Megamind
How is wanting to kill all’s es monsters different than wanting to kill all sharks
this
Explain
Fpbp
Wait really? That's fucking disappointing.
It turns into a worse HTTYD
I'm withelaborate
Except the subversion is what makes Megamind great.
If they played it straight it would have just been an okay superhero parody film.
Which I mean, isn't bad but would have made the overall film more forgettable.You are the only person I've seen that wants that.
Big hero 6
you're going to be very, very, very hard-pressed to find a story aimed at children where the message is that it's ok to kill animals
They aren't animals though, they're monsters.
Explain the difference. A wolf was a monster to a peasant
Wolves are monsters, those things won't respect you why should you respect them?
Because we're better
It’s just an animal
An animal that will kill you without an ounce of hesitation, thus a monster.
So, all animals then?
Unironically. Believe it or not, animals do not place intrinsic value on human life.
Animals almost never kill without reason. Plus they're animals, they don't know any better.
Wolf is an awful example because overtime many wolves adapted to be less hostile around humans over generations to a point we literally starting taking some packs in.
You ever heard of a fucking dog?
>Expecting good action from western animation
Dogs were brow beaten to be less feral by civilized humans, they should be grateful we do that instead of killing them all.
>Animals almost never kill without reason.
lol
lmao
>So, all animals then?
No, how the fuck is a worm going to kill you?
>Animals don't place intrinsic value on any life but their own, that's why most of them are monsters.
>oh no this wolf is ripping my throat out, I could have fought back but I will be the bigger man and let it kill me
and we got some great bouts too, the last fight is certified KINO.
I said almost never, retard. Of course there are documented cases of animals killing for no clear reason. But most of the time they're acting in what they think is self-defense or self-preservation, and surprise, that's what was actually happening with sea beasts.
Woah, dogs are just domesticated wolves? I didn't know that, thanks for enlightening me, dudebro.
Fucking brainlet. Yeah, dudebro. Obviously the reason that wolves were portrayed as monsters throughout the vast majority of human history is because nobody realized that they were basically genetically identical to wolves. I'm sure it had nothing to do with the fact that wolves were a tangible threat to their continued existence. Yeah, it was totally that they just didn't get genetics and not that the modern view of animals is a luxury of a sterilized world. Yep, you're not anthropomorphizing anything at all. You have a totally well-reasoned and cultured understanding of man's relationship with animals
Nobody said you should let a wolf rip your throat out lmao
That's exactly what this shit movie is preaching.
>No, how the fuck is a worm going to kill you?
If you think worms haven't caused death then you're a fucking moron. What do you think a "monster" even is? Modern humans didn't invent the word. Monsters are just sufficiently powerful beasts.
No it's not. Anyway if you want to go watch humans kill animals for funsies I'm sure there's lots of videos of people's safaris or hunting trips.
Science has confirmed that dogs and other form of pack animals with high social intelligence create bonds with others, including their owners. So wwhile yeah, 99% of most animals that have the brain cells to even have emotions beyond survival insticts and instict of ensuring the survival of their children, animals with hiearchial structures generally do have just enough brain cells to put intrinsic value on people they grew up with.
>inb4 why do do some dogs kill hmmmm!?!?!
Same reason some autists go around and massacre other fellow humans in schools, or commit crimes or murder or rape.
Not every dog has the exact same brain dipshit.
