Hmmm That is an interesting point. Never really saw it that way and its kinda ironic considering the trend with a lot of movies and television shows seem to be as time goes on you can get away with more and more stuff. Also umm I know you aren't an expert or anything but do you know if any of the older movies have a conflict that isn't "man vs. man"(or in some cases anthromorphic equilvant of man). I mean when I think about it seems like all Disney/Pixar movies have that conflict. You know there's always a villian not just a character fighting their own demons or braving the elements. I might have to check out that Watership Down movie and All Dogs Go To Heaven for that matter (kinda remember some parts but not much).
Yeah, we're all gonna get a lot of things done tomorrow.

WATERSHIP DOWN
I read this post a long time ago, and never thought twice about some of the movies you discussed. Stumbling upon your page again, I recently watched Watership Down. I was very impressed with it, not just the story, but the artwork. The fact that it looks so well done and that it took time to do it...not saying that today's childrens' movies don't take work, but I mean if you just look at older stuff...in my opinion, the older stuff looked better.
And yeah, I agree 100% with the getting children ready for the real world: these new childrens' movies are just little fairy tales that feed the imagination; not preparing children at all for the cold dark reality waiting for them when they are older.
A couldnae agree more!
I saw both Watership Down & All Dogs Go To Heaven at a very early age and they are very gritty in comparison to the more modern films.
I much! prefer the old ones! =]
i totally agree with you
Your absolutely right...thats all I can say...
(and I love 'All dogs go to Heaven',)
A secret missing episode of Madagascar needs to be made.
I Don't know if this has anything to do with this post.
There is somthing very strange that keeps happening on Newgrounds Rumble!!!
What happens is, a screen pops up and says game spript can not be read and computer ect. , and when i click on the Yes button the game just goes nuts!!
Pictures start appearing and dissapearing and weird beeping noises start and the game becomes un rersponsive. i dont know if its my computer but you sould see if somthing is wrong.
Here's a recommendation: A Boy Named Charlie Brown. I haven't seen this in a long time, but this is how a kids movie with a deep message should be.
today EVERYTHING is to cutesy thay limit gore down little nosebleeds and such
Don't worry about that vhs hahahah <a href="http://www.amazon.com/All-Dogs-Heaven-Loni-Anderson/dp/B000056H26/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1248584996&sr=8-1">http://www.amazon.com/All-Dogs-Heaven -Loni-Anderson/dp/B000056H26/ref=sr_1 _1?ie=UTF8&qid=1248584996&sr=

Hey Negative, how bout those medals eh ? =D
i most say that was long what you wrote but hey u certainly made me think and i must say your right man!
im 17 but i agree were getting a little to be as you said "fairy and gumdrop bullshit"
Whats with the Newgrounds Gateway or something like that in NGR,a hint or something?
the bloody rabbit picture is from Watership Down? never seen it but that is intense o.o
Wow nostalgia train hit me, haven't seen all dogs go to heaven in some time, I love that movie
Just an idea for Newgrounds Rumble. Why did u not add the Rage kid from Dad n Me???? Why?!!!! He's so awesome!!!! Anyways I thought of everything for him.
Name: Kid i guess but I think his name is Rage
Strengths: High attack, very high HP
Weaknesses: Poor aerial combat, very slow
Apperances: Dad n Me, Dad n Me videos
Ammo: Throwing dead kids (they do 15 damage each and there are 3 for each ammo powerup (this is just my idea u can make it whatever u want)
This is just an idea, but I would like it if u put the kid on NG Rumble. He is one of NG's most famous figures.
You'll have to hope in vain that your future children won't end up being humiliated by being called an "old fogey in a kid's body" for being raised strictly on what the child's parents grew up with!

Whats wrong with every parent and "society" kids are always thinking that the world is perfect, peaceful, friendly and thats not good at all....makes kids stupid and doesnt know anything about true trust or friendship at all! because of the movies and tv programs...kids think that the one they met a minute ago is his/her friend and thats just wrong and they think that if they have a problem anyone will be kind enough to help and thats a big lie in this world dammit! and what will happen to a kid that looks at those kind of unrealistic movies and they have a big problem like child molest or rape....he/she will become an emo when he/she becomes a teenager and become a burden and a parasite to everyone else....and we wont develop this way! everything is becoming so stupid around kids...and kids themselves too...and that pisses everyone...
