“Born under Venus look for a…..” said by Charlotte
Pickles in the Rugrats Movie. This is not the first of hidden messages or
metaphors that are put in children’s movies, but the question is did you notice
them as a kid or did they just fly over your head.
In many movies this is called “Adult Humor” because let’s
face it an hour and a half of watching babies mispronounce words, talking cars,
bugs, and toys, and a worrisome father looking for his son. After awhile an adult
needs to have a break from the G-rated and maybe enter into the world of PG-13.
In some peoples mind it’s “destroying the mind of kids” but in most cases kids
don’t even understand the meaning and if you ask me they don’t even realize
that it’s going on. But let’s see if you recognize any of these controversial
quotes and actions in some of the most popular kid’s movies brought to you by http://pixar.wikia.com/Adult_Humor:
Toy
Story
v
When Bo Peep
says to Woody, "Whadda ya say I get someone else to watch the sheep
tonight?” she might be referring to having sex.
A Bug’s Life
v
During the circus scene, one of the Fly Brothers says to Francis
(thinking he's a girl), "Hey, cutie! Wanna pollinate with a real bug?” He
may be talking about sex.
v
After the mosquito drinks his
"Bloody Mary - O+", he gets drunk.
v
After finding out that the
"warriors" are circus bugs, Flik organizes a "meeting" with them.
When Princess Atta
questions it, Flik states that it's "strictly BYOB". BYOB is an
acronym for "Bring Your Own Booze," while "booze" is a slang
term for alcoholic drinks.
Toy Story 2
v
After Jessie
springs into action to help Buster out of Andy's room in an emergency, Buzz's
love-struck reaction causes his wings to go spring erect. This is suggestive of
Buzz having been turned on by the new woman in his life.
Monster’s Inc.
v
When the Yeti
offers Mike and Sulley some yellow snow cones, Mike looks at it funny. Yellow
snow is typically known for having been urinated on. The Yeti recovers him from
the awkward pause by saying that it's lemon.
Finding Nemo
v Gurgle:
Don't you people realize we are swimming in our own...
Peach:
Shh! Here he comes!
v
While not exactly humorous, it should
be noted that the group that Bruce is running for other sharks operates in a
very similar manner to Alcoholics Anonymous, an organization that tries to help
alcoholics recover from their addiction to alcohol.
v
The decorative volcano inside the fish
tank is named Mt. Wannahawkaloogie. "Hawking a loogie" is actually a
slang term for throwing a spitball.
The Incredibles
v
When Syndrome
discovers that Mr. Incredible married Elastigirl
and had kids, he rudely remarks that they "got busy."
Cars
v
When everybody notices that Lightning
was missing after Mack arrives in California, Mack asks, "Did I forget to
wipe my mud flaps?" which means he forgot to wipe his poop.
v
Relating the story of Doc Hudson's
past, Lightning states that he won three Piston Cups. Startled at what he
misheard, Mater exclaims, "He did what in his cup?!” thinking that
Lightning said he urinated in his cup.
Some people feel that these comments or
actions in these movies destroy or ruin the mind of a child, but in reality when
you are young you just enjoy the movie as it is in it’s purity. And as you get
older and possible discover the underlining meaning of some of the parts in
movies once again you get to enjoy them but you may laugh a little harder
because now you understand them.
