I just find funny the fact that Ilumination cut this song out of their movie because it would be more of a ""self-criticism""

[@Sputterbugz]

tbf it would have been a sore thumb among the rest of the movie. the movie itself is way too corporate. theyd have to actually stick to the themes of the lorax and start their movie production over to include this song.

​​@@Sputterbugz yea they couldnt just make an "corporations dont know better we are sorry we poisoned the water supplies,we never wanted to do it" film's probably most remenbered character with a song wich tells "we dont care lmao and we know you getting poisioned, also well make something more controversial so noone realised what we did" to the same character, hell if was the corporation i woulndt wante to make an self sabotage dilm for me

Hell, I'd say the two songs complement each other. HBCIB feels like the Once-ler downplaying the damage he does to the environment, whereas this one has him straight up try to justify what he is doing, claimimg that his company is just as much part of nature as everything else

[@Mewkityy]

​@@kichiroumitsurugi4363 in my opinion How Bad Can I Be pushes the narrative that companies don't understand the damage that they're doing, they do, or at least are climate change deniers which is a whole nother issue.

You know, I think both this AND How Bad Can I Be could have been in the movie. Have a shorter version of HBCIB aimed directly at the Lorax in the “I’ve just cut down one! I’m doing no harm!” Scene, and then, when things truly get out of hand, have Biggering! Edit: I forgot to explain why. Have just the first verse of HBCIB with the “there’s a principle of nature” part, and then, later in the movie, after the Lorax’s part in Biggering, have the OnceLer say “Did you not listen to me the FIRST time we had this argument?” And sing the “principle of nature” part from Biggering.

Yes. This. _Biggering_ is not only a fantastic song, but the existence of _How Bad Can I Be?_ As a lighter, more sanitized version of it actually adds to its impact. Having the audience first hear _How Bad Can I Be?_ and then later on get a darker, realer version of it would have a jaw-dropping effect. I'd also keep the line "Who cares if a few trees are dying?" in _How Bad Can I Be?_ it pairs nicely with the line "Who cares if _some things_ are dying?!" in _Biggering._

What difference would it make if this came before Despicable Me?

[@notanawkwardname]

I love the visual combination with the lyrics at 4:30. When the lyrics "Who cares if some things are dying?" comes up, the Lorax saves a barbaloot from being killed by a machine. It implies that a few have been killed before or after, which makes it even darker (and thus more amazing) with this taken into mind. I would have loved the dark tone of the original animation in the movie, with a bigger focus on the original story. It's annoying how much the new version centers on a plot that didn't even exist in the book. Though it adds a bit of insight into the lasting effects caused by the Onceler's actions, the movie barely touches down on the original story. Which means it can barely even be called an "adaptation". We need yet another remake, one including this tone and Biggering.

I love how 2012 The Lorax couldn't have been a worse adaptation. Dr. Seuss book/ 1972 movie try to express how the Once-ler is not an "person", it's a company. That's why he is never represented fully, and only his hands, because he hasn't a personality, he only thinks and works for money, and biggering. Talking about Biggering, giant mistake of Ilumination to cut this song out of the movie. Now, on the 2012 adaptation, they made everything look more kid-friendly, giving the Once-Ler a personality and even making him likable, because of 2 little factors: -This would make a big Self-Critic -merch 2 things that the original story tries to criticise.

biggering gives us a villain who knows what he's doing. it gives us a villain who doesn't care. it mimics billionaires and corporations who own sweatshops, who underpay their workers, who pollute the air and the ground and want to build fucking factory towns to expand their operations. they don't care who they have to step on, who they have to destroy, to get on top. in a film where biggering is his theme, this is the onceler. how bad can i be gives us a villain who honestly doesn't get it. he's deluding the public (with lines like "a portion of proceeds go to charity"), but he's also deluding himself. we see a man who's corrupting himself with greed and doesn't realize it until it's too late. the lyrics would be more powerful if it had a similar tune to this song, but it's vaguely reminiscent of modern pop and doesn't pack nearly the same punch -- and since the song grows gradually darker, we still get that idea that he just really, really doesn't _get it._ we deserved a film that told billionaires to go shove it. what we got was a watered-down version of something that could've been great, just so it would be more digestible. the original message is what makes kids' movies memorable even years after they're released. the easy one, it's forgettable.

[@grim9970]

I find this song with this animation very dark especially with the oncelers hands being the only thing shown in his appearance it give it a more dark and greedy take maybe showing how the hands are used to touch and take things...

[@phantomfire5013]

The point of the onceler is that he could be anyone, which is why only his gloved hands and arms are shown, because it could be you or me under those gloves. To go further, the road to hell is paved with good intentions. The Onceler isn't a bad person, he's a completely average person who's stumbled upon a golden goose, and his indecision and rationalisations and cavalierness have inadvertently resulted in the destruction of the environment. That's why I'm not a super big fan of the Biggering song in the story sense, because it does makes the Onceler seem self-aware, and doesn't carry the idea that doing nothing isn't enough super well.

@@phantomfire50131:43 the Lorax explains Onceler's situation, it's his Pride and greed that caused it. It was because of his pride, ego and greed that he did all that, when he got rich with the Thneeds.

Hey, listen up, meathead I'm going to say this once, and I'm not gonna repeat it Greed ya see, it's like a little pet, alright? And the more and more and more that you go and feed it The more hungry it'll get But you know, you really can't blame greed No, that's stupid You see, it's gotta worm inside Oh yeah, that's right It's one that always needs to feed And it is never satisfied You get it? But the more you try to find it The more it likes to hide Now listen that is nasty little worm And I like to call it pride See, now that's why you're biggering Listen here, idiot I'm figuring on biggering But that biggering's just triggering more biggering Got that? Alright

[@zsaidmiranda4971]

Yup, when the people making the movie asked for a song about the onceler's greed, they came out with Biggering. But the song was good, it described greed so good that the company realized how the song described themselves, so they rewrited the song and that's what "How bad can i be" is.

The slower pace of teh song helps with one other aspect, it's often very easy to lose track of how bad things are getting because it sneaks up.

I feel like how bad can I be and biggering could have existed together. How bad can I be showing the greed blinding the onceler to his actions, and then biggering showing him slowly realizing the damage he’s done, but choosing to continue anyway

​@@juanluisisaiasgameplays6604hubiese sido la misma película solo que con la canción incluída. Ahora, el impacto hubiera sido otro. De todas maneras me gusta más la canción con esta adaptación animada porque se ve mucho más cruda y oscura al ver al Once-Ler sin rostro y retratado no como una persona sino más bien como una empresa.

being honest, even now, this song almost disturbs me, because of how dark it sounds. it almost gives me anxiety, although it would have been better to use in the movie

Siempre se me quedaran grabadas aquellas palabras que dijo el Lorax y es que el dijo: "Has talado hasta el ultimo árbol, tal vez eso te Detenga". Es dificil tragarse esta dura y cruel realidad pero la verdad es que los magnates del mundo estan destruyendo la tierra por que piensan que tienen el poder y el control sobre todo solo por que son grandes empresarios multimillonarios que con dinero pueden comprar lo que sea para quedar libres de cualquier castigo, las otras personas son los débiles que no les importa nada de la naturaleza y que solo les importa ellos mismos y sus seres queridos y que por miedo y temor a los magnates estan sometidos a sus ordenes y el trabajo mal pagado, lo unico que les importa es ganar dinero por muy poco que sea, son personas que se dejan comprar por salir de la pobreza, el otro tipo de personas son las que quieren vivir libres sin importarles nada son los esclavos de la flojera y no les gusta mancharse las manos ni mover ni un solo dedo pero su lengua trabaja mil veces mejor criticando y quejandose por todo, otras personas son ambientalistas y defensores de los derechos humanos y del medio ambiente que luchan contra un gobierno corrupto y luchan por el bien comun, estas son poquisimas por que siempre estan siendo amedrentadas por los magnates y el gobierno, son lo que terminan siendo gasificados, golpeados, arrestados, humillados, mojados con chorros de agua para eliminar su manifestacion en contra de lo que el gobierno hace y como se somete ante el poder que le ofrecen los magnates con el oro, la plata oh diamantes que les ofrecen para tenerlos como sus aliados, es muy complicado ver nuestro mundo como la realidad que es y que sera mas si las cosas no comienzan a mejorar y las redes sociales nos usan para mantenernos distraidos y esclavizados al contenido entretenido que nos ofrecen, que solo lo usan para no dejarnos ver esta realidad y aunque muchas veces nosotros no queremos ver la realidad y nos distraemos con cualquier cosa, mi padre me dijo una vez: "El ser humano es destructor de su propio mundo" y ahora que lo pienso tiene mucha razon con lo que dijo, asi veo mi realidad actual. Saludos de Paz y Bien.
