King Tweety on DVD June 14th

 Warner Bros. Home Entertainment provided me with a free copy of the DVD I reviewed in this Blog Post. The opinions I share are my own.

Animation’s cutest “widdle” canary, Tweety, learns he’s a royal descendant and the next in line to the throne in King Tweety a brand-new, full-length animated family film, set for release on Digital and DVD on June 14, 2022 by Warner Bros. Home Entertainment.  Produced by Warner Bros. Animation, King Tweety finds Tweety, Sylvester and Granny jet-setting to the Canary Islands where Tweety is inadvertently crowned king by the island locals. It’s a hilarious, fun-packed adventure featuring vibrant animation and music that will make you want to shake your tailfeathers!

Tweety’s large and in charge as he takes the throne in this zany new, full-length movie. When the queen of an island paradise disappears, Tweety unexpectedly becomes next in line for the crown. His Little Highness’ entourage includes motorbike daredevil Granny and sly Sylvester, whose allegiance is tested when he uncovers a sinister plot to eliminate Tweety for good! Feathers and fur will fly in this hilarious story that proves royalty – and loyalty – can come in many shapes and sizes.

My Thoughts

Tweety the yellow canary is celebrating his eightieth birthday by being crowned kids. Lots of cartoon characters have gone and gone, but Tweety and his feline friendamy Sylvester are cartoons that go all the way back to my grandparents generation. I used to watch them sitting on my grandfather's lap, and now I cuddled with my own children as we watched the latest evolution of these beloved characters. In King Tweetey, our feathered friend learns he's next in line to be King of Canary Island. Granny and Sylvester  join him on a zany adventure and help keep him safe when rivals for the throne try to remove him from power.

King Tweety is a really cute feature film and a great way to celebrate the birthday of his icon. If you'd like to grab a copy of this reinvented classic for yourself, you can grab a copy of King Tweety on Amazon or in stores nationwide.
