School holiday is around the corner once again and the sad news is that as parents you do not get the holiday as well. So what can we you guys do as parents since it's almost impossible to bring them for a get away?
What about catching a meaningful animated show?
Planes: Fire & Rescue
For those who did not catch Planes part 1 fear not because there are little importance of part 1 besides a few recurring characters. You still have time to rent the DvD and catch up if you are planning to watch this on 4th September or next week during the school holidays. (Funny story, Part 1 was aired on 5th Sept 2013 and this year it is 4th Sept! 1 year!)
If you were to ask me which show is better I would say Part 2. Just a short summary of part 1 for comparison sake is that it's a typical underdog story where you can achieve anything as long as you believe in yourself and our hero will win. Tar Dar~
So here comes the question, what's going to happen next? Is he going to continue flying, reoccurring villain and he fly and fly and beat him again? No. To avoid spoiler I would say the story line is bigger than this and it is rather meaningful because it's a tribute to fire fighters and besides that it also includes a little of the classic injured-athlete story which is pretty interesting to someone like me who is into sports.
It has really witty lines besides the touching storyline. There's this line you have to watch out for when they were in a bar and this car use a very cheesy pick-up line on a female car and the female car went "Tsk, pick-up truck" HAHAHA, GEDDIT? But that's not my favourite line because my favourite has to be this,
To the family
I went for this show with my "kids" aka my 2 nieces and nephew. Of course there's no way I could handle all these 3 little ones myself, the gangster wife and their mum came along.
I would say this cartoon is more than just another cartoon for them because the main character is a plane. The kids relate planes to their late father, my brother because he was a pilot. Little Abby would look at the sky as well as planes and call shout out to papa from time to time.
Conclusion:
Before I digress on, this show is worth watching. It is worth paying even for weekends if you are bringing the kids. If you are going on a date it's actually not too bad for a laugh and light hearted evening but if you are two bros... According to the bro code page 84, section 7, paragraph 3, 2 bros shall never go and watch any cartoons alone... UNLESS you have plans to pick up some girls at the cinemas. ;)
And if you can't wait, here's the trailer. Also stay tuned to their Facebook Page for updates!
Mr.Smith, I heard there will be Planes 3! YAY!
