The Lord of the Beans

The Lord of the Beans is a parody released by Big Idea Studios. The parody is overt, taking character names and places directly from the source and changing them to fit the VeggieTales context (i.e., replacing Bilbo Baggins with "Billboy Baggypants", replacing Orcs with "Sporks", and welding Sauron and Saruman into one character, "Scaryman"). In spite of this, the plot takes many unexpected turns, such as when Frodo drops the One Bean into a well, and recognizable scenes are freely reinterpreted to create humor (such as Fangorn Forest being "Raspberry Forest" and "not that kind of raspberry") or underscore the video's message (to use one's gifts to lift rather than to dominate).
