ATBW Movie: New Horizons

ATBW Movie: New Horizons is a 1995 live action film released by ATBW Label Networks on May 7, 1995 and it is where all ATBW Characters are somehow teleported to the real world and have no clue on how to get back. The characters include Zach, Jeffery, Fender, Silver Quartz, Red Epsilon, Orange Omega, Blue Marauder, and other stars from The Dancing Bass Fish and The Blue Friendly Panther, as well as other guest appearances including Pido The Rabbit and his friends, Lapis The Blue Hippopotamus, and through contracts with the company, even early ATBW Blog Characters have also appeared in the movie.

The movie had been planned and some of ATBW Blog's earliest famous users eventually passed their ideas to have their characters to appear in the movie. With two being nominated to have their characters star in the movie. This project first started in 1992 as Eric Langile III, who was CEO of the company at the time wanted to see a movie with all of ATBW's old and new characters star in one movie. There were also a few cameos in this movie, including Felix The Cat and Tom And Jerry appearing in certain parts of the film. This was the first time an ATBW movie had included characters not owned by the company.

A few other 1920's cartoon characters have also made cameos such as Betty Boop and Bimbo The Dog from that same series. In a statement by Eric Langile III, he said that the film was made to mix the old with the new. The film took three years to produce and the ATBW Blog Studios were eventually given their opportunity to add their characters into the movie.

Plot
After chaos goes on in the world of ATBW, they discover a cave they landed. Jeffery sees light from one of the tunnels inside a cave they got themselves into. Zach sticks his hand in the portal but Jeffery warns him not to, as it may be a trap. Eventually, Fender goes to see it but Zach kicks him into the portal, and everyone ends up going in it as well. They end up teleporting to another dimension they never seen before and discover Wedgeheads, which the main characters are descendants of ATBW Label Networks. At the same time, Signature Deer and Rose Gold Flamingo and friends land in that same place as well. After meeting up, they get caught in a tornado and are instantly brought to the real world. They end up in a city called "Linear City," which is a small busy city where they end up and is surrounded by mile-long farmland. At one point, a businessman hires each and every character to work at his restaurant, which includes a bar and a stage for performances. However, despite the characters being on the same team, most don't get along very well and almost always fight each other (sometimes literally).

While working at the restaurant, they see Tom and Jerry as entertainers in the restaurant. They both chase each other inside the restaurant but eventually team up and defend themselves from the ATBW gang.
