This was a short story we had to read in 12th grade. Possibly by a Canadian author who I think is male. The plot was very similar to Devil Went Down To Georgia. A town is corrupt from this dude who makes booze. A priest discovers that it's the devil and wants to take him down. He goes to confront the devil, gets into a fiddle contest and wins. In the end he destroys the devil and then marries his daughter.

An animated show, say eighties or early nineties (that when I did see this, could have been older of course). I only remember the intro, were the premise of the show is told:
We see the Big Bad climbing a very high tower or mountain under a star sky, in order to get the MacGuffin (I think it was some crystal thing), which rests at the peak of the tower (or mountain). He can almost reach it, but then for some reason it shatters into many tiny pieces, which somehow disperse into every corner of the galaxy/universe/whatever. Now, the protagonists (normal humans from Earth???) are on a quest to gather all the Mac Guffin pieces, before the Big Bad can get them into his hands]].
My memories are very vague, so I might have misremembered a thing or two, but I thing I have successfully pinned down the essentials of this

This just popped into my brain and is killing me. I remember watching this on either Nickelodeon or Disney. I think it was a Made for TV movie. It involved kids in a post-apocalyptic desert world (one of them may have had powers), and they windsurfed across the desert. Had to have been Post Alex Mack, but Pre Eddie Mc Dowd Nick Era.

Okay, I remember playing this bug game when I was in elementary school (early 00's) on the computer (probably pc). It involved a bug rescuing his family from a spider, but had quite a few levels for a kid's game. I remember a snow level, a desert level (with dive-bombing mosquitoes and snakes with boomerang cowboy hats), a water level, and a grassy level. The bug himself was a green... something, and there was this deep bass voice that said "You the man, bug" at main menu screen.

Watched this in Malaysia just a month ago, so it was voiced-over in Malay. The title didn't show.
A dark and bloody anime that had something about an experiment called Project ALICE that went wrong. They were trying to perform an experiment on a little girl with a spiral mark on her abdomen. Her village was destroyed (something like that). There was a significant toy animal somewhere.
At the point where I started watching, there were five main characters. The main character was a girl with round glasses. Then there was a scientist guy with glasses; he was eaten by a skeletal animal. Also, a badass guy with a his arm tattooed with the name 'Laura'. And a young boy and his female guardian (whom I can't seem to remember much of).

This a book I read back in the sixth grade. I remember specific details about it, it was about this seemly boy genius (or at least top of his class), I remember he discreetly gave party invitations to some of his classmates for a tea party or something so that the uninvited people wouldn't feel left out. He was once bullied and had his book bag painted to say "I am a ass" which he changed to say "I am a passenger on spaceship earth". His teacher (or some other adult) was a paraplegic but still drove. He was wondering how she 'activated the pedals'. I think there was some kind of show with a female dog in there too.

I think I saw this in the theater, so it would likely be early to mid 2000s. It was about these siblings who were stealing few million dollars from the bank their mother worked at in order to keep their horse racing track afloat. I remember the mother said "I think about you every day at work" and it turns out that one of the passwords is her kids names. Ring any bells?

A very old film I saw when I was young. It involved two kingdoms, and the people were made of colors—or represented the colors or something. There is a war between the two kingdoms, and the prince has to save the princess. At the end, all live happily ever after and there is a rainbow. or something. Help! I just want to know wast this movie is.

I know it best as a catch phrase from Atop The Fourth Wall, but does anything before it use "Our hero, ladies and gentlemen" in a sarcastic tone?

I'm choosing literature but this is actually a comic featured in Heavy Metal magazine. It was featured about the early 90s, I think (at the earliest the end of the 80s). I only saw the issue being read by a bunch of schoolmates and the rest of the details are all hearsay. From what I saw, it was about a tribe of women on an alien planet. They lure warrior men to go down a huge cliff wall, where the rest of the tribe hide in waiting to capture them. Once the men are caught, the women would tie them up and have sex with them to impregnate themselves; then they would, errr, cook them for the whole tribe to eat. From what I've heard, the planet was slowly falling apart (hence the giant cliff faces) and the inhabitants try to keep it together with cables/rope, and the women follow the ways of the black widow spider (hence their treatment towards men). I really would like to know the title of this story and who made it, and even the issue of the Heavy Metal mag that featured it. Thanks!

Okay, so for some reason I suddenly remembered a part of this cartoon I used to watched when I was little, so like mid/late 90's. All I can remember was there was this round green monster who kinda looked like Mike Wazowski from Monsters, Inc. and I think there was human but I'm not sure what gender. There were also these wolves who were blue and greyish striped and I'm pretty sure they were the bad guys and they looked a tiny bit like one of the Digimon monsters. I remember vaguely a part of an episode where the green monster had a sort of necklace thing which the wolves wanted so he hid it in his mouth. A wolf kept asking him to show him the under and over side of his tounge "under, over, under, over.." to catch the monster out and get the necklace from him, while other wolves searched the human for it, but then they found it in the green monster's mouth. I'm sure there were other characters, but apart from that I can't remember anthing, not the theme song or what channel it was on, but I think maybe Fox Kids or Nickelodeon?

Okay so, I once watched this movie and now I can't find it again.
It was about a girl who managed to travel back in time thanks to an elevator, and she came to the same building only like 100 years back or something. There she met a girl her age and after some adventure (I think chasing away the mean man who wanted to marry her mother?) the girl went back home and told her dad about it.
Then the girl and her dad went back in time together and he ended up marrying the other girl's mother and after that they lived happily ever after. Sounds familiar?

Kids catoon that I saw on Australian Nickelodeon (no idea if it was on US Nick as well or not) in the mid-90's. Set somewhere in Africa, main character was a teenage boy (dressed in an orange shift thing), accompanied by a neurotic rabbit-man and a girl who was human at night and a gazelle during he day. They were on some sort of quest, guided by two water spirits/deities (a male and female, spoke in unison, appeared in rivers as humanoids with bodies made of water and orange/yellow/red masks) against an evil fire spirit/deity.
