DVD covers can be deceiving.

Do you guys remember a certain movie called "Watership down"? If you are in the age between 25 and 45, and you are british, you may know about this film. It's one of those animated movies that blurry the boundaries of animation as a genre and more as a tool to tell a story. It's a balls to the wall visceral tale about survival, loyalty and betrayal. And it also features a song that might render any British person to tears (and any person with a heart, that is).



So, when this movie got shipped to the USA, they made a very cutesy looking movie Poster, mostly because "HEY! It's a cartoon with bunnies, this is totally for kids!". An hour and twenty minutes later, the generation of kids that would grow to be fans of Tarantino left the theaters, traumatized to their very souls. What if the same thing happened, with ponies?

Yes, that entire build up to post Ponies again. My soul is a rainbow now.
