''Ed, Edd n Eddy's Big Picture Show'' is a 2009 animated television adventure buddy comedy road film based on the award-winning ''Ed, Edd n Eddy'' animated series. It was produced by a.k.a. Cartoon and premiered on Cartoon Network in the United States, and Teletoon in Canada on November 8, 2009. It serves as the series finale of ''Ed, Edd n Eddy''. The film was directed by series creator Danny Antonucci, who co-wrote the film with Jono Howard, Mike Kubat, Rachel Connor, and Stacy Warnick. The movie centers on Ed, Edd and Eddy's journey to find Eddy's unnamed (and previously unseen) older brother. Antonucci first announced a "90 minute special" in 2006, and its title in 2007. Originally set to air in 2007, its premiere date was then moved to 2008, the year it was completed in, and finally to 2009. The series' sixth season was shortened, as Antonucci and the team at a.k.a. Cartoon wanted to focus on the production of the film. The score is composed by Patric Caird, who also composed the music for the series. The voice cast features all of the series' voice actors, while series voice director Terry Klassen was cast as Eddy's Brother. The film was a critical success for Cartoon Network, posting double and triple digit ratings delivery gains and was met with a positive reception. The film was released on the iTunes Store, while a DVD release was also originally planned. ==Plot== Eddy's most recent moneymaking scheme has backfired heavily and left Peach Creek in a state of devastation. The other children are horribly wounded, except for Sarah and Jimmy, and they all decide to confront the Eds violently. After narrowly escaping, the Eds decide to search for Eddy's older brother for protection. However, Eddy does not actually know where his brother lives. Although not affected by the scam, Jimmy and Sarah seek to have a picnic and watch the Eds get beaten up. Jonny and Plank don their respective superhero alter-egos "Captain Melonhead" and "Splinter the Wonderwood" while searching for the Eds in a city bus. Rolf leaves with overflowing luggage riding on the back of his pig Wilfred, using Wilfred's sense of smell and whatever deduction methods he has at his disposal to find the Eds. Kevin and Nazz travel via Kevin's prized bicycle. When the Kanker sisters Lee, Marie, and May find out what the kids plan on doing to the Eds, they go off to protect their "boyfriends" from the children's wrath. In the meantime, the Eds are left to aimlessly wander under Eddy's direction. In a cow field, Edd profiles Eddy's brother and reasons that given his con artistry, he would likely be found at a place involving pranks. Ed uses one of his 10-year-old comic books to suggest that the group travels to the Lemon Brook Gag Factory through a sunflower field. Upon arriving, they find the factory deserted and abandoned. Ed and Eddy goof around with the leftover gags while Edd searches for clues in the office. After leaving the factory, Eddy claims that his brother was once a "whaler". Edd then builds a boat to ride the river to the sea. The river ends in a swamp, destroying the boat. Ed and Eddy prank Edd into believing that they have sunk to their demises in quicksand. The two laugh at Edd for falling for the prank. Infuriated, Edd decides to return home and face the kids' wrath, and Ed bawls over their damaged friendship. Eddy is initially upset, but also cries and apologizes for the prank. Edd forgives him and the trio continues their journey. The next morning, the Eds come across a coastal theme park called ''Mondo A-Go Go'' which Edd links to a postcard Eddy has from his brother. The Eds conclude that they have successfully located his brother, living in a trailer resembling a whale. However, as Eddy is about to knock on the door, the Kanker sisters and all the Peach Creek kids, except Jonny and Plank, arrive. Eddy then knocks on the trailer door, and his brother reveals himself. Although his brother originally seems to be everything that the kids imagined, he reveals himself to be physically abusive towards Eddy without reason, leaving everyone appalled. When Edd tries to talk him out of harming Eddy any further, Eddy's brother dismissively uses Eddy to slam Edd into the ground. The other kids then begin to defend Eddy. Ed sends a door flying into Eddy's brother and knocks him out. Eddy expresses remorse over his past actions and reveals that everything he had ever said about his brother was a lie. Eddy also explains that he acted the way he did throughout the series in order to gain admiration and social acceptance. Touched by Eddy's confession and apology, the kids forgive and accept the Eds as friends. Jonny and Plank finally arrive and, without realizing what previously happened, attack the Eds. In response, the other kids attack Jonny and Plank. Afterwards, Kevin invites everyone over for jawbreakers and the children return home, while the Kankers drag Eddy's brother into his trailer. In the post-credits scene, Jonny and Plank, enraged after all of the kids turned against them, abandon their superhero alter-egos personas and adopt super villain alter-egos, "The Gourd" and "Timber the Dark Shard". Plank tells him that there is no time left in the movie, to which Jonny asks "What movie?". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ed, Edd n Eddy's Big Picture Show」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
