Absolutely love it! I have this on VHS and I watched it all the time growing up. I don't know exactly why this movie is so great, it just is. I still make references to it sometimes and no one else knows what I'm talking about, but that is how influential it was on my childhood. I really wish they would put this on DVD since I don't use a VHS player anymore!
Favorite line: when Buster says he can't marry both of the gator's daughters because it's bigamy the alligator says, "No son, thats big o' me!"
best animated movie EVARRRRR! Steven Spielberg has worked on some great cartoons in the 90s. tiny toons, animanacs, and even freakazoid. but when he made how i spent my vacation, i got so excited and jumped out of my seat. you never see great masterpiece cartoon films on tv anymore, especially on cartoon network. If you own the vhs edition, or even the extremely rare laserdisc edition, show it to everyone you know. they'll LOVE it.
Brilliant. This has to be the best cartoon-turned-into-a-feature-length-film ever made. Unlike the others, which usually become rather awkward or fail in some way, "How I Spent my Summer Vacation" is a hilarious, creatively musical romp and a cherished, classic favorite. It's so expertly done that several storylines intertwine to create one satisfyingly long film that stands perfectly well on its own. Memorable quotes and moments abound. I highly recommend this excellent Tiny Toons movie.
One of the best EVER!!!!!!!!!!!! I have been a rabid Tiny Toons fan ever since it aired on TV in the early 90s, I was about 7. Me and my older brother would watch it everyday. Then came the How I spent my Vacation(I could have sworn it was called How I spent my SUMMER vacation, oh well), me and my brother were rolling on the floor dying of laughter! We loved the entire movie and I think we even recorded it or had our mom rent it from like Blockbuster everytime she went there, cause I remember watching it millions of times! I just recently bought it online(unfortunately a VHS copy cause for some reason I don't know why this isn't on DVD yet and it should have been on DVD years ago!) and can't wait for it to come in so I can show my younger sisters, who missed out on this classic jem! If you haven't seen Tiny Toons before or this movie I HIGHLY recommend it! Classic scenes are: the entire scene of Plucky with Hamtons family going on a trip to Happy world land with a psycho(some parents said he was too scary for kids, nonsense! Yeah the guy was rather freaky but the scenes with him were too funny to be too scary! I was never scared of him and I was a little kid!) who hitch-hiked with them, Buster and Babs water fight and trip down the river with possums trying to eat them, and the ending! Do yourself a favor and just buy a copy even if you haven't seen it. You won't be disappointed! Just check out the ending song:
Buster: "We're sad, we're confessing, that school is back in session. *takes out his water pistol* I sure learned my lesson." Babs shuts Buster in his locker. Babs: "I actually had fun." Plucky: "I'm filled with elation, I'm back from that vacation!" Shirley: "For my next incarnation...I'm coming as a nun!" Elmer Fudd: "Welcome back to Acme Woo for a new school year." Buster: "Yikes, a test." Babs: "I need rest." Plucky: "I'm living in fear." Fefe: "Johnny Pew is a pity." Elmira: "At least I got my kitty." Dizzy: "No more crate, I now look great." Kids: "We've been outdone." Hampton: "Tunnels, and car games." Plucky: "Boy that trip was sure lame." The psycho killer steps in the room. Hampton: "Here's our pal, what's his name?" Plucky: "Someone call the cops!" Kids: "You viewers are lucky." Killer: "Hey where the heck is Plucky?" Kids: "When weather gets mucky, you can take it from the top. When September rolls around, you hear that school bell sound, never mind, press rewind, it's summer time again. We're tiny, we're toony, we're all a little loony. It's Tiny Toon Adventures..." Buster: "And I am the champ." Babs: "And now you are just damp. Babs pulls a cord, soaking Buster. Babs: "I just can't help myself."
An all-time favorite When I was a kid, one thing I looked forward to in the summer was when Nickelodeon would play "How I spent my vacation". They would split the movie up into four episodes and play two each day. I loved this movie when I was a kid and I still love it now. It's absolutely hilarious-"There's a car! there's a car!" I think my favorite parts are Plucky going to Happy World Land with Hampton. This movie is just absolutely hilarious and will always remain on my list of favorite movies!
