Jonah (2002)

“Jonah” is the first full-length feature film produced by Big Idea, and was the dream of Phil Vischer from the inception of the company. To date, it is the only feature film released and now that Phil no longer owns Big Idea, who knows if there will be another. But we’ll take what we can get when we can get it. Bob the Tomato is driving a busload of kids to a concert starring Twippo, their favorite children’s song artist. Laura Carrot won the golden ticket and will get to meet Twippo, and she’s having a marvelous time rubbing it … Continue reading →

Josh and the Big Wall (2002)

“Josh and the Big Wall” is the movie that started it all for the Pinkston family. That’s right; it’s the movie my mom brought home from Virginia, babbling about produce all the way. Once I saw it, I started babbling about produce too. You might say, we now speak celery. This VeggieTales video tells us the story of Joshua (Larry the Cucumber) the man who was chosen to be prophet upon the death of Moses. Moses had led the children of Israel out of Egypt and through the wilderness, but he died before they actually entered the Promised Land. It … Continue reading →

Scripture Study: 1 Nephi 13:30-35

Nephi is having a vision which details the fate of his seed and that of his brethren. He has seen the coming of the Bible and of Christopher Columbus to the Americas, and now he is seeing the rising up of America and the growth of the nation. 30. Nevertheless, thou beholdest that the Gentiles who have gone forth out of captivity, and have been lifted up by the power of God above all other nations, upon the face of the land which is choice above all other lands, which is the land that the Lord God hath covenanted with … Continue reading →

VeggieTales: A Snoodle’s Tale (2004)

We’re huge Veggie fans at my house, and my kids were delighted when I brought home “A Snoodle’s Tale.” We’ve never seen it before, and our anticipation was not wasted. We really liked it. We start the show with Bob, who is excited to welcome Larry home from Danish Immersion Camp. But when Larry’s bus arrives, he confesses that he only attended Danish Camp for one day – then he got lost and ended up at Overdone British Literary Adaptations Camp across the lake. But not to worry – he came home with a great idea for a story, just … Continue reading →

An Easter Carol (2004)

I don’t know what’s up with the Nezzar family, but they seem to be absolutely obsessed with owning factories. First we had the Nezzar chocolate factory, then the Nezzar toy factory, and now, in “An Easter Carol,” we have the Nezzar Easter egg factory. Maybe the Nezzars hope that if they keep trying, they’ll finally get it right. “An Easter Carol” is the sequel to “The Star of Christmas.” Again we have the characters Millward and Cavis, this time working for Mr. Nezzar in his Easter egg factory in the hopes of paying him back for the theater they burned … Continue reading →

Lyle the Kindly Viking (2001)

Archibald Asparagus is a bit of a loner on the VeggieTales set. It seems that he is the only vegetable with a strong sense of the aesthetic, that no one else can understand art and literature. It’s his cross to bear. In an attempt to inject some culture into the Veggietales video series, he asks for permission to be in charge of just one episode, which Bob grants him, but not without misgivings. Archibald immediately redecorates the set to look like an old English library, and settles down in an easy chair to narrate the first tale, which was supposed … Continue reading →

Madame Blueberry (1998)

In this installment of the VeggieTales movie series, we meet Madame Blueberry. She’s a blueberry, obviously, and she lives in a beautiful home high in a tree. She’s feeling very disconsolate, however – all of her neighbors have things she doesn’t have, and it’s making her blue. Her good friends Bob and Larry try to tell her how blessed she is, but she’s not in the mood to listen. If she doesn’t have everything she wants, she just knows she’ll never be happy. A new store is being built down the road. Called “StuffMart,” it has everything! Even if you … Continue reading →
