whats up w kids movies w/ a lot of sequels where the og movies have themes like 'its ok to be who you are and to stand up for what you think is right against social expectations and doing so is the bravest thing you can do' and by the end of the series the movies themes are like 'the bravest thing you can actually do is grow the fuck up and learn to deal with the fact that you've gotta conform to society's expectations for the rest of your life (and start a nuclear family)'

#ok mainly im thinking of the httyd films but i could swear theres something else that follows a similar vein #its so weird #utterly bizarre in films 2 and 3 how they frame it as so noble that hiccup decides to shoulder being the chief. bc he's The Son so hes Gott #even though he spent a whole movie abt how it was ok for him not to choose that path #and even though astrid the whole time wants to be a leader and demonstrates talent at it #i would not be rambling this much about this if i wasn't high
