Fat Albert (2004)

Well, if you grew up watching Fat Albert in cartoon form and were looking for a nostalgic parody a la Scooby Doo, don't waste your money. Not to say this is the worst film I have ever seen, but I can't understand why they would choose to make the film for children that have no idea what Fat Albert is. Recently they did the same thing with the Bad News Bears.

Fat Albert could have been a great 20 something movie that many people would have gone to see. Instead, it's almost like Disney got a hold of it. SNL did a parody of Fat Albert, with Keenan Thompson, that was actually funny. They should have stuck with that.

It also didn't help that the Sandlot 2, straight to video, was teased in the previews. Should have been a premonition.
