The Viewing Files: Animals Running Wild

Cute animal overload?  Yes please.  I mean seriously.  How can you not love cute animals?  Especially when they are in a movie.  Although some of these movies don't make it easy.  Though that's not the animals fault but the writers for writing some truly dire scripts.

 

Still cake makes everything seem a little bit better.

Alvin and the Chipmunks

Starring: Cute chipmunks

Original release: 2007

Synopsis:  Singing chipmunks.  I kid you not.

 

Five year olds would probably enjoy it.  Everyone else just run for the hills.

Hop

Starring: Cute bunnies

Original release: 2011

Synopsis:  The Easter bunny.

 

I'm guessing most of the actors have tried to forget they were ever in this movie.

I know I would.

Happy Feet

Starring: Cute penguins

Original release:2006

Synopsis:  Singing and dancing penguins with a 'green save the planet' message

 

Probably one of the weirdest animated kids movie ever made.

Cats & Dogs

Starring: Cute dogs... and cats

Original release:2001

Synopsis:  Doggie James Bond

 

I am only watching this cause of beagle puppies and no other reason.

Shark Tale

Starring: Cute sharks

Original release: 2004

Synopsis:  A vegetarian... shark.

 

Worth it just for the shark doing the theme from Jaws.

After that it kind of all downhill and cutesy (and not in a good way)

Open Season

Starring: A bear and a deer

Original release: 2006

Synopsis:  Bears gone wild

 

If only Martin Lawrence wasn't so annoying.

Shiloh

Starring: Cute beagle puppy

Original release: 1996

Synopsis:  A boy and his dog

 

Oh My God it's a beagle puppy was pretty much my entire thought process for the whole movie.

Over the Hedge

Starring: Cute animals

Original release: 2006

Synopsis:  Forest creatures fight back

 

William Shatner voicing a possum is inspired casting and I'm so here for that.

All the lols.

Zootopia

Starring: More cute animals

Original release:2016

Synopsis:  Bunny police officer is on the case

 

"You're not fine.  Your ears are drooping"

I so want to live in Bunnyburrow and be a carrot farmer.

 

Love. 

Rio

Starring: Cute birds

Original release:2011

Synopsis:  Blu the macaw finds himself in the wild

 

The little sparrow warming up in front of the red traffic light is me every winter.  And can I say how much I love that bookstore. Even if it is animated.

Cute film with lots of cute characters.

Rio 2

Starring: More cute birds

Original release:2014

Synopsis:  Blu... the family man... ahem I mean parrot.

 

We've all had days where we've wanted to strap something to a sky rocket and set it alight so I can totally relate to the 3 junior blue's who were also seriously adorable.

More of them please and thanks.
