**Animaniacs: Animational Return**

Prompt: Write the crossover film called "Animaniacs: Animational Return", which is similar to Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers (the 2022 film), that features the three Animaniacs characters, Yakko Warner, Dot Warner, and Wakko Warner, as the film's main protagonists, who, in the very beginning of the film, unintentionally got their show cancelled by having Dot and Wakko sign a contract (despite Takko's plead on not signing the contract) to have the three of them be in a sci-fi movie, which was never made. The film is then set to 30 years later, into modern times, when Dot and Wakko (now with adult voices through age) had CGI surgery to make them computer-animated instead of being traditionally 2D-animated (like some other characters from other media, including but not limited to the Smurfs) and have thrived in their ComiCon business, while Yakko (now with an adult voice through age) is struggling with his job at an office workplace. Later, these three characters reunited together once again and, along with the protagonistic police officer, investigate the disappearances of several animated characters (including their best friend Gogo Dodo) and live action characters. The film's main villain/antagonist is Elmo (from Sesame Street), who is now an adult/grownup (with a gruffy man voice) rather than a kid (due to natural aging from being a kid since many years ago) and is no longer beloved by people and had lost his job, and Elmo is very bitter and hateful, running a crime business and has three trusty yet-incompetent henchmen (Leonard the 2D-drawn lion (voiced by David Tennant), Wally the CGI (dead-eyed Polar Express-styled) anthropomorphic wolf (voiced by Chris Parnell), and Vlad the Gumby-styled claymation character (voiced by Jack Black)). Elmo and his henchmen would be responsible for the kidnappings of the several characters (like Sandy from Spongebob, Pinocchio from Shrek, Rico from Madagascar, Marvin the Martian from Looney Tunes, Rush from Megaman, Indy the Indoraptor from Jurassic World Fallen Kingdom (who can talk and act like a human, unlike his character, the unnamed Indoraptor from the Jurassic World Fallen Kingdom film, since that's just the character he played as in that Jurassic World Movie), Iron Man from the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and the best friend of Yakko, Dot, and Wakko) and these kidnapped characters have one thing in common; they had failed to come to Elmo's terms of owing money, thus they have their appearances altered by the large operating machine designed to alter animated and life action characters' bodies, and are shipped overseas to produce horrible bootlegs of their works for the rest of their lives (unless some of them have been already rescued and restored to their previous state like Indy, Rush, Rico, and Sandy, who are saved near the end of the film alongside ). This film would have conflicts between characters, and the three protagonists would fight over having agreed to sign a contract 30 years ago, but that argument would finally be settled near the end of the film and reconcile. Near the final battle of the film, the four protagonists battle Elmo and his henchmen, as the machine that alters any animated and life action characters' bodies malfunctions and shoot at Wally (who becomes a tiny fly with Wally's head and his voice becomes high-pitch and quite), making Elmo laugh with malice and humor, but Elmo is then shot by the machine and painfully transforms into a giant amalgamation of various animated and live action characters, and used his mutated form to his advantage against Yakko, Dot, and Wakko, but the three heroes, learning from what mischief they did in their show, used their comic mischief to fight back against Elmo, with difficulty but succeeds against Elmo. After the final battle, the FBI, led by Pinocchio (from Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio 2022 film), arrives to arrest Elmo and all of his henchmen (including his three main henchmen), but not long before Elmo shot Dot and Wakko, before Elmo was taken away by the FBI for Elmo's and his henchmen's crimes. Yakko then finds Dot and Wakko unconscious, fearing they are dead from Elmo's hand cannon, apologizing for his behavior towards Dot and Wakko, before Dot and Wakko wakes up (revealing that the badges that Yakko gave them saved their lives against Elmo) and they accept Yakko's apology, and then find a warehouse storing many more kidnapped animated characters (including Yakko's, Dot's, and Wakko's best friend Gogo Dodo) and live action characters were in it and, thanks to the FBI and Yakko, Dot, and Wakko, were all rescued by them. At the end of the film, the three characters Yakko, Dot, and Wakko made an Animaniacs remake and was an instantly huge success. This film would be a live-action/animated adventure comedy film and have a similar, but not identical plot to the Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers 2022 film.
