I skipped to a random spot, and lasted about 5 seconds. Two drawings of dicks, 50% scribbles, and a couple frames of just the word PENIS. Yes, this is truly a noteworthy effort.

I’m as equally curious as you, just on the other side of the horseshoe.

Same here. If you skip to a random part of the movie, and move frame by frame, it becomes a game of "spot the penis". Just one or two can be "tolerated", but we're far from that here, so ... My opinion is that it does not really belong in HN

It's a fascinating tech/social experiment. It belongs on HN because it was done and the outcome is what it is.

If you actually want to watch the Bee Movie then watch the original. I doubt generating a watchable alternative was behind anyone's motivation in this.

Because of a penis drawing? Are we in preschool? There have been those ever since caveman times.
I think the point is we're not in preschool, nor are we cave(wo)men, so we don't need the penis drawings.
A penis drawing isn't something that's needed, it's something that happens. Feel free to rail against them in a Kanute-like manner, but learning to cock an eyebrow and say "yeah, that figures" can be self-preserving.

For what it's worth I too prefer the plausible deniability of Georgia O'Keefe's outrageous lies. It's a more sensible chuckle.

No-one's railing against anything.
I was hoping to introduce my old “donging through the millennia” thesis work and ride that hobby horse around the room a little :(
Did the caveman Bee Movie have penises in it? Because then you’d have a really good point.
I'm sure this one had an absurdly short TTP (time to penis).
