Movies, Part II
To follow up our previous conversation, Soren started again.
Soren: Mom, Ice Age is not real.
Me: That's right. How do you know?
Soren: Because we don't actually know what color dinosaurs were, so those colors on the dinosaurs in Ice Age have to be made up.
Me: (Not sure if the clues that the mammoth talks to the saber-tooth tiger would have been a more obvious clue, but whatever...) And what about Puss in Boots, is that real?
Soren: Made up. (and just as I was starting to think he was learning about animated vs. "real' movies, he finished...) But it must have been really hard to find cats that could do those moves and walk!

I was way too old before I realized Fred, Shaggy, Scooby & Daphne weren't really humans inside of zip-up costumes. I could just picture the giant zipper on the back of their cartoon suits. . .
