YouTube Poop: The Movie

YouTube Poop: The Movie is a 2009 German-American adult animated musical comedy film based on YouTube Poop videos, produced and directed by Michael Schoemann, and released by Paramount Pictures and Columbia Pictures. The film is a YouTube Poop of the 1992 German animated film, The Magic Voyage (also known in German as Die Abenteuer von Pico & Columbus, translated to The Adventures of Pico and Columbus). In theaters, a YouTube Poop short titled The Sky Had A Weegee! was shown prior to the film, which later got uploaded to YouTube on November 11, 2009. 
The film was dedicated to Dom DeLuise, who died during production. It was released on July 24, 2009 to mixed reviews and grossed $4.4 million. 
== Plot ==
The year is 1492. Many people believed that the world was flat, and that ships would fall off the edge of the earth and float off into space. However, an Italian navigator named Christopher Columbus had a revolutionary idea — he thought that the world was round because a small woodworm named Pico convinced Columbus that the world is really round by eating up the edges of his square globe, making it look round. Finally realizing that the world is round, Columbus decides to take his discovery to King Ferdinand and his wife Queen Isabella. Pico joins him, along with the YouTube Poop gang (with a new YTP recruit, Top Cat), and the crew instantly become friends.
Columbus explains his voyage that will prove his newly discovered theory to Isabella, and she decides to finance Columbus' voyage to prove that the world is round. The King agrees to do this as well, but he tells Columbus that if he does not return with gold, he will be executed. As the three have a feast that night, Pico, Fat Mario, Mama Luigi, and Top Cat decide to leave them and snoop around the castle. Pico climbs a large tower and hops across from the window onto a chandelier, where he meets Marilyn, the fairy princess of a faraway land. All was well with her land until the evil Swarm Lord took her away and keeps her prisoner inside the chandelier until she tells him the secret of her powers, which do not work on the forces of evil. Pico and Marilyn try to escape, but the Swarm Lord returns and takes Marilyn away to his lair in the still-undiscovered new world of America. As the Swarm Lord flies away, Pico and the YouTube Poop gang determine to get Marilyn back. The next day, Columbus and most of the YouTube Poop gang are about to set sail on the Santa Maria to discover the new world. Pico rushes to the ship, but is stopped by a trio of rats, who plan to eat him. Pico manages to escape, but the rats follow him, hopefully to get a free ride to the new world. Pico misses Columbus' ship and Impa says to Pico that the Triforce of Wisdom promises that Columbus will safely return in a month. A month passes and not a word is heard. Zelda then sends Link to go after Columbus' ship, but he ends up getting killed by the Swarm Lord. Pico, Zelda, Impa, and Fat Mario then get on board Impa's ship.
Columbus is sad that Pico has not arrived on the ship. That is, until Gwonam shows up and tells Columbus that Pico, Zelda, Impa, and Fat Mario will arrive at the ship in 12 minutes. At first, Columbus doesn't know what to do for 12 minutes until he hears an announcement from a Squeeze Toy Alien. The alien announces that the center section of the ship will play a YouTube Poop titled The King Gets a Car.
5 minutes later, Columbus, Pico, Zelda, Impa, and Fat Mario reunite, and Pico explains that he needs to save Marilyn. Columbus's shipmates overhear their captain talking to Pico, and come to the conclusion that Columbus is crazy. As the ships continue on their voyage, Pico bumps into the rats again. They want to leave the ship on one of the lifeboats, because they overheard that the ship is heading to the supposed "edge of the earth". Pico needs them to stay, in case if the shipmates want to plan a mutiny on Columbus, and the lifeboat is his only chance. Pico convinces the rats to stay with his lie that there's giant amounts of cheese at the new world.
As day fades into night, Pico and the YouTube Poop gang overhear that the shipmates plan to kill Columbus and turn back in order to stay away from the edge of the earth. Pico tells this to Columbus, and Columbus is worried. However, he distracts his crew by singing a song to them about life on the sea and other leaders from other time periods, including Ulysses, the Romans and the Vikings. Though he gets carried away with the final lyrics to the song that insults the crew (I heard a tale of travelers who feared they would reach the edge / But long before, a serpent came and ate them up instead). The crew is angry at Columbus once more and try to hang him. As he hangs, Columbus sees the new world. Just then, the Swarm Lord flies over the ship and tries to kill everyone on the ship. The ship manages to get away, and lands on The New World by crashing into a dam made by a beaver named Bob. While the crew stays behind, Pico, Columbus, the YouTube Poop gang, Bob, and two of the rats (one of them did not survive the Swarm Lord's wrath) go through the jungles of the island to the Swarm Lord's Aztec temple.
Meanwhile, the Swarm Lord still wants Marilyn's powers, but Pico and his friends come in and save the day. By the power of fast forwarding, Columbus climbs up to the top of the Swarm's giant honeycomb and takes a golden idol while Pico saves Marilyn. Columbus uses the idol to squish the Swarm Lord, and Bob has finished chewing through the honeycomb, which causes it to crumble. The temple starts to crumble as well. The team escapes, but Marilyn drowns in a waterfall and is found lifeless on a floating flower. Once the sun rises, she comes back to life and Pico and Marilyn kiss. Afterwards, they encounter the island's natives, who thank Columbus for destroying the Swarm Lord. The group sail off back to Spain, and Columbus is happy knowing that he discovered the new world and proved that the world is round. The film ends with Columbus imaging what America will be like many years later, showing the city of Manhattan, while the Mario Head talks about the slaughtering of America.
In a post-credit scene, Columbus returns and Queen Isabella gives Columbus her earring for a reward, but King Ferdinand grabs the earring by the power of slow motion.
