Wissenswertes
Mike Nawrocki wrote a song for this video called "I Love My Tongue" in which Larry would sing about loving to yodel. But he thought it sounded weird and changed it to "Love My Lips". He also didn't want people to think the song was about speaking in tongues. However, the idea of yodeling was later used in VeggieTales: The End of Silliness? More Really Silly Songs! (1998) in "The Yodeling Veterinarian of the Alps".

Patzer
When Dave tells Goliath he will fight him, Jerry is standing between Tom and Jimmy. In the close-up, Jimmy and Jerry have switched places.

Zitate
Pa Grape: It's very nice that you wanna help. But saving the country is a big thing. You're a little guy! Big people do big things and little people do little things. So - stay with the sheep.

Crazy Credits
The film's title does not appear until the end.

Alternative Versionen
During the Silly Song, as Archibald presents Larry with the Rorschach test, one of the images is of a human being. In the original 1996 VHS release, it's a headshot of Sonny Bono. Following Bono's death in 1998, it was changed to a caricature of Big Idea animator, Robert Ellis. The DVD version uses neither Bono or Ellis and instead uses a caricature of Mike Nawrocki.

Another triumph for Big Idea Productions

The creators of VeggieTales have consistently put out some of the best Christian children's entertainment I have seen in a long time. "Dave and the Giant Pickle" is no exception.

The Biblical story of David and Goliath is told using great computer animation and a cast of (what else) vegetables. Junior Asparagus plays Dave, the youngest of Jesse's sons. While his brothers often pick on him because of his size, Dave realizes that "little guys can do big things, too" as he ventures forward to face Goliath, a giant, Philistine pickle with boxing gloves.

Most of all, this movie is a perfect lesson in self-esteem. Children and parents who watch this movie are reminded that "God made them special and He loves them very much."

I would recommend this video, and the rest of the VeggieTales collection, for every family's collection.
