Editorial: Why Did LarryBoy Save Dr. Flurry?

Hi, I'm the Whatsoever Critic. I review just about anything.

If you didn't see this movie or don't know what this movie is about, then stop reading now.
(pause)
You actually saw this movie? Okay.

I recently did a review on The League of Incredible Vegetables, which had me give out mixed reviews. I remember saying that I would do an editorial on a certain scene in that movie: when LarryBoy saved Dr. Flurry from the destruction of the penguin ship.

I betcha people were split on this scene. I betcha people had mixed reviews about this. I found myself shocked that LarryBoy would go out of his way to save Dr. Flurry - the same guy that had kidnapped him, and had held him in an icy prison.
According to the LarryBoy Wiki, Dr. Flurry was, by far, the first villain to be rescued by LarryBoy, despite his crimes against the hero.

In fact, he's the first villain, up to date, to be saved, because...
1. The Fib and the Rumor Weed were monsters; and they just vanished when they were defeated.
2. There was no reason for the Bad Apple to be saved in her movie, because one, she's temptation; and two, she was just all-around evil.
So, I decided to analyze this compassionate gesture towards Dr. Flurry a little bit more.

Why Dr. Flurry Shouldn't Have Been Saved:
Dr. Flurry was the movie's antagonist, no doubt. He threatened to take over Bumblyburg by literally "freezing" people in their own fears. He's been on the run from authorities. And plus, he has evil penguin minions doing his bidding.
Everything about this guy was weird... unbelievably weird. He has a weird accent, and has a weird way of conducting himself as a villain.

So here, we have an oddball that would go to extreme lengths to take over a city with his villainy. Doesn't he seem so unlikable... so unlikable that people would care less whether or not he makes it out alive in this movie?
But what may piss people off to where they wish that Dr. Flurry was left to die... is that Dr. Flurry committed the biggest crime to LarryBoy fans: kidnapping LarryBoy.

One, how dare you have LarryBoy get captured! And two, that was the dumbest twist of the whole movie. I mean, movie, since when did LarryBoy become the victim here? However, if Dr. Flurry had kidnapped Junior Asparagus, instead of LarryBoy, maybe that would've saved that scene, and maybe that would've made this movie more thriller-like.

Why Dr. Flurry Was Eligible to be Saved:
You may notice that near the end of the movie that Dr. Flurry shows some remorse, because of LarryBoy rescuing him.
Besides, unlike most cartoon villains, Dr. Flurry is one that doesn't take the villain-thing seriously enough.

Although he claims to have his day of conquest and revenge on the heroes that try to stop him, he still seems more like a pansy rather than a hardcore villain. This suggests that Dr. Flurry would most-likely repent from his evil ways, which is a rarity, compared to most cartoon villains.

So, now that we analyzed Dr. Flurry's side of the scenario, let's now look at LarryBoy's side.

LarryBoy is... well, it's best if I list his qualities:
1. smart

2. brave (most of the time)

3. would sacrifice his life for anyone

4. all-around friendly

So... WHY DID LARRYBOY SAVE DR. FLURRY?
(The answer may surprise you. )

Because LarryBoy is different from many other superheroes that we know in today's world. He's not Batman nor Spiderman (he's a combined-parody of both actually, when you watch his movies all the way through), and neither is he Superman; he's himself.

I can understand why LarryBoy wouldn't leave a baddie like Dr. Flurry to die of his own mischief and evil creations. Yeah, in most viewings of his movies, LarryBoy is, by far, the most "nonviolent" superhero that one would ever meet. He hardly kills anyone, or has the sense to let the enemy die, just because they're that evil. (Okay, that's except the Rumor Weed; but you have to realize that killing the Rumor Weed was Alfred's idea, not his.) Yeah, while people (good and bad alike) die left and right with all the other superheroes (ex. Batman, Spiderman, Superman, etc.), LarryBoy makes sure that everyone makes it out of a dire situation alive, no matter what their moral status is.
Yes, when you look at the good qualities of this hero, one can tell that LarryBoy has a big heart. In fact, he's a better Christ-imitator than all the other heroes for two reasons:
1. You may notice that in many viewings of the other heroes like Spiderman and Superman, they tend to make that "hanging on the cross" gesture with their arms whether they're either going to fight a battle (refer to Man of Steel)...

...or if they're passed out (refer to Spiderman 2).

However, this gesture backfires, because people, in their lives, die left and right; and they even go as far as letting the bad guy die in extreme cases. According to Scripture, Jesus discouraged violence, and never wanted to start a war. So, when He hung on the Cross, He bared everyone's sin, and gave up His life to redeem the world of its sin. Spiderman and Superman, however, may have been saving the day, but they weren't Jesus.
2. You may also notice that in the Dark Knight trilogy, Bruce Wayne, at the beginning, wanted to avenge his parents' death.

As the series progressed, his need to avenge his parents quickly transformed into wanting to go after the corrupt.

Needless to say, there's a lot of death involved in this hero's quest to... be a hero or a playboy (pick one). Therefore, he's not the best Christ-imitator, because he's an antihero; he's in his cape-crusader mode for himself. According to Scripture, Jesus was never selfish; in fact, He encouraged unconditional love- that's where "loving thy neighbor" comes in.
So you see, LarryBoy may not be Jesus Himself, but LarryBoy (seeing that he's in a Christian-based show called Veggietales) most likely wants to live by Christ's example, without being hypocritical. LarryBoy's kind and generous act towards Dr. Flurry shows that heroes can be heroes, as long as they shy away from being violent.

"The League of Incredible Vegetables" Veggietales DVD Review

Hi, I'm the Whatsoever Critic. I review just about anything.

Today, we're gonna be looking at a spoof of Marvel's The Avengers... Gee, I wonder why this would be called a spoof in the first place!
Well, when The Avengers were all the raves in 2012, so many shows either parodied and/or just satirized the movie with insults and rude humors. Even so many kids' shows tried to cash in on this popular superhero genre. However, a distinct few were tolerable and/or way better than the others.
However... today's movie was... interesting. By "interesting," I mean I had mixed reviews on this one. What am I talking about? The League of Incredible Vegetables.

Yep, it's the continuing adventures of LarryBoy! Gee, I wonder if this is Avengers-worthy. I wonder if the adventure is going to be action-packed. I wonder if our characters are going to be likable from beginning to end. Well, what?
Okay, I know what you're thinking: This movie doesn't have Loki in it! or This is like watching The Avengers for an hour without the explosions and monsters. Well, at least this spoof is better than Phineas and Ferb's spoof, Mission Marvel. You hear that, Disney Channel? Veggietales beat you to making an Avengers spoof, because Veggietales came out with theirs in October 2012, while you had to wait until August 2013 to release yours. (It pays to be first.)

But with that said, there's just something unbelievably odd about this movie. The movie feels that they have to build up a certain character: Junior Asparagus. That's right; they try to make Junior the real hero of this story. Yeah, they're gonna take a kid that's virtually done nothing but tell lies and rumors (please refer to Fib from Outer Space and Rumor Weed)- get in trouble, for that matter- and make him into superhero material. Are they high?! Look, I know Junior can be a likable character in Veggietales, but stealing LarryBoy's spotlight in a superhero movie... unacceptable!
Anyway, it's my pleasure to review this movie. So, let's cut right into The League of Incredible Vegetables.

Countertop Scene:
(skip it)

Opening Scene:
The story opens with Junior Asparagus, Laura Carrot, and Larry the Cucumber at a science museum. Laura is trying out an anti-gravity device and wants Junior to join her, but Junior tells her that he's afraid of heights.
-Is it fair to say that this is the highlight of the movie? That people are confronting their fears in this movie?
Junior then comes across a glass case holding a gun called the Fear Dar.
-I'm sorry, "Fear Dar" or "Fear Dart"? Might as well say "compute" (for computer) or "printe" (for printer) or "scanne" (for scanner). The possibilities are endless!
So the kids learn that the Fear Dar was invented by a mad scientist who wanted to use it to literally "freeze" people in fear whenever they're confronted by their fears. Oh, wait... this was explained to the kids by Officer Scooter.
Scooter: "Invented by a mad scientist, it detects exactly what someone's afraid of..."
-(mimicking Scooter) And it makes my Scottish accent get sillier.
So the officer assures the kids that nobody will steal the Fear Dar... when a group of penguins steal the Fear Dar.
-Thank God the Penguins of Madagascar aren't doing this robbery; otherwise, that would've been an odd crossover.
But the alarms go off, when a piece of paper falls out of one penguin's cleavage; and this prompts Larry to... go to the elevator.
-You know where this is going with Larry... I mean, it's that obvious that Larry and LarryBoy are the same person.
Obviously, the officer can't do squat about the robbery, so guess who comes to the rescue...

LarryBoy: (in an "intimidating" voice): "The jig is up..."
(stopping to clear his throat)
"The jig is..."
(clearing his throat some more and then saying on the side: "That's better...")
"The jig is up, fish breath!"
-Uh, LarryBoy? You are aware that the place is getting robbed, right? I mean, was trying to sound like Batman more important than bringing criminals to justice? If so, then why don't the Avengers just sit and stuff their faces in a restaurant while Loki takes over Manhattan...

...or Batman just lounge in his self-created exile while Bane enslaves Gotham City?

So LarryBoy finally swings into action and confronts the penguins.

LarryBoy: "You're surrounded. Well, actually, I am. But you get the point."
-Seriously, three against one? Where the hell is the rest of the League?! I mean, come on! You're called The League of Incredible Vegetables!
So an epic battle ensues, and I'm blown out of my ass to see that LarryBoy isn't successful in apprehending the suspects.
-What the hell?! LarryBoy can't stop a bunch of penguins from stealing a gun?! Movie, please tell me that you won't downplay LarryBoy anymore, because this was the hero that took down a Milk Money Bandit in milliseconds in Rumor Weed, and took down a motorcycle duo in Bad Apple. And let me tell you: if LarryBoy keeps getting downplayed, then that's gonna bite this movie in the ass later on.
Anyway, LarryBoy calls for back-up, and Alfred rides over to a special button with his... computer chair?
-I guess Alfred wanted to take his sitting-in-his-computer-chair-the-entire-movie to new heights... (sarcasm) Great call, movie...
Anyways, the rest of the League finally shows up and take on the penguins, while Junior introduces Laura to them...
-Hi, how does Junior know about the other heroes? Did he peek at the movie's script, or did he just pull knowledge out of his ass?
-And while we're at it, let's do a checklist of clichéd superheroes:

1. a laid-back hero (and who looks like a mix between Superman and Wonder Woman) CHECK

2. a fashionista (and named after a fashion magazine) CHECK

3. the leading hero figure (and an obvious Iron Man parody) CHECK
So you'd think that justice has been served... NOPE! The penguins regain the Fear Dar and try to escape by sliding down a hill, with our heroes in pursuit. Junior and Laura decide to follow the chaos. On the way down, the penguins make a switcheroo with the Fear Dar.
-Okay, we must be missing a scene here. How were the penguins able to pull that off? We never saw them plan this with their boss or anything. They just randomly throw that part of the plot into the mix.
Then the penguins start attacking the heroes with a closed gate and snowballs. Alfred rides his LarryCopter to the chaos.

-A helicopter? That's new.
Vogue and Thingamabob get snow in their eyes and are about to crash into the closed gate, but Junior sees this and throws a snowball at the gate to open it, just in time for the heroes to ride by without crashing.
-Is it also fair to point out that snowballs are gonna be the weapon of choice in this movie?
So the penguins are eventually stopped in their tracks by our heroes... and LarryBoy lands head-first in the snow.
-I can see that we're downplaying LarryBoy in this movie. STOP IT!
And it looks like it's jail-time for these jailbirds...
Vogue: "Aren't they adorable when they're surrounded?"
-Yeah, spoken like a true teenage fashionista, Vogue...

Arrest Scene:

So the penguins are marched into the back of a police van. The Fear Dar is secured. And then Junior gets recognition for throwing a snowball to the League's advantage. Uh, no... Alfred recognizes Junior for being brave...
-Tell me if that's weird, because Alfred can be kind and understanding, but... I don't know. We'll have to keep close tabs on him...
Anyway, LarryBoy is asked about Larry from the museum, and...
-Yeah, so basically, it's like every other LarryBoy story (including the Cartoon Adventures): Larry and LarryBoy are the same person; and nobody else knows about his secret identity except for himself and Alfred.
So Laura gets a ride home with Vogue, while Junior stays behind, because...
Alfred: "We'd like to have a little talk."
-Why not have this "talk" with Laura, too? She was the one telling Junior to throw the snowball at the gate so that it would open.

Police Car Ride:
We then cut to Officer Scooter telling some random shit to the jailbirds.
Scooter: "In my day, a penguin was a hard-working law-abiding bird..."
-I can already tell that the penguins are getting bored by this guy's talking. In fact, one of the penguins is banging his head against the wall, as if to say: Shut the fuck up, old man! Just take us to jail already, or let us out of this bucket of bolts!
So, the penguins manage to bust out of the van by creating a hole in the wall.
Scooter: "Am I right?"
-OMG, are you still talking? The penguins just escaped from your custody!

Outside:
The penguin return to the place where they did the Fear Dar.
-Like I said before, this movie goes that route: The real Fear Dar is conveniently hidden in a hiding spot, while our heroes have the decoy. I gotta that that was smart, except for the fact that this was never foreshadowed in the beginning.

LarryCave:

So our heroes invite Junior to the LarryCave to have hot chocolate and cookies.

-I guess this was meant to be a Christmas movie or something. I mean, look at the premise:
There's snow everywhere...

the citizens are in winter attire...

and then we have people enjoying cups of hot chocolate and cookies...

I guess this movie tried to revolve around Christmas time, when in actuality, it's not.
Anyways, the League asks Junior to join them as a junior member.
Thingamabob: "We gotta start raising young heroes that would take our place someday..."
-Wait, what? Heroes to take y'all's place someday? Y'all can't do that to LarryBoy! Y'all will leave that cucumber hero alone! LarryBoy is a Veggietales treasure!
S-Cape: "Our knees can't hold out forever."
-Now y'all are acting and sounding like old people? (pause) Did I get the right DVD?! What the hell's going on here?!
So Junior decides to join the League, but on one condition...
Junior: "Would I get my own supersuit?"
Alfred: "But of course!"
-Now look what you did, Vogue (the heroine in this movie, not the magazine)... You're trying to make fashion the highlight of the movie...

Villains' Lair:
So the penguin minions return to their hide-out, which is an abandoned grocery store (I guess)... and we see our villain in all his convincing... villainy. His name is Dr. Flurry; and wouldn't you know it, he looks as if Jimmy Gourd trying on Ursula's white hair (The Little Mermaid).

And the performance of this crazy white-haired mad scientist...
Dr. Flurry: "Inny, Mini, Michael! (gasp) Just vat I vanted!"
-Okay, is this guy French or German or... what accent is that? Or is it Swedish?
-Plus, one penguin's name is Michael? I guess the movie was running low on cutesy names...
-According to Wikipedia, Dr. Flurry is played by Mark Steele, who co-wrote this movie with Mike Nawrocki, the guy that voices LarryBoy. All I can about that, is that that's a weird partnership, whether hero and villain roles formulate the story for a movie...
Anyway, it's revealed that Dr. Flurry is afraid of the League of Incredible Vegetables, because of a crime that he committed, of which he's on the run for.
Dr. Flurry: "The League of Incredible Vegetables?! No, no! They have arrived too soon!"
-Geez, are you still talking?
And what was his crime that makes him so afraid of the authorities? Stealing ice cream!
Dr. Flurry: "'Grand Theft Gelato.'"
-(sarcasm) Gee, no wonder there's a shortage on ice cream... I mean, the world can't function without ice cream!
Then Dr. Flurry explains that with the Fear Dar, he can take over Bumblyburg by "literally" freezing people in their fears. Oh no... I tell a lie. He sings about planning to "literally" freeze people in their fears.

-You know how with Dr. Blowhole, you can't help but fall in love with his angelic singing instrument? Well, with Dr. Flurry... you might as well have Mr. Nezzer pop the hell out of nowhere and sing the controversial version of "The Bunny Song."
-Plus, is it fair to say that there's another musical number on the way? But don't you worry! The second song in this movie is far different... the second musical number is much more annoying than this one. I mean, you'll be begging to hear Dr. Flurry to sing that "Freeze, freeze, freeze" lyric again...
Anyway, so the mad scientist finally gets going on his... secret egg-shaped database...

LarryCave Scene 2:
Junior tries to interact with the heroes, until they get a call from Officer Scooter saying that the Fear Dar that they have was just a decoy... and that the real Fear Dar is in the wrong hands.
-Yeah, in answer to your question, Scooter, about why the penguins don't plan on abiding to the law like normal citizens... They're animals! And, in a bizarre twist, they work for the bad guy, obviously, with their ninja suits and shit!

Silly Songs with LarryBoy: "Supper Hero":

The movie then cuts to a short break. I'm not sure if making fun of a silly song seems fair for this review, but I'm doing it anyway.
The segment starts with the heroes at dinner time, and I'm blown out of my mind to see that everyone is being served normal food... except for LarryBoy, who's being served Brussels sprouts and sauerkraut.
-WTF! This movie can't even serve LarryBoy a decent meal! While everyone else has mouthwatering delights, Larry gets served... whatever the hell those things are!
Anyway, LarryBoy doesn't want to eat what's being served to him. But then a superhero... or Supper Hero, if you will... comes in and takes the dishes from him, eating the foods that LarryBoy doesn't like.
This seems great, until Supper Hero goes berserk and eats everyone else's food, and... OMG! The guy even eats their dessert!

-Wow, what a jerk.
And then Supper Hero asks to join the League, in which everyone wisely say "No."
-Yeah, if I saw Jimmy Gourd in a ridiculous superhero costume, a pot on his head, and him eating everything in sight... I wouldn't let him join the League either.

Back at the Museum:
LarryBoy and Thingamabob investigate the crime scene and spot a piece of paper from the penguin bandits. It turns out to be a shopping list from a grocery store.
-But that's nothing: the more exciting stuff happens when:
1. We cut back to Alfred riding his chair to a testing room
2. Junior trying out supersuits, while performing needless slap-stick...
3. Junior finally choosing to be in a suit that let's him bounce off the walls.
4. Alfred warning Junior that the suit hasn't been waterproofed yet...

-Really, guys? Y'all trying to build up this kid? Junior isn't superhero material! Junior should've left this movie scenes ago!
Then the LarryCave gets a call from Thingamabob saying that...
Thingamabob: "Downtown Bumblyburg is under attack!"
-I was gonna say that, but we already get the idea.
LarryBoy: "We'll meet you there! (gag) Shouldn't have had those nachos..."
-Like I said before, this movie couldn't give LarryBoy at least one decent meal. Doesn't this movie have any shame?

Downtown:
So the giant egg-looking ship arrives in Bumblyburg, striking fear into the citizens, which fuels the Fear Dar. And, in a bizarre twist, the Fear Dar reveals that Officer Scooter's biggest fear is... the dark!
-Wow, was the character developer of this movie asleep that day? That's like the dumbest fear for an adult, especially for a cop!
So the League finally arrives and confronts...

Dr. Flurry: "Welcome, League of Incredible Vegetables! It is I... Dr. Flurry!"
-I thought your name was already established in this movie...
Dr. Flurry: "I'm about to freeze all of Bumblyburg with fear. Unless, of course, you find a way to stop me..."
-That was lame. I like Dr. Blowhole's speech way better:

Dr. Blowhole: "Without you peng-you-ins around to foil my plans, I will unleash..." (pressing a button)
Computer voice: "CHROME CLAW."
Dr. Blowhole: "...on an unsuspecting world!"
Yeah, why doesn't Dr. Blowhole take over the villain role? (sarcasm) Well, I guess he wouldn't be as funny as Dr. Flurry's forced-French-or-German accent and his ridiculous fear of getting caught by authorities!
So the villain starts attacking, and our heroes race into action.

-Now, for the most part, this is a really good action scene. It's engaging, and it'll have people on the edge of their seats.
But hey! What can offset such an engaging scene with people fleeing in fear, heroes being shown their fears left and right, and heroes saving each other left and right? Guess what route this movie goes next...
That's right! It turns out that LarryBoy's biggest fear is popping balloons.

-So, we can definitely confirm that the movie's character developer was either asleep or away from work that day. OMG! This movie couldn't even give LarryBoy a decent fear, could they?! Balloons, really?! What's next, is Pennywise the Clown gonna show up out of nowhere and brag about how things float?!
So LarryBoy manages to escape his "fear." Then Junior finds it in his heart to join the action, despite Alfred's objections.

-Believe me; that is one reckless kid.
And his reckless shows when (get a load of this) Junior steps into a puddle of water, and his suit doesn't work anymore.

-That is a stupid kid who should never have been in this movie to begin with...

And, to make matters worse, the Fear Dar reveals that Junior is afraid of...

Computer Voice: "... pretty much everything."

-Another reason why this kid is stupid for jumping into action...

Now this next part will totally blow you away. Get close to the TV screen and see what's gonna happen next...

LarryBoy rushes to Junior's aid, and... you're not gonna believe this. Are you ready? Are you sure? You can back out right out. Okay, listen: 

LARRYBOY GETS HIT BY THE FEAR DAR, AND DR. FLURRY CAPTURES HIM IN FRONT OF EVERYONE!!!!

-Yep, this movie goes that route. They actually make LarryBoy the victim. Okay, since when did LarryBoy need saving?! What hack-writers come up with this shit?! Oh yeah, Mike Nawrocki and Mark Steele. Well, you can't blame Nawrocki for this, because Mark Steele (the guy that plays Dr. Flurry) co-wrote this, and Nawrocki was a sucker to buy into Steele's crap.

LarryCave Scene 3:

So the League decides to regroup to come up with a way to save LarryBoy.

-Gee, since LarryBoy isn't here, guess who takes the spotlight!

That's right! It's the non-superhero-worthy-pipsqueak himself! Fuckin' spaz! This movie couldn't keep from building this kid up! 

So, as you can imagine, Junior feels that being a superhero isn't what it's cracked up to be...

-Hey! Now's your chance, movie! Give the rest of the movie to LarryBoy! To hell with this kid! Let him go!

But Alfred steps in and becomes the "voice of reason."

-Dude, the kid doesn't need a talk-to. His mind is made up. He's scared of everything.

So Alfred tells Junior that they have to put their trust in God whenever they feel afraid. Fair enough.

-Gee, I feel another song coming up...

Alfred: (singing) "Trust in God."

Junior: "Not in my super suit?"

Alfred: "Nope."

Him and Junior: (singing in unison) "Trust in God..."

-By now, you'll be begging to hear Dr. Flurry's song again. Why? Because this song has all the cliches:

1. a person singing while wearing a top hat and carrying a cane

2. a duet with an unlikable character (pick one)

3. a silly-as-hell exit at the end

-Telling by this song, we must have slipped into another movie.

-This song seems pointless, you know why? Because you can say it in 5 words: "TRUST IN GOD OR QUIT!" How hard is it to say that? Well, it's obvious that part of this movie was written by monkeys...

Outside Old Grocery Store:

The League come across the old grocery store where they think Dr. Flurry is hiding with LarryBoy. S-Cape suggests a costume idea for Vogue, but...

Vogue: "I can't. It's after Labor Day."

-Who cares?! Y'all are here to save LarryBoy, not to talk about fashion! Get over yourself, Vogue!

But their super suits don't do much, as Dr. Flurry's egg ship suddenly transforms into a giant penguin bot...

-Okay, no. No. You can't get away with that, Flurry. At least Dr. Blowhole had an excuse in why his submarine base and attack pod looked like beach ball (because duh, he's a dolphin); but you... how did you come up with a penguin for your database ship?! Did one of your penguin minions beg you to build a giant version of them in place of a paycheck?

Later on...:

So the League gets attacked, and they too get captured...

-Wait, what?! You gotta be kidding me, movie! A whole league of heroes captured by one crazy old fart in a lab coat... who has a penguin fetish?! The whole league captured?!

Junior: "He's frozen almost the entire League. There's one more!"

-Oh, right. I forgot. This movie decided to make Junior the star... 

So Junior and Alfred come up with a way to save the League and apprehend Dr. Flurry. Junior decides to distract the penguin ship, while Alfred sneaks on board to free our heroes. 

But two things happen that'll fire most people's asses up...

1. Junior gets his suit wet... AGAIN, and can't operate it.

2. Alfred turns the heating up, only to get caught and have his ass handed to him by three penguins...

-Again, three against one?

-Well, out of those two dumb twists, Alfred's has to be the dumbest.

LarryBoy: "Alfred?"

Alfred: "Not now, LarryBoy. Your plan is foiled, Dr. Flurry!"

Thingamabob: "Alfred."

Alfred: "Because it takes more than a little ice to stop the League!"

League: "ALFRED!"

-Just turn around and look who's talking to you, you moron!

So, Junior, now in deep shit, figures out how to stop Dr. Flurry. He decides to not be afraid, which weakens the Fear Dar's power. And, as mentioned earlier, a snowball is the weapon of choice in this movie, as Junior throws one at the giant penguin, destroying the Fear Dar. 

Inside the penguin ship, the other heroes manage to break free from their icy prisons and escape before the ship falls to the ground... but not without taking the penguins with them.

-So, I guess Dr. Flurry is gonna pay the ultimate price for all the crimes he has done...

Wait... LarryBoy saves him?! Well, I can totally see why LarryBoy wouldn't let the villain die... In fact, I would even write an editorial about this scene.

Anyway, so the penguin ship is defeated, as well as Dr. Flurry, who graciously thanks LarryBoy for saving him and for getting rid of his fear of superheroes out to get him.

And then, LarryBoy says the most epic line in this movie that blows off all superhero zingers:

Dr. Flurry: "Can we hang out some now?"

LarryBoy: "Uh... you're kinda going to jail."

-Whoa! Dr. Flurry so got pwned! That's destined to become a classic superhero saying. I mean, Batman himself couldn't come up with anything better than that!

Initiation scene:

So Junior finally becomes an official member of the League.

-That may seem innocent and stuff, until you realize: WHERE THE FUCK IS LARRYBOY'S RECOGNITION FOR NOT LETTING THE VILLAIN DIE IN HIS OWN CRIMINAL BEHAVIOR?!

And then the movie ends with the League riding off into the distance to go save the day elsewhere.

-Hey! WTF! Don't get a close-up on Junior! He never should've been the lead hero to begin with!

And that was The League of Incredible Vegetables. Now, I have some good news and bad news. Which do you want to hear first? Okay, the bad news is... this movie didn't seem to be interested in LarryBoy. If it was, then it wasn't enough.

I don't know; I expected to see LarryBoy as the main hero of this story; but instead, this movie paid most of its attention to Junior- a kid who's literally done nothing the entire franchise. I mean, Junior is not superhero material. Who's bright idea was that?! How are we supposed to be invested by Junior as a superhero? Seriously?! After this?!:

Junior: (singing) "It's Laura's fault. She broke the plate. It's true. And that's the tale I have to tell to you."

... and this?!

Junior: "We think that Mr. Alfred..."

Rumor Weed: "Yeah?"

Junior: "... is a robot!"

Another problem I had with this movie is that it deprived LarryBoy of his own talent. It's sad to see such a memorable character be downplayed like this. Yeah, when you watch this movie all the way through, you get the idea that LarryBoy was downplayed. And hell, they even throw in some bullshit twist when LarryBoy gets captured by the bad guy! That never should've happened! Know why? Because that was committing the biggest crime against LarryBoy fans: downplaying LarryBoy to the point where he falls victim to the movie's villain. And, just a testament of how fuckin' wrong this movie was to downplay LarryBoy: even when LarryBoy goes out of his way to save the villain from dying, this movie still makes it a point to glorify Junior some more and make him the star!
Okay, that was my rant on this movie. Now, the good news is, most of this movie was pretty awesome. Well, to be fair, of all the bad LarryBoy movies, this one was the least bad. Sure, some of the stuff may seem corny and cliched, but they seem to work to the movie's advantage. And sure, this movie may have disappointing payoffs, but for what it is, it's not so bad.
But what made this movie incredible are the action scene- this movie was action-packed. Plus, the animation was great: the colors, the shadows, and the lighting made the animation hardcore. This was an impressive achievement when comparing this movie to the other LarryBoy movies.
But to be honest, I guess this movie was for the Avengers fans or for the Veggietales fan; so, LarryBoy fans, be aware that this movie may or may not be what you've expected it to be. Yeah, when you watch it all the way through, you'll be surprised and/or shocked about LarryBoy's role in this movie.

But you know, what I can't get over is that there's some false advertising to this movie. I mean, the movie is entitled The League of Incredible Vegetables- so if that's the case, then this was who we were supposed to see as the movie's lead hero:

Then that would've made this movie look and feel incredible!
And plus, the villain wasn't so bad ass. May I suggest another villain like...

That crossover would've made the movie a bigger hit.
