It is still nonetheless a <i>classic</i> worth having.</font></b> Classic pRinSe© 2002-11-01 00:00:00 2002-11-01 00:00:00 5 638 One of the more ridiculous environmental films ever produced. The somewhat poorly animated short features Junior Raindrop talking to Father Cloud (we won't get into discussion of what a stud Father cloud must be) about letting him go. Soon, Junior Raindrop is falling down to earth, and because of poor watershed conditions, or something, he and some friends start to flood, creating havoc. I am not too sure about the factual basis of this. But maybe Father Cloud is to blame for all the water in the floods? ANYWAYS, don't take this film too seriously. One more note, all the voices in the characters sound awfully strange, and the narrator's whistling speech impedement is quite grating to listen to. Inspired Lunacy Spuzz 2002-12-16 00:00:00 2002-12-16 00:00:00 2 1332 This animated Forest Service film blows the lid off of the problem of juvenile delinquency among raindrops. Junior Raindrop forms a raindrop gang that wreaks havoc on the landscape, and all because of improper watershed management. This film's metaphor is so ridiculous and its animation so childlishly primitive that it's a real hoot to watch and very mstable. Wait'll you see Junior wearing a gangster's outfit and wielding a blackjackÂÂyou'll never look at rain the same again. Ratings: Camp/Humor Value: ****. Weirdness: ****. Historical Interest: ***. Overall Rating: ****. The Adventures of Junior Raindrop Christine Hennig 2003-02-16 15:38:31 2003-02-16 15:38:31 4 Many films around here show various attempts to explain things by analogy, comparing a new concept with something more easily understood or already well known. In this film, poor watershed management is illustrated by a... wayward youth raindrop. I am not making that up. You have to watch it just to see how hilariously THAT works out. "whooping it up for a flash flood!" uniQ 2011-05-03 03:41:21 2003-10-25 19:29:07 4 8771 A strange hybrid of two genres: the juvenile delinquent film and the educational science film. Junior Raindrop runs with a bad crowd, dispenses death with a tommy gun, and yet is forgiven by his big father in the sky. Juvenile Delinquent Raindrop ridetheory 2004-01-18 15:34:17 2004-01-18 15:34:17 3 37369 This bizzare film, tells the story of "Jr" a raindrop who on the way to see his mother (earth) decides to form a gang he runs amok with some other runaway raindrops and create a flash flood and eventually cause catastorphys in various places. Here's the real kicker THE MEASEGE OF THIS IS TO NOT CUT DOWN TREES. That's right we're not supposed to cut down tree's because a gang of raindrops with guns might fall thier and create a flash flood. Thier are several moral lessons that could of been taught with this film but saving the trees not one of them. It is good for hilarity though. Highly recomended.
