Compare that to something like The Bad Guys, where the fart jokes aren't a one-off subtle thing, but they visually take up the entire screen for an extended period of time, repeatedly throughout the entire runtime of the film, and it becomes pretty indicative of the movie's sense of humor as a whole, nearly to the same extent that food sex jokes were the basis of Sausage Party's humor
Yeah I think this is something that's important to me, I generally find the handling of all these "taboo subjects" better the less the thing is commented upon, so GWH having nudity that's fairly incidental is better to me than TBG making a whole
deal
out of Awkwafina trying not to drown in fart gas, which just got tedious, but to further defend it I just feel the fart scenes are the most blatant example of what I didn't like about the movie throughout. There's also a scene where either the Piranha or the Shark, I can't remember which, argues with Moss about whether a rock looks like a butt, and my problem with that scene definitely isn't the mention of butts, I mean I like looking at butts, it's just that they keep going back and forth and back and forth about whether it's a heart or a butt and it just draws out a joke that wasn't very clever in the first place. There's no sense of comic timing, and when you contrast it against something like
The Big Bad Fox
on the same list, involving the same animals, and also having Bad in the title but having a so much more disciplined mastery of comic timing it just comes off as really lame.
