"Na'vimaniacs" is a scrapped song from the Animaniacs reboot series. It was to be a parody of James Cameron's 2009 film Avatar, named for the film's Na'vi species; and set to the tune of the Animaniacs theme song.

Though scrapped, a completed storyboard reel of the segment with placeholder voices exists via storyboard artist Todd DeJong's Vimeo page.

Description

The song is performed by Yakko, Wakko, and Dot, as they lampoon elements from the Avatar film and stretch the limits of copyright law to get away with their parody.

Lyrics

The Warners:
We are the Na'vimaniacs!
We're best seen in full iMAX
We fly golf carts 'round in tracks
Steven likes we've downed an axe
We're Na'vimaniacs!
Though this place looks like Pandora, here's a pretty good excuse,
The plants look sorta different and the Woodsprite is a goose.
Although the Mushroom Tower, is copyright abuse,
We're so blue, and they can't sue. 'cause this is called fair-use!
We're Na'vimaniacs!
We have hair donned to our backs!
The writing's getting lax, but we're stuffing cash in sacks!
We're Na'viman-ey
Rhyming strain-ey
Dot Warner:
Parody is lazy!
The Warners:
Na'vimaniacs!
Those are the facts!

Trivia

  • Per the Vimeo upload, the segment was at least boarded in 2019.
  • The film's main antagonist, Colonel Miles Quaritch, can be seen chasing the Warners in his Amplified Mobility Platform before his defeat.
  • When Dot sings "Parody is lazy!", Yakko and Wakko point at each other. This is a reference to a frame from "Double Identity," an episode of the 1967 Spider-Man series that has become a popular internet meme.
  • The segment was likely intended for season 2, as the Vimeo upload also includes storyboards from other season 2 segments, namely Christopher Columbusted and A Brief History of History
