Political correct poison, March 18, 2007
This review is from: Davey and Goliath's Snowboard Christmas (DVD)
I grew up on Davey and Goliath and still enjoy the old episodes. I was looking forward to a new installment to the series but was greatly disappointed once I began watching.
I am no fan of political correctness (leftist propaganda/indoctrination) and it was a great letdown that the Clokey family and the Lutheran Church succumbed to this poison to society.
Why can't Christians have their own holiday? Muslims and Jews have theirs, and I can't remember the last time a Muslim or Jew made me, a Christian feel inclusive of Ramadan or Hannuka.
Anyway, the animation is topnotch, but the message is garbage. Pass this one by if you're looking for a good ol D&G Christmas message. If that is what you are looking for, then watch "Christmas Lost and Found". All your kids will get out of a "Snowboard Christmas" is feeling guilty for being a Christian....and maybe that is the intent.

A wonderful revisit to old friends, with a great message, June 4, 2008
This review is from: Davey and Goliath's Snowboard Christmas (DVD)
After a long hiatus the duo of Davey and Goliath are back, and with a wonderful Christmas message, too! The son of the original animators recreates the timeless style of this old 60's favorite, and adds an updated and needed reminder of what the birth of Jesus was all about- the coming of love into the world, not just 2000 years ago, but today and always. The animation looks better than ever, thanks to newer technology, and the story is told in a moving way that kids can understand and adults will enjoy, too. This DVD has now become a season tradition for me and my family! It just goes to show that the truth (and solid artistic work) holds up despite the passing of time.
Let's see more of such great animation and keep Davey and Goliath coming out on DVD!

Quick Review, December 24, 2010
This review is from: Davey and Goliath's Snowboard Christmas (DVD)
Religion and Political Correctness Aside,
I think Davey and Goliath's Snowboarding Christmas is the best Davey and Goliath to date. The animation: Superb! A good addition to any stop-motion fan/geek/enthusiast/lover's collection. Hurray.
