Another winning video from the VeggieTales folk. To teach Larry the Cucumber about self-esteem, Bob the Tomato tells the story, slightly renamed, of David and Goliath. Jr. Asparagus plays the young man who wants to prove himself and will face the towering pickle. These adorable tales, brightly animated and containing bouncy songs, teach Christian-lite values in an entertaining way. Telling a single story (instead of the normal two), this 30-minute video goes on a bit too long, but it does contain the funniest entry in the "Silly Songs with Larry" series: Love My Lips. --Doug Thomas

Description

Have you ever felt too small to do a really big job? That's what a little shepherd boy named Dave feels when his big brothers head off to defend their country, leaving Dave behind with the sheep. "Big people do big things, and little people do little things,"they tell him. They're in for a surprise, however, when they find out their foe is much bigger than they thought! This telling of the classic biblical story of David and Goliath teaches kids that "with God, all things are possible." It makes no difference whether you're 9-feet tall or 2-feet tall -- with God's help, even little guys can do big things!

Can Bob the Builder tear his attention from his talking machines long enough to hammer out four animal misadventures and still keep kids ages 2 to 5 tuned in? Yes, he can! Pets in a Pickle is proof. Pilchard, mewing mainstay around Bob's office, picks up major billing in this 45-minute feature, pawing her way into two titles. In "Pilchard in a Pickle," Wendy worries when the blue-furred tabby turns up missing at breakfast. Come quitting time, she still hasn't surfaced. Tears get to trickling, but it's wasted water, as it turns out. Pilchard, of course, is the perfect size for getting scooped up and shuttled to the worksite. In "Farmer Pickle's Pigpen," Pilchard passes the friskiness baton to Scrufty the dog, a bit player in a mass miscommunication involving a lost cell phone and an abandoned batch of guinea pigs. Before you can bulldoze a Claymation building, Pilchard's back in action in "Pilchard Goes Fishing." Goldfish Fin, flung into a bucket while Wendy scrubs his tank, wants to get his gills back in gear, but Wendy's sidetracked when Muck the Truck bashes into the carport. Leave it to tabby to direct her attention back to the displaced fish. In the final episode, "Roley's Tortoise," it's a near catastrophe when steamroller Roley recognizes a slow-moving creature in his path; once he's out of harm's way, Tommy, rascally pet to townswoman Mrs. Potts, really comes out of his shell by hopping aboard Farmer Pickle's lettuce-loaded trailer for a gorge-fest. In the end, all wrongs are repaired, the requisite Bob the Builder result. Helping hands and handy hands are what cement this ever-so-friendly series. That this feature is spiked with four bonus mini-episodes makes an already likable Bob marathon ever more so. --Tammy La Gorce

Pretty cute video.......2004-09-15

This is a pretty cute video. It's basically about Pilchard and Tommy the Tortoise so it definitely drags a little. My little one got ancy before it was over which is very unusual. We love Bob in our house but really, this one could have used a little pick-me-up in the writing department. It was a great idea, but it definitely needs expanded and reworked.

Delightful.......2004-07-22

Bright, beautiful animation, sweetly adorable pets, and valuable lessons about friendship and responsiblity are found in "Bob the Builder: Pets in a Pickle". This winning entry in the "Bob the Builder" series is terrific for kids and has enough charm and appeal that even adults can enjoy it.

"Bob the Builder: Pets in a Pickle" is a delightful addition to anyone's DVD collection.

My kid is a huge fan.......2003-03-28

My two-year-old absolutely adores Bob the Builder. We play together frequently with his BTB toys and vehicles, recreating scenes from the videos or inventing new situations. The videos in general are excellent, but this is my personal favorite. The stories are fairly complex for a 2-year-old but deeply engaging. ("Can We Fix It?" is also excellect.) Usually we watch it together and comment on what's happening, but it's also valuable that he's happy to watch it by himself so that I can get some quiet time to feed the baby or put her to sleep (my wife is often out in the evenings). No harm in letting your child watch some wholesome programming on his own so long as you don't let him overdo it. I guess "A Viewer from France" would have to have a child to understand this.

In response to the Frog below.......2003-03-11

So, there are a number of us out here in the real world who thank the lord for a few minutes to clean up the kitchen while our youngster watches Bob the Builder. Sure, he's a tool getting walked on by Wendy and the gang--but hey, he also is eternally positive and a decent role model. Besides, thetype of parent that selects Bob for their children will most likely spend time with our children far outweighs the amount of time spent in front of the tellie. You obviously don't have children

In responce to "2.5 yr./t,v,.......2003-02-28

As amazing as it may seem, some of us are in a situation where it is just us and the baby. For example, a person's husband might work evenings and they work days. A "Wiggles tape" as my son(18 months)calls them could be what allows me to "cook a bite". Those are my son's words, not mine. Congratulations, I am so impressed that you can stay home with your child. I would love it if I could do that, but in order to do that, I would have to change some things that directly impact him. As it happens, I am afforded enough opportunities to take off that he gets to spend an entire day with "Momma" at least twice a month. He still gets to maintain his standard of living.

The shaded face of a mysterious stranger fills the screen as a gunslinger enters the saloon deep in the background. A bright but plaintive trumpet moans out a melody to the accompaniment of a strumming guitar. The stranger drops his shot glass and fires, catching the drink before it hits the floor. Ah, the operatic excess of the spaghetti Western... But wait, is that Emilio Estevez hiding under that Spanish brim? Gene Quintano's made-for-cable homage to the mercenary Westerns of Sergio Leone and his ilk doesn't have the wide screen, the Spanish deserts, or the magnetic, squinting presence of Clint Eastwood (Estevez is a poor substitute by any standard), but his dusty plains and cinematic swagger make for a fun little genre picture. Borrowing story elements from A Fistful of Dollars, For a Few Dollars More, and The Good, The Bad and the Ugly (among others), Quintano tosses bounty hunters, treasure hunters, renegade soldiers, and a posse out for revenge into a busy tale of good and evil in the American Southwest. Quintano soon tosses the measured pacing of Leone for a rat-a-tat-tat narrative sparkled with trappings of John Woo: flying bodies in slow motion, unending hails of bullets pouring through six-shooters, and a one-man killing machine taking on small armies single-handedly. It won't replace the Eastwood-Leone classics, but it's a surprisingly fun tribute that strikes just the right balance between reverence and grandiloquence. --Sean Axmaker

Dinosaur

ASIN: B000094FGH
Release Date: 2003-06-03

Amazon.com

The animated Dinosaur Island cleverly turns a television trend inside out with the story of four teens sent to the Amazon to compete in a Survivor-like reality TV series, but forced to cooperate when they encounter dinosaurs and prehistoric, proto-humans. After their jet crashes in an unexplored region of the enormous forest, the kids soon discover a large pocket of arrested (evolutionary) development. Chased by Pterodactyls, preyed upon by Raptors, and threatened by at least one angry Stegosaurus mom (after an effort to dine upon one of her eggs), the adolescent heroes begin to live by their wits without the benefits of televised celebrity. The script isn't pure sci-fi hype: At least one of the characters offers some educational touchstones about the great lizards as well as ancient stages of human development. Mostly, however, this is just a fun family movie. --Tom Keogh

Dave Bogue founded Finish Line Ministries in 1992 and has traveled the country and the world preaching the message of revival in churches, at conferences, crusades, camps, and retreats. Dave is a powerful communicator with the ability to challenge and encourage Christians everywhere to walk in obedience to God's Word. For ten years, the Pickle Pickin' message has been a favorite among most audiences. The story revolves around Dave's experience as a junior high boy forced to spend his vacation helping his cousins pick cucumbers in rural Kentucky. Dave is a masterful storyteller who has the ability to weave his personal (often humorous) experiences and the truth of God's Word into a message that cuts to the heart of man's spiritual condition. The Pickle Pickin' message does this and challenges us to be out in the harvest field sharing our faith with people who do not know Christ. Shot on location in Corbin, Kentucky, this TV quality video includes interviews, re-enactments, challenge from Scripture, and the powerful testimony of a family who understood what it meant to reach their town for Christ.
