Funny, they were rockin’ the droog look last night and Malcolm McDowell was on a talk show at the same time here in Canada.

Yeah, but Vampires and Zombies aren’t real. Rapists are. Also, is MJ even real anymore?…I’m pretty sure he also doesn’t exist..lol.

I am usually never sensitive…this just struck me as a little odd, that’s all. I’m just saying that I, personally, would not dress my child up as a droog.

That being said, I did enjoy the book and the movie. I studied it in my literature classes in college.

I think it’s adorable. The little boy is a Joel mini-me in that pic. I’ve never seen Clockwork Orange, but I don’t see anything wrong with dressing up as a character. Maybe he represents a innocent version of a Droog.

No one’s saying the boy isn’t adorable – he is. Some of us just disagree with the choice of a droog costume, that’s all. Why aren’t people allowed to express their honest reaction to posts? No one was asking Trent to take it down or anything. Damn.

Agreed! I thought this wee one was adorable until y’all brought me down. It’s just a costume, but you gotta love the grouping in of MJ with vampires lol

That little boy makes a far better droog than the celebs! The glass of milk it the perfect touch!!!

Trent, I agree with you to a point, but not in this case. Sorry. I totally respect your opinion, but I don’t think it’s cool for people to dress up as rapists – fictional or not. It’s crass and tasteless. That’s just my opinion, but as a rape survivor, I take offense to this. And if people want to slag me off as being too sensitive, that’s their right, as well. *shrug*

While I understand where Amy and Aiden are coming from, I think it’s fine for a kid to dress up like a droog just like they might dress up as a vampire, zombie or Michael Jackson. Costumes are meant to be fun, not necessarily exact representations of the original character

I’m with Amy. The little boy is absolutely adorable, but I’m sorry: droogs are murdering rapists. Dressing up your baby as one is not cute.

Hmmm…I’m not sure I’d dress my son up like a droog…seeing as how they raped women, beat up people, and the milk was “drugged.” Cute kid though.

Thank you for enlightening me:) I will look into the novel :)

I suggest you read the original novel by Anthony Burgess anyway before ever seeing the movie version, although it’s a cult film and one of Stanley Kubrick’s best productions. He had the film banned in the UK because of it’s violent scenes. The “droogs” was the slang name for the gang of friends who are lead by the main character of the story, a young man called Alex, who was played by British actor Malcom McDowell in the movie.

what’s a droog? I know…I haven’t watched Clockwork Orange before:(

Very cute! Although this little guy will have to wait a long time to ever watch “A Clockwork Orange”, as it’s a violent movie that was even banned in the UK by it’s own director!
I have to say this, but Nicole Richie is looking way too skinny again. She needs to eat more!

Godm Nicole looks really skinny in that picture…

And that baby picture could quite possibly be the cutest droog known to man.
