le thread des grands disparus ! Nécrologie de qualité depuis 2008. (Page 359 sur 476)

Alors ok j’arrête de respirer jusqu'à ce que 2020 arrête de nous faire CHIER.

Freeze-frame on this parenting situation. What am I supposed to do? I figure I have three options.

1) Explain that the gorilla is supposed to be a black person.

2) Try to explain the history of French colonialism, how the economics of exploitation in sub-Saharan Africa led to an ideology of racism, which survived in a ghostly transfer even after the conclusion of the French Empire, infecting even silly comics about ancient Gaul.

3) Say, “I don’t know why the pirates have a gorilla” and flip to the next page.

Besides, “Babar” is boring.

Sulley and Mike, on the way into the office, happen to pass an orange squidlike grocer with a handlebar mustache who kind of talks-a-like-a-this. Perhaps that kind of stereotype is not as gruesome or upsetting as the one in the original “Fantasia,” but I had the distinct impression, as my son laughed at the scene, that my Italian immigrant grandfather was turning over in his grave.

We all need to grow up, I know. Me, the moviemakers, the audience. The only person who seems mature enough for the situation is the 6-year old. All he sees is a gorilla with some pirates.
