▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄

-Watch for the words ‘Dastardly and Plot-

“Daaaad” Becky whined as she watched her father, the once brilliant scientist, now turned mad scientist. As he was getting ready to leave “dad promise me you won't commit any crimes this morning?” She said, crossing her arms. Two-brains stopped in his tracks and turned to face his daughter he had been plotting a particularly dastardly plan but at his daughter's behest he reconsidered. He slowly turned his head to Becky. “Uhm-” he started. Becky pinched her nose “Dad! You promised, I have my award ceremony at school and you promised to show up. You can't do that if you're in jail” she said clearly agitated.

Two-brains sighed “Oh darling I completely forgot I'm sorry” he looked down trying to think if he could get away with both. “Uhm what time was it?” He asked. While he could remember the conversation he had with her about it… . Vaguely, he couldn't remember any of the details. That was of course squeakies fault the mouse brain he had permanently fused to his body, its constant squeaking often led to migraines that caused him to block out some memories.

Becky sighed “The award ceremony starts at 9:30 but my class doesn't go until 10:00 so you have some time, just please don't be late like last time” she said as she walked towards the cost rack. She grabbed her backpack from the hook, ignoring her coat despite the wind chill outside. “Ok bye dad I'm going to school now” Becky said as she skipped to the door. Her father quickly grabbed her by the bag, his other hand grabbing her coat. He held it out silently and she took it with a groan.

-Later that same day across town at Fairview elementary school, Becky Boxtleiner was getting ready for her class's award ceremony-.

Becky paced back and further backstage as she listened to the other grades getting through their ceremony. She rang her hands together as she peaked out the curtain into the audience. Her eyes darted around. She pulled back and sighed as she looked around at her classmates. Most of them turned their heads as soon as she looked at them. She sighed and sulked over to the corner that had the so-called ‘Villainous kids’. Although to be fair they were actually villains. Becky, eh, not so much. She approached the group consisting of Veronica, Tobey and Eileen.

Tobey watched her approach and noting her dejected expression, the others seemed to have noticed it too. “Why awe you sad?!, you can't be sad on my birthday!” Eileen the perpetual birthday girl said, crossing her arms. Becky chuckled and reached out to Pat Eileen's head, whom she had actually found herself growing close to; due to the nature of her fathers work. “Oh I'm not sad Eileen I'm apprehensive that my dad's not going to show up! I mean he didn't even remember what today was!” She said, crossing her arms. “Appe-what now?” Eileen asked, her head tilted. “App-re-hen-sive” she said slowly “It means worried or fearful about something, for example I'm apprehensive or worried that my dad won't show up because he's out stealing cheese” she said crossing her arms.

Tobey looked up from his phone “Oh don't worry Becky, I've just texted the association and I can assure you that-'' he was cut off by their teacher looming over them. “Come on children, our class is up next” she said, ushering them to the curtain.

Becky dropped her voice to a whisper. “You can assure me what?” She asked, walking next to Toby. Only Toby didn't respond instead he ssshed her and made his way out to the stage.

Becky's concerns were only amplified by his lack of an answer. “I hope he's here” she mumbled, chewing on her bottom lip. She knew that she was at least up for the best reader award and the award for the most books read in the 5th grade. This was something she was proud of, an accomplishment she was proud of, something she wanted to share with her father. She was so caught up in her thoughts that she didn't realize that she had been pushed on the stage until she was stumbling forward. The bright lights blinded her. Becky brought her hands up to her eyes to block most of the light. She stumbled forward and then up onto the risers her class was meant to stand on. Her eyes went out to the crowd scanning around. She started to feel dejected, until she felt a nudge on her side. She looked over to the hand that nudged her. It was Eileen's hand and she had a big smile on her face. “Don't wowwy Becky- wecky look!” She said as she pointed to the back of the auditorium. Becky let her eyes follow into the direction that she was pointing. Becky's entire mood shifted and her face lit up. Excitedly she started to wave to the people in the back. Only to be nudged by the opposite hand it was Veronica with a sour expression on her face. “Becky stop it's about to start” she hissed as the announcer started to give out the awards. Becky chuckled awkwardly and put her hand down but her gaze never wavered from the group in the back, for not only had her father come he had brought other members of the association!

-later, after the ceremony-

Becky skipped down the stage stairs clutching her awards, she had in all won 4 awards all literacy based then she won an award for winning the most literacy related awards. So all and all, Becky Boxtleiner was clutching 5 awards as she made her way to the back corner of the auditorium. She greeted her dad with a hug “Dad you came! Look, I got 5!” She said holding up the awards.

Dr. Two-brains smiled and picked his daughter up laughing. “I know hun I saw I was here the whole time, we all were!” He said as he pointed to his ‘colleagues’ Becky turned her head to look; Chuck, the butcher, granny may, Leslie and Beatrice were all there. Becky gasped and wiggled down from her fathers arms. She ran up to Beatrice, her favorite aunt. “Bee!” She exclaimed as she hugged her

Beatrice hugged back and bent down to be eye level with her. “Hey Becky! I saw all the awards you won, all the prizes, certificates, 5 perfect copies of literacy based awards! Want me to copy them for you?” She asked. Becky nodded “Always! Gotta have some to put up to show future colleges! Then I gotta hang em on the wall!” Becky said as she held them out to her. Beatrice shrugged and used her abilities, so Becky was now holding 10 instead of 5. “Thank you so much!” She said happy as she put the awards in a folder in her backpack.

Becky was about to speak when Leslie spoke up. “This is a big celebration, I think we should go out to celebrate” she said in her usual nasally tone that made it hard to tell if she was being sarcastic. Beatrice looked up “How are we going to do that baby? We're villains, criminals, lawbreakers! We're banned, barred, forbidden” from all of the restaurants in town. Besides, it's only 10am doesn't Becky have more classes?” She asked and Becky held up a finger to answer but didn't get the chance to. “No, I'm getting her out early because I'm so proud of her! Besides, Leslie is right! This does deserve a celebration.” he turned to his daughter.

“So Becky, where do you wanna go? I hope it's somewhere cheese related!” He tacked on in a squeaker voice. Becky tilted her head considering her options. “Uhm-” she looked around some more. “Can we go over to Mr.Bigs!? He's got like everything and that massive trampoline!” She asked excitedly. Becky actually spent a lot of time at his house between the association meetings held there and the countless times he had babysat her.

Becky and the villains around her turned to Leslie who was already pulling out the keys. “Mr.bigg is out of the state but we can go over” she said. Becky punched the air. “Heck yes! Big trampoline here I come!” She said excitedly punching the air in front of her. The adults around her gave a chuckle. Becky gasped as she felt someone pick her up “Someone's exzited” the butcher said mispronouncing the word excited. Becky grimaced at the mispronunciation but looked at him who had picked her up. The butcher was strong and so unlike her father, who had to use both arms he only needed one to support her weight. That of course left his other hand free to do this; he summoned a Slim Jim and handed it to Becky, it was his way of saying “Job well done!” “Mmm, my favorite!” Becky said as she took a bite. “Well she should probably get going.” She jumped down from his arms and walked back to her father. “Ok can you sign me out now so we can go?” she asked excitedly.

Dr. Two brains nodded and grabbed her hand. “Of course Becky!” he said as they started walking towards the doors of the auditorium to head to the office and sign her out. As Becky was holding her dads hand she thought of something. “Hey dad? What exactly were you gonna do this morning? What was the dastardly plot you had?” she asked not sure what he had planned. “Uhm Becky I'd love to answer you but I'm afraid I don't know what plot or Dastardly means.” Becky stared at him, her father was a genius so she found that hard to believe, but she was never one to pass up on the opportunity to give the definition. Becky nodded “well dad, to plot means to plan something illegal in secret and Dastardly means wicked or cruel” she said with a smile. “Oh! Well this morning I was going to-” he looked around and bent down. “Turn the city water supply Into cheese, cheese!” He stood up as squeakie let out an evil high pitched cackle at the word cheese. It caused those who were left in the auditorium to turn to them, “dad! Don't let squeakie evil cackle while I'm at school!” She whined her face red. Dr.Two-brains immediately stopped “Right, sorry darling” she said as he grabbed her hand again continuing his way to the doors.

Tom and Jerry Meet Sherlock Holmes (2010)

У "Тома и Джерри" выходили - а может, и выходят до сих пор - глуповатые пародиийные мультфильмы, кроссоверы с различными франшизами вроде "Волшебника страны Оз" или "Вилли Вонки и шоколадной фабрики". Не обошла эта участь и "Шерлока Холмса". Я вообще удивлен, что по нему не выходит больше детского контента, учитывая детскую любовь к Холмсу - таким проектам я вполне готов простить поверхностно-стереотипного Холмса и туповатого толстяка Уотсона.

Этот мультфильм я уже смотрел, когда он впервые вышел, но запомнились мне в основном только топорные, но забавные отсылки вроде таверны Рэтбоун Инн, мьюзик холле Брюса Найджела, эпизодического персонажа по имени Бретт Джереми и могилы некоего Дойла (даты жизни не совпадают). Сам Холмс и Уотсон - один поверхностно-стереотипный и другой туповатый толстяк - являются полноценными действующими лицами, а не просто короткими камео.

Но главными героями все-таки являются, по-прежнему безмолвные, Том и Джерри. Джерри здесь эдакий маленький хвостатый ассистент Холмса, который увлекается химическими опытами, носит плащ-пелерину и дирстокер и живет в норке за стеной. Что до Тома, который тут носит сюртук и бабочку, то он оказался вмешан в эту историю случайно, когда доставлял Холмсу важное письмо. Сюжет крутился вокруг похищенного алмаза и рыжеволосой певички по имени Ред. Сцена ее выступления показалась мне несколько фривольной для детского мультфильма, но в общем-то не хуже, ч��м подобная же сцена в диснеевском "Великом мышином сыщике". Уотсон и Джерри от нее, кстати, поплыли, но Холмс особого интереса не выказазал, пусть и целовал ей руку.

Помимо Тома и Джерри с Холмсом и Уотсоном здесь также действовали другие знакомые персонажи - например, было несколько сценок с бульдогом Спайком и его сыночком Тайком (они работали охранниками), также действовали меланхоличный песик Друпи и его напарник Бутч (они работали в полиции), а еще появился приятель Джерри, мышонок Таффи (только здесь он не подброшенный сиротка, а мышь-священник). Что до шерлокианской части истории, то в какой-то момент выяснилось, что за всем этим стоит профессор Мориарти, который выглядит как типичный то ли мультяшный, то ли оперетточный злодей.

Что до шерлокианских отсылок, то здесь я вероятно натягиваю сову на глобус - но, по-моему, я уловил отсылку на "Великого мышиного сыщика" (сцена с танцовщицей), на "Семипроцентный раствор" (драка Холмса со злодеем на крыше едущего поезда едущей повозки) и даже на "Шерлока Холмса" с Дауни-младшим (недостроенный тауэрский мост). Но скорее всего настоящая крупная отсылка была только одна - кража драгоценностей из Тауэра (и нет, это отсылка к фильму 1939 года с Рэтбоуном, а не к сериалу "Шерлок").

Разумеется, помиимо слабенькой детективно-приключенческой линии, основой мультфильма служили привычные том-и-джерри-вские визуальные гэги, многие из которых были просто повторами из классики на разный лад. Также по-моему, авторы переборщили с вилами, которые постоянно втыкались в филейную часть бедолаги Тома. Но многие моменты вызывали искреннюю улыбку и смех, например, сцена с органом, из труб которого поочередно вылетали то Том, то Джерри.

В общем, забавный и непритязательный мультик-кроссовер для юных зрителей. Да и идет он меньше пятидесяти минут.
