The first movie I ever saw in theaters was the Pixar classic Finding Nemo. There is so much to love about that flick, and it’s not just because I watched it over and over again on DVD throughout my entire childhood. Finding Nemo is a perfect example of Pixar doing what Pixar does best; telling a beautiful and emotional story starring anthropomorphic talking beings. It’s more funny than sad, but when it’s sad, it’s really sad. We get a mom death 3 minutes in, and the emotional rollercoaster doesn’t stop until the end. It is far superior to its blatant knock-off, Shark Tale. For better or for worse, it revived Ellen DeGeneres’s career. Most importantly, it touched children’s hearts and will do so for years to come, and made many kids want to become marine biologists. If you were one of those Gen Zers or Millennials who wanted to and did not become marine biologists when they grew up, these animal memes will fill that void.
