Fish and Peanuts

The Gooberstory... an award-winning Flash mini-epic, cute/gorgeous/moving in a Lion King sorta way. Free up a few quiet minutes to enjoy the whole thing, both sight and sound. Also mirrored here. (Found at The Presurfer.)

The second film, "Nim's Winter Tale," has been linked here before but I think the Gooberstory warrants a thread of its own.

Here's the Nim thread. Thanks for posting this, somehow I never got around to watching the Gooberstory and forgot about it.

Yes, uh, very pretty. A story that made sense would have been nice.

Intro: Okay this is gonna be about peanuts. So what's with the leaf? I'm sure it'll make sense in...
Diversity: What does all this crap got to do with peanuts?
Change: What does all this crap gotta do with change?
Parting: What do all these crappy fish have to do with peanuts?
Ending: Ewww! Gross! I'm never eating a peanut again!
