Do not show the character of Pepé Le Pew

Pepé Le Pew, the appetizing zorrillo of French origin created by Warner Bros. in the animated stories Looney Tunes and which is characterized by pursuing a path to be free of charge that can not resist its songs, it is done.

The caricature is one of the most recent animated characters to make a debit revision to the “normalize” messages. In his case, violence violates the woman.

In recent days, Warner has announced a decision to engage people precisely to “normalize” incorrect messages. And now, the director of the movie “Space Jam: A New Legacy”, Malcolm D. Lee, edits the scene in which this character appears.

Following the transcendence, Pepé Le Pew starred in a sequel to the animated film that will be released on July 16 in the movie “Casablanca” in which he represents a bartender who coquets with a woman. In a sequence repeated from its creation in 1945, the zorrillo began to wear the brazier of the woman, but she went apart and galloped with a sill; le arroja su trago y lo abofetea, dejándolo dando vueltas en su asiento.

At the moment, the legal LeBron James and Bugs Bunny is que están buscando aa Lola Bunny. Pepe les dice que sabe dondde estla ella y paso les cuente que la Penelope gata (el persona que sufre su hostigamiento en los munequitos) presenta una order de restriction in su contra. Entonces LeBron James advised that he could not talk to others without his consent.

The decision to withdraw the scene at the behest of Greice Santo (“Jane the Virgin”), who was the woman of the woman who approached Pepé, because as the victim of sexual harassment is considered that in the scene the corridor finally received his merecido.

Although it is assured that it is not a related decision, it is worth noting that Pepe Le Pew’s elimination of “Space Jam 2” coincides with the publication of an opinion column in The New York Times last week, in that Charles Blow assured that Pepe Le Pew “normalized the culture of the violations” and that he led a discussion about the social representations that have the muñequitos in popular culture.

In recent days, Dr. Seuss Enterprises announced that it would begin selling its books as “representing individuals in a straightforward and erroneous manner”.

In his column, Blow states that Le Pew intends to have another person of repetitive manner and without his consent, and moreover that she intends to marry, he does not give and includes the girl with love.

The columnist also criticized the representations made by Speedy Gonzalez, who helped “popularize the corrosive stereotype of the bourgeois and lethargic Mexicans”; or the secondary character that appeared in “Tom and Jerry” known as Mammy Two Shoes, stigmatized as “a black corpse who has been raped”.

Pepe Le Pew’s elimination is not the only change in the “Space Jam” proximity, but Lola Bunny’s character will have a less sexualized image.

The director Lee was the person in charge of the change, and he thought the rest of the anthropomorphic Lucian debuts had an infantile aspect, the attributes and the costume of Lola Bunny that deprived her of sexual characteristics.

“Lola Bunny was very sexualized, like a Betty Boop combined with Jessica Rabbit”, explains the filmmaker in the weekly Entertainment Weekly.

Among the details that surprised Lee from the previous story, trained in 1996, is that the rest of the characters called Lola Bunny with applause like “customer” and “the canopies of the canastas”, in addition to which his wardrobe will be significantly shorter than the rest.

“We are in 2021. It is important to reflect the authenticity of female characters and abilities,” said the director.
