A Christmas Classic and yearly tradition
This movie is awesome ... i haven't seen it in a few years but i always look forward to seeing it when it comes on. The characters are great and the story is very entertaining.
Baby new year is lost and time is running out to find him, the only one that can save the day is Rudolph. Baby new year runs away because he has giant ears and everyone makes fun of him except Rudolph cause he know's what it's like to made fun of for his red nose ... A classic moment is when Aeon the Terrible, big-beaked monster bird, captures baby new year and he almost dies laughing when the baby new year takes off his hat and reveals his giant ears.
There's some other great characters too, i remember an knight that helps Rudolph and an eskimo, a giant whale, the abominal snow man, and of course old man last year who is about to croak which is why they have to get baby new year back. It's some good stuff for the whole family.
