“The story of a boy who became a man… By becoming a bear.”

This movie is way too under appreciated in my opinion… The fandom is practically non-existent…

And I don’t understand why? The plot was fantastic.

All of the characters were lovable.

There was no one that you absolutely could not stand.

The “bad guy” was actually the main character, Kenai. Which was an interesting twist for Disney.

But by building a bond with this young cub (Koda), and seeing the world through the eyes of a bear, he realized that he (as a man) had been the monster… Not bears.

I mean, talk about character development…

Koda: Those monsters are really scary… Especially with their sticks.


And for me, this scene right here was one of my most emotional Disney moments. You can’t even here Kenai telling the actual story… But you can see their facial expressions and you can just feel it. You know exactly what he’s saying to Koda.

Kenai: Well, I have a story to tell you.

Koda: Really? What’s it about?

Kenai: Well, it’s kind of about a man… and kind of about a bear. But mostly, it’s about a monster.

… Koda… I did something very wrong.


Okay, but on a lighter note?

The animation was incredible.

Amazing.

It was a powerful movie about brotherly love, guidance, and responsibility, and it truly is one of my favorite Disney movies ever.

Not to mention the soundtrack is amazing. You can’t go wrong with Phil Collins.

The fandom will never be huge, but the movie definitely deserves more credit. If you haven’t watched it, I highly recommend it.

Brother Bear

I want to remind everyone that this movie is where the “quit telling everyone I’m dead” “Sometimes I can still hear his voice” joke came from.

can we please go back to the era of phil collins being inexplicably on every animated film soundtrack

i’m also struggling to relate to people in a dating/friends context because everything seems to involve sex or substances? every new person i meet is either very casual/comfortable with sex, a major weed enthusiast, or drinks daily so every proposed meetup is “let’s get drunk/high together” or implying casual  sex and I just…I am well into adulthood by now but none of those things have ever been my life and it’s daunting to only have those options for socializing

i’m just a virgin who gets drunk approximately 3 times a year and could care less about weed like let’s make s’mores together or something

and this isn’t even one of those pretentious “straightedge is so superior! let’s go to museums and look at art!  alcohol and drugs are for losers uwu” posts I’m just a fucking lightweight who hates weed and is horribly intimidated by the pandora’s box of 93 artisanal niche kinks that social media and dating apps have unleashed 

all I’m saying is it’s a downer that fun hangouts like walking in the park or baking together and considered babyish and boring because they’re substance free and/or don’t involve the potential for sex
