I never really thought of it that way, but you're absolutely right!

Came here to say the same thing!

It didn't bother me, but not having had a an older sibling I was close to - I found it believable that a big brother would take a "dad" role. But things with dead fathers always irk me these days.

I tried watching this the other day and couldn't get past the first 20min or so. It just felt bland and annoying at the same time? I figured I'd give it another shot, because I did like the setting of this modern magical world. But if that's the big lesson, I'm not sure.

....Yeah that was a weird moral. The climax was beautiful, but the message was...".....huh ok?"

The last good thing Pixar ever made was Wall-E, don't @ me

I didn't get that impression? It's obvious he felt he was missing a father figure, but nothing about realising his brother fit that role made anything his mother did while he was growing up... LESS. At least not the way I saw it.

TBF though, I was sort of meh about the whole movie, it just seemed very mediocre in general to me.

[erinptah]

The way I took it was, he's spent the whole movie thinking of his big brother as basically an immature daydreaming screw-up. And the end is when he looks back and realizes "oh, big brother has actually been supportive and reliable and was paying attention to my needs the whole time (and now it's my turn to pay attention to his)."

Meanwhile, he already appreciated his mom from the start of the movie, so "wow, mom is great" wouldn't have been a big emotional revelation.

I'm with you on the meh feeling, though. It had nice individual scenes, but the movie overall just...didn't grab me.

I didn't like the ending for a lot of reasons, but this is one I didn't consider and I'm mad all over again.

[(Anonymous)]

As someone with a big brother who filled in for an absent father, I really liked it. It doesn’t take anything from the mother to find validation from a different relationship. I love my mother and know how much she sacrificed for me, but she could never do for me the things my brother did. The fact that my brother never should have had to is a whole other can of worms.

I haven't seen the film but I'm not surprised, Pixar is such a boys' club in their movie output as well.
