Tell me have you seen the marvelous breadfish swimming in the ocean waters? The movie Breadfish features a single underwater scene of fish embedded in loaves of bread drifting past the viewer. It has looping music (describing the marvelous breadfish as an inverse sandwich for fishermen and sharks) but the loop is much shorter than those of the most famous online cartoons. It is also reminiscent of the After Dark flying toaster screen savers. As of November 2006 Breadfish has been viewed 1.96 million times on the official website and possibly many more on other sites. The cartoon has generated much controversy in online forums over whether the lyrics refer to a marvelous breadfish or a motherless breadfish. The latter name which is largely believed to be a misunderstanding of the lyrics is often the preferred understanding of the lyrics causing disappointment to those who learn the breadfish are marvelous instead of motherless. It has even been the namesake of at least one trivia team. Lyrics: Tell me have you seen the marvelous Breadfish; Swimming in the ocean water; Have you seen the marvelous Breadfish; It's like an inverse sandwich; An owe for fisherman and sharks.
