The Care Bears movies make me happy in my soul even when I bang my head against a wall trying to make worldbuilding.(Shush, I like my overthinking ways.)

Honestly, it's not a bad movie. It's cheesy, yes, you know how it's going to end, but I don't think it's bad and I rewatched it most recently two months ago. (I'm 26 and only saw it a couple of times as a kid.)

The Care Bear Nutcracker is... less good, but Care Bears in Wonderland just makes me grin, and Care Bears II -- I can't actually be rational about Care Bears II. Nicholas' movie is actually pretty good about reasons people might be lonely and angry. (The original Care Bears feature, Land Without Feelings, is also good about it, but is *much* less pretty. Also doesn't feature music. YMMV.)

Seconding+

Plus Dark Heart/Christy was the first pairing I ever shipped, long before I knew what shipping even was

[katarik]

OH YOU TOO get thee to the AO3, I got beautiful Dark Heart/Christy a couple years ago *shoos you off*

NO WAIT STAY AND TALK TO ME MORE ABOUT OUR SHIP. What do you like best about it?

[(Anonymous)]

I know it's a bit cliche, but I like that 'evil until they meet someone/evil but for one exception' trope

Many, many years ago I made an AMV for them. It's long gone from history, but I still think this song fits them:

[katarik]

Sometimes a cliché is a cliché because it is *super-excellent*. And let's be honest, that canoe scene is *perfection*. *rolls around in it*

I can see that song for them.

[katarik]

My baaaaaaabies oh my HEART I love them so. OH MY BABIES.

Yep, that was my first ship, too.

[katarik]

Yesssssssssssssss this is why there should always be discussion of one's childhood/current ships. FOR THE FANART.

There's actually a surprising amount of art on Deviantart, some of which is really good!

[katarik]

Hey, it means no one's going to grim-and-gritty Dark Heart and Christy.

No, I don't trust the Care Bears reboot not to try, at this point I don't trust *anyone*.

[katarik]

Welcome! Glad others enjoyed them as well. *coos at my ship*

[katarik]

... Hello, that is a sequel I am interested in. *chinhands* Is there a newsletter I can subscribe to?

(I never really believed he was straight-up human after that anyway.)

[katarik]

The Care Bears quietly shook the universe until a reasonably well-off home near to all three of them fell out, and oh look, isn't that nice, they were hoping to adopt a boy!

And the shadow knows something's missing. It can't quite think, but it can *tell* it's... alone. It is not down with this. Find that missing piece.

I can work with this plotbunny.

Care Bears in Wonderland is such a sadly overlooked little gem.

[katarik]

It is a true thing you just said. That's easily my favorite depiction of the Chesire Cat.

[ketita]

I loved Care Bears in Wonderland SO MUCH as a kid. I watched that movie over and over, I still remember the songs by heart. Oddly, I'm not sure I ever even watched any other Care Bears movies, or the show. The only Care Bears thing I remember is Wonderland.

[katarik]

And topping it with pickled beets!

If you liked Wonderland, you might like Nutcracker, the villains are very similar. Characters more like those in Wonderland are in Nutcracker and the Care Bears Movie. But my heart belongs forever to Care Bears II.

[ketita]

You like hats? I'm mad about hats!

I don't know if it would hold up to watching at my current age, you know? I do tend to find a lot of very children's-stuff less interesting. Maybe when I'm closer to having kids I'll give it a watch and see if I like it enough to give to them :) at least that'll give me a proper watching goal, so I won't have to whinge to myself about plotting and characterization.

[katarik]

Bits of it make me eyeroll a lot, but the Cat and Alice still make me very, very happy. I hope if you get around to a rewatch you enjoy it anew, and any of the others you get!

(They are available on Netflix or Youtube... )

[caffeine_buzz]

This is reminding me I really need to rewatch Care Bears in Wonderland again sometime. I always remember that one as being the only Care Bears movie I know for sure I saw in a theater, but it doesn't seem to show up randomly on cable as often as the first two movies so it's been an age since I've seen it. I'm curious how that one holds up.

[katarik]

I really like Alice, and I love the Cheshire Cat to pieces. The Jabberwock resolution is kind of ridiculous, but, well, Care Bears.

And it's such glorious Grumpy Bear.
