Spoilers -- I'm usually skeptical of claims of racism,


. . . but didn't it strike anyone else as odd that Fred and Wanda didn't end up adopting "Slam" at the end? Instead he's seen being adopted by some random black family.

At any rate, unlike many, I did enjoy the movie overall, but I don't see why they wouldn't have had Fred and Wanda adopt "Slam".


Is everyone in this house a total nutzoid or is it just me?

I think it was better that he was adopted into a different family, but Fred was there for him as a baseball coach. It shows not only Fred is still there for him but other kids that needed guidance.

I do think it was a little weird that the only black elf was the DJ, but not sure I would call it racist.

I presume Fred did not adopt Slam because one day Slam will get very old and wonder why his dad still looks the same!

Its that man again!!

Because integration just doesn't work.
