Crash Bandicoot (movie franchise)

Crash Bandicoot is a computer-animated adventure-comedy film franchise based on the video game series of the same name.

Crash Bandicoot
The first film in the franchise focuses on the origins of the titular protagonist. Genetically modified to serve the villainous Dr. Cortex, Crash was deemed completely unstable and was set to be destroyed. His sister Coco—also altered by the scientist—escaped with him. They washed up on N. Sanity Island and met the spirit of a witch doctor named Aku Aku. The spirit offers to help the Bandicoots against Dr. Cortex and his army of brainwashed animals. The film is mainly based on the first two Crash Bandicoot video games.

Crash in Time
The second film takes place shortly after the events of the first film. Following the accidental release of Uka Uka, Dr. Cortex forms an alliance with him and builds the Time-Twisting Machine to retrieve crystals from different time periods. The race is on as Crash and Coco are sent by Aku Aku to collect all the crystals before Cortex’s minions do. The film is based on Crash Bandicoot: Warped.

Crash Bandicoot: Crunch Time
The third film of the series focuses on the creation of Crunch Bandicoot. Uka Uka fires Cortex for his failures and turns to Dr. Nefarious Tropy, who creates Crunch as a secret weapon to destroy Crash for good. He also releases the Elementals so his mutated monster will have more than enough power to do so. Crash must find a way to outsmart the overpowered mutant. The film is based on The Wrath of Cortex and N-Tranced.

Dr. Cortex: Villain for Hire
After the events of the previous film, Dr. Cortex is annoyed with unemployment and begins his journey as an anti-villain. With his no-nonsense niece Nina stuck at school, he makes it his sole mission to defeat Uka Uka as revenge and take the planet for himself. His adventure lands him in the middle of the rivalry between Crash and N. Tropy.

Crash Bandicoot: Twinsanity
Dr. Cortex successfully defeated Uka Uka but failed to rule the world, and targets Crash once more. However, their usual routine is interrupted when two odd parrots from an alternate dimension arrive and hope to destroy the globe. Now Crash must join forces with Cortex, who has some form of history with the new adversaries. The film is based on the game of the same name.

Coco Bandicoot
The second spin-off film in the series focuses on Crash‘s sister Coco. During the events of Twinsanity, Coco uncovers a plot by Nina Cortex. With her brother battling two evil parrots, she teams up with her friend Tawna to take down the scientist and save other bandicoots from her clutches. The film borrows the plot of the cancelled game Crash Landed.
