Donkey Ollie's Christmas in Heaven Review

[@DaimosZ]

As a Christian, I always have a personally tough time to mock cartoons made by fellow Christians but I absolutely loath how many of these cartoons turn out because these people are trying to make a quick buck by trying to make the next best thing to Veggietales so they can get a quick buck and that legitimately bothers me because it feels like they are using the disguise of genuine faith in Jesus as a means of making money off of the good word that could have been instead donated to actual Christian charities and missions works (an issue I also have with modern Veggietales shorts). Glad you reviewed this Bob, stuff like this honestly shouldn't exist

[@yummygoy5138]

You're right, donkey ollie runs on the Boat Angel donation charity.

[@WillieManga]

That's the problem I have too. A lot of religious projects are made to profit off one's beleifs or misinterpret the bible. Prince of Egypt was good, Binding of Isaac was quaint as well as challenging. We need more religious projects like those. But instead there's Gerbert the Jesus Puppet, Bibleman, Gaither's Pond, Joshua and the Promised Land, The Star, Donkey Ollie and all sorts of Prince of Egypt knockoffs. That Creepy Reading and his friends gave 22 reasons why these things tend to suck.

[@autismadventures7686]

I got to say as a converted wiccan with native American christianity mixed in. This cartoon seems rushed and very ugly. I do not mind the 1980's superbook, veggietales, or even Hillsong skits. But even horror movies based on Christian drama can look better! Please people if you want to make a Christian tv show for kids or even adults. Put time, creativity, and heart into it. Maybe even challenge the audience on certain things in social stuff and even in the bible or whatever holy book.

[@gracekim1998]

Agreed

[@Julia-qt5wd]

Veggie tales put humor first and the message second. I think.

Donkey Ollie had haunted most of my late childhood, since my cousins liked it when they were little, so it’s great to finally see someone rip it apart

[@Bobsheaux]

Oooh... I am SO sorry...

[@ruyekahatori3073]

How to fix this: -Donkey Ollie and Farmer John butt heads over several things-Farmer John would like some of Ollie's animals for the pageant, mainly the few that were actually there, and Ollie wants some of his cast to help him get things accurate, which gets in the way of the rehearsals. They constantly argue and try to sabotage the other's things or whatever, then Jesus steps in, reminds them of compromise and teamwork. The two make up and decide they need to work together to put on the best play. Rupert tries to do all the fancy work and essential bribery, but they teach him that thats not what the season is about. Ollie gets mad about the animals showboating, but he learns that he cant always have his way and the animals apologize for losing focus, and he apologizes for being so harsh. They put on the show with accuracy, but their own creative spins (a song here or there, maybe a joke? who knows)

[@caseywilde7931]

And that, my friends, is a true author's work.

[@stlouisrocker100]

Yeah folks, just watch Rankin Bass' Nestor, The Christmas Donkey. At least that has good emotion, decent stop motion animation and is a nice telling of the Nativity story. And it's a better Donkey related cartoon overall.

[@goufr3540]

Compared to most of the CGI crap that is out there, most anything Rankin Bass, especially their stop motion is usually vastly better. Maybe we will see Cricket on the Harte here to.

[@pon2oon]

Remember, marriage is only "'til death do us part"; once you're in Heaven, you're siblings rather than spouses. Jesus even said once that in Heaven "there is neither marriage nor giving in marriage"

[@jackwhitty4938]

[@horse14t]

13:52 I think that's suppose to be a nudge/joke of the line "Til death do we part" that is said when people are getting married.

[@SitaraAleu]

Also, I get that Tiny is supposed to be a cute little caricature of a saber toothed cat, but why does he have ADULT tusks if he's a BABY cat? In the wild, saber toothed cats didn't get their tusks until they were older, the fossil evidence shows this. I also checked out the people behind the charity that made this and apparently, there's a relatively small concentration of them who seem to not believe in prehistory, so if that's the case, why did they even include a creature that, to them, would be considered mythological?

[@crimsondynamo615]

“Where are all the dinosaurs?” Somewhere Ken Hamm is weeping at there being no dinosaurs in heaven.

[@Kahran042]

If Chrono Trigger has taught me nothing else, it's that heaven hates dinosaurs. That's why they're so weak to lightning.

[@cartilaginous.studios8817]

Oh that whole “I’m no longer your wife” bit is because wedding vows are “till death do us part”. So technically there are no married couples in heaven. This comic is still trash.

[@AmishParadise27]

What kind of a story can get you in heaven? Isn't heaven supposed to be a place without conflict? Without conflict, you basically have no stories.

[@pesterjester2752]

Yeah, when a character goes to Heaven and stays there, that should be more like a Happily Ever After sort of thing. After that, the story should end.

[@mackpines]

12:40 Does anyone else think that the doughnut and cupcake which were photoshopped in look absolutely delicious?

[@Tytoalba777]

For the whole "Swamps in Heavan" thing, I can just assume that people, when they go to heaven, would like their new heavenly environment to be like what they had on earth, thus Swamps.

[@98953812]

@16:16 Bobsheaux: the moral of the story is never help anyone. Ever. Kratos: At last, someone who has common sense. Boy, pay close attention to this outrageously dressed man. Atreus/Boy: Yes sir.

[@kaylacolgan]

Yes! New Video! I love watching your videos, Bobsheaux.

[@battlelineshq1799]

I watched this series as a child I seriously tuned in every week just to see the next episode it’s a nostalgic guilty pleasure for me

[@InKY09]

In agreement with Bobsheaux’s End Credits comment, I’m not sure I appreciated a Jesus who habitually hooks fish and regrets not being able to kill and eat them. The thing about John and his wife not being married anymore is something I remember from when I was Christian. I no longer recall the quote, but there’s something in the Bible Christians interpret as meaning there are no familial relationship in heaven - it’s rarely brought up in media though, especially since there’s another Christian passage saying families should mimic the relationship between god and christians, ie. a strong male head with secondary children and women.

[@maggiesheartlove2734]

The Star was a better story about a donkey meeting Jesus. And the animation was more watchable than this nightmare fuel! Seriously, I studied computer animation in college, and freshmen have made better looking animals than this! Btw, I saw the Star with my cousin and... it wasn’t half bad. It was a fun watch, I laughed a couple times, and I enjoyed the interactions between Mary and Jospeh, since they were portrayed as an actual married couple with personality. I’m a Christian myself, and a story writer, so yes I would like to see more well made faith based stories.... this was not one of em. At all. I’ll stick with Prince of Egypt and the Star for now.
