WHAT IS “AUTO-TAINMENT?”

Frankly, we don’t know. But Larry the Cucumber is pretty sure it involves an automated set from the FUTURE, singing robotic children and some of your favorite veggies performing bizarre renditions of classic songs like “Zaccheus.” “Hole in the Bottom of the Sea” and Gilbert & Sullivan’s “Modern Major General.” All that and much more… plus Bob and Larry learn that God still loved them even when the future doesn’t work out quite the way they had hoped.

Tune in for the fun as Big Idea’s award-winning writers and animatiors cut loose with the most bizarre vision of the future since 2001 : A Space Odyssey.

We’ve seen the future… and it’s “AUTO-TAINMENT!”

Author: C.S. Lewis

THE MAGICIAN’S NEPHEW - The whole adventure begins when Digory and Polly find themselves in eccentric Uncle Andrew’s secret study. But when Uncle Andrew tricks Polly into touching the magic ring, she vanishes into the Other World. Digory is aghast, and determines immediately to go in search of her. Not only dose he find Polly but together they listen to Aslan’s song as he creates the enchanted world of Narnia, full of sun, trees, flowers, grass and animals.

THE LION, THE WITCH AND THE WARDRODE - “They saw Aslan is no the move. Perhaps he has already landed,” whispered the Beaver. Edmund felt a sensation of mysterious horror. Peter felt brave and adventurous. Susan felt as if some delightful strain of music had just floated by. And Lucy got that feeling when you realise it’s the beginning of summer. So, deep in the bewitched land of Narnia, the children set out on the most exciting and enchanted adventure ever written.

THE HORSE AND HIS BOY - After Shasta learnt from the mysterious stranger that he was not Arsheesh’s son, he decides to escape from the cruel land of Calormen, and with the help and persuasion of the talking horse Bree, he goes north towards Narnia where the air is sweet and freedom reigns. As they set out on their journey across the harsh desert, Shasta tries to glimpse what is ahead. It all looks so endless, wild, lonely…and free.

PRINCE CASPIAN - Troubled times have come to the magical land of Narnia. Gone are the days of peace and freedom when the animals, dwarfs, trees and flowers could live in absolute peace and harmony. Civil war is dividing the kingdom and final destruction is close at hand.
