Saturday Kevin and I took the boys to see Toy Story 3. We thought it would be a great family event that we all could enjoy.
We were wrong.
Apparently we have extremely sensitive children. Having the toys put out on the curb where the trash men might pick them up and throw them out was traumatic for them. Especially Kevin. He covered his eyes with his blanket and got very upset. Colin wasn't happy either, saying "no!" and looking sad.
Also, when the young toddlers play rough with the toys wasn't something they found entertaining either. And when Buzz was tied down to the chair and Kevin covered his eyes yet again while Colin was upset, we called it quits. We actually had to leave the theater because the movie was too upsetting. I mean, we should have known. Look at these threatening characters:
We have taken Kevin to one movie previously. It was Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs. He did great that movie, until the very end when you don't know (for about 30 seconds) if the good guy makes it or not. He was so upset that we almost left then. He was almost crying and wouldn't stop talking about how bad that was. (He has a hard time when bad things happen to good people.) Maybe we can try again in a year or so, but I am not sure how we are going to find a better film than Toy Story 3!
