welcome to watchmojo.com you’re the best
of the best of the few and the prowl and
today we’re counting down our picks for
the top 10 movies based on toys we’re
looking at theatrically released or
direct-to-video feature films that
prominently feature real-life toys or
our adaptations of the toy itself
we’re also counting films that are based
on the idea of the gamer toy as well as
those that feature videogame products
and trading cards but we’re excluding
those films that only included toys that
were inspired by the films in question 1
bit number 10 kit kittredge an American
Girl Charlie kid George’s sister yes sir
I’m kit introduced in 1986 American Girl
dolls were designed to teach children
about different time periods and
ethnicities hello sweetie what’s your
name kit kittredge
well actually it’s Margaret Mills after
my mother and an aunt on my father’s
side but when I was younger my father
used to say pack up your troubles in
your old kit bag
this included depression Erica Kid Ridge
who became the star of the first
theatrically released American Girl
movie with the titular role played by
Abigail Breslin the movie focuses on the
intrepid young kid trying to solve a
mystery in her hometown of Cincinnati
sterling the home will sign for danger
the film’s greatest strength is perhaps
the fact that it provides a well-written
strong role model for young girls in its
young female protagonist congratulations
reporter you’re in print
number nine the wizard
Nintendo’s domination of the cultural
landscape reached a peak when this fun
but blatant commercial for their games
was released Nintendo game playing this
is Rick how can I help you in it Fred
Savage takes his brother on a
cross-country road trip to a videogame
tournament encountering Nintendo games
and some less important human characters
at almost every turn listen to me
you’ve lost yesterday’s one loss one guy
in addition to serving as the American
public’s hilariously overblown
introduction to Super Mario Bros 3 the
film remains a cult favourite for the
character of Lucas and his NES control
method of choice say it with us now it’s
so bad I love to power glove it’s so bad
number 8 the Care Bears movie you’re
next you might think that a movie based
on characters that originated in
greeting cards with a desperate idea
even in the mid 80s but the big-screen
debut of the world’s most caring bears
actually turned out all right
you’re right secret bear our only hope
is a Care Bear stare as one of the first
movies based directly on a toy line this
animated fantasy flick retained the
heart and spirit of its namesake while
providing a surprisingly dark
enthralling experience for its young
audience if that’s not enough to make
you care about it it even helped revive
the then dormant market for children’s
films
number seven poke him on the first movie
you two strikes back
can anybody even remember a world before
ash Pikachu when the phrase gotta catch
em all well this film was released when
polka mania reached its peak making sure
no one would soon forget about the
Pocket Monsters phenomenon that began as
a pair of Gameboy video games as always
ash is determined to become a Pokemon
master
as always he’s ready to endure any
hardship bear any burdens with strength
stamina and a will of Steel the first
Pokemon feature pitted Ash and his
friends against the incredibly powerful
pokémon Mewtwo who sought revenge
against humanity for the experiments
they did on him why can’t you to
understand it’s not right to force
pokémon to battle this way they’re all
living creatures this just proves that
fighting is wrong predictably the film
was a snorlax sized success paving the
way for a staggering 17 more pokemon
films in subsequent years so far for
years we struggled to successfully clone
a pokemon to prove our theories but
you’re the first specimen to survive
that is new the rarest of all pokemon
from its DNA we created you Mewtwo
number 6 Mars Attacks the hell’s he
talking flying saucers have come from
the planet Mars imagine those 50 SB
movies that you and your friends loved
making fun of so much then imagine them
done up with awesome special effects and
a tongue-in-cheek style and you have Tim
Burton’s bonkers alien invasion film
based upon the cold war-era trading
cards the movie captured the comic
irreverence of its source and boasted an
all-star cast that included Jack
Nicholson Glenn Close and Annette Bening
think how strong would be Earth and Mars
yeah and if none of that sounds
appealing then you can always take
pleasure in seeing Sarah Jessica
Parker’s head on the body of a chihuahua
I just want you to know that I liked it
number five clue then we go together it
was Professor plum in the library with
the revolver or was it maybe he was
poisoned
this 1985 cult classic remains one of
the only faithful and successful
adaptations of a board game with beloved
character actors like Tim Curry
Christopher Lloyd and Madeline Kahn
coming together to solve a murder at a
creepy New England mansion sorry so you
cannot leave this house know who’s gonna
stop me there’s no way all the windows
have bars all the doors are locked this
is an outrage you can’t hold us prisoner
but where the movie really stands out in
capturing the mystery spirit of the
board game is with its three possible
endings where different theater showed
one of three alternate conclusions
during its theatrical release I suggest
that we stack the bodies in the cellar
lock it
leave quiet clear one at a time and
pretend that none of this has ever
happened
number four GI Joe the movie fighting
for freedom wherever there’s trouble
over land
GI Joes
we doubt that many of you even knew
about this direct-to-video release based
on the beloved military toys but as some
wise soldiers once said knowing is half
the battle
released when the GI Joe Toye line was
at its peak popularity the movie depicts
the climactic confrontation between the
Joe’s and the evil forces of Cobra cover
me
the BET’s are only shot while it wasn’t
released in theaters it still serves as
the most accurate adaptation of the toys
to this day especially in light of 2009
s live-action GI Joe The Rise of Cobra
which top box offices but was a critical
disappointment and we look good yeah
well you better get used to it number
three transformers the movie’s new
Decepticon shenanigans in your area
all clear jazz and here we have the
adaptation that traumatized a generation
5 4 3 2 1
21 years before Michael Bay brought them
to the screen and the most bombastic way
possible the shape-shifting
japanese-american toys were featured in
a film where the stakes were bigger
darker and more epic than they’d ever
been it was a good choice in addition to
serving as the final roles for both
Scatman Crothers and the legendary Orson
Welles as the planet eater Unicron the
movie spoiler alert
also burned the image of the tragic
death of Autobot leader Optimus Prime
into our minds soon I shall be one with
the matrix number 2 the lego movie good
morning apartment
good morning doorway morning wall
morning ceiling good morning floor
building a movie off a toy line that’s
been around for over half a century and
with so many different incarnations is a
daunting task to say the least that’s
the day every rule-following citizen
gets a free taco and my love which is
why this 2014 film is such an awesome
accomplishment drink overpriced coffee
oh that’s $37 awesome
directed by comedic masterminds Phil
Lord and Christopher Miller this movie
is a frantic fast paced visually
wonderful sensory overload experience
that brings together so many characters
an icon from the Danish companies long
rich history relax everybody I’m here
Batman not bad for something that
started off as a tiny 2×4 plastic brick
president missus we’re trying to locate
the fugitive but his face is so generic
and matches every other face in our data
diabolical this is where we’d normally
have some honorable mentions but for
more toy based movies be sure to check
out our list of the top 10 worst movies
based on toys instead justice number one

containing the first fully computer
animated feature film wasn’t enough this
story Pixar franchise more than any
other perfectly captures what it was
like to play with your favorite toys
growing up excuse me I think the word
you’re searching for is Space Ranger
while the series features real-life toys
like mr. Potato Head green army man and
Barbie the movies then created a
successful toy line of their own with
real-life versions of characters like
Woody and Buzz Lightyear I just want you
to know that even though you tried to
terminate me revenge is not an idea we
promote on my planet

with us for infinity and beyond this is
