Sorry but 3 year old - happy feet or flushed away?

[MrsSportacus]

Promised my son i'd take him to the piccies on sunday. Which is better for him? He is a big scaredy cat, thank you!

Is FA not scary then? He is a real wuss. Ahhh bless my delicate boy.

Flushed Away is better, we've seen both. I think Happy Feet has more scary moments actually!

My 5yo was scared and crying in Happy Feet yesterday - not all the way thru, but defo scary in places. She wanted to leave, its quite long for a kids film and I think she was bored by the end.

Took DS for a McDonalds as a preflushed away treat only for him to be scared by the 'angry frog' happy meal toy! Gah!

My dd1 three this month was terrified during Happy Feet, we had to leave. And she's not generally nervous.

Happy Feet is too long, and DD who is 4 was scared in places. She sat on my knee for quite a lot of the film.

DS, 5, was frightened for some of HF. It has a few good scenes, but is long, boring, and has a pathetic storyline which is probably a bit subtle for a 3 yo.

Oh, Blu, yes, the storyline is dire. And the ending pathetic.

You are taking a 3 year old to the cinema

The very best of British.

Haven't seen either I'm afraid but wanted to say how crap most new films for kids are, the hollywood ones....I find them almost totally aimed at adults and they're so wordy and just..AMERICAN.....there's nothing charming or childlike about them...we saw cars on dvd and it was just a pile of poo.

Do your cinema have a vintage film on show ever? I often think I'd rather take DS to a showing of bedknobs and broomsticks or Mary poppins than have his first visit to the cinema be to one of the new films.

DS is five in August and he's not been yet!

I agree, Sunnysideup - they seem to be made by overgrown teenagers seeing how many 'in-jokes' they can get in...and lead by a couple of design ideas - hopeless writing and script editing.

Give me Jungle Book!
