Watched Happy Feet last night.
I’m sorry, but it was a load of environmentalist, secular crap.
(Let me just say this before you get too worked up: I’m not anti-environment. I’m big on good stewardship of the environment. I’m an Eagle Scout and anyone that knows me knows one of my biggest pet peeves is littering — just ask my kids. However, environmentalism is not my god and the movement is not my religion.)
I digress.
This movie reminded me of the overt, tree-hugging drivel in Ferngully.
Not only that, but nearly every song had some sort of sexual innuendo in it. How about Salt n’ Pepa’s “Let’s talk about Sex” and Boyz II Men’s “I’ll make Love to You.” Oh, yeah — in a kid’s movie.
I also thought it was:
- derogatory to Latinos
- anti-religious/anti-God/anti-religious establishment (e.g. the Elders of the High Council)
- pro-gay (Mumble was just “born that way”)
Add this one to the should-have-never-let-the-kids-watch-it list.
If you want more details about what I’m talking about, check out this Screen It review or this Christian Spotlight review.
Ugh.
