And welcome to my first segment of "Nitpicking..."
Today, we're going to be looking at the song "Brand New Plan" from the Penguins of Madagascar TV movie, The Return of the Revenge of Dr. Blowhole.
There's no doubt that this was one of the best performances done by Neil Patrick Harris (which most people take for granted by not acknowledging enough that it exists!). Plus, you can tell that this musical number was done really well.
HOWEVER...
Some people may still have questions about the "plan" that was showcased in that song.
-Well, sure, because this movie is what, 45 minutes to an hour(?) I know, the movie should've been longer, I think...
So, sit back and enjoy what's going to be 100% questioning. This is Nitpicking... Dr. Blowhole's "Brand New Plan."
1. Dr. Blowhole says that the birth of the mutant iPod from the Diaboligizer incident was an "...unforeseen complication."
Didn't he kinda know what to expect when he accidentally blasted Julien's iPod with the Diaboligizer?
-Dr. Blowhole knew what the Diaboligizer was capable of. In fact, there was a scene where Dr. Blowhole tests the Diaboligizer on a rabbit.
2. Dr. Blowhole plans to control the mutant iPod by singing.
6. While we're on the subject, what's to stop any of the humans from calling for reinforcements when they're not in range of the mutant iPod's power?
-What about surveillance cameras in the city?
-What if this catches the attention of the media?
7. We've waited until the 2nd half to get to the musical part of the movie. Why not come up with this "plan" sooner?
-The movie could've been a musical!!!
-Was everything else just counterproductive to waiting to take over the world?
8. If the monster can make people sing...
2. Dr. Blowhole plans to control the mutant iPod by singing.
Won't that lead to a sore throat?
3. How would Blowhole turn off this monster when you're not using it?
4. Blowhole's initial plan (at the beginning of the movie... well, in the first half of the movie) was to turn the penguins into monsters...

Is that idea out the window?
5. If he's in control of the mutant iPod, what's to stop the Penguins from still coming after Dr. Blowhole and fighting him?

why doesn't Dr. Blowhole make the monster make people sing to his will?
