Teaches kids the wrong things

Pixar movies almost always have an
educational theme running them ie
teaching kids the difference between right
and wrong etc but i feel this movie got it
wrong. I didn't like the fact arlo couldnt
'make the mark' because of his timid
nature to which this counted against him
and couldnt fit in with his siblings. his
parents pretty much looked down on him as inferior to his brother and sister who
then go on to make fun of him. I think this
sends out the wrong messages to
children, no sibling should be made to feel
inferior to others because they are more timid or shy.

Also, since when did humans exist along
with dinosaurs!?????
Dont confuse children pixar!!!!! Grrrrrr

In my opinion this film is way off the mark and sends out completely the wrong messages. Id be interested if anyone else feels the same way.

Watch the beginning again - this is based on what would happen if the asteroid(?) never hit the earth.

Sounds like someone wasn't paying attention ;)

This film didn't have a good script, and the moral was not well thought out.

I suppose the wanted the audience to leave thinking "Everybody finds himself", but it ended up being more like "Getting your father killed is no big deal".

“Seventy-seven courses and a regicide, never a wedding like it!

I don't think Arlo could be blamed for his father's death... Yes he let Spot go, but it was his father's decision to go on that rather dangerous little venture in the rain.
