b'Hey Everyone,\\n\\nAngela Bowen here, the host of Looking Back On My Wonder Years: A Wonder Years.\\n\\nWell, today, I decided to conclude the trilogy of the Honey Franchise with Honey, We shrunk Ourselves, which was released straight to video in 1997.\\n\\nMovie Synopsis:\\n\\nWayne Szalinzki, a wacky, absent-minded inventor, is back again but only this time he decides to use his infamous shrink machine just one more time. His wife Diane asks him to get rid of the "Tiki Man" a large tiki sculpture. Wayne refuses to get rid of it so he decides to restart the shrink ray and reduces the Tiki Man to pocket-size. However, after Wayne shrinks the Tiki Man the machine is accidentally activated and Wayne ends up shrinking himself and his brother Gordon. Meanwhile, when Gordon\'s wife Patty and Diane were going on a vacation they went back to the house when Patty suddenly realizes she forgot Mitch\'s medicine for his potassium deficiency. When they were about to leave, they decide to sneak into the attic and surprise the men, but the shrink ray is activated once again, and the ladies are shrunk as well. So the team must be very brave of disgusting household insects the size of dinosaurs and more in their biggest adventure to get their children\'s attention.\\n\\nThe character of Diane is beyond ruined in this film as she comes off as quite a "bitch" in this movie and her and Wayne act like they don\'t love each other and she can\'t wait to abandon him and their 10 year old son Adam (which even Wayne seems to also act like Adam is such an inconvenience) for a girls weekend with her sister in law.\\n\\nWe also have the new addition of the Szalinski Uncle Gordon and Aunt Patty along with cousins Jenny (played by Allison Mack) and Mitch (the one with the potassium deficiency).\\n\\nQuark is dead and Amy and Nick have moved on to better things like their own lives with their own family and or college, but at least they get a name drop.\\n\\nMila Kunis\'s first film role, so adorable. Bug Hall (1994 The Little Rascals only this time he has wheat colored hair instead of Alfalfa black)plays 10 year old Adam.\\n\\nJenny\'s crush who is repeatedly referred to by his whole name Ricky King even to his face when he and his cronies crash the kid\'s party.\\n\\nVolcano Chili Lava with Hot Dog People is Lava-licious!\\n\\nOnly in Wayne\'s mind would a Sports Illustrated For Kids be as bad as a Playboy Mag.\\n\\nEven though this is the worst in the trilogy, I had a fun time with this movie and hope you all do too!\\n\\nAn as always:\\n\\nStay Safe, Stay Strong, Stay Positive!\\n\\nWe WILL Get Through This!'
