The stop-motion RudolphTheRedNosedReindeer special gets an unhinged and hilarious twist with videos recreating the beloved Christmas character as a raptor.
A stop-motion recreation of Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer turns the classic character into a raptor, and it is unhinged Christmas fun. The fictional reindeer, originally created by Robert L. May in 1939, has become one of the most recognizable figures of the holiday season. With his own song and a number of movies and television specials, most notably 1964's Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, his story is well-known, especially among children.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY Now, one Twitter account, But With Raptors, has put a twist on the story of Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, imagining the character as a dinosaur. Brought to life in a style similar to the 1964 stop-motion special depicting Rudolph and others, the two clips feature a small, green raptor with a shiny red nose. It is pointed out in one, with Santa eventually taking notice, as a man hilariously comments on the fact that he is a dinosaur.
The tale of Rudolph would likely change in some regards if he had been a raptor because, as the stop-motion video and other Twitter users point out, his response to the constant ridicule would be different. One of the clips reveals that his peers were unaware of what they were getting into, alluding to the idea that Rudolph might fight back, and given that he is a dinosaur, odds are it would end poorly for them if he did.
With all the recent twists being made to famous Christmas stories, it is amusing to see a classic like Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer changed in this kind of way. Interestingly enough, this recreation of Rudolph as a raptor may strike a chord with others, as the message embedded in it, while hilariously updated, still remains the same.
