What was normal? Letting kids be scared of thing without mollycoddling them?
>this is considered a childish cartoon in the 1980s
It wasn't really a kid's movie. People just assumed it was because it was about bunnies. Look at the poster.

It's an animation based on a book for grown ups. Kinda the same with Animal Farm by George Orwell.
>>71048700
That animation style is so cool its like a old 1980s PC Adventure game mixed with a 1960's LL Bean catalog.

Came here to say this. Plague Dogs is fucking best of all time. I don't know many people that have seen it. Gut wrenching, soul crushing and beautiful.

I read it when i was a kid and it was great. I saw the film as a teenager and I think the film is darker, but mostly for the sequences of Fifer tripping out, like when the field starts bleeding, rather than the violence.
Also Richard Adams created the story to tell to his young daughters on car trips, and they insisted he write a book, so it is sort of for children.

I remember this one advertised as a crime story with cats in the tv guide when I was a kid so I watched it with my sister. Not what we expected, cats fucking and tearing each others guts out, evil animal experiments and those nightmare scenes...

i somehow stumbled upon this as a child and had blocked it out due to trauma, thanks for flooding back all the memories anon.

It's like they couldn't make non-cartoonish commercial animation without beating you over the fucking head with how extreme and gritty and serious business it is.

What was the bodycount in Watership Down?
When we stopped having children's movies like this we basically created the snowflake problem. Today everything needs hugs and kisses.

A children's animation doesn't have to be either super gritty or singing and dancing cartoon characters.
And these movies weren't even significant compared to Disney's.
>>71048124
Original Bad News Bears. Pretty much the only reason I wanted to play little league when I was a kid was I thought I'd get beer.

The 70s and early 80s "popular culture" were depressing as fuck, there were a lot of downbeat science fiction movie and bizarre animations around at the time. Stuff like Watership Down, When the Wind Blows, Coma, Soylent Green, Logan's Run etc
Relative standards of living actually peaked in the US at the time, but people were living with the underlying dread of the Soviets and nuclear war, which was reflected in the films of the time.
Then blessed* Reagan came along and managed to tank the economy while at the same time making people really feel optimistic, brash and bold, ushering in the age of the Arnie and Stallone movie.
*I'm being sarcastic, he was a terrible President

Disney wasn't that big during the 80s I think. The singing stuff happened during the 90s.

neoliberalism isn't a joke cunt, unless you're working for an international firm or company in management, you're statistically assured to be in greater suffering due to it.

Watership Down isn't and was never intended to be a kid's movie.

In the 70s this was the only film that made me happy. After a long day of having my insides pulled out by Jimmy Saville it would put me in a good mood. A couple of cigarettes and a quick listen to my Gary Glitter records and I'd be back to my happy 8 year old self. God I miss the 70s.

Why do people keep comparing /v/ to Reddit? /v/ is it's own god-awful thing. They also hate anything remotely resembling a movie.

I haven't seen Fritz, but Heavy Traffic blew me away. Fuck Disney for associating animation with ''kiddie shit''.
>>71052739
Disney was rereleasing a lot of the classics in the 80s while their new movies were things like the fox and the hound, robinhood, rescuers, aristocats, etc, which were never that iconic. Little mermaid was when they began to turn it arround followed by aladdin beauty and the beast and lion king which were just disgustingly successful.

Its a DyE video I think. I dont know which one.
Watch the Swimming Pool one, I feel it had a better buildup.
