[Reduced Fat Karate Bastards]

Like all Disney-matic straight-to-video sequels, there was an original film that was successful enough to procreate dilluted offspring. That is not the case for Reduced Fat Karate Bastards. Whether we're implying that the original film was of inferior, shoddy, 37th generation VHS quality devoid of any redeeming story or humor which possibly got taped over with porn, or if an original never existed at all, we're not saying. Regardless, the outcome is the same: nobody knows what the hell is going on in RFKB2.

Technically not a Plotcebo film at all but rather a spawn-child of Rethaoiate, but without them Plotcebo would just be #16 on several people's "Wet-Dream List of Things To Do When I Think I Only Have 24 Hours to Live". RFKB is that kind of movie: a product of desperation, or possibly more appropriately, "all in our heads." We get that a lot.

But what we don't have a lot of is media to share of this potentially imaginary film. Rather convenient, really. However, this raises difficulties in laying down a solid foundation to the Skyscraper of Understanding of its sequel. There are a few Scraps of Facts, though:

Year produced: 1997
People Involved: 3 humans, one robot
Celebrity Guest Appearance: Jean-Luc Picard
Sequels Spawned: 1
If I Were an Animal, I'd be: a turkey

We do have a special treat for you. Now you, too, can experience the incredible origins of Wanton-Fui Fukimatchi Smith and the rest of the gang. What follows is a rough recreation of the experience, hacked together into a script illustrated by ASCII art! Enjoy!
