Life comes at you fast. One day you're playing in the sandbox, the next you're sobbing watching Max from A Goofy Movie tell his dad, "I'm not your little boy anymore!" It's no secret that just about everything changes when you welcome a child into the world, and as the moms of r/Mommit have discovered, the same goes for watching movies. Member u/curlycattails recently asked other parents in the group: "What is a scene from a kids’ movie that hits different watching it as a parent?" I don't have children, but I believe the same holds true for watching these movies once you're grown up and have more perspective on life.
u/curlycattails 's own answer was up first, followed by some that, if you're anything like me, will just tear you apart: 1. The Incredibles (2004) "We were watching The Incredibles tonight with my 2-year-old and my newborn. I watched that movie sooooo many times as a kid.
The scene with the missiles hitting the airplane was intense/scary when I was a kid, but it’s legitimately hard to watch now that I have kids of my own. Basically, Mr. Incredible is taken prisoner by Syndrome, and Elastigirl just found out he’s been lying to her, so she’s flying out to confront him.
The kids snuck onboard the plane without her knowledge. Syndrome sees the plane nearing and sends out some missiles to destroy it — and Mr. Incredible listens helplessly to his wife, begging Syndrome to call off the attack.
Elastigirl asks her daughter to put a force field around the plane.
