Well like you said
Its only a Movie no one is really getting hurt :)
Ya see the point is pretty much the same when you think about it
Just as there are no people that would not want to see a Kid taken apart,There are those of us that feels the same way when it comes to seeing animals harmed for absolutely no other reason then just cause the writer decides to make his villain more despicabale and evil.

Again, to give you the benefit of the doubt, ill assume you are just being argumantative for the sake of discusiion....
the idea
IS to get you upset.Everyone should, on some level, get pissed off when an animal character is harmed in a movie. Animals are innocents, unless they happen to be the villain themselves. in many cases, they go the animal route because it is just as evil as harming a kid, but less overall upsetting to some degree. (in general)
BUT, the idea is to get you riled up. Hell, in the Rod Warrior, i dont know a single person who car3ed what happened to the weirtd little wolf kid (or maybe Dingo Kid, it was australia..), btu when the dog was killed, people were out for blood. i had one friend who came completely unglued.
Now, a couple more points:
To reiterate, they arent really hurting a living being, it is a not-real character. Yes, animals can be characters too. A tree is character given the right context (there's that "c" word again...)
Second, if the artificial, not real and totally fake animal cruelty in mvoes disturbs you that much, i woudll recommend:
A) Watching mosstly old Disney movies, but not lassie or fox and the hound.
B) Find the number of a good therapist and have some long loong talks about your feelings.
