In the end, the resulting Waterworld-style shenanigans are ended when God sends a little extra murderous dickery in the form of a selective tsunami.

Aside from that, the Argentinian cartoon El Arca depicts the ark as a massive cruise ship for animals with massive glass windows (cough) and a completely useless helm (so Noah's sons and their wives have something to squabble over). A pair of evil moneychangers stow away with the animals but God lets it slide and they are presumably eaten by bears in the end. (I only bring this one up because when Shout! Factory imported the English dub on DVD they slashed fifteen minutes' worth of material they worried might offend Christians, and the Tallahassee Taliban still got their knickers in a very angry twist.)
