 Hey guys welcome back to Comic-Ed and TV where all geek culture collides if you're new to the channel Don't forget to hit that subscribe button so you don't miss out on future videos Today we're gonna do something a little bit different since Easter is tomorrow. I'm filming this on Saturday Once I'm done. It's going straight up. I've been thinking about doing this for a while But I didn't really know how to go about it since our channel is about geek culture However yesterday last night saw on my buddy Hermes channel. He had uploaded the VHS anniversary collection On his and his his channel is very similar to ours. He only he does mostly reviews That's pretty much all he does is reviews in the similar style that I'm gonna do here now however our channel is focused mostly on Geek all things geek culture, you know, you have reviews you have comic book story retellings you have comic book superhero history Voltron all that other stuff tour reviews everything so I wasn't quite sure how to go about Filming this and put uploading it on to come again since we're mainly geek culture channel Until I saw his video and he did it very well, which her me. I know you're watching so Usually do do pretty well. So with that being said what we have here since Easter is tomorrow the 50th anniversary collection of the 10 Commandments of Cecil D Cecil B. DeMills the 10 Commandments Includes the 1956 Academy Award-winning classic and The 1923 epic silent film as you can see here. You got a nice box here Very nice. It looks like old parchment paper and then you've got this indented lettering 50th anniversary and Very shiny and something cool. I found this at Walmart I Think it was about seven years ago really and I had to have it as Tradition in my family. We always watch the 10 Commandments on Easter Sunday or Whatever day it airs that year. It's usually Easter Sunday. Sometimes it's on Good Friday or on the Saturday in between But we always watch it Something I've found is a lot of people wonder have always wondered Why they air the 10 Commandments on Easter the 10 Commandments doesn't really have anything to do with Easter. You'd think they'd air something like Something that has to do with Jesus or whatever However, Passover is the major Jewish spring festival that commemorates the liberation of the Israelites from Egyptian slavery Lasting seven or eight days from the 15th day of Nice and it goes from Friday March 30th until Saturday, April 7th. So that's why the ABC usually broadcast the 10 Commandments in that area So here we have Open it up. You can see it's a clear window box With Charlton Heston as Moses there You're very nice And then inside you have several scenes from the movie you got younger Moses there with Nefertiti Older Moses there talking to the Israelites part in the Red Sea You got Pharaoh Now This is a very nice package. I really like it I think I've only kind of for a while past few years I've kind of gotten out of watching the 10 Commandments every single year But now that I'm an adult have a family of my own my kids don't really know much about this stuff We go to church occasionally, but Nowhere near what we probably should and so I think this would be a really good way Teaching so we have here disc one the 10 Commandments we got disc 2 Which I think might be the special features or something. I'm not sure and then disc 3 is the 1923 silent film Very nice images And right there you got images from the 1923 silent film there turn it around With its cast of thousands and imaginative use of early special effects director Cecil B DeMills original silent 1923 version of the 10 Commandments is Truly one of the greatest epics to come out of the 1920s Hollywood its unique storyline moves back and forth in time To show the relevance of its Old Testament morality to contemporary Circa 1923 Immorality complimenting DeMills powerful screen drama is Gaylord Carter's digitally recorded score Performed on a magnificent Whirlitzer organ over 30 years later DeMille now at the pinnacle of his profession via such hits as Samson and Delia from 1949 the greatest show on earth 1952 Topped the pageantry and excitement of the original silent film with his sweeping 1956 retelling of the 10 Commandments filmed in Egypt and the Sene and Featuring one of the biggest sets ever constructed for the motion picture This star-studded Technicolor extravaganza tells the story of the life of Moses Charlton Heston Who turned his back on privileged life To lead his people to freedom this classic screen epic was nominated for seven Academy Awards including best picture in of 1956 the 10 Commandments 1956 version special features Clue commentary by Catherine Orison Author of written in stone making Cecil B.
