Babes in Toyland.
Babes in Toyland.
This is a story that goes back a really long time. There have been many
movies about the book but nothing like this one. This one is the best I
have ever seen, it is filled with action, love and suspense which fits the
entirety of the movie. Your going to love this one. So, lets get to the
story shall we:
It's three days before Christmas, as the conductor aboard the Toyland
Express, Humpty Dumpty , meets two children, Jack and Jill , who are on
their way to Toyland. After meeting Tom Piper and Mary , who runs her
late father's toy factory, they go to live with their uncle, the evil Barnaby
Crookedman , who despises toys and keeps Jack and Jill in the attic. He
has plans to shut down the toy factory, and earlier shot down Tom's hot
air balloon as he was flying over the Goblin Forest in an attempt to get
him eaten by goblins (and is quite shocked to see him alive).
Jack and Jill sneak out and go to the Toy Factory, which had received a
big order from Santa Claus requesting a thousand giant toy soldiers. Just
as Jack and Jill offer to help, Barnaby takes them back to the attic of his
house and threatens to send them to the Goblin Forest if they go near
the toy factory again. Shortly afterward, he hires two crooks named
Gonzargo and Rodrigo to sabotage the toy factory.
Jack and Jill sneak out and go to the toy factory again, where Gonzargo
and Rodrigo, disguised as sheep, drop a monkey wrench into one of the
machines, Jack manages to remove it before the machine can explode.
Jack and Jill immediately suspect Gonzargo and Rodrigo, though
believing them to be sheep, and chase after them, resulting in Rodrigo
and Gonzargo being knocked into a well by a ram and Jack and Jill,
respectively, get knocked down by an empty pail and fall down the
hill again.
Barnaby catches Jack and Jill and orders Gonzargo and Rodrigo, who
expose the children's interference with the sabotage, to take them to the
Goblin Forest. There, they meet the evil Goblin King who tries eat
Gonzargo and Rodrigo. Mr. Dumpty informs Tom and Mary, who go to the
forest to rescue them. As the goblins are weak against light, they use a
flashlight to fight them off and escape. Barnaby knocks Mr. Dumpty over
a bridge (while giving a mockery saying of the nursery rhyme which
bears the egg's name) for the key to the factory and tries to enter it, but
is stopped by Tom, Mary, Jack, Jill, Gonzargo, and Rodrigo, and is forced
to retreat.
As Tom and Mary finish the Toy Factory's order and fall in love, Barnaby
leads the goblins to Toyland, where they invade, setting fire to the
buildings and roasting Gonzargo and Rodrigo on a spit. Tom activates the
toy soldiers, who soundly defeat the goblins and put out the fire, saving
all of Toyland (including Gonzargo and Rodrigo). As Barnaby insults the
Goblin King, who tries to kill him, but Jack, Jill, and all the toy soldiers
shine lights on him, destroying the Goblin King. Barnaby calls him a
"pathetic ogre", and the other goblins confront him and chase him off,
out of Toyland (though whether they finally catch him and eat him is
unclear).
Finally Christmas arrives; Tom has repaired Mr. Dumpty. Santa magically
shrinks the toy soldiers down to the size of action figures and loads them
into his bag. He notices Barnaby's cat, Scat, who is now homeless since
Barnaby's disappearance; he picks her up and pets her. Jill asks for Scat,
and just as she gets her, Santa continues on his journey.
In the end, Jack and Jill become the adopted children of Tom and Mary.
