Everything…

Something for the kiddies???

for the last 12 years or so (whenever the first Toy Story came to our screens), I’ve been fascinated by the whole genre of computer animated movies. The clever people writing the scripts, are using cliches that in a regular movie, will likely to sound like ones, however because the characters are animated, and the movie is targeting young children, these cliches are OK.

Funny, isn’t it? We are trying to convey this subliminal message to our kids, which we, as “adults” have long forgotten, or (unfortunately for us) don’t really live by. How sad!

In this short clip, Rodney is leaving his dead-end existence, in pursuit of his dream. Like in any “normal family”, the mother can’t let go….
The DAD, grabs the opportunity to teach his son the lesson from his own pitiful existence.

For most of us, it is not too late…
Lets learn from Rodney!

    When we open our eyes we suddenly find ourselves seeing the hidden messages all around us in our kids toy room and bookshelves. Being selective with what we give them to watch, play, navigate, read… Now we know, it’s all piling up in their subconscious mind, so we make sure it’s good stuff. My call to action: Cut the TV wire! We’ve done that 2 years ago to expel the various kids channels out of our lives and out of their subconscious. Robots is a DVD that I will gladly let them watch, instead. Thanks Raz for reminding that movie for me!
