VeggieTales Review

Has anyone heard anything about the release date of Huckleberry Larry?

According to Wikipedia it was due out in Spring 2008, but looks like it has been pushed back to July 15, 2008.  That’s a long time since the last one.

IMDB is listing a release date of May 1, 2008 for The Pirates Who Don’t Do Anything: A VeggieTales Movie.

I guess this would make sense, but it makes you wonder what’s going on at Big Idea.  They usually do three videos a year, and Huckleberry was supposed to be pretty much done when the movie came out.

The Gourds Must Be Crazy!

Join five year-old Junior Asparagus and the crew of the U.S.S. Applepies as they boldly go where no vegetable has gone before! Can Junior’s and ship’s engineer Scooter repair the Applepies before a giant meteor smashes it to bits?!? And what about “oddball” crew members, Jimmy and Jerry Gourd? Could they possibly help? This hilarious sci-fi spoof shows kids that “loving your neighbor” means appreciating those who are different instead of making fun.
