But the Black Cauldron takes the cake in dark and scary and lots of kids have watched them back in the 60s when it first came out (or 70s... it's old and I don't know the date) Yeah, cutie-modern-daisney could of NEVER have been able to come up with KH by themselves, they needed a good smack from Square to do that ;p

Uhhhhh.... Cutie modern disney showed some chick falling to her death, as well as a lion getting torn the f*** up by hyenas, right? Although I think the ultimate "not for t3h kids" moment in Disney has to be watching Bambi's mother get SHOT TO DEATH IN A BURNING FOREST. Wow. And Black Cauldron was 1985, btw.

I agree that it isn't all cutsie. Princess Mononoke involved giant boars desolving into blood and bones, peoples' heads and arms being shot or bitten off, as well as monsters gushing out blood and gore. Castle in the Sky includes LOTS of guns. Spirited Away includes a Dragon/Spirit bleeding to death because of a curse. all three of these were made by Hayou Mayazaki but he works with Disney so it counts in my book.

I'm 14, and I hardly find the older FF's, or even KH that kiddy. I think the newer Final Fantasies are the ones that little kids are starting to play. And I agree with the statement that some young kids don't have the pateince to play an RPG. Most of them hate storylines, and just want to keep fighting and fighting.
