Sadly Over-hyped
best movie i've ever seen.
A story that's too fascinating to pass by...
Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
This cartoon was hilarious for kids and adults. Sadly it played maybe 3 yrs straight. It's hosted by 2 funny dinosaurs. Think Abott and Costello. Real treat and now on DVD! It has the California raisins singing songs. It has the camels who walked with the 3 wise men singing songs like the Temptations and bobbin' their heads, LOL! The silly dinosaur sings, "Here we go a WAFFLING" and annoys the other dinosaur by not singing right! They also have a Halloween and Easter one too. They are all on one DVD. This is great work of Will Vinton. If you have a sense of humor, you will enjoy this cartoon as an adult as well. I like to see if any other members remember this cartoon!!
All the songs on this show are great I really like the Singing Camels that are in the first song and I like how the last song has the California rasins! I have an old tape from when this aired on TV and my family can not go a single year without playing it because my dad can not get enough out of those Camels! I wish they would have this available on DVD at stores like Wal-Mart so it will be easier to get them when the old video tapes wear out.Involving that bell ringing thing I like how that conductor uses a sling shot to make that one bell hit the right note! i also like how those two walruses are ice skating and using penguins as bowling pins when they skate!Those things are the funny things that you will get a laugh out of on this show!
This is a must-see-movie in our household. The clamation wonderfully animates classic Christmas Carols. It is full of humor and it enjoyable for all ages. We wore our tape into oblivion and it took me forever to find another copy.
This is one of the great Christmas specials of all time. Our dinosaur hosts, Rex and Herb, take us through six "music videos" of different Christmas carols. Singing camels bring us "We Three Kings", Quasimodo conducts a symphony of living bells, one of whom just can't quite get it right, for "The Carol of the Bells", and there's much more.The humour is clever and cute, and as always, the animation is top-notch. Really revels in the fun of Christmas. I recommend it to anyone who loves the Christmas season and good animation.
