    BARNYARD: The Movie


    I Took Jesse to see this last week and he enjoyed it.  I was a bit miffed though.


    This is Otis (on the left),


    Otis is a male bovine, also known as a bull.



    bulls do not have udders


    And that’s no BULL.

  • Isn’t that hysterical? I wonder if it was deliberate or if EVERYONE working on that movie is so stupid that they didn’t think about udders being exclusive to females.

  • That is miff worthy for sure!! Are they just idiots, or do we just like to pretend that penises don’t exsist?
    Nice observation…lol
    xo

  • It makes about as much sense as drawing tits on that mail man…lmao.

  • shouldn’t he have horns too?

    re bellaemsy’s comment…i think our society just likes to pretend penises don’t exist! i mean, really, could you make a g movie with a huge penis wagging around like the udder????

    ryc: yes, eventually, i hope to grow our own grains. right now, i buy them in bulk from the co-op. i have a grain mill that we hooked up to a stationary bike last year but it’s been out of commission for about 9 of those months…hopefully it will be back up and running soon.

  • We couldn’t help but wonder the same thing ourselves.  And WTH was the deal with the cow delivering her calf ON HER BACK?  I was dying!

    Stupid movie.  It STILL made me laugh.

  • I KNOW, I kept whispering about it the entire time in the theatre

  • Hmmmmm…..  Perhaps it’s a misshapen penis??  I would ordinarily say something snide about the state of science education in this country, but I’m just too tired. 

  • I’m just laughing. 1st its just so funny and 2nd the comments people have posted are great!

  • Sean says Otis was played by a cow actress in drag.

  • I have wanted to see that movie since they played the trailer back at Christmas… I love stoopid comedy.  Looks like this one really fits the bill…

  • Maybe he’s a pre-op transgender? LOL.

  • it’s probably better than putting the real thing there…

  • Okay….that’s too weird.

  • HA!  I never thought of that.  Thanks for pointing it out!

  • Wow. ::snort::

    Ryc: With the persimmons, I will collect them and then harvest the sweet/spicy pulp and freeze it in 2 cup (isn’t that 1 quart?) quantities. Mainly for my father who lives in VA., as he has a family recipe for persimmon pudding (it is out of this WORLD!!) and often doesn’t have persimmons available to him. I also have the recipe, but last year was my first harvest and I gave all the persimmons to him. I may try making it this year myself. Lmk if you want the recipe.

  • I haven’t seen it yet, but Zephyr saw it twice with the inlaws and keeps dying laughing over it.  I think cow has 4 penises and they are just trying to make us believe that is a set of udders.  I have been perturbed by this since the first preview I saw when I thought, why the heck are they having a male actor do the voice of a heifer?

  • – and an admission: I didn’t even notice this until someone else pointed it out to me. What can I say?? I’m a city girl!!!

  • Maybe this comedy is more high brow than we’re giving it credit for and they intentionally cast a female cow in the role of a bull as a reversal of the Elizabethan convention of casting men as women. . . . .

    Or not. 

    To Moo or not to mooo?  That is the real question. ;)

  • LOL! I saw that on the preview, a while back, and just couldn’t go see it (dh too the kids) – it would drive me crazy to sit through the movie looking at cow man boobs.

  • LOL ~ Your sense of humor is present in all your situations ~ I LOVE IT! 

    The producers probably want us to pretend were clueless on animal sexuality,

    its hard enough the way it is ~ udders on a bull now that is udderly ridiculous!

    Have a great week Julie and thanks for the entertainment!

  • Maybe Otis had a sex change operation????  Funny.

  • My kids noticed that on the advertisements for the movie – it ruined Miles interest in seeing it at all :)

  • visited from BellaErnsy’s site. your kids are beautiful. i love the way you write on here and your indian food recipes made my mouth water. keep up the good work. yeah i was a lil confused by the male cow having an udder too. perhaps in a kids movie it wasn’t appropriate to have a ‘large bull’ piece hanging out of his stomach (cause we all know they ARE blessed!)

  • Maybe he is a transcow?

  • oh, I hate it when they do stupid mistakes like that!

    or are they simply treating cows like they’ve always treated women… you know they’d rather flash some breast over a penis any day.

  • I didn’t know his name…but it just made me scratch my head…cows have udders…this cow has a male voice and (now I find out…a male name?) Tlak about confusing the kiddies…not to mention the parents!

  • i personally think it was very socially responsible of the makers of this movie to use it as a platform to educate the general public about transgender-edness LOL.  Yay for bull-cows!

  • transgendered cow!!!! AWESOME!!

    it’d be better if *he* had a fake mustache

  • I thought the same thing–what’s up with the udders?  LOL
