I have been beating my brain over trying to remember this one. All I remember is that the movie started out with a kid asleep in his bed. At a certain time, a cuckoo clock went off. The bird came out of the clock and started a steel ball along an elaborate maze. As the ball passed through the maze, it would knock over things. Eventually the ball went through the mouth of some sort of toy monster and fell. On the way to the ground it would hit a bell and the kid woke up. My friends think I'm out of my mind, but I vaguely remember this. Anybody have a clue about this one?

I can't think of anything offhand Was it a cartoon or a live action show?

Wouldn't it be something starring Pee-wee Herman?

i own all of Paul Reubens's junk as pee-wee and i don't remember a scene like that. maybe his first movie...but the ball didnt hit a bell, it hit a machine that made a glass or oj, toast and eggs.

Do you really own all that? :mrgreen:

OH SHIT! THAT GAVE ME GOOSE BUMPS! i remember that. holy god. thanx fot the find. wow!

yeah, my g/f ingrid gave me all of his junk for x-mas last year. even his showtime and tv specials[/img]

old school! reminds me of staying at my grandmas and watching channel 9. :)

what movie had the seseme street pinball count in it

wasnt that from Sesame Street? i remember that! heh :lol:

ive seen Peewee's Big Adventure enough times to know that this ISNT what the thread starter is talking about.

i think I do remember the sequence described..

the only thing that comes to mind is that horrid series of 'christian' VHS movie things called "Mcgee & Me". in case nobody understands what im talking about, Mcgee & Me featured this ugly blonde kid, who loved to draw or something, but his artistry never actually improved at all within the bizzare timeline of the movies. anyway, his drawing, Mcgee (this ugly little troll with sideburns), would come to life and help him make good christian decisions.
thing is, neither of them would EVER make good decisions. the formula of every movie was that they would make the worst decisions possible, and then have to deal with the consequences when everything went to hell in a handbasket. The main character was a total dick.

in retrospect, the elaborate contraption in the intro to Mcgee & Me led up to a pencil sharpener, not an alarm clock.
but im pretty certain I remember the scene that was described from somewhere..

now ill NEVER get to sleep.
