The Brave Little Toaster to the Rescue (1997)
An Awkward Trip Down Memory Lane
Growing up, the Brave Little Toaster was one of my favorite animated films of all time, and it still holds up to me this very day. So naturally, I was a sucker for the sequels when they came out.
A lot of people seem to give the Brave Little Toaster Goes to Mars a bad rap just for the ridiculous premise and pointless celebrity cameos, and while it does seem rather silly in context, it's actually still a little better and more memorable than this one. Just because it wasn't as dark as the first one doesn't make it necessarily bad, and just because something is dark doesn't always make it necessarily good, either.
Recently looking back and re-watching this film again, the dialog is written rather awkwardly and a lot of it just predictable. Most of the songs are awkwardly forgettable, except for Remember that Day, which explained the animals' back stories rather briefly. While it does try to keep the dark tone of the original, it didn't really do much for me here... But kudos to those with differing opinions from mine.
One of the things about this film that I still find laughably bad is the villain, who lacks any kind of basic character development and depth and is just so unsubtle that it isn't even funny... Seriously, Rob hired this guy? The way he acts and looks on screen just screams bad news, that it's practically impossible to not know he's the villain.
While it does still have its moments, watching this again was just an overall awkward experience.

The Bird Near The End Summed This Episode up
Easily the worst episode I've ever seen, and it makes me cringe every time I think about it.
Courtney's character development was completely thrown out the window... From the built up friendship between Gwen, (which was awkward at times, but still tolerable), and her new relationship/fling with Scott, (one of the few GOOD things about this season that kept me watching).
Zoey's still an idiot for not catching on to what's going on with Mike/Mal, Scott's still being written as a moron and not nearly as devious as his original character... Gwen, while tolerable, just isn't the same Gwen I grew to love growing up, and while Mal was interesting in the beginning of the season, he's starting to get a little tiresome here.
With dry and unfunny humor, this episode just comes off as mean spirited when watching it.
