fore some reason 9 year old me thought this song was badass... I guess I always hyped up the scene of moses turning his staff into a snake from 10 Commandments I wanted to love this scene

>>83722576
...I actually like this movie.

>>83722778
It stands among the best of Disney's flicks. Doesn't get the respect it deserves.

>>83722597
That's because it's a kickass scene in a legitimately great kids/bible movie

>>83722851
>>83722867
Didn't say it's a Disney flick. Said it's as good as the best of them.

>>83722810
Subtle bait, anon

>>83722907
It has the backing of the guy who turned around Disney's film & animation units. Why didn't Eisner let him have that promotion?

The only western cartoons that are profitable enough to make anymore are goofy cartoons featuring either princesses or talking things that don't usually talk.

>>83726550
From the clips I saw it's about a baby who thinks puppies are substituting babies. If that's the case, I think the movie is spot on.
Europe is dying, we have a demographic catastrophe. Meanwhile more dogs than ever on the street and people treat them like retarded children. It is very obvious and embarrassing. I assume they didn't tackle feminism but that would be as close as we can get.

>>83731669
He gave Pharaoh every fucking chance to stop worshiping their false idols peacefully and they didn't

What other choice did he have?

>>83731669
Ancient Morality. Literally sins of the father. All of Egpyt was suffering for slaughtering an entire generation of Jews in the crib.

>>83732635
depending on your interpretation.
Either God hardened Pharoahs heart all the way through whenever he was going to back out
Hardened it in the end to punish him for hardening it before.
Just made him born hard.
Or it was Ra.
But in the end Egptians HAD to suffer for their crimes.

>>83732635
God himself was the one hardening Pharaoh's heart to make him stubborn, otherwise Pharaoh would have let the Isrealites go way sooner.

The story of Moses wasn't about giving the Egyptians a chance to repent. They had already sinned, and now it was time for those dues to be collected. No mercy, no forgiveness, just diving smiting. God was making an example of them.

Is this DreamWorks most patrician Animated movie?

>>83732851
man, god used to be such a dick.

>>83722810
Nice bait post. 10/10.

>>83733866
Exodus was essentially written to be a declaration of God's supremacy, both to the Jews, and more importantly any other neighboring countries who might hear the story. It was meant to show not only how God will mercilessly crush all those who wrong the Jews, but also how the Hebrew God reigns supreme over all other supposed "Gods." Each of the 10 plagues was meant to make a mockery of one of Egypt's pantheon. For example, Plague 9 (Darkness) disrespects Ra, god of the Sun. It's the deific equivalent of stabbing the biggest guy in the prison yard on your first day there, so nobody fucks with you.

A savvy theologian, I see. I wish more people understood the historical and anthropological context of the Old Testament/Talmud and other early religious works.

>Moses: Let my people go
>Pharaoh: lol no
>Moses: WATCH IT, PHARAOH

He was warned and paid the price. God did nothing wrong.

>>83734701
But the only reason Pharaoh said "lol no" in the first place is because God made him do it

>>83734726

How

>But I will harden Pharaoh's heart, and though I multiply my miraculous signs and wonders in Egypt he will not listen to you. Then I will lay my hand on Egypt and with mighty acts of judgment I will bring out my people the Israelites -- Exodus 7:3-4

Pharaoh already fucked up by keeping the Hebrews as slaves for years, God's not interested in giving him a chance to repent. Pharaoh is God's example of what happens when you fuck with God's people.

>>83734726
>>83734701
He was PHARAOH, leader of one of the strongest cities in the world, can you imagine how much it would undermine his authority if he relented after religious threats? The only way he could have done it is before the Jews started threatening him, he was doomed as soon as he was warned.

>gas the ancient egyptians racwar now. we dindu nuffin.
hey settle down moses.

>>83729414
Really makes me think

>>83734282

>tfw Captain Underpants is going to flop because Dreamworks didn't bother advertising it anywhere
It was a fun movie too. Although to be honest I was really hoping it'd be successful to show that cg movies can have a visually distinct style and still be profitable. I've grown to hate the safe and generic Dreamworks/Disney/Pixar visual style.

>>83722576

Man we need someone to interpret the whole bible in your style of writing my dude

This needs a special edition where they make all the egyptains black but leave the hebrews as is.

Eisner wasn't exactly known for making wise decisions at Disney.
I'd take him any day over Iger though, I miss the Wonderful World of Disney on Sunday nights.

Was Moses circumcised before getting on the basket or was later on when he rediscovered his jewish faith? Or was he not circumcised at all?

This is a legit question.

>>83732635
Yeah, but why did he take it out on the people of Egypt instead of Ramses himself?

>>83737081
In the Bible at least he was raised knowing he was Jewish and his real mom ended up being his wet nurse, but probably before then because he wasn't put into the river until he was a few months old.

>>83737081
Circumcision actually started with the Egyptians before the Jews adopted the practice

>>83731823
>God anthropomorphizing himself for 33 years actually gave him a very humbling perspective
Why isn't this biblical canon?

>>83737143

Ok then he was... It's because her egyptian queen mom thoughts when she saw he was cut and the rest of the people in palace later on... I don't recall ancient egyptians being circumcised anyways

>>83737086
That's literally the whole point of religion, to instill values so strongly within a culture as unyielding tradition, that they aren't forgotten no matter how much time passes.

i love how he'd appoint a judge, give them super powers, and the jews would listen and have good godly fun for a few years. but the SECOND. the fucking SECOND that judge dies those motherfuckers are back to worshiping moloch.

makes me wonder if moloch is actually just a nice guy that doesn't force them to eat manna all god damn day instead of the thousands of bulls and other sacrifices they have to make just to keep their bitchy god happy.

>>83733704
it is all of western animated medias most patrician endeavor. even when i was a full blown reddit fedora tipping atheist the burning bush scene brought tears to my eyes.

also All I Ever Wanted/The Plagues are the best fucking tracks. I really wish god didn't get off on forcing family to kill eachother. Why couldn't he have softened pharoahs heart. Why couldn't these brothers reunite. It makes me so fuckin sad.

Why does everyone love this song so much? It's nothing compared to The Plagues or Through Heaven's Eyes

>>83737081
Not directly related, but Moses didn't circumcise his son fast enough for God's taste and he almost got his ass smote for it.

Because there was a time when Hanz Zimmer was actually way more than just a BRMMMMMMMMMM meme

Also they took one of the best stories from the bible and made it fucking better by showing the actual miserable shakespearian tragedy of two brothers forced to battle

Pharoah still loved Moses and Moses still loved Pharoah. It was god and his peoples that drove the wedge between them

>tfw even in their own religion jews are the problem

>>83737335
People in the OT were much worse at following God's commands than people in the NT, despite the fact that Jesus arguably holds people to a much higher standard of behavior than OT God did.
