No one ever brings up the darkest aspect of the movie: the big monsters go out, find kids, and trick them into coming down into their world, where they are then trapped forever and mutated into some sort of freakshow monster. Watch the baseball scene, which you somehow forgot to show. It's all little kids in costumes. They're all missing children, trapped in a dark netherworld, forced to scare and kidnap other kids for the evil monster boss. They even had a party set up for Brian when he finally turned. Maurice isn't a hero, he was working with the bad guy for the whole movie, almost got five kids trapped in a nightmarish hell, and finally had a crisis of conscience at the end of it all.

[@soulance8342]

I'm fully convinced this movie is about pedophiles. Abducting kids by luring them in with "fun" and "no rules" while they slowly groom them only to be taken advantage of. The monsters one weakness, light or exposure. Before these kids realize what's going on they have become monsters themselves.

The point of this film should've been Brian turning into a monster because he got more and more nasty and he only figures this out when it's nearly too late to reverse it. Sometimes the more obvious plot would've been the better one.

That was probably considered, this may have been a horror movie in its original draft. Only becoming a 'kids movie' when the script was salvaged from the shredding room.

[@Minecraftfan309]

Sebas Peimbert There was a divorce subplot in Jurassic World?

[@Minecraftfan309]

Spoder Men Well I'll definitely agree that it was useless because I have no memory of that scene.

[@kenrickeason]

It had no meaning to the story or lead anywhere within the story.. It should of been a one of the deleted scenes..

[@fendelphi]

Actually, there was a point in JW. The kids were sent to the aunt, because the parents were busy getting the papers in order. They would not have been there at all, if the parents were not getting a divorce. It also presents a reason why they should "stick" together, in spite of the age difference. The big brother is at the age where they typical want to be independence, but he is "forced" to take care of his little brother. He is reluctant about it, but also understand that it is a hard time for his little brother. (as most big brothers at that age would rather just walk around alone, than spending time with their little brother). In other words, the subplot assist in telling why they are on the island, and their relation and interaction with each other. In Little Monsters, I guess there is a point with the brothers having to "stick together", since they wont be able to rely on their parents. It is just shown in a really mumbled way, and we already had an incentive for the big brother to look after the little brother(as the big brother is the one responsible for monsterworld/humanworld interaction).

[@fendelphi]

But what kind of parent would send their kids alone, unless there was a "good" reason for it? And if they simply won tickets, the older brother would not have an incentive to stick around his younger "less cool"(snort) younger brother. I mean, a young man in his late teens, on an island without his parents, would not be "hanging" with his much younger little brother, unless there was a reason(in this case, comfort him during the divorce).

I love the fact that the "bully" in this did absolutely nothing wrong.

[@bio-exorcist9949]

I was always confused as to why the “bully” shows up to help at the end. We see Maurice showing up to wake him up, but we never get any scenes about why he agreed to help or how Maurice may have motivated him to do so

I remember watching this when I was a kid and even then, I too thought it was pretty mean-spirited. The scene where the monsters go into the baby's room for the sole purpose of scaring her and making her cry is the part I remember the most; I found it disturbing when I watched it.

[@bio-exorcist9949]

I’m convinced the only reason that scene exists is to make Brian finally have a conscience and realize that maybe these monsters aren’t really who he needs to associate with. They have no morals. Even Maurice doesn’t feel bad about scaring the baby. It was.... messed up

Little Monsters: Because everyone's a bit of an asshole :P In all seriousness though, this is yet another great example of a kid's movie that could be re-worked into a horror movie: A monster shows up and befriends a child who is alienated and miserable due to his parents moving to another town and get divorced, maybe the move was even part of the plan to divorce in the first place for some reason. The parents, especially the father, become more frustrated because of their failed marriage and start taking it out on their kids, the elder brother specifically. The boy is taken in to the monster world and everyone there welcomes him with open arms and everything seems great as now he has a place to escape to when he needs to escape from his increasingly horrific home life. He begins to turn into a monster and discovers that the monsters he thought were his friends begin to show their cruelty and in fact were originally humans at one time, too.

Okay, so there's this monster city under my bed and Howie Mandel is one of them--*slap*!

man i remember watching this as a kid on disney but its amazing how many horrible things that can be overlooked that really makes that person uncomfortable when seeing it as a adult but really nothing gave me nightmares now the scene were the birds take their heads off from labyrinth will probably mentally scar most kids and maybe half the adults as well

"Brian's got a girlfriend! Brian's got a girlfriend!" What exactly did the director tell Howie Mandel? Behave like a child?
