Bambi

i laughed when the mom died

Why were old Disney movies so traumatizing

5.1 - I know this angers some Disney purists but I fall in the “this is boring” camp. The animation is gorgeous & detailed, & the score carries a ton of weight, but the first half of the story is just walking around a forest & the second is so ridiculously over the top horny for a kids’ movie that I was almost uncomfortable having my kiddos in the room during it. Overall, it’s fine & it’s incredibly important in the world of animation, but it’s just absolutely not for me anymore.

Definitely thought Bambi was going to be about a girl.

Cute

A joy to watch hand-made animation with interesting colour pallets in the males fighting scene. Silence was used to add great weight, I haven’t seen it used for so long before. “Man… is in the forest” was such a poignant line to explain its downfall. The shot at the end of Bambi taking his father’s place was onions.
