It's obvious and understandable why it would be banned due to problems some feel it would affect children at such an early age in an adverse manner.

That aside, the claymation was amazing.... a perfect rendition of that chapter.

This is the "Satan" sequence from The Adventures of Mark Twain (1985), directed by Will Vinton. (Remember the California Rasins? Same dude.)

From IMDB's plot summary:

Based on elements from the stories of Mark Twain, this feature-length Claymation fantasy follows the adventures of Tom Sawyer, Becky Thatcher, and Huck Finn as they stowaway aboard the interplanetary balloon of Mark Twain. Twain, disgusted with the Human Race, is intent upon finding Halley's Comet and crashing into it, achieving his "destiny." It's up to Tom, Becky, and Huck to convince him hat his judgement is wrong, and that he still has much to offer humanity that might make a difference. Their efforts aren't just charitable; if they fail, they will share Twain's fate. Along the way, they use a magical time portal to get a detailed overview of the Twain philosophy, observing the "historical" events that inspired his works.

There's the Primus version somewhere on the Sift as well, with a nice claymation.

Actually, "metaphorically" needs not be removed. A video featuring a firefly in no way represents the human individual to whom the "firefly" VideoSift membership belongs. That is merely a coincidence.

That guideline intends to restrict any manner with which someone might attempt to skirt being disallowed to submit a video in which they appear, narrate, voice an animated character, etc. or are included as claymation, animation, etc. or have their vocals and/or instrumental and/or foley art audible... Basically, we're just covering all our bases.

Sorry, dupe (I remember writing the description for this in the top 100 of 2006)
