Twist City

The film was released on November 26, 2008 in the United States and stars Justin Berfield as Evan MacClature, a teen raised by human-shaped white clouds who works at an amusement park in the surreal Twist City. When Caesar Applegate (voiced by Jonah Hill) wins a circus contest and receives the Vanilla Soul Crown grand prize, all of the citizens of Twist City become jealous, even Evan's arch-rival Dean Clerk (voiced by Willem Dafoe), who plans on changing the laws of the city maliciously if he gets his hands on it. With the help of a group of unlikely companions including Beefburger Bason (Rob Paulsen), Four-Story Simeon (Hank Azaria), Mr. Pro Moe (Adam Levine), and Nezzer Cray Chicken (Dan Castellaneta), Evan sets out to end Clerk's shenanigans.
