Jerry Seinfeld’sBee Moviewas destined to be one of the most entertaining and hilarious films ever created. The film featured itself with an absurd and intriguing plot, and remains a top-notch product of Seinfeld’s humor, as he showcased his wit with clever wordplay. As a result, the animated film was loved by its young and old audiences.
To add to the film’s success, it became a never-ending meme factory. While the animated film was meant to be a family-friendly movie, it featured several erotic undertones when Barry B. Benson and Vanessa Bloome were shown together. Jerry Seinfeld realized his mistake, but but he was too proud with his work, hence, he decided to give a half-baked apology which might not resonate well with some of its viewers.
Jerry Seinfeld Gives a Lukewarm Apology for Having“S**ual Undertones”in HisBee Movie
JerrySeinfeld’sBee Movieremains one of the most bizarre and crazy films that is a meme factory.The plot revolves around Barry B. Benson, abee,who has recently graduated fromhis college and is going to dedicate his lifeto being a honey manufacturer.However, when Barry B. Benson left the hive, he encountered Vanessa Bloome, a florist, and developed a relationship with her.
The plot gets bizarre from their relationship because Seinfeld decided to add some inappropriate jokes and moments in thefilm,which would be wrong for children to see. TheComedianactor was present during theDuke Commencement Address, where he apologized for the“s**ual undertones“presented in the film. He said,
“Imade a cartoon movie about bees you may have watched as a child,”he said.“If any of you felt slightly uncomfortable about the sexual undertones in the relationship between Barry the bee and Vanessa, the florist who saves his life, I would like to apologize for that now.”
However, the apology soon turned shallow because despite acknowledging the problem, he will keep things as it is, as he continued,“I may not have calibrated that perfectly, but I would not change it.”
To support his pointJerry Seinfeldsaid,
“The slightly uncomfortable feeling of awkward humor is OK.It’snot something you need to fix.”
Moreover, he admires the modern generation because of their“ambitions to create a more just and inclusive society.”He advised the graduating class not to lose their sense of humor because“not a lot of life makes sense for you to be able to survive it without humor.”

The writer shared that the team recognized the importance of removing romantic elements and emphasizing a friendshipdynamic,due to the film having elements of“Beestiality.”Feresten said,
“Often we would lose sight of those characters in the room.
