I can't believe I didn't posted this up sooner. It was a few weeks ago or so and I was talking to this little four year old kid that lives across from my house. I asked him, "Do you like Randall Boggs from Monsters Inc.?"
He nodded and said, "I wanna get him for my birthday."
It was so darn cute! ;D

I asked him, "Do you like Randall Boggs from Monsters Inc.?" He nodded and said, "I wanna get him for my birthday." It was so darn cute! ;D Yeah, but did he know who "Randall Boggs" was? Four-year-olds will sometimes tell you they like anything, or have anything, when they don't even have a clue what you're talking about. I've done talks to four-and-five-year-old kindergarten kids, about snakes and spiders, in which the entire class claimed to have an assortment of rattlesnakes, cobras, anacondas, tarantulas, etc. at home-right down the last kid! They saw that I liked those things, so they decided that if they were gonna hang with me, they had to have 'em, too! Little kids are like that, and this is one of the ways they gain favor with adults. It would be sweet if the kid really liked Randall, and I have seen little kids who knew who he was, including a girl about that same age who ran under a barrier to hug a model of a Dienonychus(Raptor) dinosaur at our state museum, because it was painting in a purple-and-turquoise color scheme, and she thought it was Randall! pitbulllady |

The kids I babysit think Randall is a dragon. (They haven't seen the movie) It's still really cute, even though they know nothing about him. It's almost too cute to the point where I don't think I want to show them the movie because they might be scared of him afterwards. XD

Aww! That is darn cute!
I dunno. I'll have to ask my Sunday School students, but they like Kaa from the jungle book, so they might not mind Randall being a little scar.

Yes. He ought to sue Disney for character defamation for making him a villain instead of a hero (as he was in Kipling's book). Walt couldn't believe audiences would accept a snake hero. And he was featured in the sequel, as well as the cartoon series "Jungle Cubs" (IIRC the title).

Well can't really blame Walt...I mean...the man's practically the father of animation.

^aww, that's so cute.
I don't think is so far fetched that some kids like Randall. I would have loved him when I was 4. Only because I was down hardcore with anything remotely like a dinosaur.

If one watches the 'Jungle Cubs' series, it makes it CRYSTAL clear that Kaa is NOT a villain. One of his best roles is in 'Mondo Mungo', where he befriends a sweet, shy, male mongoose named Mungo, voiced by Adam Wylie, from "Under Wraps", and "Mr. Monk and the Red Herring" (MONK: Season 3, Episode 10). He's actually a kindhearted snake who is mostly naïve, gets bullied by Shere Khan regularly, and is easily embarrassed in most situations... not unlike Randall.
Only in the ORIGINAL film, "The Jungle Book", is Kaa portrayed in a remotely shady light, but 'The Jungle Cubs' series speaks differently. Even in 'The Jungle Book 2', Kaa isn't really evil. Even after getting poked and thrashed to a humiliating degree by Ranjan, and accidentally swallowing a big boulder, he's still got that gentle flare about him that still shows that morally, he's not really a bad guy. |
