Here‘s to a quarter century of the biggest adventure for the smallest heroes we knew. We saw Tommy come to terms with what it means to be a brother when Dill came into his life. It’s a film that’s genuinely funny, and surprisingly heartfelt and dark. Remember, a baby’s got to do what a baby’s got to do.

Stu: We weren't gonna give you this until you were a little bit older, but, I think now's the right time. (hands Tommy a watch with a photo of him and Dil inside) Shiny, huh? And Grandpa Lou put your picture inside. I know it's hard, Tommy. You have a little brother now, and that's a big change.
(Tommy puts down the watch.)
Stu: Uh, Dil can be pretty tough to get along with, huh? But sometimes little brothers, they aren't everything you'd hoped they'd be. (Stu opens a drawer, then pulls out a picture of himself and Drew, when they were kids) That's why big brothers have got to have faith. And one day, you'll see...he'll change. After all, you've got responsibility now. I know I can trust that you'll stick by Dil's side and be a swell big brother.
Tommy: [thinking] Sponsatility...

"Katjusha did you just design a 90s cigarette mom OC based on the 1998 Rugrats movie--"
Yeah I did lol
Mila (Miloshka to her ex boyfriends) is in her early 20s but has the spirit of a middle-aged widow sauntering down a spiral staircase.
Born in Moscow, she was the child of a street musician and a showgirl. Despite a rough upbringing moving place to place, she's actually a sweetheart with a big maternal/domestic side that only a few people ever get to see. She's a great cook, tells jokes, has a playful personality, and would break her back to help a friend if they promised her a drink or a couple menthols.
But she's also dumb as shit. She used to be part of the carnival scene, but got picked up by a sleazy manager named Piotr Batkin and is stuck in a contract with him because she didn't read the fine print. Batkin has a terrible reputation for being abusive, controlling, and financially neglectful to his all-female performers.
But it isn't all bad for Mila. She met Sergei (ringmaster and co-founder of the Banana Brothers) through her manager and they struck a sibling-like friendship almost immediately, leading to her first circus gig. Not long after, she had joined the Banana Brothers Monkey Circus, despite the fact that she's terrified of monkeys (but she loves steady income). Now performing as a fire-eater and assistant to Igor's knife-throwing acts, Mila is simply trying to coast through the next few years of her contract so she can tell Batkin to piss off and take control of her career.
Unfortunately for her, Batkin has some strict rules about his 'girls', and doesn't like the fact that Mila and Igor have been spending a lot of time rehearsing in private. Rumors have been swirling for years that when Batkin doesn't get his way, people disappear. Would anyone notice if Mila never returned from their latest American tour?
(If I wrote a goddamn Rugrats adult murder mystery Russian mafia fanfic would anyone on god's green earth really be surprised???)

For real tho, I haven't really stopped to think about it too much before
No shitty live action movie
No shitty cheap 2D or CGI new series that loses the magic of the original style completely
No shitty EEnE 'Babies' or 'Go!'
No shitty hollywood celebrity voices to replace the original ones
Too bad that's such a rare occasion nowadays
