Hooves of Fire (1999) - full transcript

Robbie the reindeer is determined to win a place pulling Santa's sled. Unfortunately, he's got two problems facing him. One, he's sadly out of shape; two, he doesn't realize his pal Blitzen is cheating! Confused by the temptations of sexy lady reindeer Vixen, and completely unaware of bubble-headed Donner's love for him, Robbie faces the race of his life.

Our Story begins in the north, north of the Northlands

of coldest North-est lands, even north-er of than that

There, Coldchester, the town at the North Pole

Oh, one thing

I know what we'll be doing for one day of the year

But what do we do the other 364 days? Huh?

Well, we

Sort of like that

Oh...

Maybe a bit of...

Sorry, Robbie, but it's definitely

Right...

A reindeer to cook, a reindeer to wash up...

And all of those reindeer are me

The official snack food of The Reindeer Games

Hold it there

I was watching that

Vixen, Prancer

We've got a new reindeer in the ranks today,
and he might find it hard to settle in

So, as senior reindeer, I'd like you to help me

Me make it hell for him

Let's crush 'em

Trample 'em to dust then, then throw the remains of the dust to the the wolves

Then blow up the wolves!

- You don't like him do you?
- Not especially, no

Ahhhh, this is about his dad, isn't it?

I've been captain of the sleigh team for years

But Robbie's dad, he's still a famous one

The children sing a song about me? Noooo!!!

Am I on the Magazine's? Noooo!!!

Do I endorse carpet cleaner? NO!

No, no, just just because, he saved the day for the boss one time

And now he sent his son

Ooooo, whoooo, I'm Robbie

I've got a magic nose, I can find my way hey

At least Robbie's dad got out of this frozen hole

He was a smart reindeer that Ruuuu

No, no, no, no
I will not have that name said in my presence

Are you talking about Ruddd

A German name wasn't it? Um, Rudmph

It was a catchy song wasn't it? A one, a two, a Ruhhhhh

Well, if I can't get him, I'll get his son

I will not sleep until I have destroyed Robbie

Hmmmmm

Think eviller...

- Enjoying the training Robbie?
- I don't really have to do this, do I?

I mean, I'm just a navigator...

I don't need to be fit

Can't we just have the day off and slob around

And eat toast in our pants pants?

Oooo, what's this fer?

Ah, that's better

- Robbie
- Look, I found the downhill setting

Wheeeeeee

Robbie, even if you're the navigator, you still have to be fit

If you don't get fit, then... ♪

Ahhhhhh!

Got it

Robbie

Why don't you just, carry on as you are?

Have a paper, have a pipe...

Have a cheeseburger and large fries

Cheers Blitzen, you're a pal

Keep coasting...

Next

Oooo, I don't know about this fitness life Donner

I've been here a month and I've decided strength isn't really my strength

- Can you just loosen my neck a little?
- Sure

Dumpy da da da da da

Do do do do do do do

Oh

I just can't concentrate on the exercise

I met a very special reindeer

And, ah, I can't stop thinking about her

Robbie, I didn't know you felt that way too

Because, well, no one, usually notices me

- and ah
- she so beautiful and she's so graceful

And she's called...

VIXEN

Vixen

Yeah, yeah, wonderful Vixen

Isn't She Lovely?

Yeah, can't seem to talk to her though

You see? I have this thing where
I can't talk to girls if I love them

You can talk to me though

Of course I can, we're mates...

Right

Donner, eh, Donner? Donner???

I'll open it

Uhaaahhh

You are all invited to a soy, soy, soyre, soyrechez

- It's all in French
- Party at Beardy's house

- Hooray
- Hooray, great

Weirdy beardy throws wild parties and
everyone who matters will be

Oh, will they

Of course, I'm going

Dearest

They coming

- I know
- Just choose an outfit

What about this, it's modern

I still like the old red coat

I can't wear that to a party

Everyone seen it

Ho ho, ho ho, oh you must be Robbie

Hello

Ho Ho Ho, found you eh, alright?

No problem

Look at you I bet your trainer dead add eh?

Oh, yes

Ha, ha ha, your a good deer

Just like your dad

Hey hey hey, not that your in your dad's shadow

I won't keep banging on about your dad you know

He's terrific your dad

Yow man!!!

Well, this is a room with some animals in it

Ooooo, ooooo, look Donner, look

Oooooo

Vixen's coming

I was sent a bunch of flowers today, Robbie

And I knew they were from you

Owawaah

Do you know how? Because they were cheap

But it was all the money I had

Thank you Seal, is this a bit more me?

- Yeah
- Yeah

Now, now, I brought yer all here because
I've got something very exciting to show ya

May I present the future of present delivery,
Sleigh... Mark... Two

I made the modifications me self

For long journeys, a stereo

Hmmmm, and using the latest technology, an intelligence ashtray

Don't smoke you idiot

And there's one more thing which was Blitzen's idea

Eh, so, thank you Blitzen,
An automatic sleigh navigation system

Oh, suppose, that's me out of the team then

Ah, not necessarily Robbie

Blitzen came up with a very fair way
of deciding who we should leave behind

It'll be the reindeer, who is most unfit

Well, Dad, I blew it

I could have got fit but I was cocky and I was lazy

Sorry, Dad

- I'll never be another Ru...
- Hush child, no need to say such sad things

So, come on give Blitz in a smile

Do you know what I think?

No but...

I think the boss is going to take you on the
sleigh anyway, because he liked your dad

Oh

He'll kick off some other reindeer who's trained for it all year

Oh dear

But that doesn't matter,
and the sleigh will be slow and late

But no one will blame you

They'll blame your dad, for having you

Oh, dear

And of course, there will be little children

Who will wake up on Christmas morn
and open their stockings

- With bright eyes, and discover inside... nothing
- But but

But their Mommy's will say,
never mind at least Robbie had a huge laughs

Thanks Blitzen

You've opened my eyes

Robbie, nooooo

I'm going outside

I may be some time

Don't Go... Robbie

It's a cold night Blitzen

If only someone would Stoke, my fire

Well... it would be rude not to

Christmas has arrived already

Only 5,000 miles to home

Have to, raise, spirits, try, whistling

He needs them to fight his archenemy

Octo Monkey,

Gaarrrrrr, I'll get you, Sebastian

What could possibly be worse than sweeping up?

These are the multi gens you wanted Miss Donner,
sign here, please

There's something familiar about that forklift truck

Ehhhh, hello, Donner

I was a rubbish deer

I'm even a rubbish elf

I'm worse than rubbish

If you threw me on a Rubbish Tip,
the other rubbish would say

Ho, there goes the neighborhood, huh?

You're not finished yet Robbie

I know a way you can get back on the sleigh team

- How?
- Just before Christmas

There's a big sports tournament for reindeer

"The Reindeer Games"

Sponsored by, HAY, the official snack food of The Reindeer Games

If you go all out to win a medal,
you can get your place back

The Reindeer Games

Oh, no, no

Oh no, I'm exhausted just thinking about it

Robbie, you can do this

It'll be tough

- Yeah
- But I'll help you

Yeah, I don't need to be a failure all my life

I'll actually make a go of it, for me,
for my dad, and most of all for

VIXEN!

Blitzen will do anything to stop you winning

Oh, come on, he's my best friend,
the noblest deer in the world

I told you he's my best friend

He's got a picture of me on

"Wise Old coaches who can save the day"

And there's only one in the area

He's called "Old Jingle"

I've heard of all jingle

He was old when my dad was a kid

He can't still be around, can he?
