So while is not forbidden, is still like courting a girl while wearing only a condom and socks.
Many penguins comment about dancing as a weirdness, and something to be shamed out. Apparently singing is a mandatory duty of every Emperor Penguin citizen. Dancing isn't necessarily forbidden, it's only if you're unable to sing. What the hell was with the premise of this movie? Singing is the center of their culture, but dancing is alien and forbidden? Wouldn't these things tend to evolve together? Even if dancing isn't their way to attract a mate, it shouldn't be so completely unknown and frowned upon if they're such a musical society. Female penguins are kind of busty, actually. It breaks the bones to make it easier to chew. Whales actually bat their prey around like a hackey sack sometimes. And, it's all the more intriguing when you read why that was - the production team realized that whales actually have their own formalized language and dialects, and because of that, they appear with a type of speech all their own. What was more interesting was the fact that they, out of all of the other species in the film, didn't speak. What exactly were those whales trying to accomplish? One of them had Mumble right in his mouth, and all he did was spit him back out and throw him at the other whale.*** Whales play with their food before they eat it - sometimes quite voraciously, as in the film. Seeing the "aliens" first hand would be like a YEC jumping on a time machine and jumping through various years and seeing first hand that evolution is true. Seeing the proof for evolution would be like seeing the boats and random machinery as they did, which didn't sway them, which it shouldn't. Seeing the "aliens" isn't seeing the proof for evolution. They saw the "aliens" right by them and freaked out, doing the only thing that could maybe help them. Even though there is proof right there that there are "aliens," it would take years for the Elders to change their viewpoint. This is the point that I'm trying to drive home. It took decades to go from "God created man, and the evolutionists claiming everyone came from monkeys" to now, which is "There was an intelligent force that guided evolution along." Even with so much proof supporting evolution, there are people who don't accept it. In real life (let me state an example) religious/scientific don't change that fast from polar opposites. What bugs me is that the Elders go from the whole aliens-are-made-up to dancing with everyone in five minutes flat. 
Also, while penguins may waddle when they walk, I've never seen a tap/break dancing penguin. That's why they thought dancing was weird. Penguins in real life (Emperor Penguins anyway) do sing to attract a mate, they don't dance. It was a nice break from the whacky adventures usually seen in this sort of film.

One of the things I loved about this movie was the semi-realistic movements of the penguins and the nods to their mating rituals. Since, in Real Life, penguins are known for their funny, almost dance-y walk, wouldn't it make more sense to make a movie about penguins who dance in the first place, and not ones who sing and think the dancing one is weird?.
