Call me childish, but I can't seem to get enough of animated films. We watched Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa and it's crack-a-lackin' hilarious. I was laughing so hard, I had coughing fits. That King Julien is so outrageous, especially his accent. That guy must be gay to be going around with that grass skirt. (I found out just now that Sacha Baron Cohen voiced King Julien.) And those penguins are so seriously funny. At one point, the Skipper was looking at the plane blueprints and he asks Kowalski if it will fly. Kowalski answered in the affirmative, and proceeds to fold the blueprint into a paper plane and throws it. Later on, when the penguins were trying to crash-land the crippled plane, Skipper says, "Gently now, you just wanna kiss the ground, just a little peck, a smooch like you're kissing your sister." LOL! Then there's this new guy on the block - a hippo called Moto Moto (a name so nice you have to say it twice). He's Gloria's new love interest and he likes his girls "big, chunky, round, and plumpy."
In this sequel, the gang is on its way back to New York, but their newly-restored plane crashes in Africa. Alex reunites with his long-lost Mom and Dad. Gloria starts flirting with alpha hippo Moto Moto, much to the dismay of Melman, who was promoted to the position of witch doctor. Alex fails his coming-of-age challenge, and his family is banished from the tribe. Wannabe Makunga takes over the animal village. One day, the water pool dries up because some crazy New Yorkers started their own mini civilization and built a dam. King Julien cooks up this idea of offering a human, I mean animal sacrifice to the volcano to get their water supply back. Melman volunteers because he noticed this spot, and he's sure he's going to die. Just as he's about to jump, the penguins crashs through the dam using the newly-repaired plane, bringing water back to the village. The shark who has been chasing Mort apparently followed him up the volcano and fell into the volcano, thus becoming the sacrifice.
