is coming out of the assof the ass! Ill show this to him when hes a little older and I train him to not repeat shit.

Inviso: I feel like this is gonna rank at the bottom of the overall list, and it probably deserves it. Its a mindless slacker comedy, and I fully admit that the main characters shtick grew tired within MINUTES of their first appearance on-screen. But still, I found myself laughing at the sheer stupidity of this film. The fact that these two braindead morons could pass themselves off as international terrorists is amazing in and of itself, but the fact that the slapdick idiots of the ATF couldnt fucking catch them? At a certain point, it becomes so over-the-top that you just have to laugh. It also helps that such a serious subject matter (biological terrorism) was shone through the lens of two mentally deficient, self-centered teenagers. Also, watching proto-Hank Hill get his ass kicked over and over again. Its just FUNNY to watch. I know its dumb, but I still enjoyed it.

Karo: In a quest to find a replacement for their stolen TV, two dumbasses travel across the country randomly while muttering things in an incoherent manner. If you say that sounds like an adventure of the 'Minions' you're not too far off, though to this film's credit the main characters' mental disabilities are never portrayed as cute or admirable in any way.
The pair of them end up in a series of bizarre circumstances such as accidentally getting hired as hitmen and coming into the possession of a biological weapon as federal agents chase them across the country.
Though their assorted antics start out somewhat amusing, watching over an hour of their stupidity is just too much, and everything begins wear on the senses in an ever increasing fashion the further we get into the story. By the time the movie is over you will never want anything to do with these imbeciles ever again, unless it is to hold their heads underwater long enough until the chuckling finally stops.

Snake: Somehow there are two road movies on this list, but I enjoyed this slightly less than A Goofy Movie. These two characters really never took off for me, but I at least enjoy their love for heavy metal. The satire is incredible obnoxious and in your face, which is a style that never really works for me. Id still rather watch this than anything below it ever, but I did not like this incredibly much.

Scarlet: You have to wonder why Karo thought a list of films featuring characters designed in the mold of Brohan would be worthy of the time of Gauntlet Crew. Especially when you find yourself painfully aware of a duo of hyucking yokels meander through life receiving virtually no external input whatsoever. But it did have a Red Hot Chili Peppers track, so that puts its musical quotient far and away higher than every other film on this list.
Rating: 26/100

JONA: If you like Beavis and Butthead antics, then this movie is for you. I do enjoy some Beavis and Butthead antics but I kinda got tired of it in the movie at a certain point.

Genny: Predicting this will be my most outlying film on this list and I don't care. I hate Beavis and Butt-head, both the show and the characters themselves. I actually enjoyed Daria and King of the Hill is a classic, but ever since I was a kid I couldn't stand these two. That said this movie did make me come around a little on the idea of the show as it was actually somewhat enjoyable. The titular characters still ate sweaty ass, but the situations they would get themselves into were often kind of hilarious. This one was good for a few cheap laughs if nothing else.

Johnbobb: Really never been a fan of Beavis and Butthead, which is odd considering how much I like King of the Hill (and Mike Judges work in general). Theres just nothing really compelling or likeable about Beavis or Butthead, and their antics tend to be more groan-worthy than they are funny. Every once in a while, the classic Mike Judge humor shines through, but its not nearly often enough. I mean, its not terrible, but two teenagers chuckling at innuendos for 80 minutes gets old.

Red: We had a lot of movies that are a pair of idiots. I hate idiots and these two are the biggest, dumbest idiots around. At least some of the jokes around them being idiots are kind of well thought out, but beyond that, I just cant enjoy myself with a movie where the main characters are more than a little mentally deficient. There isnt anything to hope for in this movie except that maybe the main characters will die a horrible death but because it is there movie there is no hope. All for a dumb TV.

Two of these movies just don't belong in the top 10 imo.

Guess for #10: Recess: School's Out

Definitely expected to see Goofy, South Park, and Simpsons in the top 10.

In fact I would be genuinely surprised to see South Park as not 1.

Yeah I tend to agree with the overall reception of Beavis and Butthead and I like their schtick but the movie went on too long to support it. That being said on this list I'd probably call 11th an underrate mostly because that problem plagues a lot of these films and at least it has an above average plot (among this set) to try and carry the schtick getting old.

That being said I think I'd prefer most sets of like 10 episodes over it. Again, true of a lot of movies on the list, though.

Aww. I thought Beav and Butt were gonna make it. Not a bad top ten though, all things considered (including this group being a bunch of filthy Hanna Barbara haters).

Gonna guess the Transformers go out next.
