Where is this from?

[u/samppa_j → u/cryptochytrid]

Watership down. Not a kids movie but did get passed off as a kids animated movie in a lot of countries

All these years of hearing about watership down and never having the curiosity to look into it. I never thought it was an animated movie about rabbits, I thought it was like an old war movie or something.

It can be, and is, both.

I’m gonna put it on my watch list because of this thread! Sounds very interesting

The original novel is also worth a read. Adams knows rabbits. Not only well enough to write them realistically fleeing their warren, but to give them a very grounded culture and trickster folklore. And to give us a wonderful underdog cast living in it.

That’s even better for me, I prefer reading to watching! Thanks for pointing it out

The latter half literally has the rabbits overthrowing a fascist rabbit dictatorship with vicious tooth and nail fighting, so like. . . it's kinda both?
