Tom and Jerry, covered in slime and popcorn, sit on top of the ruined screen, sharing a stolen soda. Tom lifts the straw to drink. Jerry sips first. Tom shrugs — and they both wave to the cheering crowd.

Next, Jerry leaped onto a trampoline at the Nickelodeon Slime Zone . Tom followed — and both catapulted into a booth selling SpongeBob Krabby Patties. Ketchup and slime went everywhere.

Then came the climax.

“Sorry, folks!” Jerry squeaked. “The movie’s over there.”

No cats or mice were harmed. But MovieCon will never be the same.

Instead of car chases and explosions, the giant screen started projecting from security cameras around the con. The audience booed — until they saw Tom chasing Jerry through the exhibition hall.

Jerry ran into the main theater — the same one where Explosive Pursuit 5 was supposed to be playing. Tom chased him across the seats, over the heads of startled critics, and onto the stage. Jerry grabbed the microphone.

At the annual Animation MovieCon, Tom and Jerry’s endless chase accidentally sabotages the premiere of a big-budget action film — but the audience loves them more than the movie. The Los Angeles Convention Center was packed. It was the final day of MovieCon Animation , and fans dressed as their favorite cartoon characters swarmed the halls. The biggest event of the day: the world premiere of Explosive Pursuit 5 , a live-action blockbuster.
