Which animal would you choose?


Let's say you exist in this film's reality, loneliness wins out and you're forced to choose an animal form before being shipped out to the woods... which form do you choose? Also, which form do you think would be the most popular with those destined to that fate?

A dragon, That's right, a freakin' dragon.

Operating on the premise that I would be changed into a cute little baby dragon, there aren't a whole lot of places I'd rather be than coddled in Emilia Clarke's bosom. And later in life I can look forward to roasting Matthew McConaughey. "Alright-alright-alr"WHOOSH!!!

I would choose to be a human again! Yes, teachnially, humans are animals. 😥

Well, I would have opted to be a bear. 🐻

the people who had lot of mind control on them, just cant figure it out, but I dont think anyone is turned into an animal, they are hunted down in the woods.

I would pick a seahorse. As the males give birth, not the females. Being a male I will never know what it feels like to give birth to a living thing. Which is life's biggest wonder.

Bonobo of course ;)

Certainly NOT a flippin' lobster!

As unimaginative as it makes me, I think I would choose to be a dog (Olivia Colman's character even says in the movie that most people pick dog, and that it's actually causing other animals to start becoming extinct as a result). When you think about it, dogs usually have pretty good lives- they are well taken care of by their owners, treated with love- well, not the dog in this movie, but that's because that woman was a psychopath.

The only thing that would be better I guess would be a monkey like a chimpanzee, because that's pretty close to being a human- but it would have to be one that's well taken care of in a zoo; in the wild being a chimpanzee would not be pleasant I don't think, because you'd be fighting for survival all the time.
