Babar - City Ways (1 of 3)

[hankheavy]

Isn't there an episode where the hunter comes back? And this time he has a camp with even more hunters backing him up? And in the end the whole camp burns down?

[MeFrom07]

@hankheavy The episode where the hunter's camp burns down is "Babar's Triumph"

[zgrillo2004]

2 people are rhinos

[tutudragon16]

"when i saw my mother die by the hands of the hunter" -LOL THANSK FOR BEING SO BLUNT

[TheCoolperson1996]

babar is adorable when he's saying hi to everyone

[werewolf478]

Ugh I'm only here to remember the TRUE and REAL Babar that was just 2D and simple. Not that crap thats on Disney (just found out that Disney did a re-make of this wonderful show) Trust me you don't want to see that series.

[LuxVertas]

@werewolf478 *Sigh* how bad is it? Should I prepare a dark room and a ass load of prozac?

[SimbaProductionsXoXo]

I can't believe Disney junior scammed this show.. :'(

[thewewguy8t88]

anyone else think seeing babr just walk around the park for 20 min would have been awsome.

[FluffMaster101]

This is exactly why I hate the police!

[JonasClark]

Anyone else think of Thomson & Thompson (Tintin) at 5:00?

[CrazyYouFan878]

I wish I had a little Babar running around my city! :D

[42whatelse]

I think that Babar may have came down to Paris, France or maybe Brussels, Belgium.

[Furienna]

Indeed, in which country is this supposed to take place? There's a jungle next to a city, where everybody is white?

[tokee1234567]

@Furienna it's France I think. the original books are in French

[bobbihachet]

Why is Pom so worried about impressing two older kids? His father's the King! He's a prince for Pete's sake!

[hiimjenki2]

monday to friday on abc3 at 3:25 babar is on

[Crimpyiff]

Those kids were largely unconcerned by a talking elephant using the play equipment and playing baseball. I think I'll just defer to SometimesIAmBored's comment =P

5:01 - Top of the mornin' to ye, talking elephant.

"Let's see... apples... bananas... dates... carrots..." No, actually, those are all just oranges >_>

9:02 STOP RIGHT THERE CRIMINAL SCUM

But, uh, who the hell draws a pistol over a case of someone stealing fruit?

10:20 /facepalm

[bluecatcinema]

Nobody seems the least bit surprised at the notion of a talking elephant, which implies everyone is aware that they can talk and think like humans, yet there are still people who hunt them?!

[DimeraFan28]

lol, omg, lamo.

[akiza01]

so cute and awsome!!!

[babarbcn]

i like it

[gaiusscipio]

Babar is from Zamunda. If anyone remembers Eddie Murphy's "Coming to America" when he's walking with the King (JE Jones) a small elephant crosses his path and he says "Hello Babar" (LOL)

[andrewervindowle]

Naked Babar Without Clothes

[eclaemapnboerll]

Babar is just your friendly neighbourhood elephant! :)

[LittleBloodyFairy]

From the jungle to france...hmmm, geogaphy not a high point here lol

[Ainurah]

I know I'm probably looking into this way too much, but I still find it really, really strange how the elephants (and the other animals, for that matter) go from living in the jungle and walking on all fours to living in buildings and houses in the jungle and walking on two legs.

Oh well - I still love Babar and always will! <3

[stargirlsusan]

Truth is I don't care if this all makes sence I love the story and cutie awesome babar

[gundamWWW]

8:59 That fat ass Parsian Cop is soo stupid! Why the hell is pulling a gun on a baby elephant? For stealing fruit?!

[stargirlsusan]

i know, poor babar he was already scared.

[StefanoFan27]

whatever happened to the ole saying, "Be yourself", and "To Thy Own Self Be True".

[LaurenWestoby]

i used to love this dearly when i was little

[chantelletori]

I love it how nobody finds it weird about an elephant roaming around and speaking - it's so cute, I love this show! <3

[CrazySexyCoolmeisha]

@chantelletori lol i thought the same thing none of them found it weird that there was a talking elephant

[SometimesIAmBored]

As a 20-year Babar fan, I sometimes wonder why, if he's from somewhere in Africa, does this look like he just walked into London or Amsterdam. Then I realized that that's not as weird as a talking elephant, so I gave up. The books were weird, the show was weird, but it was totally AWESOME!

[jarvoll88]

Babar arrives in Paris to meet Madame

[estherliewian]

@SometimesIAmBored Maybe it might not be in London or Amsterdam. Maybe in South Africa Johanesberg (not sure of the spelling)?

[kamalus85]

@SometimesIAmBored FYi, many African cities are built in European style. So actually it's no that weird.

[OrfeoEnajenado]

Madame reminds is so alike to my mum...she's so lovely!

[topclaw]

Oh I get it. Babar's an arfrique de merde disrupting the social order of les personnes francaises normelles.

[OrfeoEnajenado]

Babar is what he is: a small elephant overwhelmed by the human world ¬¬

[tokee1234567]

he's just a new guy in a new environment. no need to be so crude about it geez. if you went to another country you might be treated the same you know

[BMAIVALENTINE]

why is arthur so small? he's like ment to be the same age if not a little younger than babar yet he's so much smaller? he's like a midget elephant

[yomamalikesu]

Me and my litle brother love babar!!

[StefanoFan27]

lol.

[seatbelttruck]

Oh yeah. An orange theif. A baby Elephant orange theif. Definitely dangerous enough to pull a gun on.

[markkkkkola]

LOL

[SonicArmony]

Babar est tròp mignon^_^

[yaskalu]

ya great to see something of old. I used to adore babar wen i was a kid. Super posting.

[d2eux]

very good episode. I despise the politically correct who call this propaganda.

[theeviltwaz]

yes, I'm with you on this one!

Babar's not a political treatise. What it did was provide kids with role models, and lessons they could take with them into their lives - that's how my dad saw it when I was about 8-10. Unlike the newer cartoons, it didn't patronise children either, and assumed they were intelligent.

Rant over!

[d2eux]

you are spot on, babar's not an apologia for colonialism - people analyze too much these days.

[stargirlsusan]

i agree, what ever happened on the past is history, babar is not about colonialism, is about so much more valuable lessons.

[ComradeSephiroth]

"What's a dollar?"

"100 pennies."

"But what's a penny"

"1/100 of a dollar."

"But what's a dollar?"

"100 pennies."

"But what's a penny?"

"1/100 of a dollar."

LOL this is what my grandpa used to say when we watched this episode.

[Lucy0891]

<3 <3 <3

[Quyx121]

I love the guys with the hats at 4:59.

[thewewguy8t88]

they kind of remind me of the tomson tiwns from tintin.

[hornean]

Did you hear the instrument sound at 2:56, that sounds like the 80's instrument.

[ayumihamano]

oh I remember watching this when I was a child. thanks for posting
