While in class last week viewing the CYOA film, I noticed that whenever a questionable decision was made death was certain. Could the director of these films motivation come from aiding in teaching children what not to do in life? Read more . . .
Lets review:
The first decision that the class made was to parachute out of the limping plane(for obvious reasons, who doesn't want to sky dive?). The landing was successful, yet after this daredevil decision it seemed as though all of the endings included failure. The choice to jump out of the plane lead all paths toward imminent doom, without encountering the yeti. The thought of jumping out of a failing airplane seems logical, yet its dangerous nature apparently is exactly what the director wants children to avoid.
The encounter with the stranger once in the square of the town radiated the idea to avoid shady men at all costs, as all of the endings involving following the random sketchball ended in a gruesome manner. Bravo, director... That is a good lesson, I support that idea... Not skydiving is questionable however.
