Did Disney create the Big Bad Wolf? I had always understood that the 3 Little Pigs was a traditional story -- IHCOYC 20:30 30 Jun 2003 (UTC)

The Three Little Pigs page says that the story goes back to the 18th century. I know that Disney has bought up a lot, but do they also own the 18th Century? There does seem to be a discrepancy here. -- IHCOYC 00:51 1 Jul 2003 (UTC)

Was Disney first to portray the Big Bad Wolf as an anthromorphic caracter?(AndrewAnorak 09:12, 28 October 2007 (UTC))Reply

Who's making the recent Doctor Who-specific edits to this page? Each of them clearly mentioning Rose Tyler; including a masked reference in the current page. Given that the BBC's Bad Wolf website links directly to this Wikipedia article, I smell a small conspiracy going on. Well, tomorrow's the airdate of the season finalé... and all will be revealed.

Whoever it is, it's a vandal, and will be treated as such. --khaosworks 00:57, Jun 18, 2005 (UTC)

Hey, small point, feel free to ignore it, but do we know for a fact that the bartender in "Shrek 2" is really transgendered? While the Bartender clearly has a man's build and vioce I thought the joke was that "she" is an ugly step-sister from Cinerella and therefore unatractive. However I recognize the point of the citation is that many people took the character to be transgendered, as the case very well maybe. I just thought I'd point out the ambiguity for the record.

Wonderfull article

Hello. I must say the lead image is somewhat inadequate. Though it's fine art, I don't think a rear-end view of the wolf is of much encyclopedic value. I do, however, like the aspect that the wolf is interacting with Riding Hood. So here's my suggestion: Change the image. Since the nursery rhyme cites things like, "What big eyes you have! What big teeth you have!", and these are all features central to the character, and are in the front, not the rear. And like the current image, let it be where the wolf has some interaction with Little Miss. Thoughts? Opinions? --PEWTHLE talk contribs 20:36, 9 May 2013 (UTC)Reply

In identifying people, we look at faces. With wolves, it's typical for one to smell the other's ass. Granted, that's a bit of a stupid argument, since wolves don't read Wikipedia, and if they did, they can't smell the pictures. But on the other hand, could human viewers distinguish The Big Bad Wolf from a regular wolf from his face? While his teeth and eyes are big, relative to grandma's, I don't think they're particularly big by wolf standards. I think this picture adequately conveys the "big" and "bad" aspects of this wolf by his subtly intimidating posture.
But if you have a picture in mind, feel free to share here. Could be better. InedibleHulk (talk) 00:25, 10 May 2013 (UTC)Reply
