Man, no one was this persnickety about 80s or 90s cartoons. I have a feeling the kinds of cartoons millennials like will hold up very well.
The standards were pretty low in the '80s; few shows from that era still hold up. People probably were persnickety about cartoons in the '90s, on like Usenet.
I mean, the obvious explanation is that Christians can't do a lot of the stuff that happens in the Bible because, well, a lot of what happens in the Bible is sinful. Like Uriah and whatnot.
But the Bible deals with real life as it was, and Christians have to deal with real life as it is. So, this whitewashing of existence is always going to prevent Christian movies from being the best that they can be.
Or who knows? Maybe the problem was just the low budgets often associated with Christian films. Or the way they're handled. The Ten Commandments is technically a Christian film (as is it's successor, the Prince of Egypt), and everybody loves those films. Then again, the Passion of Christ is the most overtly Christian film in society's recent memory, and that got mixed reviews. And nobody liked One Night With the King.
And there's the fact that the above films are all historical while the films that I usually think of as Christian all take place in modern times.
I've learned to tolerate drama...except on the boat
In America, ABC has a tradition of running the Cecil B. DeMille Ten Commandments on the Saturday before Easter
The mainstream in America seems to have pretty much forgotten about The Prince of Egypt, though...the only 2D DWA film anyone here seems to still care about is The Road to El Dorado (a failure at the time, but rescued thanks to sporadic cable TV airings and nostalgia)
you know when i was a kid the first Bible book i read through was actually Song of Songs
it was short and looked like an easy read, but afterwards it left me quite bewildered
Makes sense. It's basically a love poem between Solomon and an unnamed wife, often used in sermons about marriage and Christian principles of love (but not as much as Corinthians 13).

I'm feeling sarcastic today.
