Awful Children’s Movies
There are so many. Currently my child is watching a movie about cartoon flies who are embroiled in the feud between the Russians and the Americans their race to the moon.
How. Dumb.
First of all, the Russian accents are awful. They occasionally slip into Indian territory. And the Russian flies are all red-eyed and evil and obsessed with beating the American flies. Not because they are passionate about a moon mission, but because they don’t want the Americans to win. Because non-Americans are jealous and devious all the time, right? They don’t have goals other than hating on us. That’s definitely the impression I want to leave my child with. Thanks, Tim Curry.
Oh wait, I forgot the best part. The woman fly saves the day with her motherly love. She can’t actually do anything physical because she faints every time there’s a challenge presented to her. Good times.
