The Croods	comment	Set in a fictionalized prehistoric era, The Croods is a CG animated family film from DreamWorks Animation, about an overprotective caveman father named Grug whose one rule among his family is to never leave their cave. When his daughter Eep grows into a curious teenager, she wanders outside. Encroaching earthquakes destroy their home while the family is outside, forcing them to seek shelter elsewhere. Grug's philosophy is threatened when they must venture out into the world to find another home and brave dangerous creatures. They encounter a more evolved and intelligent male teenage caveman named Guy, who creates several useful inventions, and warns that the world is ending.The Croods is written and directed by Chris Sanders, the director of Lilo & Stitch and How to Train Your Dragon, and Kirk DeMicco. It was released on March 22nd, 2013. It is the DreamWorks Animation's first film to be distributed under Twentieth Century Fox following their departure from Paramount a year earlier. The first trailer can be viewed here, and the second trailer here.A prequel series, Dawn of the Croods, premiered on Netflix during Christmas of 2015 and concluded in 2017. A sequel, The Croods: A New Age, fell into Development Hell following Universal's takeover of DreamWorks Animation, but finally entered production and released on November 25, 2020. A follow-up series for that film, The Croods: Family Tree, premiered on Hulu and Peacock in September 2021. A tie-in mobile game (which is no longer available for download) was created by Rovio Entertainment, notable for being one of their first major post-Angry Birds projects.

The Croods / int_1dfd19f9	comment	Papa Wolf: Grug outright states that it's his job to protect the family and keep them safe from danger. This comes to a head when he throws them all (including Guy) across the cliff to safety. Shortly after, we can see that he's resigned himself to his fate, because as long as his family is safe, he's okay with dying. But the instant he thinks someone's in danger, he immediately comes up with a way to get back to them, because imminent death is no excuse for this man.

It's implied that several of the creatures we see are afraid of the dark BECAUSE the Piranhakeets are nocturnal.

There's a scene where they can't find Gran and Grug starts showing a completely elated expression. Cue Grug's mother-in-law popping out saying "I'm still alive~!" Grug immediately becomes extremely disappointed and mutters to himself, "It's still early." Later, Grug is upset over his family finding Guy's ideas amazing, as his philosophy has always been to distrust new things. Then Gran tells his wife that if Grug ever has an idea, she'll probably have a heart attack and die. Cue Grug trying to come up with new things.

The Croods / int_7febc23b	type	Establishing Character Moment
The Croods / int_7febc23b	comment	Establishing Character Moment: Each of The Croods gets a moment one at a time that establishes their personalities. First is Grug, who goes out to scare off smaller animals, only for the rest of the family to come out before he can even give them his signal, establishing him as a seldom-respected patriarch who's default behavior falls under "Anger Born of Worry" for his family in a world that could end them at any moment. Eep is the first to leave the cave without her father's warning, basking in the openness beyond the cave and complaining about being in there "forever", showing that she is exasperated by her father's paranoia and would prefer a life more fulfilling than simple survival. Sandy is introduced running out in all fours and biting at a giant bug with no fear while her mother Ugga comes out to get her and to go back into the cave so that Grug could warn them, establishing the former as a Wild Child and the later as a dutiful wife and mother who is willing to go along with Grug's precautions. Thunk is the only one who waits for Grug's signal, only to point out how confusing it is that the whole reason why he gives the signal is to make sure that dangerous animals aren't about (even though Grug's signal is itself an animal noise), Thunk being the dutiful and loyal son inspite of Grug's faulty logic. Gran announces "still alive" to the chagrin of an openly disappointed Grug, calling him fat when he quips that the day's "still early". This establishes that Gran is The Gadfly to Grug's authority, Grug in-turn having little respect for her back. When Eep meets Guy, she very easy overpowers him before he quickly befriends her, introducing her to fire and a calling-shell if she changes his mind about coming with him, establishing him as less physically imposing than the Croods, but intelligent, compassionate and a touch lonely.

The Croods / int_916c72b3	comment	Rule of Symbolism: With the heavy use of Light/Darkness Juxtaposition, this becomes a recurring theme in the film. The film's beginning has the rule that "Darkness brings Death" as a reason why the Croods (and by extension, Guy, Chunky and many of the animal characters) cower and hide away when the sun sets. Having not discovered fire yet, the Croods live most of their lives in the darkness of the cave which, while cosy and safe, is dull and oppressive, leaving the Croods to not so much "live" as "not-die". Guy — a positive and progressive influence on the family's lives — is the one who introduces fire to them, is himself afraid of the dark and has spent his entire life following the sun. The sun itself (the original light-source) can be read as a symbol of hope, as Eep, Guy and later Grug (after reconciling with Guy) reach for it multiple times. The story Guy tells the family involves a young tiger riding the sun to "Tomorrow", an abstract idea of a better future. Fire can also be applied as a metaphor for the outside world; this bright and beautiful thing that can also be incredibly dangerous. The light from Guy's torch peeking through the cave door leads Eep (and by proxy the rest of the family) out of the safety of the cave, an effect that proves to have both positive and negative effects on their lives. The Croods have seen the outside world as an inherently terrifying place frought with danger, but with Guy's help they learn how to adapt and appreciate the good things about it too.

The Croods / int_a116a489	comment	Herald: It is when Guy passed by the Crood's cave at night that marks the change of the status quo. Eep follows the light of his torch where she is introduced to fire. Guy and the rest of the family follows her, thinking that she was snatched by a predator. While "The End" would have come whether Guy had met any of them or not, if it wasn't for him, the Croods would have been crushed to death in their own cave and likely would not have survived afterwards.

Chunky and Grug call truce when they're in a cave just as the world is ending and only light from a single torch for comfort. They commit to escaping together when Grug hears Eep's horn. As Grug later comments, he found out he's a cat person.

The Croods have all grown used to living out in the open and suddenly find the darkness of the cave uninviting. Eep calls out her father for keeping them in the dark (literally and figuratively) and that the old ways don't work anymore and that they would have been dead dozens of times over if they listened to him instead of Guy. This prompts him to attack Guy for essentially turning his family against him.

The Piranhakeets are light-fearing aerial predators that emerge from underground lairs at nightfall and hunt in large, vicious flocks.

But what a danger it is. This makes it a Man vs. Nature plot for the overarching plot, while the Main vs. Impact story is whether or not to embrace change, and various characters have major or minor arcs about overcoming their limiting mindsets (e.g. Thunk realizing that he can do things for himself and doesn't need to fearfully wait to be told how to act). The characters certainly butt heads a lot, but there's no villain, and even a few of the seeming baddies become allies by the end.

The Croods / int_f25493f4	comment	Nothing Exciting Ever Happens Here: While the threat of death is everywhere, Eep's biggest problem with life by the beginning of the film is the fact that simply "surviving" isn't enough for her.

The Croods / int_f4b1129f	comment	First is Grug, who goes out to scare off smaller animals, only for the rest of the family to come out before he can even give them his signal, establishing him as a seldom-respected patriarch who's default behavior falls under "Anger Born of Worry" for his family in a world that could end them at any moment.

The Croods / int_f51c5f3c	comment	Never Say "Die": Averted frequently. All of Grug's cautionary tales end in some variation of "and then he DIED!" When Guy first meets the Croods, he tells Eep (not knowing the she is a Crood too), that he'll have to "take their lives".

The Croods / int_f5eda11	type	Mix-and-Match Critters
The Croods / int_f5eda11	comment	Mix-and-Match Critters: In a contrast to real life prehistoria from Ice Age, Chris Sanders' designs really show this in the fauna featured in the movie. The one exception is Guy's sloth pal. Apparently they're supposed to be missing links: There's a saber-toothed cat with a macaw's colors (Word of God calls him a Macawnivore). A giant saber-toothed rabbit with tiger stripes (Bunny Beast). Sea turtles with bird wings in place of flippers called Turtle Doves. Small birds that swarm and eat through things like piranhas called Piranhakeets. Mice that look like elephants called Mousephants. A giant "cat" with the face of an owl and the build and claws of a bear (Bear Owl). Emu-like birds with duck bills and rams' horns (Ramu). Lizards that look like dogs called Liyotes. "Dogs" that look like crocodiles called Crocopups. Kid-sized saber-toothed giant mosquitos. An elephant with a giraffe's color pattern (Girelephant). Land-dwelling whale-like creatures that disguise themselves as rocks (Land Whales). A mouse-like species that is born in pairs, conjoined by a striped tail (Trip Gerbil). A small mammal that looks like a gourd with piranha teeth (Bear Pear).

The Croods / int_f64a9cf7	comment	Earn Your Happy Ending: The Croods must face their worst fears in an incredibly dangerous land, change their entire philosophy of their lives, face the probable loss of Grug in a moment of crisis to become joyfully adventurous explorers of their world.

The Croods / int_fb9e2ffd	comment	Team Pet: A lot of team pets actually, as the Croods discover that many animals are quite tamable and manageable. Grug gets a Macawnivore called "Chunky", Guy, his "pet" sloth Belt, they all get another trusty steed in the form of a Cat-Owl. Thunk manages a Crocopup called "Douglas" and even a young Ground Whale to ride.

The Croods / int_fd1b902c	comment	Non-Malicious Monster: Nearly all of the wildlife. Even the big ones, despite their outward ferocity, are all fairly intelligent, and just like the Croods, are trying to survive. When they attempt to learn and understand these exotic animals, they find most of them are docile and/or tamable.

The creature doesn't step in the spot and Eep responds "Uh, it didn't step in your trappy thing."
