Quinn Angstrom
sailor bii

EsperBot
It was really good
Rama
I've never actually watched it. I should fix that
★ тяу-нαя∂уи
do it
★ тяу-нαя∂уи
it's good shit
Quinn Angstrom
probably the best bible movie ever
Rama
Is it something I can actually show my kid or
EsperBot
How old's your kid again?
Rama
Almost 5
Rama
I know the plagues are played dead serious, but it's a matter of like. Details.
EsperBot
Hmmm. That's maybe a bit young? Like, I don't think it would scar him or anything, but there's some stuff that's kinda dark.
Rama
I think he's watched Fievel without crying so
Rama
It's borderline probably
EsperBot
Honestly I'd be less worried about the plagues and more about the hieroglyphics nightmare scene
Master Chieve
I'd wait another year or two for this one at least
Quinn Angstrom
also the Death of the Firstborn scene
Rama
Yeah I figured
Rama
It's hard to gauge without watching it yourself
oh i'm scary
Honestly I don't know if the content being too intense for him is a problem so much as...
oh i'm scary
I went to see this movie in theaters as a Sunday School thing when I was like, 7? I dunno, take whatever year it came out and subtract 199.
oh i'm scary
And I didn't think much of it then.
oh i'm scary
Like I think more than the vast majority of animated movies it's just... not a Kid Thing, not because it's too violent or dark, but because it's about themes that fly over kids' heads.
oh i'm scary
Maybe that's just me.

came out when i was like 8 and i remember liking it then so that's the only real measurement i have

I do think a kid as young as 'not even five' would probably be a bit bored by a lot of it. Older kids tend to love it though.
oh i'm scary
Yeah the age ratio is probably a lot younger than I was when I rewatched it and was like "what the fuck this is GREAT"
oh i'm scary
It's aaaaaalso possible I was just watching it back then in the framework of "this is the precursor to getting quizzed about Exodus"
oh i'm scary
When that's not really the point of the movie.
sailor bii
I didn't see it until I was an adult so I can't help you there
sailor bii
but it's amazing
Quinn Angstrom
