George Orwell - Animal Farm (ENGLISH Part 8/8)

This movie, I think is relevent to this topic, as it is based on the communist revolution in Russia, when the concept of utopia was hijack by some elite pigs and of coarse (as always) degenerated into despotism. The same happens everywhere there are good intentioned movements
who work for peace and a better tommorow but are comprimised from within...

the book ending was much more depressing

[MissPancakeSugar]

What happened to the little duck? :O

[commonsenseforUSA]

You mean the ending? Well, think about it for a second. The people who saw this movie probably didn't read the book first. As such, they probably wouldn't appreciate the full-circle, almost fatalist ending of the book. It wouldn't translate well to a cartoon. When you can see the indignities and suffering perpetuated on cartoon animals by other animals with your eyes instead of imagining it, you (the audience) need an uplifting ending to avoid feeling like you had your soul sucked out. You see?

They turned a beautiful story full of symbolism into something like propaganda. Shameful.

[Mcdeeman21]

Why do adaptions of books keep screwing up the endings to Orwells books. It wasn't so bad in this, but the ending to 1984 didn't make any sense in the film.

[TheHaxman999]

Further ending. They become bacon. Yum

[nicholas mcgill]

Because the pigs were a representation of the borsheviks lead by Stalin and when the original book was written the communist party was growing stronger

[BadVoodo0]

so the pigs won in the book... thats fucked up

[ThatOneGuyNamedLouis]

They describe how the pigs who had led the revolution turned into what they were meant to be fighting, and that they had become indistinguishable from the humans they had rebelled against, and that's the end of the book. 

[MindlessExcess]

god what a bullshit ending that ruins the entire story

[liesmith]

the book ending was much more accurate

[hydras2danewbunch]

@MissPancakeSugar "Years passed". He's an old duck by now.
