Sometimes I wonder how this movie got a G-rating. There is an inappropriate reference regarding Pumbaa (though it was subtle), the main character's father is explicitly murdered in front of him by his own brother, and the villain gets a death so brutal it was earlier rejected for Gaston in favor of him falling to his doom (though at least it wasn't explicitly shown).

The MLP movie was rated PG, and it didn't have any of those references, and the only character who died was the main villain, the Storm King (possibly also minor villain Verko who gets electrocuted). He gets turned to stone and smashed to pieces. While some have called it brutal, at least he wouldn't have felt anything.
