This scene heavily traumatized my sister. I'm not allowed to mention the never ending story around her children

Fun Fact: Artax can speak in the novel.

[–] TachyonTele@piefed.social 10 points 15 hours ago

Only if you read his lines out loud.
Checkmate Artax apologists.

There were two horses that played Artax, contrary to the urban legend they both were happy and healthy at the end of filming.

I spent a really long time thinking the horse died in that scene and it ruined animals in movies for me.

Reasons I stopped watching movies and started reading encyclopedias as a child. This and the land before time, the secret of nimh…

I don't remember that part... I mean, I remember Artax drowning; I don't remember it looping for 3 hours. 🤔

This was such a extreme experience for me. I was in second grade I think and the elementary school brought all the children to the cinema without the parents.

Here I remember crying, it was soo sad! And then when Gmork attacks Atreju I had to close my eyes.

Are the sequels worth watching?

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 4 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

2 is my favorite.

The only thing 3 has going for it is that Jack Black is in it as the protagonist's real world bully.

Was that before he ended up in game as steve

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 4 points 14 hours ago

It was before he was Steve, but well after he was selling Pitfall cartridges for Activision.
