Trivia
The film almost never came out because it was held up for almost a year due to a lawsuit by a Seattle fisherman named Rodger May who claimed he owned the copyright to the film. The lawsuit was eventually withdrawn. All records of the lawsuit are public and can be found by a search for "Mayday vs. Animal Crackers".

Quotes
Chesterfield: They say a circus is a lot like a family, but every family needs that special something that holds it all together.

Crazy credits
Heffalump, Smurfette, Tom and Jerry and Fozzie Bear are credited towards the end. These characters were referenced during the film.

Such Delightful, Imaginative Fun!

This movie start to finish is just the most imaginative fun. Scott Christian Sava's creation of animal crackers is the most fun I have seen in a long time. I loved every minute of this movie. I don't want to give away spoilers, but magic, magic, oh my fun magic

This is the circus that every child dreamed of and almost tantalizingly got, but never quite as brilliantly as this movie. From the opening with Horatio we see the difference between good and evil. Or in this case cruelty vs gentle loving kindness!

And that is the extent of my spoilers you will get! Watch Animal Crackers today and enjoy the imaginative ride it will take you on. The voice actors were brilliantly cast. Some of my favorites too. Patrick Warburton, Danny DeVito, Ian MacKlellan (sp?) and so many more! Honestly, what are you waiting for! Go... Go.... watch it now!
