What happens

Babe: Pig in the City is a 1998 comedy-drama adventure film and a sequel to Babe (1995). The film was co-written, produced and directed by George Miller, the original film's co-writer and producer, and features Magda Szubanski and James Cromwell reprising their roles, with Mickey Rooney joining the cast. The film was nominated for Best Original Song at the 71st Academy Awards. On initial release, the film received mixed reviews from critics and failed to match the financial success of its predecessor, grossing $69.1 million on a $90 million budget. However, it has developed a cult following and a positive critical reassessment since its release. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
