Changes: Lord of the Beans

Revision as of 15:50, 20 October 2014

Lord of the Beans is the twenty-seventh episode of VeggieTales.

The story is a parody of J. R. R. Tolkien's "The Lord of the Rings" series and the film trilogy.

An optical illusion is a way of seeing something that does not exist or that is other than it appears.

This is the last time the 1998 Big Idea closing bumper is used.
This is the only main VeggieTales episode where there's no commentary track. Phil Vischer and Tim Hodge later apologized about it. Though a character commentary track was featured in the DVD.
Shortly after the episode's release, Phil Vischer got a noticed from New Line Cinema about them not legally parodying the "Lord of the Rings" films without permission. This is the reason why The Wonderful Wizard of Ha's was late in production.
The things Billboy got/received with the bean are:
- Making himself taller.
- Fine clothing.
- An espresso maker.
- A birthday cake.
The things Ahem/Spiegel got/recived with the bean are:
- Fine clothing.
- Lifetime of food (eg.pizza, cupcakes).
- A fountain of Grape Nehi that shoots out from the ground.
- A 200 pound marshmallow Peep.

Larry doesn't have legs, and yet he can pedal the unicycle.
Some of the other flobbits at Billboy's party are just cardboard cutouts.
Bob seems to show his inner feelings of the What Have We Learned Song. Even Larry thinks he's somewhat out of place.

When Randlf pops up and asks Billboy why he looks different, Billboy's went cross-eyed.

Some references in the countertop, such as Larry almost falling in the sink and mentions of VeggieBeat were from Rack, Shack & Benny. In fact, this episode was released ten years after that said episode was released (1995).
Some of the sets were reused from the previous episode, such as the mountains and the underground lair. Even the hairbrush Grumpy offers to Ahem was from that episode.
The small bee that shows up in the beginning and later appears when the group were stuck on the tree is the same model as Snoodle Doo.
Some of the flobbits were about to eat a slice of pizza.
The Other Elf offers the sporks cookies.
Scaryman's "Show yourself!" is an echo of Jonah's line when he encountered Khail.

Mr. Lunt and his habit for labor-saving devices would come in the second feature film.
