Strawberry, Alvin and The Great Escape!

It's a Not-So Meaningful Light is a sequel to It's a Meaningful Life. This is similar to that of It's a Wonderful Life and Jonah - a VeggieTales Movie.

Plot
With "King George and the Ducky", "Esther... The Girl Who Became Queen", "The Ballad of Little Joe" and "Gideon: Tuba Warrior" in its heels, the artists at Big Idea turn their attention to... the biggest fish story of all time that has a league of its own! The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything, everyone's favorite motivationally challegened seafarers, are back! And this time, this group of lazy slackers, and Alvin, Simon and Theodore, a group of popstar-singing leeks team up with a group of girls and break Mr. Marigold's slavery plan. But the pirates who don't do anything don't let on. And as they scramble to come up with the money for some operations by doing very ridiculous things that the Marigolds suggest them to do, including building pyramids of sheep; the league and the Marigolds, of course, become very suspicious. Those operations cost lots and lots of fortunes! When everyone is focused on this rotten plot, can a kind rhubarb help to get to the root of the problem? VeggieTales presents a quest for eternal life, a battle for the kingdom and a lesson in being loyal to others.
