I didn’t say that.
Frank wrote:"Pixar is fine though"
Pixar handles these sorts of topics better than most companies.

Have you watched the Good Dinosaur? :dread.
I haven’t actually seen Frozen, that bloody song is enough to keep me away from it.
The Good Dinosaur, yeah. Great film, definitely one of the scarier Pixar movies. My son watched it when he was really little and I would usual skip through any really scary scenes, but he didn’t really process it at that age though.
He hasn’t really watched Pixar movies now for a couple of years and prefers to watch kids shows like Octonauts or Ada Twist, that sort of stuff.

I wouldn't show kids Onward, but mostly because it's gooseberry fool.
Funnily enough, I tried watching Onward with him and he instantly didn’t like it because of that whole theme of the father having died.

I agree, not sure what the urgency is.
