This is so hilarious to me. It's not like it's a new movie, so I don't get how people are unaware of it's content. I guess they just think it's about cute little bunnies... For fuck's sake, they even gave a warning at the beginning of the film before it began to air. It's like when parents who took their children to see Pan's Labyrinth were pissed off it wasn't a cutesy fairtale. Do some damn research people!

I love Watership Down... one of my favorites as a kid, even though it was intense.
