OVERVIEW: Just in time for Easter, experience the Biblical story of Jonah and the Whale as never before with Jonah: A VeggieTales Movie Blu-Ray Combo Pack! Lionsgate Home Entertainment will release the very first VeggieTales feature film as it makes its high definition debut this March. This “playful, high-spirited and unmistakably amusing” (Kenneth Turan, Los Angeles Times) film has sold more than three million units to date and earned $25 million in its original theatrical run. Packaged as a Blu-ray and DVD together, the popular movie comes with an extensive array of special features including audio commentaries, music videos, behind the scenes footage, fun family activities and more. Jonah: A VeggieTales Movie Blu-Ray Combo Pack will be available on March 8, 2011.
SYNOPSIS: For thousands of years people have heard the story of a man who was eaten by a whale and lived to tell about it. But never in all that time has the tale been told by vegetables... until now! Get ready as Bob the Tomato, Larry the Cucumber and the rest of the Veggie gang set sail on a whale of an adventure in Jonah: A VeggieTales Movie, Big Idea's first full-length, animated feature film. Filled with music, laughs and some of the silliest adventurers ever to be swallowed whole, this is the story of Jonah and the whale as you've never seen it before – a story where everyone learns that one of the best gifts you can give – or get – is a second chance.
