Ready Jet Go! 10th Anniversary Week | Day 3: Favorite Song

This special had so many Propulsean moments for no reason. There's a lot of tender and important scenes between the two of them. You could even make the argument that their relationship is the core of the movie.

First, Sean doesn't want to go to Bortron 7 at first, but Jet persuades him through the 'power of song.' A little while later, Sean has a 'dream' of sorts where he and Jet sing the most iconic song of the movie - and one of the most iconic songs of the show in general - There's No Planet Like My Planet. It's so nice, that they did a reprise of it at the end of the movie. Everything from the melody, to the lyrics, to the animation in this scene is wonderful.

The color palette in this scene just so happens to look like the bi flag. This is very obviously a deliberate choice. Bortron 7 is red/orange, not pink, and Earth is blue, not purple, but they used those colors anyway.

Also, before the song starts, the Mothership goes into Interstellar Superdrive, which is rainbow-colored. Coincidence? I think not!

And the song itself is how Earth is lovely, but Bortron 7 might be nice too, and how they're very different but also similar. This ties into the movie's overall theme about Earth. Despite it taking place on Bortron 7, Jet and the gang have to find a way to save the presentation so the Propulsions can stay on Earth. They decide to make it about how Earth is full of water. So, the song, in addition to being a great Propulsean moment, is thematically relevant.
