Humans Are the Real Monsters: Difference between revisions

Line 579:

* One ''[[Tom and Jerry]]'' short has Tom waiting in line to get into Heaven, as a "conductor" lets recently deceased cats onto the train if they were good. At one point he calls out several names, and we cut to see a dripping wet sack, which opens up as several kittens scamper out. The conductor sadly shakes his head and mutters "Some people..."

* [[Played for Laughs]] on ''[[South Park]]'', although it is more that the [[Adults Are Useless]] are [[Too Dumb to Live]]. Examples include "Prehistoric Ice Man" ("sometimes, what's right isn't as important as what's profitable"), "Here Comes the Neighbourhood ("And I want to assure the nation that is watching that South Park is not a town of prejudice or bigotry), and "Pinewood Derby" (where the Earth is cut off from the rest of the universe because the people are not worthy of joining the intergalactic community.) Of course anyone looking for a straighter version need look no further than [[Complete Monster|Cartman]].

* In the aptly named [[Tex Avery]] cartoon "The Cat who Hated People", this is the viewpoint of the eponymous protagonist. Kind of hard to blame him, seeing how humans treat him; they throw boots at him, hit him with brooms, and even ''shoot'' at him. He complains about how he doesn't get along with children (who tie paper bags onto his feet) babies (who flail him about a playpen), and housewives (who hit him over the head with broomsticks when he scratches their furniture). His point is made as he complains on a sidewalk, as people walk all over him, one of them ''kicking'' him for good measure.

* Implied in the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vhgOAR4Xq4Y "Bolero" sequence] of ''[[Allegro Non Troppo]]'': Life on a distant planet evolves out of a [[Shout-Out|discarded]] [[The Gods Must Be Crazy|soda bottle]]. Eventually, apes (who are [[Dark Is Evil|masses of black, sketchy fur]] compared to the brightly-colored cartoon animals and have [[Red Eyes, Take Warning|red eyes]] set in [[Black Eyes of Crazy|black sclera]]) are revealed as cheating bastards who don't follow the animals' evolutionary path {{spoiler|and eventually mess up the planet by creating war, religion, and destructive cities. By the end they have evolved into humans but on the inside they're still vicious, unsatisfied animals.}}

* Ever notice that most of the antagonists on ''[[Tiny Toon Adventures]]'' are humans? Mostly Montana Max and Elmyra Duff but the only sole exception to this is Mary Melody, in fact there is a better owner for Furrball than Elmyra was.
