Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs

==Plot== Imagine living on an island in the middle of the Atlantic where the main catch of the day is sardines. As a result, the economy is reliant on this fish so when people stop eating them and the canning plant shuts down what are you going to do? Flint Lockwood has lived in the island’s main town of Chewandswallow all his life, and ever since he was a small child, he has wanted to be an inventor.
