**Title: Animaniacs: Animational Return**
**Genre: Fantasy/Adventure Comedy**
---
**Act 1: The Fall**
The film opens with a nostalgic montage celebrating the peak popularity of "Animaniacs," showcasing beloved episodes and fan-favorite antics set within the Warner Bros. studio lot. Yakko Warner (voiced by Rob Paulsen), Dot Warner (voiced by Tress MacNeille), and Wakko Warner (voiced by Jess Harnell) are basking in their success, constantly being approached by agents with new deals.
One day, Dot and Wakko are approached by a slick agent with a proposal: a sci-fi movie that promises to make them bigger stars than ever. Yakko, who reads the fine print, advises caution, but Dot and Wakko, enticed by the promise of more fun and fame, eagerly sign the contract. To their horror, the movie is never made, and they inadvertently trip a clause that leads to the cancellation of their show.
**Act 2: The Lost Era**
Thirty years later, we are transported to the present day where Dot and Wakko, now with adult voices reflecting their age, have chosen to undergo CGI surgery. They thrive in the convention circuit, beloved by nostalgia-driven fans. Dot (still voiced by Tress MacNeille but with a more mature tone) and Wakko (voiced by Jess Harnell with similar adult tweaks) run a successful booth at Comic-Con, engaging with their fanbase but feeling the emptiness of their glory days.
In stark contrast, Yakko (voiced by Rob Paulsen with a more mature timbre), who resisted the CGI surgery, struggles with a mundane office job. He's caught in the 9-to-5 grind, missing the excitement of their animated past.
**Act 3: The Rise of the Misfit Trio**
Events take a sudden turn when the three former stars reunite at a high school friend's funeral, only to be approached by a police officer in animated/live-action hybrid style—a dedicated, somewhat-nerdy cop who has been following the case of numerous disappearances of animated and live-action characters.
The officer has a lead: Elmo (now voiced by a gruff and bitter Bryan Cranston), who, no longer a beloved children’s character, has turned to a life of crime. Owning a derelict factory, Elmo has been kidnapping characters who failed to pay their dues, altering their appearances with a sinister machine, and forcing them into creating bootleg versions of their original works for profit.
**Act 4: Reawakening Nostalgia**
Yakko, Dot, and Wakko, recharged with a sense of purpose and responsibility for their friends, agree to work together with the officer. They navigate a dangerous, wildly contrasting world combining live-action, CGI, traditional 2D, and stop-motion terrains.
Throughout their journey, they encounter characters who have been altered beyond recognition. With immense effort, they manage to rescue their friends Indy, Rush, Rico, and Sandy, restoring them to their previous states, albeit with some comedic quirks due to technical malfunctions in the transformation process.
Despite various conflicts between the trio—particularly surrounding Dot and Wakko's decision 30 years ago—they find a deeper understanding and ultimately reconcile.
**Act 5: The Final Showdown**
The climax sets the protagonists against Elmo in his factory. The machine malfunctions during the battle, transforming his henchmen into ridiculous forms—Wally becomes a fly with a wolf's head, for instance (voice now pitched hilariously high). Elmo, basking in his cruel humored command, is accidentally shot by his own device, turning into a grotesque amalgamation of other famous characters. This monstrous form, combining elements from Snowball, Zurg, Indominus Rex, Hulk, and Daffy Duck, makes Elmo an even greater threat.
Using their past experience with comic mischief albeit with a bit more maturity, Yakko, Dot, and Wakko cleverly outmaneuver Elmo. The fight is difficult, but their unity and resourcefulness finally lead to Elmo’s defeat.
**Act 6: The Resolution**
Just before Elmo's arrest, he manages to shoot Dot and Wakko, leaving Yakko distraught. However, the badges Yakko entrusted to them earlier save them. They wake up, and a heartfelt moment of apology and reaffirmed sibling bond ensues.
The FBI, led by the cleverly modified Pinocchio (from Guillermo del Toro’s 2022 film), arrest Elmo and his henchmen. All the kidnapped characters, including Gogo Dodo, are freed from their imprisonment.
**Epilogue: The New Beginning**
With their reputations redeemed and their synergy renewed, Yakko, Dot, and Wakko initiate an updated reboot of "Animaniacs." It's an instant hit, merging nostalgic charm with contemporary flair, proving that true legacy never fades.
The film closes with a heartwarming montage of the trio’s new adventures, showing them thriving not just as characters but as a family, ready to take on the world, one zany episode at a time.
**End Credits:**
Set against the backdrop of animated chaos, the end credits feature cameos, blooper reels, and a catchy, updated “Animaniacs” theme song performed by the original cast.

Prompt: Write the crossover film (with live action, computer animation, traditional 2D animation, and stop-motion animation) 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 and acting more mature and grown-up due to their 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 Comic-Con business, while Yakko (now with an adult voice through age and acting more mature and grown-up due to his 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, who were kidnapped a few years before the modern times) 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 but retaining Wally's wolf head, and his voice becomes high-pitch and quite even when shouting), 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, which consists of Elmo's torso (for his torso), Snowball's (from the Secret Life of Pet's film) head (for his head), Zurg's (from the Toy Story franchise) hand cannon (for his right arm), Indominus's (from Jurassic World) clawed arm (for his left hand), Hulk's (from the Marvel Cinematic Universe) leg (for his right leg), and Daffy Duck's (from the Looney Tunes series) leg (for his left leg). Elmo then 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 (albeit with more seriousness due to the three protagonists' adult ages) 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 but not limited to 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.
