Magic Hat

I can't believe they still made Hot Frosty after this comic came out. At all, really. Even kept the obviously working title.

Now you've got me thinking about re-watching the old Rankin & Bass movie to see if Frosty could canonically take his hat off and hold it in his hand without becoming inanimate. WTF is wrong with me.

So that's where Magic Mike's hat ended up.

So did the twig arm.

I hate the cultural cliche where everyone is expected to act like male nudity is horrifying and dangerous.

I think it's pretty weird in the situation where you're standing in front of a couple of children.

Only because you're from a culture that thinks it's weird. Pretty common in parts of Europe and elsewhere.

Nudity - bad. Murdering an intelligent being - no biggie.

I'm from the UK. I grew up with communal changing rooms and showers at school, but the P.E. teacher would still be in trouble if he got naked with us.

If we wanted to be like Europe culture, we wouldn't have whooped Europe's ass.

What does that even mean?

Europe, the land of one (1) culture.

I wtach too much DougDoug.

When I read"Magic Hat" my mind goes straight to this:

Okay, so in Frosty The Snowman (1969) the answer is inconclusive -- the hat is either always on his head or out of his possession entirely.

But in Frosty's Winter Wonderland (1976), the kids make him a snow-wife and she comes alive through 'the power of love' when he hands her a bouquet of flowers he made out of snow. A short while later, he gets attacked and his hat gets blown off, but instead of getting the hat back his snow-wife makes a flower for him, sticks it in his buttonhole, and brings him back to life with 'the power of love' too. So, yeah: two sentient snowpeople, both hatless.

(At least briefly: he almost immediately gets the hat back anyway.)

Also: they ask the parson to officiate their wedding. He's too racist against snow-people to be willing to do it himself, but, inexplicably, he's happy to help make a snow-parson to officiate instead. They bring that one to life by giving him a Bible. So at that point the whole thing's off the rails and who knows what the Hell the rules are. Frankly, I'm not sure that sequel should count.

He does not suffer. He simply ceases to be.
