Or you can talk to your kids after the movie and make it a learning experience about what is fantasy and how many things in movies are not and never were real.


Treat kids like idiots who will believe anything and they'll be idiots who will believe anything.

"it'll make them think that in the past earth had flying turtles and flying piranha birds"

No it won't because most of them know it's a piece of fiction.

I went in this thread expecting you to mention something unsuitable for children, all I saw is you saying it's not for children simply for the fact that it's not based on reality, I'm sorry to say but that's a stupid reason to call something unsuitable for children.

If you truly think children are dumb enough to think it's real, you clearly don't know children much.

Yes, children aren't as smart as adults, that is true. But they are not as stupid as you're making them out to be.

Really? Well you can get back to your mother's belly then.

Children, children, children... please hush now with all this silly bickering!

How a post for a kids animated film can provoke such daft arguments is beyond me!

the original post that this is not for children as it is historically inaccurate etc I took to be a joke as surely most CGI/ animated kids films of the last 80 years or so are not accurate.

Talking animals do not exist therefore should near on the whole Disney film catalogue be banished from children's viewing in case they think all animals will talk? If your child believes everything they see in a film to be true then that says more about the parent/ guardian.

I love the works of Tolkien etc. but even at a young age reading the Hobbit i realised it was not real - I mean dragons, goblins and orcs yes but wizards - now that is just daft!

I for one enjoyed the mishmash of animals and thought it showed creativity.

children are not that stupid!

Because kids think that every cartoon they watch is true, right? Kids should only watch history documentaries according to that logic.

All that aside, this movie is stillnot for kidsbecause if enough kids see it then the GOP will run out of voters in 12-15 years! Seriously, the only thing missing, regarding the "cavies" was a Trump poster!

"Different is dangerous"
"Dark means death"

Ring any bells?
