The Strawberry Shortcake Movie: Sky's the Limit is a 2009 animated adventure film directed by Michael Hack and Mucci Fassett. It serves as the pilot for Strawberry Shortcake's Berry Bitty Adventures, a series that aired one year after the film's release. It also takes place after a pilot cartoon based on it.
Synopsis
[edit]After the Berryworks water supply is blocked by a giant rock brought down by a lightning storm, Strawberry Shortcake and her friends are desperate to find a water source before they will have to evacuate their hometown, Berry Bitty City, for good to live in another region far away, but also a large source of water. She then hears the legend about an ancient artifact found in the mountains to expose eternal water when revealed to sunlight. She and her friends head off on a quest to retrieve the object and try to save the city with it, but unknown to them, the main "legend" is actually a false hoax.
Production
[edit]When Hasbro had won the TV license from Playmates in 2008, American Greetings, the original owner of the Strawberry Shortcake franchise, announced a new series to debut in 2010, but would first produce a pilot cartoon and a film to introduce the new setting. The film first began production in August and ended later in June 2009. It was first screened in the FOX Studios in Los Angeles on July 31. It was then directly released on DVD and Blu-Ray by 20th Century Fox on September 15 the same year and was also distributed by Kidtoon Films in April 2011.
In France, it made its premiere as a TV movie on Playhouse Disney on December 5, 2009[1] and was later released on DVD on December 9.
