VeggieTales: Pistachio

A Lesson in Listening to Your Parents

Runtime
49 min
FamilyAnimation

Synopsis

A family adventure that highlights the importance of listening to one's parents and valuing family, this creative parody of the classic story of Pinocchio offers a classic retelling with a clever VeggieTales twist. Once upon a time, a lonely toymaker named Gelato carved a little boy out of wood. To his surprise, this wooden boy could walk, talk, and clearly had a mind of his own. When Pistachio insists on doing things his way, he finds himself in a "whale" of a situation. Will he ultimately choose to heed the wisdom of a loving father in time to save his entire family from becoming fish food?

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 17

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
