What happens

Bebe's Kids ( BAY-bay; also marketed as Robin Harris' Bebe's Kids) is a 1992 American adult animated comedy film produced by Hyperion Studio for Paramount Pictures. Directed by Bruce W. Smith in his directorial debut, it is based on a stand-up routine created by comedian Robin Harris. Harris died two years prior to the film's release; in the film, he is voiced by Faizon Love in his acting debut. As the first animated film to feature an entirely African-American main cast, it co-stars Vanessa Bell Calloway, Marques Houston, Nell Carter and Tone Lōc. Originally released theatrically on July 31, 1992, by Paramount Pictures, Bebe's Kids was a critical and commercial failure. Although its animation was praised, critics found fault with its story, screenplay and humor. Bebe's Kids grossed $8.4 million at the box office against a budget of $10 million, becoming a box office bomb. Despite this, it has developed a cult following, and spawned a video game of the same name two years later. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
