    Oh yes. I'd not heard of this film, and it was advertised in the movie channel as "If you love Marley and Me, you'll love this uplifting tale". As it was a U, Mrs Yoda thought it would be a happy film.

      I wouldn't know. I've not seen it. It has two things in it that put me off; Luke Wilson and Jennifer Aniston.

        chuckle - I dont have kids, but a close friend has Thomas (6), and Catriona (3.5 going on 19+) .. I was interested in the comparison of ages and the thought 'when are kids emotionally old enough to deal with the topic of death' .. Im guessing/generalising, that unless they have lost a pet or a close family member, they arnt prepared for it for a while longer. I guess I got unlucky, I had to deal with death-of-a-pet at 5, and death-of-a-relative at 6 Last time I visited my friends (they live quite away from me), Thomas/Catriona asked their mum if "Uncle Garth could look after them if Aunty Nicola or Uncle Liam die" (Nicola and Liam are her sister & brother) .. I thought "these kids have no concept of death, so how can they formulate a question like that"... kids - they make ya laugh :-)

          I've not seen it, or read it, but just in case. I think the dog dies. Forewarned is forearmed and all.

              So, tonight the kids watched a film, Hachi: A Dog's Tale. We were happy to let them watch it as it was a U. Halfway through, Richard Gere dies and Catherine is devastated. She couldn't stop crying.

              Any movie where Richard Gere dies must have some redeeming value.

                Still worth it… except now you know the dog (Marley) dies and we know the O'Hanlon children will cry. Just skip it...

                    If they did the same kind of thing on reality TV shows, I'd start watching. If they made it compulsory for it to happen at least once per episode, I'd become an avid watcher.

                    Jeremy, you have to leave the house. Which coffin do you prefer?

                      I know just what you mean, I thought Toy Story 3 was a lot darker than the others and there was a moment I was convinced they were going to kill them all.

                      Yeah, no kidding! :wtf: My wife and I loved the movie but it was a good thing we rented it on DVD. We started watching it with the kids (6 yrs and younger). As the movie progressively got more "scary and dark" we started skipping chapters. They got the 45 minute version (and my middle son was still a little scared in my lap). After they went to bed my wife and I watched the whole thing ourselves. It was great, but I would exactly call it suitable for young children. After all, while the characters are probably no meaner than other villains in child movies, I don't need my kids afraid that their toys are going to wake up in the middle of the night and start imprisoning/torturing each other. Cute baby dolls turning bad is just evil in the minds of kids. What gets me is they still sell the purple bear as a smiling toy. Uh, yeah, that's what I want to buy my kids. X|
