Those ‘FACT’ pifs before movies used to scare the hell out of me. What’s worse, it even had an older sibling of sorts in the ‘Carlton’ screen advertising branding iron.😂 My sister and I loved the show as kids, I can still remember being literally red with envy as she found a ‘Blossom plush’ in our local Woolworths. The comic book was awesome too.

The Carlton Screen Advertising ident is what it always reminded me of - both creeped me out at the time. I guess loud, threatening branding irons were just in fashion for advertising back then. 😆

This is one of my favorite animated films Personally the fact that this was an origin story and the daek tone didnt really bother me since the execution is what helps this film Man cartoon network made some banger films Honestly i can see this working as a triple feature with Dexter's lab ego trip and my life as a teenage robot escape from cluster prime

The movie contrasts very much from the show, but I don't necessarily see that as a bad thing. Did they overdo it? Maybe, but I'd argue the spirit of the show is still there. It's still a lot of fun and genuinely cute in places. Just look at the girls when they're playing tag at Pokey Oaks before everything unfolds. That is genuinely adorable... So I say, good movie, I give it points for trying something different, even if it occasionally goes a bit overboard.

In my opinion, it's not too dark. It feels like a normal episode but longer. There have been darker episodes like Speed Demon.

This movie has aged so well and this came out back in 2002. Way better quality and animation that most of the crap we get nowadays. That’s kind of sad.

Oh, and during the destroyed school scene while it's under reconstruction, I couldn't go through it for one minute 'cause it scared the pants off of me, especially by how all of the students glared at the girls so fiercely like that. The animators of the movie did a very good job animating the rage in the eyes of the students which is very scary, and who is able to have school under reconstruction anyway? It's downright ridiculous and very dangerous, and nobody couldn't focus on their schoolwork at all due to the loud sound of the construction work and couldn't hear themselves think anyway.

And I remember only seeing the PPG Movie once during my childhood, and it's one of the most highly underrated movies ever for Warner Bros.

Well I never heard of the V-Birds until now, To me this is the Best Cartoon Network Movie of all Time, Second being the Regular Show Movie, it’s the Perfect Balance Between Action, Mature Themes, Comedy, and Over the Top Story Telling which is how the Powerpuff Girls show be portrayed, I get the Creator wanted to do Less Action and More a Silly Slice of Life but I don’t think it would have worked, if anything it would’ve ruined the Franchise More if they took that Direction I mean just look at the 2016 Reboot as it did that and Failed and I’m glad CW never got their hands on them, as a Powerpuff Girls Fan I love this Unique Origin Story as it shows how Mojo Jojo and the Girls Created Each Other as this battle between Siblings that are Opposites and it shows that the Girls have Flaws which makes them Relatable and shows how the became the Heroes they were made to be, 10 out of 10, this is one of my All Time Favorite Movies that I would rewatch as much as I can but it also shows be one of the Best Superhero Movies that has Aged like Fine Wine and it becomes even better as Each Year Passes.

11:47 Too bad the SWAT Kats weren't alongside the Looney Tunes, H&B characters and CN originals (at the time) in those theater seats.

I would say yes, the movie was too dark and it's very depressing as well. Also, even after all the girls has been through during the movie, they didn't even decide to accept responsibility for their own actions and attempted to blame each other for how things turned out rather than admit their actions, and I already know that I am so willing to admit my own actions. So, all of the girls are responsible for how things have turned out, and that's 'cause of their own recklessness with their powers and have no control over them at first, especially that they were far too young. Oh, and by the way, they shouldn't attempt to blame each other and at least should've reflect on their actions.

I remember the VBirds. And Crusha. Edit: I don't mind the movie being darker, but they went too far in trying to appeal to the boys and it upset the balance. PPG was made for everyone, and it did appeal to everyone.
