WC's Top 10 Facts about the Fib from "LarryBoy and the Fib from Outer Space"

Hi, I'm the Whatsoever Critic. I review just about anything.

Today I wanted to share with you my Top 10 facts about the Fib from LarryBoy and the Fib from Outer Space.

I figured since I haven't seen the movie in months that I go ahead and do a Top 10 list for the movie's villain. So let's jump right in.

10. There's only one way to defeat him.

I listed this fact pretty low, because the answer is straightforward. Just ask yourself: What's the opposite of a lie? The truth.

I mean, the movie may have mentioned weapons and stressed out the importance of defeating this monster, but the real answer was to simply tell the truth.
-There's your example of "the power of words," kids.

9. He has a red counterpart.

It's at the end of the movie where we get to see another Fib fall from the sky, only this one is red, and it goes another direction, instead of to Junior's house.
-What was the purpose of showing a different Fib alien... and NOT taking advantage of that? I mean, there could've been sequels! Then again, the Rumor Weed episode that came after was enough to impress LarryBoy fans... in the 90s. After the 90s, the Fib seemed to be a lost cause.

8. He was voiced by Tim Gregory. (Who's Tim Gregory?)
You'll find this fact in the end credits. However, the strangest thing about this is that we have no clue who his voice-actor, or what he has been doing since LarryBoy and the Fib from Outer Space. I mean, if you trying doing a Google search of Tim Gregory (as well as adding "voice actor" to the search inquiry), you'll find that this was his only voice-acting role.
-Um... one-time casting calls, anyone?

7. Pop cultural references
Although, there seems to be some fan art on this villain, there's still no denying that you can make a pop cultural reference on him. For example...

-Godzilla

-King Kong

6. He has growing abilities.
This fact is also obvious, because we see him grow no matter what scene he's in before transforming to his biggest (even though the transformations take place off-screen).
Now here's I propose on seeing the size length of him from his tiniest to his biggest.

-First scene: either the size of a golf ball or a tennis ball

-After that first lie: the size of a basketball

-After the second lie: maybe the size of the average adult
-After the third lie... This leads me to...

5. There were inconsistencies on him.
The Fib's size as a giant was heavily debated, because some people said this, and others said another thing.

But if you were to read the description on the back of the VHS cover, it says: "30-foot-tall monster threatening to devour all of Bumblyburg." However, when it came to the DVD covers, the part of his size was omitted from the description on the back cover. In fact, the movie actual itself doesn't explain how tall he is when he reaches his biggest.

4. He himself tells lies.
That would make sense, because he calls himself "Fib."
-There had to be a reason for that name, folks!
And we know this, because there are two scenes where he himself is lying to Junior about his change in sizes:
-after the first lie:
Fib: "...I've always been this size..."
-after the second lie:
Fib: "Well, maybe I put on a few pounds..."
-Then again, he can't make himself grow, because he's telling lies himself.

3. We have no idea of this villain's origin.
We're only given bits and pieces of info...

-He came from outer space.
-He's a space alien.
That's it? What galaxy did he come from? How did he come into being? What kind of alien species is he? Explain, movie!

2. He's capable of being violent.

As far as we know, he had already made an attempt on two lives: Junior Asparagus and LarryBoy.
He has threatened Junior with the intention of eating him; he nearly succeeding in eating LarryBoy...
-Only sucking on him like a lollipop and then spitting him back out as Junior tells the truth.

Plus, before all that, the Fib is out there, stepping on cars, destroying buildings...
-There was smoke coming out of one of the buildings in one scene.
That was pretty bad-ass. Now I want to see Big Idea bring this guy back for a sequel! Big Idea, make it happen! But I don't that's going to be the case, which leads me to...

1. His one and only appearance
Yes, of all the Veggietales episodes to date, this was the Fib's only appearance. Although he has been featured on a small poster in the back of a classroom in LarryBoy and the Rumor Weed,

and on a poster fighting Goliath the giant pickle in Madame Blueberry, this was still pretty much it for this villain.
This ties in with Facts #3, 8, and 9, because I feel that this villain's story isn't over, or at least, is missing something in his story. I mean, don't you all want to get a back story from the Fib? Or at least why he has these lying abilities to begin with? I know I do!

Whatsoever Critic on Fanfiction.net, etc. (WE'RE GOING VIRAL)

Hi, I'm the Whatsoever Critic. I review just about anything.

Back as a freshman in college, I was hooked to a website called Fanfiction.net. It's an online forum where people can write stories about some of their favorite TV shows, movies, etc. I haven't messed with my account in years, but I'm thinking of starting it up again. (It'll take a while though, because I need ideas.)

Also, I'm interested in a site called Deviant Art, which is where people can basically draw on the computer and/or display fan art on the Internet. That's something I want to start doing. (That'll take a while too, because I need to create an account, and I need ideas.)

So, I'll spend the upcoming summer incorporating Fanfiction.net and Deviant art. And I just want to say thank you for the views, and I hope you follow me on my Youtube channel.

"A.D. The Bible Continues" Ep. 5 Review (5/3/15)

Hi, I'm the Whatsoever Critic. I review just about anything.

Final exams are over for me, and graduation is just around the corner.

So until then... let's get down to talking about episode five of A.D. The Bible Continues.

We start in Simon Peter's secret community outside of Jerusalem, where Peter feels guilty for what happened to the couple that "bet against God" in the previous episode.
-The Lord works in mysterious ways... anyone?

Meanwhile, in Jerusalem, Pilate acts like a bigger asshole by issuing a statement that 10 women will be executed every day that his assassin is loose.
-It's like he's hating his wife more and more after each episode... That's just wrong.
He decides to target a high-profiled wedding to take the women from.

Back at Peter's secret community, the disciples want to help the people of Jerusalem, because of the horrendous executions issued by Pilate. While that's going on, Maya is introduced to a young girl who lost her family... somehow.
-Um, they don't go further on the girl's situation. They just label her an orphan then and there.

Later, Leah goes to Boaz's wife to try and convince her to confess and turn in her husband to face his crime. The wife doesn't say much, but only says that she doesn't know where he is.
-This is starting to become the CSI or Law and Order of A.D.

The next scene shows Peter meeting a guy named Philip, who says that he wants to lead people to the secret community.

-Hmm... I don't know. Simon Peter's been cheated once already...

Now that the wedding was tipped off by Claudia secretly, and the centurion confronts her for it, the executions still continue. Leah assures Caiaphas that Boaz's wife will cave in eventually, because she's holding something back.
-Of course, she is.

While tensions rise in the Pilate household, Simon Peter tells Steven to help build Jesus' ministry.

Later, Boaz's wife finally goes to Leah to expose Boaz. But at the same time, the wife is kept in a room, until Boaz is captured. This leads to Caiaphas going straight to Peter's camp to search for Boaz. Peter himself learns why Boaz is on the run, and he confronts the guy for murdering someone.
Simon Peter: "You cannot justify a murder... All I can do is forgive you." Eventually, Boaz comes to his senses and turns himself into Caiaphas. After viewing a two-minute sit-down between Boaz and Caiaphas, Boaz's wife is notified by Leah that Boaz had turned himself in.

Then there's a scene with Maya and the girl. Maya wants to be a mother to this orphan girl...
-(sarcasm) Well... why not? It's like we've learned so much about the girl and her growing friendship with Maya already.

Then we get a scene with Claudia and Leah. Claudia gets mad and slaps Leah for talking back to her.
-Well, come on. It's bad enough that Claudia has to deal with an abusive ruler husband... But still, why strike one of the people that you would meet in secret?

Speaking of abusive, Pilate finally confronts Boaz as Caiaphas hands over the assassin. Pilate takes the opportunity to stab Boaz with a small dagger...
-Why?
...and then he orders that Boaz be tortured. However, this torture session is cut short when an arrow strikes Boaz's chest... by that same guy that told him to "disappear." After the incident, Pilate slams the centurion for failing to execute Boaz correctly, but letting someone else kill him.

Meanwhile, as Simon Peter and Caiaphas look over the dead corpse of Boaz, they both share a song together (a hymn?). Then suddenly, as soon as Peter mentions Jesus' name, he gets thrown in prison, along with his fellow disciples.

While that's going on, we see that Boaz's wife had sent the mysterious archer to kill her husband. We learned that the guy was Boaz's mentor. Now, with that said, Boaz's wife begs the guy to "teach [her] how to kill."
-So, does this mean that she going to go Carmen Elektra or Lara Croft on us? We'll soon find out...

But on the bright side, Peter and the disciples are able to break out of prison with the help of an armed hooded angel.

-Cool!

Then the disciples decide to go to the temple to keep preaching about Jesus... which gets them arrested again. Thus, we get another trial scene; but this time, before Caiaphas can order them to be executed, one of the elders stops him and says that they don't be punished with death, because they'll either fade away or they'll come out with the truth.

Therefore, the disciples are taken in public and whipped and tortured.

Seeing that her father is going through so many changes ever since he committed himself to Christ, Maya tells her father that she wants to return home, in order to reserve the old memory of her father- him being a regular fisherman. This hits home for Peter.

The episode ends with Steven going to the temple and challenging Caiaphas and the chief elders.

As a result, Steven is taken outside of the city and stoned.

Now, so far, we're five episodes in, and already things are getting real with our characters. Two characters die this time, which was unexpected. Now I'm wondering what'll happen to Peter and the other disciples. How long will they be able to be bailed out by God from tough situations? Will we be introduced to more characters and more storyline? We'll find out in the next episode.
