I haven’t had much reason to post silly stuff lately, but today I do.
So Son saw a commercial for the movie Peter Rabbit 2: The Runaway.
Son: Is that…a Peter Rabbit movie? (Peter Rabbit was one of his favorite books when he was younger.)
Me: Yeah..it’s a sequel, I think, to the one that came out a couple years ago.
Son: I never saw that.
Me: I would never have LET you see it.
Son: Why? Does it have bad words or something? I can handle that.
Me: No.. not that. It’s just, from what I understand, a really crappy movie and it doesn’t even have anything to DO with the actual Peter Rabbit story. Beatrix Potter was probably spinning in her grave over that one. (Poor Ms. Potter, she really did NOT deserve for one of her stories to get this treatment, I swear. Stupid Hollywood.)
Son: Does that mean they took out the bit at the end with the chamomile tea? (This detail is SUPER important, dunno why. Probably because autism?)
Me: I think so.
Son: THEY TOOK OUT THE CHAMOMILE TEA PART? WHY? IT’S THE BEST PART!
Me: (trying not to laugh at his outrage) Beats me, kiddo. But from what I understand, they totally RUINED the entire story.
Son: I’m going to send them an email! I AM SO MAD.
Me: You do that.
I feel like that’s going to be one STRONGLY worded email.
