Charlotte's Web (2006) Parent's Guide on IMDB - Unbelievable!

[TheSeeker]

My wife wants to show Charlotte's Web to her class so I looked it up on on IMDB trying to find its rating. I clicked on the link to the Parent's Guide and this is what they have under "Sex & Nudity":

There is a shot where a Templeton is walking behind a cow and the cow farts. During the shot, the cow's vulva is easily seen.

You've gotta be kidding me! Who looks for this kind of stuff much less cares about it?

Mother: "And what did you do at school today?"
Child: "The teacher showed us this video of animals' genitals."
Mother: "I'm calling the school. No, wait! I'm calling my lawyer!"

 

[Ashu]

Its no worse than having a pet dog is it? Or taking your kid to a petting Zoo...or anything involving animals for that matter.

Like seriously, I don't think kids will really notice, unless they've seen/know too much already.

 

[SalvorHardin]

This is funny and pathetic at the same time.


Yes, god forbid THE CHILDREN would see a cows genitals.
Human idiocy knows no bounds...

 

[B.J.]

And exactly how many kids could pick that out? Unless they're the child of a farmer or a vet, I'm not sure they'd know what to look for! (Heck, I'm not sure *I* could spot it!)

I think this guy said it best:

Originally said by Eminem
Of course they gonna know what "intercourse" is
By the time they hit fourth grade
They got the Discovery Channel, don't they?

You know, my parents actually bought me that film on DVD very recently (something to do with my loving the book as a child... ) so I, erm, might check it out. For the purposes of research, you understand.

That just reminds me of...

George's mother asked him if he enjoyed the school field trip to the farm. "Yes! The farmer showed us around the barns and the fields, and we got to pet the goats, and the calves, and the f*ckers---"

"George! What are you talking about?"

"Well, the farmer called 'em 'effers, but we knew what he meant."

That reminds me of the infamous Stan Boardman joke about the old world war fighter planes... (the joke that pretty much ended his TV career )

Care to explain?

It missed out the punchline, though. :facepalm:

I've never seen that clip before... and it looks like it's form one of my beloved list shows!

I need to hunt down the punchline

Ah, the good old List Shows. Now we know who to blame.


By the way, I believe the punchline was "Zhat vasn't a Fokker, zhat's a Messerschmitt!"

Its no worse than having a pet dog is it? Or taking your kid to a petting Zoo...

A heavy petting zoo might be questionable...

 

[Pingfah]

I wonder what this parent would make of the really hardcore shit like All Creatures Great and Small or One by One

 

[Peach Wookiee]

Would they prefer a steer's wang?

 

[JonathonWally]

Finally, Animal Farm's secret agenda revealed....

 

[Mallory]

This is why we only read books when I was a kid.

Short books. Those tablets were heavy, huh.

Reminds me of one of my favorite opening lines, from Philip Jose Farmer's "Showdown At Shootout:" "The Mad Fokker struck again." Hey, Fokker is just a funny word....

Full cow nudity. That's hot. I heard there was some cow tipping in that as well. But it's hard for the cow to hold dollar bills without a g-string to stuff them in.

No mention of characters squeezing the cow's tits? I thought that kind of sexually explicit imagery was a tad inappropriate for a kid's movie.

Couldn't find a video that included everything, but here's a text version of the whole bit. Classic joke.
