* 单元影视 Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs is a 2009 American computer-animated comic science fiction film produced by Sony Pictures Animation, distributed by Columbia Pictures, and released on September 18, 2009. The film is loosely based on the childrens book of the same name by Judi and Ron Barrett. It was a critical and commercial success, earning $243 million worldwide, on a budget of $100 million. A sequel (续集), titled Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2, was released on September 27, 2013. The town of Swallow Falls, located on a tiny island hidden under the “A” in “Atlantic” on the world map, suffers an economic downturn (衰退) after the market collapses, leaving sardines as the only food in Swallow Falls. Flint Lockwood is a scientist whose inventions, beginning as a child when he created diamond-hard Spray-On Shoes, have all ended in disaster, including a Remote Controlled TV (it came to life and ran off), Hair Un-Balder (it grew too much hair), Flying Car (it didn’t fly), and Rat-birds (“they escaped and bred at a surprising rate”). Flint’s latest invention, Flint Lockwood’s Diatonic Super Mutating Dynamic Food Replicator (or the FLDSMDFR), is a microwave machine that converts water molecules (分子) into food. When the two witness giant purple clouds raining cheeseburgers over Swallow Falls, Flint becomes famous, with new foods raining down every day. The Mayor convinces Flint to create food every day that will turn Swallow Falls into a new tourist attraction called “Chewandswallow”. Flint uses his Spray-On Shoes formula to block the spout, causing the FLDSMDFR and the meatball to explode. The giant food clouds around the world disappear, and Sam, Brent, Steve, and Manny manage to land safely. Tim is finally able to express his love and admiration for his son by using Steves monkey-thought translator, and Sam and Flint share their first kiss. The Mayor is deflated and then arrested.
