That last clip at the aquarium had me cackling. Bro was walking around like he was taking first pick at the buffet table.
That must be the greatest year of the penguins lives not being in an enclosed space and free to go wherever they want
in a way i hope for another pandemic with the same restrictions, because so much fun, wholesome and rare stuff happened. i didnt get laid off work so normal days for me except closed stores
Penguins exploring
Made me smile
Kowalski analysis, Rico search the navigation and entrance
Private: me skipper
Skipper: stay together otherwise you're gonna die
Skipper : start making reports boys , we are goin to highjack this aquarium and free the fishes
Thats so cool
Penguins of Madagascar jokes aside, I can't help but wonder what was actually going through their heads as they explored this completely unfamiliar world full of unique sights, sounds, etc. for the first time in their lives, something that 99.9% of other penguins will never experience.
I love how curious they are.
All I see are two well dressed businessmen
They are real explorers.
Some very cultural people are here
Rico: NEED FISH
As their walking around and moving there heads their like, “Woah what the f.”
PINWINOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOS
Please can we, the People, issue a moratorium on pizzicato stringed instruments being used to designate humour?
It feels vaguely Orwellian to see yet another clip where the viewer is instructed to laugh at something with the insistent and unimaginative plucking of stringed instruments.
