4:20 "I see dorbees! Why don't they go awaaaay~!" "Wait what." 4:53 "Maybe they don't really mean it." "We really mean it! Why don't they gooooooo aaawwwwaaay~!" "Well, FUCK." That moment when the critique of the show was infinitely funnier than the actual show.
littleblueclovers In an intentional way. The cartoon is just subliminally funny on account of the incompitence of the writers. Like whith the couch 'tato keeps changing the channel. "We really need to have a discussion about this... WE DON'T NEED YOU HERE! YOU CAN GO HOME!"
Dylan Kennedy The California Raisins. On the subject of the California Raisins, there were created by Will Vinton, the same guy who created the M&M's spokes candies.
+the__wolf A Christian cartoon about talking fruit. From what I remembered, the fruits would re-enact bible stories, and they give morals and life lessons at the end.
Do you mean the one where the kids wander onto a beach full of land mines? That's not real. It's a parody PSA made by two Australian comedians as part of a very elaborate joke (they even made a fake website for the foundation they claimed the PSA was for). It gets mistaken for genuine by a lot of people because it's so well made (and even the creators don't want to fully admit it to keep the gag going).
I get the Jimmy Hoffa joke. The sign says: "This way to Jimmy Hoffa" basically meaning: "This way to be lost forever" as Hoffa's body was never found. Kind of a dark joke to put in a Christian kid's cartoon. The Dorbee is distracted by the Astroball, escaping death.
Owen Longwell I dunno... Usually I can see ways to redeem a animated show but here I just can't! Maybe it's because it's so ugly I can't bring myself to peek at it for too long...
When I first saw it I legitimately thought it was some sort of shitpost. I thought someone made it to be purposefully bad. I thought it was a silly joke and that was it.
What baffles me is that they managed to make the squirrels look fairly decent... yet they stuck with the mutant-peas as the main characters? Why didn't they just create a cast of basic animals, and then use the rest of the budget to give better expressions to one main character? Like, maybe a bunch of woodland critters, with a mouse or something small as the main character, teaching the moral lessons? The music's not bad, and they clearly spent a lot of time (if not money) on this... >sigh
@@harrisonmissell1716 Thank you, and yes! King cheetahs are my favorite animal, but everyone thought I was a dude when I used the name 'King' at first.
I like this idea, but how many shows about animals are out there already? As much as I hate to say it, the Dorbees are... Rather unique. They sorta look like M&Ms or whatever but you couldn't mistake them from being in much else. It's sort of like how Splatoon was going to be a Mario game but they created new characters because they wanted a new IP.
"We open up on what appears to be a southern country farm... or not. and away we go." " Hey, buddy. My eyes are up here. Why are you look at my right hand? Ignore the knife for a while." (Everyone who made it that far paused, and glanced at their right hand.) Oh, Mr. Enter. How are you so Mr.Enter? Some of your best lines.
You said on DeviantArt that this was a cheaply made CG show from the 90s, so I tried to imagine the worst-looking animation possible. And even then, I had a freaking heart attack when I saw the thumbnail.
The sad thing is, Veggietales was started specifically BECAUSE the company was small and couldn't afford to animate limbs. They knew their limitations and they worked with them. We have a phrase in the South for things like Dorbees. "Oh, bless your hearts..."
I've been binge-watching his videos and at this point I think I need to go watch a Disney movie trailer or something to remember what good animation looks like again.
Yeah, if it were in a more competent production, that song could've actually been pretty good. Lyrics are still simple, but the vocals and music sound great.
yup, the first versions of photoshop originally came out in 1988, under the name Image Pro. but even before its release adobe had applications like illustrator 88. many of the adobe suite applications like premiere and dreamweaver were in their first forms in the 90s, so in 1998 photoshop wasn't new. (which makes their graphic design job even sadder lmfao)
Okay, that's not fair. By that point, Big Idea had released six other videos prior to the 'Fib from Outer Space'. They had some practice under their belts. However, 'Where's God When I'm S-s-scared!?' was released in 1993 (according to Wikipedia). Yeah, the animation isn't great, but it's honestly way better than 'Dorbees' (even if the second short has some really questionable backgrounds).
IIRC, the only reason VeggieTales uses produce is because it was far easier to render and animate; you draw a green sphere and call it a pea, who's gonna argue?
I actually love the pre-maya (like the first 12 or so episodes) era of veggietales. It had a unique charm and the humor was surprisingly great for a kids Christian show
I have to say, Delta's voice actor is pretty much the only salvageable thing in this train wreck. He plays the role of "wise Southern grandpa" pretty well with the material he's given.
I am a Christian so call me biased, but Veggietales is one of the cutest cartoons ever and I'd love to see you do a review of it sometime! I appreciate that you mentioned Veggietales in this episode as it was one of my favorites growing up.
Veggie Tales was a big part of my childhood. It's enjoyable for both kids and grown-ups; I know that because my parents used to like watching it with me when I was a kid. For something that initially didn't have a big budget, Veggie Tales sure had a high level of quality to it in animation, writing, music, character design, voice acting, etc. That's why it has lasted so long; thank goodness the original creators are back at Big Idea and giving it a reboot.
@@misterninetyseven2898 you don't need a lot of money to write or act well. You need it for animation and voice acting. This is the epitome of what happens with a small budget and not caring or being inept about your writing. Take away the bad writing and it might have worked since some of the best shows ever, eg Invader Zim and Veggie Tales, have had shit animation. The former was colourful and all but it wasn't very good when it came to fluid motion for the first series.
I guess the Mr. Poe and Yogul segment is supposed to be like Silly Songs with Larry, as a sort of middle segment. Unfortunately, it's more like The Forgive-o-matic.
They seem to miss the point, which was that the Silly Songs were short and simple, basically comic relief in between a more serious story. Rack Shack and Benny had the characters being executed for refusing to bow down to a kid-friendly interpretation of a golden calf, so you throw that in to easy the tension.
Well, the Forgive-O-Matic wasn't too long, it got to the point, and it was even relevant to the moral of the episode (God Wants Me to Forgive Them). At the same time it was a hilarious parody of Ron Popeil infomercials. Silly Songs with Larry was a short bit of comic relief thrown in between the two main segments or as a break in a full episode story. Even though Silly Songs was off topic, it still worked because it wasn't too long and it was actually funny; serving its purpose as comedy relief. Mr. Poe and Yogul? 6 minutes of incoherent nonsense.
Nah, this is Silent Hill rules. Your nightmares are your new reality. Also, if you go driving, have your headlights on because the mist never goes away.
Where the audio was cut off, Jack said: "Ya gotta fight! WIN! WIN! WIN! WIN!" I know this because........ (sigh) I had to watch this thing as a child and it'd be on.... every....sunday...morning on the christian T.V channel.
That fanfare at the beginning is from a composition entitled "Also Sprach Zarathustra". Zarathustra is the name of the founder of Zoroastrianism, a religion out of ancient Persia. The title comes from a book written by Friedrich Nietzsche - the source of the quote "God is dead. God remains dead. And we have killed him." I hope Benjamin Gaither is ashamed of this travesty. I certainly am.
Does anyone else think that the way they move around is like when you played Super Smash Brothers on the Game Cube and you would just spastically move the yellow control stick to make the trophies move around?
Only they have more life to them. Dispite the dorbees are less static than those figurines, they are somehow more dead inside. The smash bros trophies were awesome.
"Dorbees, why don't they go away?" Well, about that, maybe halfway through production, the creators realized that this film was so poorly animated that it came off as creepy to even them! So what if they put that line in the theme song to symbolize their regret in making this? To me, that would make a lot of sense!
Or maybe they're just reading the viewer's mind! "Why don't they go away?" Seriously, that's probably what any knowledgeable audience is thinking when they look at these spheres!
It's stuff like this that gives Christian entertainment its bad reputation. For everything that is at least competently put together, or even produced with some kind of quality, there's at least five shows like this.
This isn't Comic Sans. It's obviously isn't Comic Sans here. Font that creators used maybe look something similar to Comic Sans, but not even THAT similar to mix them up. Except part with Mr. Poe, this is Comic Sans indeed.
This was made in the 90s, there was not much love for comic sans back then. Nothing to cash in on really, it was just a basic font you got with windows 95 and that people thought was not serious enough and argued that it was overused at the time. It would have been a lazy choice for a font, but nothing you'd want to use for its public appeal. +Nikki Babaii.
Religion is fine. It's great. Hell, I'm a theist. But please, just stop forcing religion and religious messages into animation if you can't do it well. Veggie Tales is amazing, and Prince of Egypt is fantastic too. Dorbee's is... Not. It's really not.
Same goes for video games; religion can be fine in a video game as long as it's not forcing a message. I loved the Binding of Isaac mostly because it's about killing demons in a dungeon crawler. Dante's Inferno was fine; not great, but pretty enjoyable. Catechumen, Left Behind Eternal Forces and most content from the game company Wisdom Tree, which is the Bible version of Color Dreams, was crap and sometimes was too preachy. Games inspired or based off the Bible can be done right, they just need to focus on being entertaining. For example, I love Devil May Cry and the third game has a Cain and Abel type conflict in it.
The reason Prince of Egypt works is because it works as an adventure movie and change enjoyable to even the most vehement "fuck religion" kinda person. This fails because everything aside from the music is fucking trash and even then the lyrics are atrocious.
@not a red spy Huh my apologies mr Engineer for being so presumptuous of you just because of your great charm and southern demeanor you where Catholic. ‘Shakes my head’ how silly and Jack (donkey) of me
the "Mr. Poe and Yogul" thing seems like it was meant to be a ripoff of the way Vegitales would switch from its story to the characters singing "silly songs"... except Vegitales didn't have 2 simultaneous storylines and 2 framing devices and never let it go on for 6 minutes at a time...
The first three episodes Veggie Tales did have two stories, though they had the good sense to do them one after the other rather than running both at once and they did a job of keeping both stories on theme. Also while this use the silly bit as a random bit of crazy, Silly Songs with Larry was used as an act break. But again, Veggie Tales was/is made by people that know what they are doing.
They even did that later on with shows like Lyle the Kindly Viking, A Snoodle's Tale, Sumo of the Opera, Duke and the Great Pie War, Minnesota Cuke, and so on. Thing is, they've all been doing two stories, yet they did them one after the other. Hell, Sumo did 3 shorts.
6 years... 6 FUCKING YEARS... since i first saw this video when it came out... and these... THINGS... *They still haunt my dreams...* Why John... *WHY MUST YOU MAKE ME SUFFER WITH THESE THINGS!?!?!?*
You kidding? this is friggan amazing! You know those kind of shows that are so bad they're good? this is one of those. Its Absolutely pants on head retarded animation wise and I cant stop laughing
+Ossy ReRe I definitely agree and love DHMIS, the animation style in the thumbnail just reminded me of it to the point I thought it might be a DHMIS rip-off when I clicked on the review.
These are observations, not complaints. And these observations on actions done by those who are told, by Scripture, not to love the world, or anything of the world, is the problem.
Oh my god..... This... This is the WORST animation I've EVER SEEN. And I've seen Little Panda Fighter and What's Up. Not even crappy animations on RU-vid. Compared to this, those are masterpieces.
Good news: I think I've figured out the reason for the Mr. Poe and Yogel interruption! It's probably supposed to mirror "Silly Songs with Larry" from Veggie Tales, the musical skits in the middle of most episodes. Instead of songs, though, they borrowed the superhero theme from Larryboy. I would actually recommend watching the Mr. Poe and Yogel bit. It's pretty funny IMO.
Holy shit. I think I get it now. "Why don't they just go away"...The backwards morals. IT ALL MAKES SENSE!!! We as the audience are SUPPOSED to not listen to the Dorbees! That explains the strange tag line and the strange lessons! They're supposed to be bad! The creators were just trying to be clever!
6-year-old Mr. Enter: Look, Mommy, I made a drawing! Mr. Enter's mom: Oh, that's beautiful, Johnny! *Mr. Enter walks away* Mr. Enter's mom: I just saw Dorbees. Anything looks beautiful in comparison.
@@shawnfields2757 I get what you're coming from, wouldn't call those shows ugly, though. That was made in response to Mr. Enter's line talking about how he could've made something that looked better than Dorbees when he was six.
Isobel Miller I know. But those shows aren't traditionally ugly. just ruining what made those things great. like removing a beloved character, making 4 stereotypes instead of ghostbusting heroes, or making superheroes who knew when to take things seriously into a bunch of toddlers who like to ruin their friends futures or babble about waffles for 11 minutes.
Isobel Miller I'm not disagreeing with you man, but I'm just saying, after watching Silent Hill's take on the Veggietales, ANY 1 of those 3 things would sound better. you don't have to agree with me, it's just an opinion dude. But, I do like how your first comment went though. about how Mr Enter could make anything better than this when he was 6. I think I went off course somewhere. thanks for the help. at least you made the right decision, dude.
Shark Tale? Wasn't that the movie where they basically copy/pasted Will Smith's face (and those of other actors) onto a CGI fish in an attempt to get some of Finding Nemo's success?
