Run Rabbit Run
...the robust rural scenes of the original books, which included Peter’s father being baked in a pie and Peter losing his blue coat while being chased by Farmer McGregor wielding a garden rake, will be cut.
“Peter Rabbit running away from a farmer with a shotgun would now be inappropriate,” Lord Alli, Chorion chairman, said. “We’re trying to avoid frightening anyone.”
I wonder if there is a market for a live action remake of the original stories.

"'Peter Rabbit running away from a farmer with a shotgun would now be inappropriate,' Lord Alli, Chorion chairman, said. 'We’re trying to avoid frightening anyone.'"
Here at the Marlborough Pub in North Gower, Ontario, folks would call anyone who uttered a statement like that a complete wiener.

I agree, a shotgun is no good here, it makes too much mess. An airgun is a far better choice.
