Plot
CENTRAL
BETA On a road trip to their Grandparents' farm, Abby and her friend Marcella
are content playing with a stuffed Barney doll, while Cody believes
Barney's "kids stuff." At the farm house, Cody takes Barney from the girls
GAMES and hides him in the shower, where he comes to life. Barney tries to
convince Cody that it was his imagination that made him real, but fails to
do so. Instead he points out that real dinosaurs don't laugh or talk or
ANIME laugh- there aren't any real dinosaurs anymore. Cody plays a trick for
Barney to disappear, because he doesn't believe in him. For revenge,
Barney reappears because he believes in Cody.
MOVIES
Wishing to do something no one's done before, an egg shoots down from
the sky into the barn. The next day, Barney, Abby and Marcella went to
have fun on the farm. While going to ask Abby and Cody's grandparents
TV
about the egg, Barney heard Baby Fig and went up to check on him. Cody
finds Barney in the baby's room and they take the egg to Mrs. Goldfinch,
the local bird lady. They learn it's a Dream-maker, and they have to return
VIDEO
the egg before all five of its colored rings light up. Cody loses the egg by
knocking it out a passageway and it lands on a bird seed truck. The chase
is on!
WIKIS
From a parade with a marching band and a visit to Chez Snobbe, a fancy
restaurant, to a circus, the kids and Barney are on a pursuit for the egg.

START A
When a juggler sends it flying, the kids lose all hope of finding it, but
WIKI
Barney tells them to not give up. After learning it ended up on a balloon,
the group imagines (with the help of the audience) flying on an airplane
made out of a log. Barney's friend, the Collector, has the egg as a ballast
(to keep the balloon steady), but after some convincing, he drops it and
Abby catches it just in time. Back on the farm, the egg hatches in the
barn, revealing a koala-like creature, named Twinken.
Twinken shows Abby's dream (to be a jockey and win a horse race) to
everyone. Cody apologizes to Barney for being mean to him and admits
he thinks he's cool. Barney accepts his apology and tells Cody he thinks
he's cool too and the two share a hug. Twinken then shows Barney's
dream : "a special time, a special place and sharing it with the people he
loves," which leads Barney and the rest of the cast to sing "I Love You."
Baby Bop gets sleepy, which prompts BJ to decide that they're ready to
go home. The film ends with Barney turning back into a doll with Twinken
sitting right next to him, as the two of them wink.

Development
Word of a Barney film first arose in November 1992 when Debbie Ries,
sales director for the Lyons Group said plans for a movie was in the
works.[2] In 1993, it was later announced by creator Sheryl Leach at the
The National Press Club in Washington, D.C. that a movie was coming.
Later in 1994, a Barney Magazine states that Barney would star in his first
ever film entitled Barney: The Movie.

At the time of development, around the mid-nineties, all the major film
studios wanted to do a Barney feature, with the production companies

FANDOM
pitching to the owners of Barney. One of the studios even assembled the
executives together to sing "I Love You" to Sheryl Leach when she arrived
to the respective studio.

Co-creator of South Park, Trey Parker, was


FAN offered a million and a half dollars to direct
CENTRAL
BETA
the film, after the crew saw he could do
funny things with kids since he did The
Spirit of Christmas. Parker declined the

GAMES
offer.[3]

The film would originally be distributed


David Geffen and Barney the
ANIME Dinosaur worldwide by Geffen Pictures through
Warner Bros and produced by Sheryl Leach
and Dennis DeShazer.[4] The film was originally set to be released in
MOVIES January 1995[5] before being delayed to the summer of 1995.[6] Warner
Bros. and Lyons had disagreements over marketing, leading the latter to
bring the film (with help from now former producer Geffen) to Polygram.[7]
TV

Director of the film, Steve Gomer was approached for the feature by an
individual who called in regards that a musical Barney film was being
VIDEO made. Gomer had no interest in being apart of the television series, but
did express interest in doing the film.

WIKIS Writing
An initial script was already penned, by series writer Stephen White,

START A
however it was cut down as the director viewed the script as lengthy.[8]
WIKI

Script Changes
Originally the egg was going to hatch a giant bird, who misses its
mother.
Baby Bop and BJ were expected to make a lot more screen time,
appearing in the farmhouse attic, but those scenes were soon
scrapped, as Gomer claimed the scenes to be "unaffordable."
Miss Goldfinch was originally planned to be a comedic character, as
apposed to the more subdued character of the final film.
The circus scenes and the "Collector" character were not in the
original drafts. In addition, rather than using a log, Barney and
friends would have built a plane out of cardboard boxes.[9]
The film originally saw our main characters, Cody, Abby, Marcella,
Miss Goldfinch, the grandparents, Baby Bop, BJ, and the little bird,
each have dreams and desires that would've been fulfilled by the
end of the film.

Casting
On July 25, 1996, it was announced that John Travolta, Demi Moore, Rosie
O’Donnell, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver were expected to
make cameos in the film. These cameos never occurred in the final film.[10]

Actress Mara Wilson was offered a role in the film, but turned it down out
of frustration of being branded in "cute" movies.

Filming
Gomer expressed desire to work in Montreal, Canada to save on the cost
of filming the movie.

To Sheryl Leach, it was a joy of filming as she stated "It was a joy to do the
film because it took me back to the early days in Barney's development.

FANDOM Just like the beginning days of Barney, this movie takes him to places
children have never experienced with him before. The film was a great
opportunity to open new story lines and environments so that children
can travel to new places with their friend, Barney," Leach says. "The film
goes to some incredible places that we hope will appeal not only to
FAN children but to adults as well." Leach adds that the film allowed them to

"take the familiar Barney and put him outdoors and in other very different
settings from his traditional environments." The film was shot on locations
outside Montreal, Canada, including the renowned Ste. Anne­deBellevue's

was initially a bit skeptical of the large purple star.[11]

"If You're Happy and You Know It" is much more grander and longer

Barney's Great Adventure received mixed to negative reviews


from film critics, owing to it being based on the aforementioned
television program which is aimed for young children aged 2–7,
the growing popularity of "anti-Barney humor", and the general
unpopularity of the Barney series outside of its target audience
of preschoolers. John Petrakis wrote in the Chicago Tribune, "If
my 21-month-old son had any inkling that I was giving a less
than stellar review to [this film,] he would no doubt shoot me
that look he tends to give when his milk is warm or his Cheerios
a bit stale." The New York Times' Anita Gates wrote that it was a
film "his young, undemanding fans are likely to enjoy."
