VeggieTales Review
9 years ago
God bless the vegetables!
So, i'm reviewing one of my 'best-of' shows as a kid, VeggieTales, a children's CGI comedy series mixed with elements from our heart-warming bible, additionally mixed with educational values, songs and lessons that are done pretty well.
The series started off with the creation of Larry, formerly known 'Mr. Cuke' and it's very rare short film, 'Mr. Cuke's Screen Test' (1991). In this one, we go over to the kitchen countertop and see a fruit bowl. Then, a cucumber pops and turns his head, witch it revealed to be Larry. He bounces all over the countertop and smiles while he looks at us.
The SoftImage animation from 1993 - 1999 is well done. It's clean, refreshing, and vibrant for it's time. When the show switched to Autodesk Maya in 2000, the animation became more impressive and it added fluidness. The voices are well-recorded. Phil and Mike did a partly good job at voicing the main characters, and Lisa is impressive at voicing Junior. The comedy in every episode is well-paced, and the lessons in every show are very true. The stories in each show sticks true to the original spirit of the Bible and other media's stories. The humor is wry and is for everyone, and the songs, oh my goodness those songs...it's kinda amazing! Fitting to every situation and it's lesson. But, since VeggieTales in the House came...
Overall, the series of videos are entertaining, nostalgic and heartwarming from the original bible and media stories. Well-animated, well-voiced, good concept and design, but, I want y'all to STAY AWAY from the Netfilx series. The Netflix series is bad for you, it tastes like crud, and doesn't have stories from the bible! Skip VeggieTales in the House and put the original ones.
NOTE: I'm working on some attempts and ideas to bring back the original VeggieTales designs, voices, concepts, and it's charm.
RATING:
VeggieTales: 99% A+
VeggieTales in the House: 55% F-
