Finally got around to watching The Secret of Nimh after being in my backlog for so many years but I'm glad I did

Tease of what? She had sex and had children. You should too.

That's kinda gay.

The movie's biggest flaw is the introduction of magic and other bullshit that doesn't occur in the book. I always called the rats in the movie "Jedi Rats," since apparently they can use the Force and shit.

But even more than that, there was one scene in that book that needed to be included in the film for maximum emotional impact. Before Mrs Frisby(Brisby) goes to see the rats, she takes a moment to tell Timmy where she's going. She has no idea what to tell him about what she's doing or why, but she does her best to reassure him everything will be okay, but he's the one who ends up reassuring her that he's not afraid to die, if should it come to that. The omission of that scene in the movie always made it feel kind of incomplete to me.

That's to say nothing of the book's implications of how DNA manipulation affected not only Jonathan, but his children as well, with all of them being exceptionally bright, but the older son being small and sickly and the younger son being big and strong.

So if there is another adaptation of this story (I hear there's been one in development hell for at least 10 years), I'd like to see them incorporate these elements in it.

Source Material Fags are some of the worst elitists out there.

You should never encourage another user to breed.

Sue me, faget.

Go away, Doug Walker. You wasted perfectly good dubs on this piss-poor take.

That nigger is living in Yea Forums's head rent-free.

brisby/frisby was a better character in the movie than the book
but that magic gem thing is an odd choice (annoyed me a lot as a kid always felt like i was missing something)

The rats want to be independent. The mouse is force to be independent. It just so happens the rats' leader is into mystical shit, and has a stone that helps in amplifying one's power. The whole idea of the movie is unlocking inner strength. It's a theme if you will. Why do this? Well, Don is into mystical occult shit.

Bitch please, she was totally leading the crow on, never fully rejecting him but keeping him on a leash and playing on his feelings to manipulate him him into being a babysitter. Not to mention the fact that she was walking around with her mouse pussu exposed.

...

Surely you jest. The book did a much better job showing how hard she worked to raise her kids, and how even things like getting them breakfast every day was a life-or-death struggle. The movie had to force in drama like the tractor scene. The book didn't need it because her life was already dramatic.

Just because you fail to see obvious classic female manipulation doesn't mean that everyone who does is an MGTOWcel Elliot Rodgers.

I watched the movie more times than you, and I "see" everything. First and foremost, she saved the crow's life, so what he did for her later is more than justified. Unless you want to deny that, of course.

When the crow pursued her to the rose bush, she did not want him around at all, and tried to make him go away, less he attracts the cat or the farmer. She DID use "classic female manipulation" to convince him to get the fuck out, but you need to understand that such behavior was an accepted norm at the time, even though it was approaching old fashioned level. The word for that is "chivalry", where the man is supposed to do minor tasks for well mannered pretty ladies even without a reward. Whether you think it's good behavior is irrelevant, since in the movie's timeline, it still was an accepted cultural practice.
