Dinosaur (2000)

The beginning suggests that there are good times lying ahead for our dinosaurs.

The ending negates that, but also suggests that they shouldn’t get too comfortable.

Things could always be very worse.

Toy Story 4 (2019)

While not as bleak, as the previous film, the film’s ending is still a rear jerker.

Agent Kermit D. Fonz's rating:

4024

7.9

8.2

Toy Story 3 (2010)

Probably the darkest of all three films, not to mention the possible high death count, in the near escape from the furnace scene.

Also, there is the message that at point in time, your going to grown up, and give up some of your most treasured possessions.

What impact would the toys feel in that regard?

Agent Kermit D. Fonz's rating:

7.1

8.1

Togo (2019)

You saw the animated version, Balto.

Spoiler alert: They both end the same way.

657

Eight Below (2006)

Also based on a true story......

Yikes, there is the "scene".

Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom (2018)

After years later, we get the exact mortal and ethical questions of cloning dinosaurs answered.

Turns out, Ian Malcolm was right all long?

Don’t get too use, to some of your fan favourite characters.

Agent Kermit D. Fonz's rating:

985

6.3

6.9

Star Wars: The Last Jedi

While not as grim, as say The Empire Strikes Back, there are moments that do linger longer after the film ends.

Plus, just how pure are intentions of the Jedis anyway?

Agent Kermit D. Fonz's rating:

King Kong (2005)

You believe an ape can fall from great heights, realistically.

Plus, Skull Island.

Agent Kermit D. Fonz's rating:

1081

7.3

7.8

Rogue One: A Star Wars Story

For a Star Wars film, it's pretty heavy. And with a high death count too.

Think an intergalactic version of Platoon, Full Metal Jacket, and Apocolypse Now.

Agent Kermit D. Fonz's rating:

2754

6.8

7.3

Big (1988)

Not to get into finer details, but the film does have greater questions.

The first being, the ramifications of Josh and Susan’s relationship.

It’s best not to think of it.

The Lion King (2019)

Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead (1991)

The film’s title, gives it away. Plus the idea, that lack of parental supervision, being fun seems good on paper.

Agent Kermit D. Fonz's rating:

1163

5.2

5.6

Dennis the Menace

Dennis’s shenanigan are presented for humour, but in real life, can greviously harm people.

Plus, Switchblade Sam.

Hachi: A Dog's Tale

A true story, with a very depressing ending.

The Great Mouse Detective (1986)

This scene.....

James and the Giant Peach

Poor, poor James. For some reason, horrible things happen to kids, in Roald Dahl stories.

This one is one is no exception. First James, is up rooted from an happy childhood, after his parents are killed by a rampaging rhino, then he is placed in care with the meanest aunts ever, then there is the mechanical shark, that tries to kill James, and his new found friends.

Balto (1995)

Based on a true story, more or less....

The ending, is definitely a tear jerker.

Agent Kermit D. Fonz's rating:

Care Bears Movie II: A New Generation (1986)

5.6

5.5

Care Bears Movie II: A New Generation (1986) (1986)

What do the Care Bears do for encore? Help save a kid, possessed by an evil villain named Darkheart.

You heard correctly, possessed.

Darkheart is pretty much light weight, compared to the Evil Talking Book, from part one. But still the Care Bears, have their work, cut out for them.

The Bad News Bears (1976)

See kids, who sware, drink beer, and smoke cigarettes?

The Adventures of Milo and Otis

It's a cute film about a cat and dog, who are friends!

Just don't tell the kids, about the possibile behind the scenes of the animals in the film!

Agent Kermit D. Fonz's rating:

6.3

6.4

Prancer (1989)

It takes the idea, of hard scrabbled, living on your last dime living pretty seriously given that Jessica and her dad, are almost depression era level broke.

And also, it's best not to think about the film's ending.

Agent Kermit D. Fonz's rating:

7.7

The Bear

Sure, it's about a cute bear cub, but it's also a cute orphaned bear cub, and one who is in constant danger of but being hunted, by hunters.

Agent Kermit D. Fonz's rating:

7.1

Batman Returns (1992)

More considerably violent, than Batman. Plus The Penguin is freaking terrifying.

And Catwoman.

Some how, MacDonald's Happy Meal Toys came out of this film.

Agent Kermit D. Fonz's rating:

1082

6.4

6.7

Oliver & Company (1988)

A girl is kidnapped, implied possible death, a cute kitten is abandoned (he does find a new owner), and Bill Sykes.....

He is a horrible person, and bad guy.

Hook (1991)

It's not as traumatic as say the Disney version, but still being kidnapped by pirates is not something you would want.

Agent Kermit D. Fonz's rating:

6.9

Charlotte's Web (1973)

The ending......

I'm not crying, you're crying.

Bridge to Terabithia (2007)

Regardless of the version, you watch it always ends the same way.

Be fore warned.

Batman (1989)

Not necessarily a family film, but however kids do love Batman.

It's violent and dark, and then there is The Joker.

Agent Kermit D. Fonz's rating:

7.8

Batman: Mask of the Phantasm

An animated Batman film? Sign me up! It's also pretty violent at times too.

Not Tim Burton Batman violent, but still.

Agent Kermit D. Fonz's rating:

7.2

The Yearling (1947)

It's a story, about a boy and his pet deer.

You already know, how it ends.

6.4

My Dog Skip (2000)

It's a sad fact of life, pets die in the end, of old age.

The film never let's you forget that.

Marley & Me (2008)

It's a cute family film, about a pet dog!

Until it's not.

Avengers: Endgame (2019)

Don't get attached, to your favourite super hero.

The film takes the word "End Game", very almost literally.

Agent Kermit D. Fonz's rating:

2603

7.3

Peter Pan (1953)

There's Captain Hook and his non too subtle threat towards Tiger Lilly, and Tinker Bell, sure she gets killed off, and makes in the end, but still....

And also the very infamous scene/song featuring Indians.

Agent Kermit D. Fonz's rating:

5.7

Babe: Pig in the City (1998)

The first film, was somewhat cute, the sequel however takes the whole cute thing, and then substitutes it for one heck of a dark, depressing film.

Mickey Rooney also make a cameo, as one of the saddest looking clowns in film history.

Agent Kermit D. Fonz's rating:

1601

7.3

The Fox and the Hound (1981)

The cute, adorable fox and hound, are still going to be friends, even after every thing that happens, in this movie.

Are they?

But it's all going to be okay in the end, isn't it? They're going to realize they can ignore their societal roles and love each other despite their differences?

Nope! The only happy ending here is that the former friends don't actually murder each other.

Agent Kermit D. Fonz's rating:

3187

7.5

Pinocchio (1940)

Hey kids, behave and don't tell lies. Because, if you don't, you'll turn into a donkey, your nose will grow longer, and you might get eaten by a whale.

But not necessarily in that order. When you wish upon a star? More like, when you wish upon a nightmare!

"You boys have had your fun," a shadowy figure yells at the new donkeys. "Now pay for it!"

Agent Kermit D. Fonz's rating:

6.7

All Dogs Go to Heaven (1989)

Right from the get go, the film is dark and depressing, the main character gets hit by a car and dies (don't worry, he's ok, and comes back ok), Charlie is a bit of a jerk and manipulates the poor girl, to no end, and there is a depiction of hell that is pretty heavy, even for a kids film.

There is also a fair amount of violence, and shooting as well.

Agent Kermit D. Fonz's rating:

2856

7.7

Coraline (2009)

The alternate world, that Coraline visits and discovers that nearly everyone, and I mean nearly EVERYONE, are puppet/dolls with button eyes, is the stuff that nightmares are made of.

How is this not, a David Lynch film?

The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe... (2005)

The BBC version, wasn't nearly as dark as the theatrical version, I still like this film, but I have to admit, it could be a bit much at times, from Tilda Swinton's portrayal of the White Witch, to the battle scenes (which thankfully for kids, are too brutal), and Aslen's "death scene".

What? Did you "really" think that he would be killed off for real?

Besides, there still the sequels to go!

Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory (1971)

To this very day, the boat ride scene, scares the hell out me, even after the millionth viewing.

Also, demises of the kids, were a bit much to take, even if arguably, they were "asking for it", for not paying attention to the rules. But don't worry, they turn out okay in the end, horribly and mentally scared in the end, but still okay. Kind of sort of.

And also Grandpa Joe, comes off as kind of a jerk.

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (2005)

The chocolate factory, in the film is less of an awesome place to be visiting and more of a lawsuit just waiting to happen.

Song of the South (1946)

A very controversial film, from Disney. Want to see it on DVD/Blu Ray?

Well, that's never going to happen.

Dumbo (1941)

The scene in which Mrs. Jumbo, attacks the kids for attacking Dumbo, and is imprisoned for her troubles, is one of the most heart breakingly sad moments of all time. Lesson learned? Kids (but not all kids), can be unreasonably cruel.

The pink elephants? Now, that's a different story, all together.

Also, for some the birds in the film, are uncomfortable stereotypes.
