Hi, interesting read! Good points.

Re movies and values, I have just watched “I am Legend” with my wife. NOT a fan of vampire stuff BUT knowing Will Smith was in it and appreciating original book by Richard Matheson made me think ‘this will be done well’… I was really impressed that the film has taken the concept and reworked it excellently.

I love Veggie Tales as an adult. I have been thinking last year (since I adore wordplay) that “Carrots of the Pi-ribbean” would be a neat Veggie Tales title… seems someone else was thinking similarly…

Looking forward to see it! And, good wisches to Vischer – with thankness for frankness…

My three children and their friends were raised on Veggie Tales (along with other Christian materials for kids, yet Veggie Tales being a favorite), and they have become some of the finest young adults serving the Lord God whole-heartedly to this day. No matter what mistakes were made in the handling of the company business, God has used mightily the efforts of the gifted team who produced the series.

May the Lord’s redemption manifest to reconcile the breaches and heal the past for Mr. Vischer and his former employees. On behalf of my family I bless Phil Vischer, and I can’t wait for my future grandbabies to be born so I can share with them and their friends laughs over the delightfully presented Biblical precepts of the Veggie Tales. Meanwhile I and my grown children will probably make a date to see this current movie!

I’m a senior citizen and I look forward to seeing this film

My first exposure to Veggie Tales was “you must be kidding” but since then have enjoyed the characters,themes,stories along with my grand kids. My adult college educated kids also enjoy the productions.

I am in full agreement with Mr Vischer in his approach to “Christian” movies. You will never please all the Christian community, regardless of how you present scriptural truths. God has given this man a real gift and I am happy to view the results.

Though I am eighty, I have enjoyed the Veggie Tale CDs since I got the opportunity to watch them with my grandchildren. I find them very Christian, even when there is no “preaching” there. Trying to live your life the biblical way, love your neighbour, rely on God [as David, Esther, and others did] is a testimony. The world needs Jesus like acts performed by simple people. When and how should children learn to distinguish good from wrong? God bless Vischer and all the makers of his works. I am looking forward to their future films.
