Top Cat Gets Lost in Madagascar (originally titled as Top Cat Returns to Madagascar or Top Cat Goes to Madagascar in the working title) is the new Top Cat/DreamWorks, as well the first Top Cat/Madagascar crossover film by Davinci Martinez. It will appear on Google Photos in the near future.
Synopsis[]
Top Cat, Officer Dibble, Benny the Ball, Choo Choo, Fancy Fancy, Spook, Brain and his friends go to the Central Park Zoo to meet Alex, Marty, Gloria, and Melman, but one day later, they are sent from the zoo to the wild before they are dumped into Madagascar.
Plot[]
At the Central Park Zoo, Marty the zebra celebrates his tenth birthday but has grown bored with his daily routine and longs to experience the wild. Marty's best friend is Alex the lion, who enjoys showing off for the public and his celebrity status as "the king of New York". Alex attempts to cheer Marty up, but Marty, still unsatisfied, learns that the zoo's penguins—Skipper, Kowalski, Rico, and Private—are trying to escape, and follows them out. Alex, Melman the giraffe, and Gloria the hippopotamus pursue Marty and attempt to convince him to return. The four, along with the penguins and two chimpanzees named Mason and Phil, converge at Grand Central Station where the authorities sedate them using tranquillizer guns. Under pressure from anti-captivity activists, the zoo is forced to ship the escaped animals by sea to a Kenyan wildlife preserve. During their travels, the penguins escape and take over the ship, intent on taking it to Antarctica. Their antics on the bridge cause the crates containing Alex, Marty, Melman, and Gloria to fall overboard and wash ashore on Madagascar.
The animals come across a pack of lemurs led by King Julien XIII. The predatory fossa attack the lemurs, but are scared off by Alex's fearsome appearance. Alex blames Marty for the group's predicament and attempts to signal for help to get back to civilization. Marty finds the wild to be exactly what he was looking for, and Gloria and Melman soon join him in enjoying the island. Alex eventually comes around, but without the raw steaks he was provided at the zoo, hunger sets in and his prey drive begins to show. King Julien has the lemurs befriend the zoo animals in the hope that Alex's presence will keep the fossa at bay, despite his adviser Maurice's warnings about Alex's predatory nature. When Alex loses control and attacks Marty, Julien realizes that he is a threat and banishes him to the predator side of the island, where the fossa live. Seeing what has happened to Alex, and how dangerous the wild can be, Marty begins to regret his decision to leave the zoo.
The penguins, having found Antarctica to be inhospitable, land the ship at Madagascar. Seeing the chance to return Alex to New York, Marty crosses over to the predator side and attempts to convince the grizzled, starving Alex to return, but Alex refuses out of fear that he will attack Marty again. The fossa attack Marty, and though Gloria, Melman, and the penguins come to the rescue, they are outnumbered. Alex overcomes his predatory instincts, rescues his friends, and scares the fossa away from the lemur territory forever. The lemurs regain their respect for Alex, and the penguins satisfy his hunger by feeding him sushi. As the lemurs throw a farewell celebration for the foursome, the penguins decide not to break the news that the ship has run out of fuel, thus leaving them stranded on the island.
Trivia[]
- Tennessee Tuxedo, Chumley, Strawberry Shortcake, Custard, Orange Blossom, Ginger Snap, Angel Cake, Wallace and Gromit will guest star in this film.
- Due to brief language and details, this film will be censored. For instance, when Melman tells Marty about his first thermometer, Marty will exclaim "What the--?" instead of "Mother--" (due to it being a near use of "motherf**k"), Melman will mention his "stomach infection" instead of his "bladder infection", when the "HELP" falls into "HELL", the "HELL" sign will be omitted with Alex being focused, and when the penguins arrive in Antarctica, Private will say "Well, this stinks." instead of "Well, this sucks." to avoid mild language or any private part mentions in a kids film.
- The storyline continues in Top Cat Gets Lost in Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa, Top Cat Gets Lost in Madagascar 3: Europe's Most Wanted and Top Cat's Adventures with Penguins of Madagascar.
