217 - The Care Bears Movie

To complement Barbie's wild success at the box office, Your Stupid Minds reviews a different toy tin-in movie, but a bad one! It's 1985's The Care Bears Movie! A man who runs an orphanage, Mr. Cherrywood (Mickey Rooney), tells his orphans a story about two other orphans who learn the value of friendship or caring or not listening to an evil book, or something. Jason (Sunny Besen Thrasher) and Kim (Cree Summer) are befriended by the Care Bears, some cutesy little creatures who live in the sky city of Care-a-Lot. However, a neglected and bullied magician's assistant Nicholas (Hadley Kay) finds an evil book who convinces him to cast evil spells to get children to stop caring. Can the Care Bears save Nicholas? Will they befriend a new group of equally toyetic animals? Do the Care Bears have a boat? You'll have to listen to find out.
