Oh, it's so nice to finally do something together as a family.
Wait a minute.
We pitched our tent at the front of the line.
Why are we all the way back here?
Someone must've moved us back in the night
to get themselves a better position.
You snooze, you lose, guys.
Literally.
Why did you put us back in the line at all?
Now we're stuck next to you all day.
Well, I lost my place in line
while I was moving your tent, so...
It's awkward now, isn't it?
- Kind of. - Sorry.
I'll go.
Is this the line for the first screening of "Stellar Odyssey"?
Please, Colin, use the full title.
"Stellar Odyssey... colon... The Force Rehashed."
Sorry, boys, we camped out all night
and we're at the back of the line.
Since when did sci-fi become
so popular with normal people?
What next, mainstream culture making films
and hit TV shows out of superheroes and dragons
and... Oh, wait.
Ha! Can you imagine the embarrassment
not getting into the first screening?
What's that for?
Uh, this rope means you won't get into the first screening.
Hmm.
I think we will get into the first screening.
Uh, no, you won't.
Yes, we will.
No. No, you won't.
His powers are too strong.
Why do you all care so much about a movie where
a guy hangs out with a whistling trash can,
hates his robot dad, and kisses his sister?
There's a second screening in half an hour anyway.
Mom, the second anything is pointless.
No one remembers the second guy to invent the telephone.
That's because he didn't invent it.
All right, then no one remembers
the second guy to walk on the moon.
Buzz Aldrin. Now you're just making up names.
If we see it before anybody else,
think of all the power we'll have at school.
The power to spoil or not to spoil.
Soon they'll be begging to find out
which of their dumb fan theories was correct.
And that's why you don't have any friends.
Aww.
Those films were so important to me.
The first one changed my life forever.
Oh, honey. Because it was our first date?
Yeah, sure.
I remember it like it was yesterday?
Why don't you flash back to it now, then?
All right.
Was I close?
I just hope Chunky's in it.
He's so good at providing the whimsical comic relief
that no one asked for.
Oopsa whoopsa!
We's a-outta oxygens!
Gosh darn paramedic!
I go into respiratory arrest for one minute
and he steals my place in the line!
Well, it's a dog-eat-dog world.
Who eats what? Was that a spoiler?
- A dog eats a dog? - Way to spoil the whole plot!
- Called it! - Come on, Siciliana.
Let's go see a movie where a dog eats normal things.
Hmm. That gives me an idea.
You gonna share it with us or what?
Oh, yeah.
Dude, I can't wait to see this movie.
I know, it's so exciting! Anything could happen.
Yeah, anything.
As long as they keep it exactly the same as it was
in the first three movies and nothing changes at all.
I want surprises, but, you know, only the ones I expect.
The first review's online!
What up, Elmore Streamers?
It's DollyBoy1923, a.k.a. Pixel Donkey.
I just got back from seeing
"Stellar Odyssey: The Force Rehashed."
No spoilers, but it's so refreshing
to see less CGI space battles and more sock puppets.
And what a brave decision it was
to re-cast all the main characters as female,
including the robots.
Oh! I can't believe it!
They've ruined the whole franchise!
Dude, that was my phone.
You could've just stopped the video.
559, 560.
Congratulations, Wattersons, you're in.
Oh, this is great!
We're getting into the first screening.
Where are we sitting?
Well, here's the seating plan.
This is the screen, and you are...
There.
What are those in front of our seats?
Columns. They're not holding anything up,
but this way we can charge more for seats that
don't have columns in front of them.
Uh, what row are we in?
Well, we ran out of letters for the rows,
so we had to start making up our own alphabet.
You'll be sitting in row Cleft.
I hate Cleft!
That was my grade average at school.
We may as well be at home watching the holiday special.
How know you of this?
Only a true fan would watch that special.
I think you'll find I'm the number-one fan.
I'll have you know that I'm the president
of the "Stellar Odyssey" fan club. Elmore chapter.
Really? I thought you'd be into, like, tea and stuff.
What? That's it!
There is but one way to settle this.
A nerd-off.
Can we take your place in the line if our dad wins?
More than that. If I lose, the whole of
the "Stellar Odyssey" fan club... Elmore chapter...
Will go to the back of the line in disgrace.
- I wanted to see the movie! - Silence!
A nerd-off?
We, too, challenge you in this mighty test of nerddom.
Please, you weren't even born
when the original trilogy came out.
You have no idea how hard it was for us fans before the Internet.
That's right. You've got chatting rooms,
webalogs, sociable medias.
Yeah. Now even the most facially challenged nerd
can find love online instead of
spending their life alone like I do.
Come, Felix.
Society may laugh at us, but we're used to it.
We're nerds.
Okay, whoever's done the saddest,
most nerdiest thing is the victor.
Biggest loser wins, and commence.
I can't count to 10,
but I'm fluent in android binary!
I'm not actually pink.
I dyed my whole body to match the coolest color laser sword!
I built a full-scale replica
of the Billennium Buzzard out of my own hair!
I wore a gold bikini under my suit on my wedding day!
I changed my middle name to Bardadecca!
Aah!
I only adopted Darwin so I could say I had two sons!
Nice try,
but I forced my only school friend
to call me Imperial Highness for 30 years.
Noooo!
Wait!
Friend? You had a friend?
No, no, no! Wait! We're not even that close!
We have a winning loser!
Noooooo!
Nice one, Martin.
Awesome! We're gonna get front-row seats!
I don't think so.
I got the whole front row!
I've been camping here since before
they announced they were making a movie!
I missed my wife and kid's birthdays,
a jury summons, an emergency dental appointment.
Nothing is gonna stop me from seeing this movie!
Nothing! You think I'm not serious?
Would a guy who wasn't serious do this?
Is this serious enough for you?
Aah!
Well, we're at the front of the line.
Yay!
Uh, guys, what street is this?
- Elmore Boulevard. - Why?
Well, I just got a reminder saying that
our tickets are for the cinema on Elmore Street.
That's the other side of town!
What? The screening is on the other side of town?
We've only got 10 minutes to get there!
- What? - What are we gonna do?
How are we gonna get there on time?
We make the jump to light speed.
Piece of junk!
Hey, this piece of junk did the school run in 12 minutes.
It only takes the bus five minutes.
I stopped at the drive-through to get their breakfasts.
I know. Let's use the mall speeders.
Aah!
Quick! Let's cut through here!
Look, the exit!
I have you now.
I'll take these myself. Cover me.
Pew! Pew! Pew! Pew! Pew! Pew! Pew!
I've got a bad feeling about this.
Dad, do something!
Mystical Voice: Use the sauce, Richard.
Use the sauce.
I got it!
- Huh? - No, use the forks.
Look.
Aah!
I'm gonna need a shortcut.
Uh, maybe I'll cut through here instead.
Uh, excuse me,
what's the quickest way to Elmore Street, please?
Mom, did you get the VIP seats?
Of course not. It's a reboot.
Chances are we'll be out of the theater in 10 minutes.
I find your lack of faith disturbing.
Somebody needs to stop Hector.
He's gonna get there before us in two more steps.
Leave it to me.
Oh, no!
We've only got a few minutes to get there,
and now we're gonna be at the back of the line again!
Honey, we're slowing them down.
Or more accurately, you're slowing them down.
Huh?
Remember when Ben Kenoli sacrificed himself
at the end of the first movie?
You do care about them.
You've made me watch them every year since we got married.
You even put them on when I was giving birth to Anais.
But they're good movies.
I know, but it's their franchise now.
Mm.
What are they doing?
Excuse me.
Is this the line for "Stellar Odyssey"?
Yes!
Look, over there! There's the line!
They're forming a decoy line. Don't look.
I love you.
I know.
Come on, we got to go.
Can we at least go to the second screening?
Yeah.
Yes! We're here! Elmore Street!
What the?
It's a trap!
No, it's more of a con.
There isn't a movie theater on Elmore Street.
Yeah, and if Mom booked the tickets,
why did Gumball get the reminder?
And who sent it?
Hacking the theater's database
was easier than bull's-eyeing a swamp rat from a T-15.
To the real nerds everywhere, space is for the geeks!
Ahh. Surely nothing can ruin this for us now, Felix.
Oopsa whoopsa, it's me, Chunky!
Me-sa been blasted in the face!
