A Incredible Masterpiece Movie!!
22 January 2022
Warning: Spoilers
Tabaluga the movie is based on the classic German media franchise of the same name created by German rock musician Peter Maffay. The series has been around since 1983 and is famous in Germany for its appealing stories, music albums, and cartoon series from 1997 to 2004. The brand has helped me a lot in my life. Tabaluga has always been there for me and been a friend despite being fictional. He really means a lot to me. This movie is based on the Tabaluga concept albums partically Tabaluga and Lily as well as the Tabaluga novel and other albums from his universe. In this movie Tabaluga is the last of the dragons growing up in Greenland. Arktos the ruler of iceworld killed both Tabalugas mom and dad and plans to do the same to our hero Tabaluga. Tabaluga is sadly teased and bullied by the other animals because hes a dragon with no fire. His only two real friends are his adoptive dad raven Kolk and the little Ladybug named Bully who is his sidekick. Tabaluga goes to iceworld to find his fire with Bully and ends up meeting Lily a beautiful girl made of ice he falls in love with. The two become a romance but Lily was created by Arktos. She takes him to arktos where he reveals his plans to kill Tabaluga. Tabaluga and his friends escape Arktos but he wont give up. He lies telling the iceworlders Tabaluga captured Lily. I really can relate to Tabalugas feelings at times in this film. Some of it is very comparable to Tabaluga and the magic jadestone from the 1980s by Chris Thompson. Another amazing thing about this movie is its soundtrack the Peter Maffay music is so catchy and many of the songs come directly from the Tabaluga albums. Some favorites that even make me tear up are Nessaja, and I feel like you the romantic song Tabaluga and Lily sing. I wont give away full spoilers but Arktos ends up capturing Tabalugas girlfriend Lily and in the end Tabaluga, Bully the bug, and Limbo the polar bear as well as Lily defeated Arktos for good. Save Greenland and the greenlanders and iceworld citizens become friends. Tabaluga finds his fire. Just like at the end of season 1 of the Tabaluga cartoon. This is my favorite animated movie of all time and always will be. For those who say it's not as good as the cartoon series I agree season 1 is the best Tabaluga, but at the same time this movie does a great job like season 1 of the cartoon making a very believable fun entertaining Tabaluga story. I know many characters are different then the Australian cartoon but that's because it's based on modern album source material as well for example unlike Happy Bunny in the cartoon its Bully the ladybug here. We need more films with messages like this in the world now. Films this good are rare.

Pretty good animated adventure

Warning: Spoilers
As a fan of the original Dragon Hill I really enjoyed this movie. It stays true to the majority of characters Elfy even being the same voice and kevin being in this film. The plot is a evil dragon is trying to make it snow in dragon hill to rule the world. And Elfy and Kevin learn about these dragons who were knights and helped bring justice to Dragon Hill. Elfys dad ends up meeting a old villian who the other baddie helps set free. This guy turns out to be the real bad one and Elfy and the elf robin along with some aliens help give Elfys dad his old sword back to defeat the main villian. In the end the climate finally goes back to normal and Dragon Hill is saved. Overall fun movie and awesome action scences. I reccomend.

Tabaluga (1994–2004)
10/10
A masterpiece in animation!😍🐲

Warning: Spoilers
Tabaluga is a Australian cartoon series produced by Yoram Gross Film Studios from 1997 to 2004. The same company as the Blinky Bill series. It's based on the german rock musical albums created by german rock musician Peter Maffay in 1983. The brand is one of Germanys biggest media franchises. I adore this cartoon and Tabaluga is a large comfort for me and has helped me in my life and been a friend despite being fictional.

The 1st season is incredibly well written. The plot has to do with a evil snowman named Arktos who rules iceworld and his penguin servant he abuses named james want to turn Greenland into more of iceworld and the animals into ice. Tabaluga is the last of the dragons living in greenland the forest home to all animals in the series. He is tasked with the same job his dad Tyrion had to stop arktos evil plans. Tabaluga has the personality of a true friend always remaining positive and hopeful while arktos has his schemes. Tabaluga has a sidekick a little bunny girl named Happy. Some of my favorite episodes include moonstruck the one where Arktos launches Tabaluga into space as a plot to try to kill him. This fails and Tabaluga meets the moon in his dream as well as a message from his dad to beware of Arktos. The last of his kind the episode where Tabaluga is born and learns his destiny to defeat Arktos and meets his dads ghost form, a splendid couple the one where Arktos sends a little rabbit leon to make Tabaluga jelo of Happys friendship with him. Leon later becomes good admitting what Arktos is up to and the 3 stop his plans together this one even references the book by Tabaluga co creator Friends. Other faves include the episode where Tabaluga goes to iceworld to rescue frozen digby from arktos and james and the final season 1 episode where Arktos is properly defeated no spoliers. The show is so fun I can rewatch the same episodes and never get bored. I reccomend the 1st season to everyone who likes fantasy, dragons, or Yoram Gross. It's a masterpiece.
