Tracy Moore Productions

{{cleanup|The individual films need to get their own pages.|| In 2006, a seventh grade student named Tracy Moore made a film for a class. With his friends and their parents and teachers as actors, he went on to create no fewer than five feature films over the course of the next five years. This is the page about those films. In order, they are:

The Heir in the Window (2006) The original Tracy Moore film, about a baby named Kimberly Lauren abandoned by her evil mother Regina Roberts as part of Regina's convoluted plot to kill Queen Elizabeth II and seize the throne of England. When Regina and her son Frederick drop in on the Queen for a visit at the Queen's summer home in New York twelve years later, Frederick discovers a baby picture hidden in his Mother's luggage, spurring him to go on a quest to find his long-lost sister so they can return and defeat Regina's evil plot. Also features Tracy Moore himself in a crossdressing role as the Cloudcuckoolander maid Helen.

Fubee (2007) The first truly feature-length film from Tracy Moore Productions, Fubee follows the story of an average klutz named Fubee Snopatropalopolis and her cheese-obsessed mother Carla, as they try to figure out who robbed seventeen million dollars from the bank that Carla used to work at. They follow a trail of clues through gossip DVD's, the newspaper, the weird answering machines and more to track down the robbers. The movies tag line is "A Different Kind of Strange," and This Troper can only say "and how!"

Special Delivery (2008) centers around Dr. Cheryl Feelings and her niece Mindy in a Two Lines, No Waiting style. One day, Cheryl finds a mysterious box on her doorstep, which it turns out is actually the "house" of a crazy homeless lady named Mrs. Hinkle. She also receives several generous offers to buy her house from a very persistent realtor named Kathy Calzone. As it turns out, one of the therapy patients, Robert, is an evil insurance salesman who all but bankrupted Mrs. Hinkles and is now getting therapy in an effort to get at and destroy the evidence from his corrupt dealings. He and his henchwoman Kathy intend to do this by blowing up Cheryl's house. It's up to Cheryl, Mrs. Hinkles, reporter Clow Harris and schizophrenic patient Alfred to stop them. Meanwhile, Mindy and her Writing Club get together to try to publish the journals of Mrs. Hinkles's late husband Frank into a book.

Slick (2009) follows the eponymous pickpocket as he attempts to defeat a villainous ex-FBI agent named Edith who is obsessed with flip-flops. She has unconstitutionally in-depth files on lots of people, Slick included, and Slick wants his file destroyed. She also has an evil plan to brainwash people using caramels and turn them into 3-D glasses-wearing slave labor for her flip-flop empire. Having traced her down to Salisbury, West Virginia, he decides to hole up with his Uncle Herb, a theater hermit with a shameful past. He blackmails three people into helping him using things he pickpocketed from them: a zucchini gardener, a muffin chef, and a guy obsessed with light bulbs. Together, they defeat the villain, and with his new friends' help, Slick begins to rethink his identity.

Vector (2010) is a Darker and Edgier turn in the Tracy Moore Productions catalog. A Super OCD mailman becomes suspicious when he finds a bio lab on his route. When the people on his route become sick, he must balance his family and his investigation as he uncovers horrific evidence connected to a bioterrorist.

{{creatortropes}} {{quote|Felix: Like I was saying, young chap, if you are ever galloping through the woods and you see a smallish girl picking her nose with a large twig, do you (A) put a pot on your head and you look like Johnny Appleseed and really deep down, believing it inside, or (B) book the nearest flight to the middle of the Pacific Ocean, or maybe even (C) throw on some pajamas that have bamboo print on them, only to be mauled by a giant koala bear. Robert: Don't you mean panda bears? Because pandas eat bamboo, and koalas actually eat mostly eucalyptus leaves. Felix: My dear boy, you are entirely missing my point. }} {{quote|Fubee: Oh. (Face Palm) Carla: What is it? Fubee: It spells {{spoiler|Fake.}} Carla: Delicious discovery, Fubee. Fubee: Thanks, Mom. }} {{quote|Jeremy: Who are you working for? Slick: (muttering) Get outta here, Jeremy. (full volume) You're gonna talk either way. Jeremy: I thought I was gonna be the bad cop. Slick: You're not gonna be the bad cop; I'm gonna be the bad cop. Jeremy: Well then who's the good cop? Slick: I'm not the good cop! You be the good cop; you're a pansy. Jeremy: I came up with the idea in the first place! Slick: Fine. Then we'll both be the bad cop. Gimme the glasses. (Both don 3D glasses) Jeremy: What's your Social Security Number? Slick: Where were you last Tuesday at 10:27 p.m.? Jeremy: Have you eaten at the new Chinese restaurant on Sixth Street? Slick: If you were to remove a single flavor of Pringles, which one would it be? Jeremy: Have you ever walked a mile with your arms tied behind your back? Slick: Have you ever seen Jeremy tie people's shoelaces together? It's freaky! Slick: (pulling off 3D glasses and getting down on one knee, in a plaintive wail) WHY DID THE YANKEES EVER TRADE FOR A-ROD? }} {{quote|Priscilla: And I whipped out my samurai sword, and I chopped it into a million pieces!
