Part Three: No Gummy is an Island

Several things happened when we last left off Gummy and his friends. Gummy and his pals took their private jet to the North Pole, crashed into ice sculptures, introduced themselves to the elves, sang for no real reason, and brought out a Cool Car. That is just the start of this bizarre movie I have made myself watch. What has my mind come to? Well, onto the movie!

The elves seem very pleased at the Cool Car, so Gummy grabs a megaphone to announce that they are unaware of the joy of receiving gifts. Gummy then puts three elves in the car because, well, that's the maximum amount of passengers it can fit. Harry then goes Fly Crazy over some fly on the rear view window, which makes his long tongue stuck to the car as it starts moving, as if he was jet skiing. Even Kala is baffled. A few shots later, there is a noticeable animation/continuity error where we can see that the elf in the front seat has been moved to the center of the front row, and another elf has taken its place, thus increasing the number of elves from three to four. You would think someone on the animation department would have noticed this, right? I mean, I can tell that the animation definitely isn't anything special or even close to top notch (as it should, being a Made-for-TV Movie), but stuff like this is still hard to believe in quality terms. Back to the movie, Gummy notices Harry and stops the car to let him jump in.

After the ride, Gummy continues to explain his lengthy plan for Saving Christmas. Gummy decides to leave the elves to make toys while Gummy and his gang go search for Santa. Harry then asks the elves about the night they last saw Santa Claus. Time for a "How We Got Here" speech!

Apparently, Santa was getting to go to Christmas Island, as he sometimes goes there for R&R around the holidays. Time for Flashback Effects!

An alien had been stalking Santa as he was packing up for his vacation. Santa then talks to the elves about the preparations for the holidays that all of them have in mind. One of the elves then regrets the situation as he looks back at it, going as far as to thinking it's his fault. He also feels embarrassed that he's saying this in front of a "famous dancing green confectionary from the internet". This continues to make me wonder why the internet videos were still better in animation quality. I think it's because these novelty song videos just never translate into Christmas specials well. I also keep thinking I should Liveblog the Hamster Dance movie next... if I can find it due to its obscurity! Gummy continues to encourage them to make toys for the kids around the world. Gummy then asks where Christmas Island is, and the elves tell them to take a left when they reach Easter Island.

Kala: Fear not elves! The kind of Fantastic Four will bring back our man!

Gummy and his friends then get back into the private jet to search for Santa.

Harry: Turns out that elf wasn't just whistling fancy. Christmas Island is left after Easter Island. Just beyond Valentine Valley and Halloween Hill!

Cue ANOTHER Travel Montage. Apparently, according to this film's logic the North Pole is located somewhere southeast in the United States. Harry then does ANOTHER Crash Course Landing, this time being only a "partial disaster". Gummy then looks around via a Binocular Shot, and Vam Piro uses his convenient flying ability to come to the rescue. Gummy then decides to look for Santa.

We then see the reindeer drinking and playing poker. YOU KNOW, FOR KIDS! However, the reindeer are mad at Gummy for disturbing their game, and they go try to shoo them off. However, when Kala comes in, the reindeer have more respect. Kala, Harry, and Vam Piro then proceed to ask the reindeer a few questions about where Santa is. Harry then declares that they are hiding something to this music. Yes, they stole music from iMovie. Anyway, after Harry convinces the reindeer to tell them, the reindeer explain that Santa was captured by aliens. I am not even making this up. Let me be honest, this cliched, tasteless plot is really starting to bore me. I just really don't understand why they would air this on Vortexx. To be even more honest, I don't think making a movie out of a novelty song like this was a good idea to begin with. Anyway, it's Flashback Time!

While the reindeer were playing their Drinking Game, an alien named Allen teleported to the table. Allen challenged them to a game of cards, offering to take Santa if he were to win. Of course, The GM Is a Cheating Bastard, so he stole Santa quite easily.

So, while the reindeer cry over the fact that Santa got stolen because they lost a card game. All of a sudden, I want to see an Abridged Series of this, just to see how many Yu-Gi-Oh! references can be crammed in while spoofing this scene. CARD GAMES WITH ALIENS! Vam Piro then notices Rudy the Blue-nosed Moose, which Gummy decides they could use to find Santa. Harry then decides to guide Rudy. Based on the Running Gag, this can't end well.

Cue a brief flight sequence, where they see Santa on another island. They land just in time for Santa to greet them, and for Santa to notice Rudy's... strange friends.

Will Santa get to meet Gummy and his gang? Find out next time!
