THE BOB’s BURGERS MOVIE

The Bob’s Burgers Movie is an animated, big-screen, musical comedy-mystery-adventure based on the long-running Emmy-winning series. The story begins when a ruptured water main creates an enormous sinkhole right in front of Bob’s Burgers, blocking the entrance indefinitely and ruining the Belchers’ plans for a successful summer. While Bob and Linda struggle to keep the business afloat, the kids try to solve a mystery that could save their family’s restaurant. As the dangers mount, these underdogs help each other find hope and fight to get back behind the counter, where they belong.  

The full list of nominees for Best Animated Movie included the following:

1.The Bob’s Burgers Movie – WINNER
2.Chip ‘n Dale: Rescue Rangers
3.Lightyear
4.Turning Red
5.Wendell & Wild

For audiences who are unfamiliar with the series, members of the cast previously recommended episodes to check out to prepare for the feature-length experience.

“I would probably go to one of the Thanksgiving episodes as a primer for what the family is like and the dynamic between them,” actor H. Jon Benjamin shared with Variety. “Any one of the holiday episodes is usually a good indicator of the spirit of the show. Something always goes wrong, and then they come together and sort of fix it, but not quite.”  

“I love all the holiday episodes, it’s nice to think people are more open on a holiday like Thanksgiving, and everyone’s sitting around the TV and relaxing,” John Roberts pointed out. “So I think that’s a good one to start with, ‘Dawn of the Peck.’”

Check out The Bob’s Burgers Movie on Hulu and HBO Max now.
