The Adventures of Timmy the Tooth (film)

The Adventures of Timmy the Tooth is a 2001 film that is somewhat based off the direct to video series of the same name by Universal Studios Home Entertainment. The film follows Timmy the Tooth embarking on an adventure with his new friends named Miss Braceface, Dacker and Narwitz, defeating an evil villain named Cavity Joe to fight cavities off of an old man’s teeth. That old man is named Clyde Mandelson and had a daughter named Danielle Mandelson, who is sweet, kind and mature to her new friends. It had a song called It’s Our House Now, which is sung to the tune of The Best Christmas Ever from Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer and the Island of Misfit Toys. The whole movie is in CGI for puppet characters and Live Action for people and landscapes to go with the actual direct to video series. The film was released on July 15, 2001 in theaters in the United States. It was distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures, Bomp Productions and Universal Pictures. The film was released on VHS and DVD in October 11th, 2001 and was released later on Blu Ray in January 19, 2012 by Warner Home Video and Universal Studios Home Entertainment.
