>>44258Bad Boy Bubby is a curious one. I think they put some thought in that, figured a couple of motifs and they followed those consequently.
Bubby is a Janus like character, he is a child and a man. Deprived from opportunities to learn and social interactions, he follows those role models he sees and fits himself into the only society he knows. He also experiments with the knowledge he gains, and makes discoveries on his own. Then the world opens up suddenly where he meets others and he uses the tools he was given. But he also gets new role models, and his mind, freed, now sucks the new information in itself like a sponge.
In the new world he tries to find his place, not consciously, he floats along with the flow of events, and everything turns out well, giving the story a fairy tale air to it.
The aforementioned trick with the directors also piles a bit of surrealness on top, and unpredictability. Couple of times one can ask "how have we got to this scene?" or "what's going on?" since they were seemingly thrown in without any prelude.
Nice touch adding the mongs and the scenes with them. Those were very different from the normal flow of the movie.
I think he is kind of a Mowgli of sort as well.
Pic #4 seems like a false advertisement.
