The Pebble And The Penguin
A crytical analysis of this classic childrens virginity tale.
By As7
What one must know before partaking in the antarctic coming of age roller-coaster ride that is The Penguin And The Pebble is that it is a relic of times gone by. One must not judge the tale by the morals of the period in which it was produced. A time when man was portrayed as the greatest predator of all and penguins were believed to posess teeth.
Underneath all this ice, though, is a the story of a young and awkward penguin named Huby, doing his darndest to get laid before prom. Now Huby is no Casanova. Casanova was a human being and Huby is a flabby, clueless wimp. At least until one night when a meteor falls from the sky and imparts him with uper powers, namely the power to stalk his love, Marina, from any distance using a glowing fragment of meteoric uranium.
This bauble turns out to be just what Huby needs to steal Marina away from the beefcake of a penguin-slash-werewolf, Drake. You see, Drake is actually a lot like Huby, but evil, and a jock, and probably also a rapist.
But just as Huby is prepared to penguin up and propose to this one true love by presenting her with the creepy cancer-stone from space, the two are separated by the jaws of a lion seal, (probably Drakes father), and a rogue ice flow no doubt set adrift by irresponsible actions of human beings, presented here by penguin smuggling pirates.
Huby's lusty tale would appear to be over, locked in in a cage with only his all seeing pebble for company. He uses it to spy on Marina from time to time and get his penguin rocks off but even that can only provide so much stimulation in a day. Fortuitously, he befriends a surly dwarf, named Rock-O. Rock-O is a penguin of diminutive stature but possesses the tenacity of a wolverine and the wish to one day be able to fly through the air by his own power...which he achieves by the end of this film.
The two pals meander back South across three thousand miles of freezing seas with the help of a commandeered air craft carrier and true friendship, all in an effort to make it back home before the full moon mating ceremony, during which Huby hopes to lose his cherry in front of thousands of other penguins.
He does, and everyone lives happily ever after, except Drake, who probably dies, but he probably deserved it.
So remember, kids! No means no and even penguins can fly if they just try hard enough.

The title of this article links to the full movie on Hulu.
This feature length animation was created by the same team responsible for All Dogs Go To Heaven, another film about animals attempting to get laid.
This film stars a Mr. Belushi, but not the one you would expect.

A blue-footed cunt
