Lol, im replying anyway


The opening sequence is scary , the haunting whale music, as well as Dot underwater and the fish in the underwater scuba tank...



I love all the Dots (well, four of them at least) but a huge amount of my childhood fears were because of those films.

Ironic, lol

Out of all the Dot movies that I've seen, this one is my second least favorite. Why you ask, since it's such a great movie and has a wonderful message. Simple. I can't help but cry every time I watch it. The music is so powerful and beautiful that I can't help but cry. Especially when that voice comes on and says that now the sea is filled with silence. Stupid humans.....

I get sad at Dot and the Koala but not near as sad as this one. Dot and the smugglers is just funny. And I'm sorry but I don't see the appeal in Dot and the Kangaroo. Those are the only ones I've seen.

I've only seen this one and Dot and the Koala. I watched them both often as a kid in the late 80s. I hardly remember Dot and the Koala now, but this one has always stuck with me. I remember I always used to cry whenever the song 'Why don't they leave us alone' came. I loved animals and this movie always made me cry, but I kept watching it over and over again.

I just watched it again yesterday for the first time in about 25 years and it still gave me a lump in my throat even if I didn't bawl like I used to.
