“Children’s Movies”

I have a huge question for the producers of a few “children’s” movies that we all have grown up with.

Why would you make an animated (or not) children’s movie that involves removing a child’s most important and prominent figure in their life, their mother?

I’m such a movie guy… but not your typical male movie type, I engulf myself in movies to a point where I don’t remember what happens in my actual environment while a movie is playing. And yes, I do cry in parts of movies that you’re supposed to… and I do get scared… and I do like action flicks too, but I wouldn’t say that I only watch action movies. I let my emotions feed off of the plots…

With that… the movies that tear me up the most… are

SPOILER if you’ve lived under a rock

The Land Before Time

An American Tail

Bambi

All of which remove the mother out of the situation. I’m not sure about y’all, but that was one of my worst fears growing up (yeah yeah, I was a momma’s boy)…

Ugh. I don’t get it.
