Luke, Resus & Cleo Review Double Feature

 



LUKE: Would you 'Luke' at that! There's two surprises in store! Me, You, And Transformers Armada: Love Stronger Than Muscle, and an episode of The 'Hood! Let's review the first one.
CLEO: Picking up from where we last left off, Furaha accompanies the Autobots on a mission to rescue a Mini-Con from Antarctica, and she finds an Arctic fox hiding amongst the snow.
RESUS: I've never seen an Arctic fox before.
CLEO: You've seen one now.
LUKE: Looks like the two are enjoying themselves as they are looking for the Arctic fox's mum and dad.
RESUS: Oh no! They've encountered Cyclonus! *gasps* And he's thrown Furaha into an ice cave! Animal cruelty alert!
LUKE: Eh but look at this: Cyclonus realizes his mistake, and continues Furaha's task of bringing the Arctic fox back to her parents. Are you ready, 'cause this is the sad part.
RESUS: Yeah, go ahead.
LUKE: Although Furaha is on the verge of freezing to death, Optimus comes to rescue her and brings her back overnight. Following that, she has a dream similar to that of Shel Silverstein's The Giving Tree - except it's not a boy and a tree, it's a cub and an Autobot.
RESUS: *sniffs* Beautiful.
CLEO: Now, it ends when Furaha and her two Mini-Con friends, Jolt and Sparkplug, pounce onto Hot Shot to wake him up. It almost reminds me of Bluey, and you know what that means?
ALL THREE: Onto The 'Hood!
*
LUKE: A beach vacation fantasy? Sweet.
RESUS: Just what we need for escaping Dr. Skulley and his boring lessons.
CLEO: The Clangers have a musical fantasy similar to that of Mickey Mouse's dream in The Sorcerer's Apprentice.
LUKE: I always knew they were into music, those Clangers.
CLEO: Would you look at this? Bluey and Bingo have a fantasy they share with all their friends: all of them playing together near a giant tree with a slide near a ball pit near a huge playground.
LUKE: Do Bandit and Chilli have a fantasy?
RESUS: Yes, and it's a spacey jungle beach type world. I hope my mum indulges in this fantasy, I hate to see her in a bikini - it embarrasses me!
CLEO: Shut up, Resus!
LUKE: It's based on the Bluey episode 'Escape''s alternate name, 'Stick With Imagination', you know, because Bluey, Bingo, Mum and Dad use their imaginations to create a story where Mum and Dad try to escape from their daughters.
RESUS: You're going back to calling them Mum and Dad? Fine.
CLEO: And using our imaginations, our world and the Clangers' world combine to create a soft and peaceful world made entirely of duvets.
RESUS: Sounds soft - I'd love to visit.
LUKE: And have a pillow fight!
[Luke bashes Resus with a cushion. Resus does the same back, until all three are having a pillow fight.]

Look out for more MYATA: Love Stronger Than Muscle and more episodes of The 'Hood coming soon!
-Yours sincerely,
Sybil, Luke, Resus & Cleo
