When you first watch Frosty the Snowman, on the surface it appears to be a light hearted tale of magic, hopping and talking snowmen. But when you delve deeper into Frosty's love affair with children, it's only then that things move into the Michael Jackson realm of creepy. Frosty loves kids, a lot. So much so, he's willing to die just to be around them. That should be your first indication of a problem. He also wears a silk top hat that's "magic" and he smokes a corn cob pipe. Only pedophiles spend that much time with children while wearing silk hats and smoking corn cob pipes. Really, this movie just teaches kids that it's OK to play with strange men as long as they're wearing "magic" hats. I think the true hero of the Frosty movies is the "evil" magician who is trying to get his hat back and put an end to Frosty's unhealthy obsession with kids.
"Hey kids let's all go back to my place for some wine... Happy Birthday!"
Then there's Rudolph the Rednosed Reindeer, who teaches us all a lesson about tolerance. Though, Rudolph has to go through hell first. His parents are ashamed of his birth because his nose is a different color. Then the young reindeer hate Rudolph for his "disability". They won't let him play in reindeer games and I'm assuming they banned him from other reindeer events, like reindeer yoga and reindeer movies. So, this means that reindeer are like flying Nazis with antlers. If you're different, you cannot be a part of their society. They're basically saying only black-nosed, regular reindeer, are allowed in this town, Rudolph, and there's no room for your kind. Sure Rudolph guides Santa's sleigh at the end, but that's his reward for years of torment? Forced slavery?
"Your name is Rudolph!"
Santa: "Hey Rudolph, sorry about that whole segregation thing... "
Rudolph: "It's OK"
Santa: "Hey, how about I make it up to you by letting you pull my sleigh full of presents?"
That's Santa's "I'm sorry" gesture. He allows Rudolph to be another one of his slaves. Which isn't anything new for Santa considering his love affair with elves who work for free. But Santa gets away with this crime against humanity by dressing them in silly clothes. No one is going to start a civil rights movement for a bunch of pointy eared midgets with curly toed shoes. It's hard for people to take your cause seriously under those circumstances. So, we learn that Santa makes Christmas happen with elven blood and on the broken backs of over worked reindeer. How could any child feel good about their presents knowing that?
