The film was produced, written and directed by series creators Matt Maiellaro and Dave Willis, and features the voices of Dana Snyder, Carey Means, Willis, Maiellaro, Mike Schatz, Andy Merrill, and C. Martin Croker, with Neil Peart of the Canadian rock band Rush, Bruce Campbell, Tina Fey, Fred Armisen, and Chris Kattan in cameo appearances.

The film centers around Master Shake, Frylock and Meatwad, better known as the Aqua Teens, as they join forces with the Plutonians and the Cybernetic Ghost of Christmas Past from the Future to prevent a piece of exercise equipment from creating destruction, all while the Aqua Teens must puzzle together their existence and search for their creator.

During an interview at the 2005 San Diego Comic-Con, Maiellaro and Snyder stated that rumors of a feature-length film based on Aqua Teen Hunger Force would be made.

The second film, titled Aqua Teen Forever: Plantasm, was released direct-to-video on November 8, 2022, and on HBO Max starting February 8, 2023.

When the Central Intelligence Agency break into his house, Time Lincoln helps the Aqua Teens escape in a wooden rocket ship.

Time Lincoln is shot and the CIA agents become slaves to an African American Kentucky Colonel as punishment for changing history.

The Ghost explains to the two aliens the story of the Insanoflex: the machine, when assembled, will exercise a man into a super-being, who will attract all the women on Earth, leading to a massive inbreeding and the eventual extinction of mankind.

Back on Earth, Frylock finishes re-building the Insanoflex, with a pencil in the screw hole, but he discovers the circuit board is missing.

The robot plays techno music and heads for downtown Philadelphia, all while Carl's strapped-in form is forced to exercise.

The Aqua Teens, the Plutonians and the Ghost, aided by an instructional workout video, find that the Insanoflex can be destroyed using music.

After a failed encounter with MC Pee Pants, reincarnated as a fly, The team have no choice but to have Shake play his music.

Shake poorly plays his original song "Nude Love" on acoustic guitar, forcing the Insanoflex to commit suicide.

Carl, now extremely muscular, leaves with his newly found date, a bodybuilder named Linda, while the group tries to prevent the newly-hatched robots from destroying the city.

In the flashback, Dr. Weird proclaims that the Aqua Teens were created for one purpose: to crash a jet into a brick wall.

Upon entering Africa, Bittle was killed by a lion and the presence of the Aqua Teens scares a tribe of natives.

In an interview at the 2005 San Diego Comic-Con, Dana Snyder and Matt Maiellaro confirmed rumors that there would be a feature-length movie of Aqua Teen Hunger Force.

Note: Carey Means (Frylock) is absent from the skits, sound bites and hidden tracks where the other Aqua Teens can be heard.

The devices turned out to be electronic signs similar to a Lite-Brite that displayed images of the Mooninites Ignignokt and Err giving the finger, and were designed to promote the Aqua Teen Hunger Force television show as part of a guerrilla marketing campaign authorized by Cartoon Network, the cartoon's parent company.

The stunt was, in actuality, yet another one of Adult Swim's annual April Fools' pranks: though the first few minutes of the movie were shown normally, the remainder was shown in a small picture-in-picture box in the bottom left-hand corner, with no sound, over the normal programming and occasional giant pop-ups alerting viewers of its presence, as well as advertising the actual premiere.

The day after the April Fools' joke, Cartoon Network showed another bumper, stating, "Sorry you will still have to pay to actually see the movie.

Eventually, the Adult Swim website let it be known that none of the "endings" were real and presented seven more clips (which were fake as well) throughout the weeks following the film's release.

Warner Home Video released Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie Film for Theaters in a two-disc DVD edition on August 14, 2007.

The website's consensus states: "The non sequitur humor of Aqua Teen Hunger Force will surely appeal to its built-in fanbase, but for the uninitiated, the premise wears thin".

[citation needed] In response to such reviews, a commercial featuring the Mooninites began airing during the Adult Swim block.

The two characters spend the entire commercial insulting a supposedly typical reviewer, "Lionel" of lionellovesmovies.com (the site merely leads back to the movie page).

[21] In a 2010 interview, staff members of Radical Axis confirmed that a sequel was indeed in production, and mentioned the possibility that the film might be made in 3D.

When asked if the film was designed for a theatrical release, a Radical Axis staff member responded yes, but stated: "We're not sure if we have a distributor yet."
