Regular Show: The Movie is an animated movie based on Regular Show. It aired on Cartoon Network first on November 25, 2015.

The movie premiered on August 14, 2015 at the Downtown Independent in Los Angeles, where it screened for a week.

The movie is dedicated to Christine Cavanaugh, who was best known for voicing Chuckie Finster from the Nickelodeon series, Rugrats, and Dexter from the Cartoon Network series, Dexter's Laboratory.

Production
The movie was confirmed in the Cartoon Network 2015 Upfront in February. Its a feature length film and was set to be released during November 2015.

The 68-minute animated feature became available for digital download on September 1 on electronic sell-through platforms (iTunes, Google Play, Amazon Instant Video, Xbox, Playstation, VUDU and others). The DVD release was scheduled for October 13, but bonus content will be available in both the digital download version and DVD.

Synopsis
After a high school lab experiment goes horribly wrong, and accidentally creating a “Timenado, the universe is on the verge of being destroyed and it’s up to Mordecai and Rigby to go back in time and make the things right, battle an evil volleyball coach in order to save the universe — and their friendship.

Plot
Future

Rigby leads a rebellion squadrent (consisting of Benson, Skips, Hi-Five Ghost, Muscle Man, and Pops) against an evil cyborg named Mr. Ross and his army when he is erasing time. When Rigby and his team reach Ross himself, he reveals himself to be in possession of a weapon, the future version of Mordecai, who is a cyborg himself and has discovered a transgression Rigby did to him in the past and attempts to kill him. When the team get incapaticated, Benson sacrifices himself in order for Rigby to get to a space ship/time-machine to head to the past to stop the chaos. Just as Rigby is about to travel back in time, Mordecai shows up and shoots Rigby when the latter hits the time travel button.

Present

In the present Mordecai and Rigby barely keep themselves from being fired when they run late for work. When the space ship from the future shows up and crashes into the ground, future Rigby appearsand tells the employees that when Mordecai and Rigby were in high school, they created a time machine that backfired and destroyed, but created a tornado called the "Timenado", and that they got expelled for blowing up the science lab. Also, the future Rigby reveals that Mordecai shot him, shocking the park residences that Mordecai and Rigby have receded their relationship. Then future Rigby tells his younger self to not do the same mistake he did before he died

Back in the house, the guys ponder over what could have caused Mordecai and Rigby's breakup as friends and they conclude that they would just have to go with the plan and head back to the past to set things right. After preparing, they board future Rigby's time ship and head back 4 years earlier while Mordecai and Rigby were still in high school.

Past

The group manage to get to the past (6 years in to be exact) but wind up damaging the engines in the process. Skips, Muscle Man and High Five Ghost stay behind to fix the ship while Benson and Pops follow Mordecai and Rigby in finding the time machine. They succeed in slipping in but are forced to split up when they confronted by the volleyball team. With no other options, Mordecai and Rigby are forced to get help from their past selves, who have access to the science lab because Mr Ross, who was feuding with Rigby after his antics cost the team the championship, was forced by Principal Dean to allow Rigby to do an extra credit assignment in order to pass. The extra credit assignment was the time machine Mr. Ross was creating. He was creating it for two reasons: go back in time and win the volleyball state championship and to "get revenge". After successfully convincing past Rigby to create a model volcano instead, the past selves leave the lab, giving the present pair enough time to destroy the time machine. Pops and Benson arrive late to the carnage, all beaten and bruised after their volleyball jock encounter.

The group, assuming the work was over, head back to spaceship/time machine only to find the repairs stalled due to an encounter with Muscle Man and High Five Ghost's past selves. Complicating matters further is that temporal ruptures begin appearing just as the repairs are finished. Rigby, who had slipped away earlier, alerts them to the fact that past Mordecai and Rigby are heading to the high school to finish a second time machine Mr Ross planted. The employees race back to the science lab but are quickly incapacitated by Mr Ross and future Mordecai, allowing past Mordecai and Rigby to botch the time machine and create the Timenado. Mr Ross then forces Rigby to admit the truth: he never got into College U but Mordecai did and he faked Mordecai's rejection letter in order to maintain their friendship. Mr Ross then tries to kill Mordecai in the confusion, but future Mordecai intervenes, taking a heavy wound and forcing Mr Ross to retreat.

Upset over the duplicity, Mordecai angrily ends his friendship with Rigby, forcing Rigby to run off with the spaceship/ time machine. Before dying, future Mordecai gives his present version his ship (which is also a time machine) and tells him to patch things up, saying what Rigby did was no excuse to side with Ross. As the group tries to rebound, a distress call from future Gene the Vending Machine prompts them to help out. Meanwhile, after a failed suicide attempt to drive into the sun, Rigby encounters Father Time, who is falling apart due to the Timenado, and is convinced to apologize to Mordecai. Rigby heads to the future and races back to the Timenado but gets intercepted along with Mordecai by Mr Ross at the crystal core. With Techmo's help, the duo manage to decapitate Ross and, after Rigby and Mordecai repair their friendship, destroying the Timenado. They later convince past Rigby to apologize to past Mr Ross before he's arrested, thus ending the issues between them and altering the future.

Back in the present, Mordecai and Rigby agree that, despite how cool their future selves turned out, they won't let their friendship degrade to trying to kill each other, thus erasing their future selves from the timeline. The next day, as Benson catches them away from the park, the pair race back in the spaceship/ time machine with Rigby saying they'll "never be late again".
