Junior Bloomsberry is the main antagonist in Imagine Entertainment's first animated film Curious George and a cameo antagonist in Image Entertainment's first animated film sequel Curious George 2; Follow that Monkey. He is the only child of Mr. Bloomsberry and has a one-way rivalry with Ted.

He was voiced by David Cross, who portrayed Ian Hawke in the live-action/CGI Alvin and the Chipmunks films, and voiced Minion in Megamind.

Biography[]

At the beginning of the movie, Junior is seen attempting to persuade his father to sign a contract that will have the Bloomsberry Museum torn down when put into effect, which will then have a large multi-level parking lot built in its place - with no daily maximum on the rate for a large profit. Mr. Bloomsberry is dissuaded of this by Ted when he tells the museum owner that they could get a really big new exhibit. Mr. Bloomsberry tells Ted of a large monkey statue in Africa - the Lost Shrine of Zagawa - that he could retrieve, and gives Ted a map. Unfortunately, Junior rips out half of the map while the others aren't looking, and puts a big X on the end to misguide Ted.

Junior is later seen dismayed after overhearing a call between his father and Ted, who claimed to have found something. Ted sends a picture of a miniature version of the shrine to the museum, but the image's angle leads Mr. Bloomsberry to believe it was larger than 40 feet tall. Junior seems to give up on his dream of having a parking lot, and is seen later packing up his parking lot model in his office. He notices that Ted and George had arrived back at the museum, and sneaks out on a ledge between the adjacent windows to eavesdrop. After he hears that the 'shrine' is only three inches tall, he does a small victory dance and falls off the ledge into the bushes.

Junior appears in a press conference that Ted is in after he reveals the 'shrines' true size to Mr. Bloomsberry. Junior tries to guilt trip Ted into revealing the truth to the public after the shrine was promoted. George makes a nearby Apatosaurus skeleton fall apart, and Junior kicks Ted and George out of the museum.

After Ted finds a solution for the shrine problem by magnifying it, Bloomsberry congratulates him and calls him 'the son I never had'. This enrages Junior, who spills his coffee on the magnifier and swiftly gives it to George, as to blame the malfunction of the machine on him. Mr. Bloomsberry finally gives up, and Junior comforts him, still vying for his praise, also causing Ted to break up his friendship with George and the animal control to take him away (Which he called them early in the film).

At the end of the movie, Ted saves George and reunited with him, he and George find the real Shrine of Zagawa, and it stands in the museum. Although disappointed that he didn't get his parking lot, Junior gets a job as a valet at the museum and finds joy in his father finally being proud in him.

In Curious George 2: Follow that Monkey, Junior makes a non-speaking cameo starting his very own new business and scene in a T-Rex costume getting money from a customer.

Video Game[]

Junior only apppers in the level, Museum Mayhem. He knocks on Ted's door asking him did he forget the press conference. Ted said no and Junior told him to get going and the reporters are waiting in the exhibit hall. But after Ted mentions the word "monkey". Junior becomes suspicious and sets off to find George after Ted leaves.

Without Junior seeing him, George uses the air vent to make his way to the mammoth exhibit through the air vent. In the mammoth exhibit, George makes his way to the idol by climbing up the mammoth and pterodactyl. Junior said that he got better things to do and sets of the alarm by turning on the Laser Tech 2000. George makes his way through the lasers and use another air vent to get to the transportation exhibit.

In the transportation exhibit, George makes his way to the train and the second idol by climbing the car and riding the plane. Junior quickly realizes that today is Tuesday and the new Parking Lot Monthly comes out today and heads to his office. He sets on the Laser Tech 3000, but George makes it without setting off and heads to the space exhibit.

The space exhibt is broken and missing a gear and it's in Junior office. George has to rattle each of the three vases to distract Junior then jumps on the pedestal next to Ogg and Grogg and stand like a statues so Junior won't caught him. After 3 distracts, Junior gets frustrated and leaves, so George can go into his office and find the missing gear.

Personality[]

Junior is best described as being very envious at the amount of attention and love that his father gives Ted. While not outright evil, Junior doesn't seem to have any redeeming qualities. He actively antagonizes Ted and seems to love seeing him in emotional turmoil. He's quite good at shifting blame of incidents onto Ted, and even when his father is in a low spot, Junior consistently lets him know that he is his son and that he deserves more attention.
