"Traditional Values Coalition" is an Ogre! ARRRGGGHHH!
Edited on Wed Jul-07-04 11:59 AM by JHB
Wasn't * saying something about "values"? Here's another example of such off-the-deep-end "values":

TVC Weekly News: Parents Beware: 'Shrek 2' Features Transgenderism And Crossdressing Themes

Parents who are thinking about taking their children to see "Shrek 2," may wish to consider the following: The movie features a male-to-female transgender (in transition) as an evil bartender. The character has five o'clock shadow, wears a dress and has female breasts. It is clear that he is a she-male. His voice is that of talk show host Larry King.

During a dance scene at the end of the movie, this transgendered man expresses sexual desire for Prince Charming, jumps on him, and both tumble to the floor.


Apparently all of us without "values" were able to take the hint from the character's name.... the Ugly Stepsister.

In another scene in the movie, Shrek and Donkey need to be rescued from a dungeon where they are chained against the wall. The rescue is conducted by Pinocchio who is asked to lie so his nose will grow long enough for one of the smaller cartoon characters to use it as a bridge to reach Shrek and Donkey. Donkey encourages him to lie about something and suggests he lie about wearing women's underwear. When he denies wearing women's underwear, his nose begins to grow.

...and the second biggest laugh in the movie (right behind PiB's "secret weapon").

An earlier scene in the movie features a wolf dressed in grandma's clothing and reading a book when Prince Charming encounters him. Later, one of the characters refers to the wolf's gender confusion.

Hey, that bobbie-sockser Little Red'll do that to you!

"The five o'clock whistle's on the blink,
The whistle won't blow and whadd'ya think?
My pop is still in the factory
'cause he don't know What tiiiiiiiime it happens to be."

1. Shrek problems.
"Watchdog" groups had a problem with the first Shrek, too. Sadly, my favorite link about that is down (ProtecTV's website. . . if it's moved, someone PLEASE hit me with the new link). My screaming, raving, swear-infested rant is still up, however. Forewarned is forearmed, it's naughty enough to make the VP blush.

3. What is really funny
Is that when F9/11 came out, all the Republicans were suggesting that people go see Shrek2 instead.
