Babe

[Ayen]

Babe was a pig, a talking pig! Well, we could understand him but the humans in the movie couldn't understand any of the animals. It was funny and also rather sad if I remember right. Weren't they also trying to kill his mom or something? Anyway, Babe and Miss Piggy are the reasons I like pigs.

Talk about Babe here.

[Mahad]

I remember this one, barely, but I do. Fun movie, but it did have plenty of sad moments. I think his mother was sent to the slaughter house or something, and he was left alone when he was still a baby? I seem to remember the farmer was fond of him, and wanted to train him for some sort of cow-herding competition? It's really being a long time since I saw this.

[Ayen]

Okay, yeah, the slaughter house bit is coming back to me.

I remember there being a rescue too, though.

Absolutely fucking loved it. Dick King-Smith was my favourite author as a child.

Pig in the City was a littly bit shitty, though. :I

[Ayen]

Pig in the City was a littly bit troutty, though. :I

That seems to be a common thing with sequels, sadly.

I almost recall there being another movie about a pig that came out at the same time, but I could just be confusing it with the Babe's sequel.

I loved Babe, I also really liked Charlotte's Web which may be the other film you're thinking of.

[Ayen]

Ohh! Yup, that's the one. Thanks. Not anywhere close to being in the same time period as I thought, but still.

[Night Fury]

There is an animated and live action film. I love the animated one, the book was a favourite in my childhood too.

Gordi came out first. Both are terrible. Best thing about pigs is Animal Farm.

[Night Fury]

Best thing about pigs is bacon.

Everyone doing this after this movie came out made me hate it.

[noxious.sunshine]

Ithink I liked Gordy better.

I can't remember, but yeah.

Gordi! Okay, that was the one I was thinking of.

Too many pig movies, man, I can't keep up.

Great movie, great book; my favorite Dick King Smith story is "Three Terrible Trins" though. Incredibly clever and hilarious little book.

[Jiro]

I, too, used to confuse Babe with Charlotte's Web. Could not for the life of me figure out how they got the pig to talk. Even after I understood that it wasn't the pig talking, I still didn't get it. I was a fuckwit as a child I guess.

i have not read all the comments but:
Yes, the mother got transported to the slaughterhouse, and becaus Babe didnt drink the milk from the machine they grabbed him and sold him .. i guess..
there he became the price of a game of 'guess the weight'.

when the farmer won him he was just there to become fat en then eaten. but then they made a connection.

i love this movie so much... its so cute.
especially the part where Babe goes to a herding competition and everybody laughs at the farmer and babe xD

as a pig lover i 100% support this movie!

i didnt really like the 2nd movie that much though..
.. im going to watch this movie

The scene where James Cromwell dances and sings to a little pig is one of the greatest moments of cinema history.

[Shaibana]

i just finished watching this movie.
it made me all emotional.

i just love this movie is so danm cute!

its without a doubt my (maybe 2nd) favorite movie!


P.S babe is a girl! in pretty much all the scenes they used a sow :P
when they measured Babe's belly, there was no pee-pee..
when they walked to the sheepdog arena, and when Babe entered the house through the doggie-door.. u could clearly see that it was a girl :P
