Care Bears: Movies
built 625 days ago
This DVD contains the first two pilot episodes of the Care Bears and a number of the DIC version of the Care Bears. Either companies efforts are up to the standards of Nelvana's 'Care Bear Family' in terms of story or Animation quality, this is especially true of the first two cartoons; which were made by Atkinson Film Arts in 1983, before the two movies come about. The synopsis on the back of the package manages to get details wrong about a few of the cartoons, mostly for Birthday, Braces and Split Decision. The only major antagonist in any of the episodes is Professor Coldheart, who only appears in the first two cartoons.

During the movies, the Care Bear Cousins call their weapon the "Cousin Call." In the second movie, the Call looks like a musical score, and the cousins, excluding Swift Heart Rabbit, use whatever animal noise is common to that animal. In the first movie, the Cousins simply make animal noises since they do not have any tummy symbols; those are later given to them by the Care Bears at the end of the movie.

Recently, Care Bear toys have been brought back in a new edition for the twenty-first century. As part of this comeback, the Bears have appeared in their first two DVD movies (both computer-animated), as well as a few video games.
