The two rhynos are gay, literally.


After having watched this movie many many times I have come to a conclussion that the two rhynos, Carl and Frank are GAY (as in homosexual). Oh and one more observation, Carl is a black dude and Frank's white. Look at how their "faces" are drawn.
Anybody gonna back me up ? :)

In the scene where Diego first meets the Mammoth and the Sloth and tries to take the baby from them, he says
DIEGO-"Are you a couple?"
MAMMOTH-"No,we are not a couple."
DIEGO-"It's alright if you need to adopt since you can't have one of your own."

It seems like he was implying that the Mammoth and the Sloth were a gay couple so they needed to adopt a child since they couldn't have one of their own.

Lol, I haven't seen this movie in a few years but I remember my friends and I saying how the Rhinos were gay. Especially when one says, "He ruined our salad!" kind of like a vally girl.
yeah, even if they're not I'm going to pretend they are because it's funnier that way.

It's evolution, baby. So mutate or step aside.

I'm a slash-fan and I didn't see it.

These things are not intent: you see what you want to see. It differs for each person.

I doubt there was a whole lot of thought put into the whole rhino thing. The way they talked about the last dandelion and "he ruined our salaaaaad!" made me laugh. Maybe THAT is what they were going for. Maybe they used the stereotypical gay voice because most of the time, it makes people laugh. Was that not the goal of the movie?

The rhinos are actually meant to be psychologist's Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung. Don't believe me? Read my other post. (Freud anyone?)

Haha, I never noticed but it makes sense now that you mention it.

I immediately knew they were written to be gay. I didn't pick up on the racial aspect though.
