Seriously. It was like built from the ground up in in order to make children cry. I bet the director would go watch it incognito just to see all the kids balling their eyes out.

I'm still scarred. I can see that column of smoke coming up from the hunter's camp and I know she's gone. GONE!

I had an existential crisis after seeing it. What kind of a loving children's movie makes a kid ask their mother if they are going to die? That is hosed up.

Seriously. It went exactly like this:


Bambi's mother died.
My mother could die.
My father could die.
I could die.
Everyone is going to die.

And whammo! A 5 year old conceives of death and is haunted for life by it.
