This week, Aly & Sarrah are watching Nelvana's 1985 film: The Care Bears Movie.

Aly gets the fun job of telling us all about the Care Bears franchise - how they came from greeting card characters to a toy line, to the media masters they are today!

Sarrah fills us in on the Canadian (yay!) Nelvana Studios, and how they made this film for basically no budget and in practically no time.

Together we ponder the design choices for a Care Bear horse (it's not great), and go through the list of all the Care Bear properties that have existed.

Our walk-through includes a long and personal look at how kids without parents are portrayed in the 80s and 90s animated movies, as well as the realization that the animation in this is pretty darn good! We also fully appreciate a twist that neither of us saw coming.

So put on your story hats, and join us in Care-a-lot! Let's fill up the Care-o-meter while we watch The Care Bears Movie!
