Movie

A movie entitled Rolie Polie Olie: The Great Defender f Fun was released on 13 August 2002. The movie is about an evil space pirate named Gloomius Maximus who is determined to not let anyone have fun, since he can't fun. Unfortunately for Rolie Polie Olie, an invitation to Zowie Polie's third birthday party accidentally finds its way to Gloomius's ship. Gloomius never had a birthday party himself, so he sets out to make Zowie's as miserable as possible. He tries a glum ray, kidnapping Zowie and Pappy, and ultimately towing the entire Polie Planet to the Gloomy Galaxy. Between Rolie Polie Olie's super silly ray and some help from Saturday morning hero Space Boy the day is saved for silliness.
