Rugrats in Paris: The MovieGets Misted
Above: The film's logo & cast, from the Unofficial Rugrats Online. Cast (clockwise, from upper left): Tommy, Chuckie, Lil, Phil, Dil, Kimi, Angelica


Somehow, those pesky kids managed to come out with a sequel to their $100 million grossing film "The Rugrats Movie". "Viva Rock Vegas" this ain't -- it's much better than the original. This time the babies go to Paris (of course) and they get a new character (the one on the lower left of the logo at the top). It involves Tommy's daddy doing some repairing at a local amusement park, and Chuckie's daddy getting a new wife (thus no longer making "Rugrats" a "single dad" show). Anyway, you can send in riffs at rover_wow@yahoo.com.
Here's a riff from the the ad for the Burger King watch collection based on the movie, from Jesse Shearer: "when the voiceover asks 'What's all the rage in Paris?' I respond with 'Being connected with a Rugrats movie, for starters. I hear the French are really irked over it.'"
From Pokejedservo:
Pictures from here.
Angelica dressed as flower lady trying to get on to a Reptar robotChazz and Coco LaBouche (dressed like a peacock) at the Notre Dame, getting married
Angelica: HEY YOU! GET BACK DOWN HERE! Pastor: Are you sure this is legal? Because I'm not quite sure what is THAT next to you.
Coco talking on a cellphone during the above scene Jean-Claude talking to Coco
Why Rugrats & Verizon should NEVER mix.

From Pokejedservo:
Stu and Chazz at an online dating servicePhil & Lil looking at a snail robot used in the theme park parade (pic of that below)
Why am I NOT sure whether I want to know what they're looking at?
Tommy's father Stu holding up the blueprint of the theme park's Reptar robotDil and Coco
Stu: HEY THE LEFT ARM SHOULD'VE BEEN DISFISGURED AND THE RIGHT LEG SHOULD BE NON-EXISTANT! WHAT'S GOING ON HERE?! My isn't this a really lovely meeting of the minds huh?
Tommy, Chuckie and Kimi at the top of the theme park's "volcano"Phil & Lil watching the theme park's big stage show
Tommy: Don't worry Chuckie, jumping off of tall buildings is a fun & easy thing to do, trust me. Chuckie (thinking): I'm beginning to wonder if Angelica isn't the ONLY untrustworthy pickle.Lil is not too impressed with Phil's MSTing attempts. Phil: THIS MOVE STINKS WORSE THAN MY DIAPIES!
Chazz looking at Coco's gift to him: a golden inhaler
Well you got to give Coco some credit, at least her inhaler gift looks faker than her.

From Pokejedservo:
Yes, more.
Angelica talking to Susie about going to Paris: "I'm going to Paris and you're 
not"The Rugrats shoved back in their seats as their flight to Paris takes off
Susie (thinking): Oh lord just how many hours is she going to go on & on NOW? Ah yes Airplanes, the THX sound system of global transportation.
Phil holds up barf bagChuckie falls into Angelica's lap
Phil: I wonder if this barf bag will look good in Angelica's shoe... Angelica: GET OFF OF MY LAP FINSTER! (Thinking: When is he going to learn that he is NOT a baby, I mean he doesn't even wear diapers anymore! Maybe I should stop calling him "dumb baby"...)
The Rugrats evicted from first class (where Angelica has just sneaked into)Kimi shown for the first time as her mom brings her into a Japanese restaurant
Angelica: Well there goes the neighborhood...What's a stranger sight? A Japanese woman wearing a beret in a Japanese Resturant in France or a Tim Curry-voiced Sumo Wrestler? Choices...
Kimi talking with the other babies: note her short jumpersKimi has just drawn Reptar on a chalkboard in preschool... this BTW is a brief "throwaway" scene featuring winners of some contest as the preschoolers on the left
Notice on how Kimi's skirt is much shorter than Lil's? Even in American Animation, Oriental young girl's skirts are generally much shorter than American women's skirts. Coincidence? Probably not...Kimi: I'm a true artist like Angelica!
Kimi and Angelica, in the mouth of a Reptar robot, with a snail robot chasing them The Rugrats at the controls of the Reptar robot, with Tommy perched on Chuckie's head
Angelica: Which one of you order escargot? Chuckie: Tommy will you PLEASE stop pulling my hair!
Angelica in the Reptar robot's hand Chazz reading a (lengthy) wedding poem
Oh don't she look pretty here huh? Chaz: Guess I should've told her that "rip" was a part of the script huh?
The Rugrats encounter the snail robot again Another shot of an increasingly impatient Coco at her wedding
Tommy: Phil! Lil! The ghost of your last lunch is back and he's mad! Coco: Why does this thing make me look like I should be voiced by Glenn Close instead of Susan Sarandon?!

From Kevin P.:
Same Kimi and chalkboard pic from above
After the kids find out how closely the dinosaur's back resembled kimi's hair, their simple minds didn't want to be with a dinosaur anymore


Chazz and his wedding poem, again
