Did you know the Easter Bunny and his minions toil all year on Easter Island (groan) to create eggs that he delivers each spring in an egg-shaped sleigh pulled by flocks of baby chicks? Neither did I. Can’t Santa Claus sue? Or that Easter Bunnies can defecate jellybeans? Who thinks up this poop? “Plot” has the Easter Bunny’s rebellious animated son (voice by Russell Brand) escaping to LA to become a drummer and hooking up with a jarringly miscast James Marsden, who has his own disapproving father issues (the actor’s 38!). All this and David Hasselhoff, too. For easily entertained toddlers.
