The Adventures of Elmo in Grouchland vs. Follow that Bird


Which one is better? I say Follow that Bird is better.

Oh, for sure, "Follow that Bird". I couldn't watch this movie when I was little because the whole time I kept asking (crying) to my Dad, "When's Elmo getting his blanket back?!" (I had a similar blanket, that's why.) On the other hand, "Follow That Bird" made up a good portion of my childhood, with good songs, a good plot, and most of the Sesame Street characters. So yes, "Follow That Bird" wins, hands down.

Wow... I can't believe I just argued over two Sesame Street themed movies. I have no life.

I have nothing witty to say here.

Follow that Bird is way better! It's a fantastic movie.

FTB is the Gone With the Wind of Children's movies.

The images and puppet work in "Elmo" are way more advanced and visually it's better. But I feel that the story is better in FTB, and the songs are better too. That Kenny Rogers song is still in my head after all these years. Elmo - not a song to hum.

Elmo is only in one scene of 'Follow that Bird', and doesn't have any dialogue.

Therefore, it is clearly the superior film.
