00:00What's the first kids movie you remember going deep for you?
00:02And how would you say it inspired you afterwards?
00:05I mean, we grew up where we got some years between us,
00:08so we probably won't give the same answer.
00:10But I think mine might have been Toy Story, maybe.
00:16I think Toy Story was one where it was like, oh, are my.
00:19I was going to say the same thing, too, though.
00:21Oh, really?
00:21Yeah.
00:21Yeah.
00:22Are my toys sentient?
00:23Is this a thing?
00:24Yeah.
00:25Do they have feelings?
00:25Should I not be throwing them across the room unthinkingly?
00:30I don't know.
00:30Yeah, I mean, that just made playing with toys so much better,
00:34I think, just to get that they could be real.
00:36Yeah.
00:36Yeah, that was a big one for me.
00:38That and I just think Lion King is a really affecting story.
00:43That's crazy because that was the other one that I was thinking of saying, too.
00:45Yeah, fathers and sons and the idea of taking your rightful place in the world
00:50and stepping into your destiny.
00:53Those are big themes.
00:55And I think this movie, you know, DreamWorks has told so many great stories
00:59from Shrek to How to Train Your Dragon.
01:01And with this one, I feel like we're really delving into some heavy material
01:06that's going to hit both adults and children.
01:08Yeah.
01:09I mean, that's crazy because those were two of the same things that came to mind,
01:12Lion King and Toy Story.
01:13Yeah.
01:15For me, it was probably Secret of Nym.
01:17That was the one that I kind of globbed on to when I was a kid.
01:20It scared the bejesus out of me.
01:23I don't know if I can say bejesus, but it did.
01:26It was like it got a little deeper.
01:29It went a layer or two deeper.
01:31That and Fox and the Hound for me explored the characters and their friendship and their bond.
01:36And it just, you know, tore my heart apart, I remember, when I was a kid.
01:41So maybe those two are the two that went deep for me early on.
01:44Yeah.
01:45For me, I think, well, there's two that come to mind.
01:48Stand By Me is one.
01:49But I know it's not a kid's movie, but as a kid, it was like a very impactful movie on
01:57me and memorable.
01:59But American Tale, I think, animated was one that really got me.
02:06And I think it's that feeling of being left, lost, abandoned, pulled apart from your family that I think really
02:16was relatable and emotional for me as a kid.
02:20It's like that the character is basically lost, it feels like.
02:27And that had a lot of impact on me as a kid.
02:31Oh, another one is E.T. And it's not dissimilar from this story and the fact that Elliot is very
02:36smart, very wise behind his ears.
02:37And he's scared of this alien for obvious reasons at first.
02:41But then over the course of the film, he gets to know him.
02:43And then, like, you can love something so deeply that you previously were terrified of.
02:48It was really challenging.
02:48Yeah, E.T. was a big one for me as well.
02:50I cried at the John Williams.
02:53John Williams played E.T. in Indiana Jones.
02:56And when they played the music for E.T., I was crying, man.
02:59Yeah, absolutely.
03:01And when they played the music for E.T. in Indiana Jones, it was a big one for me as
03:03a kid.
03:03E.T. in Indiana Jones, it was hard for me as a kid.
