In this episode of the Foundation Worldview Podcast, Elizabeth Urbanowicz reviews the new Pixar film Hoppers.
While the movie contains engaging storytelling, beautiful animation, and themes about relationships and caring for nature, it also presents a worldview that treats humans as just another animal in the ecosystem.
So how can Christian parents help their kids think biblically about the ideas presented in the film?
Elizabeth walks through both the positive and negative elements of Hoppers and shares four key worldview questions parents can discuss with their children after watching the movie. These questions help kids evaluate cultural messages and compare them with what Scripture teaches about creation, humanity, and God’s ultimate plan to restore the world.
If your family is considering seeing Hoppers, or if you've already seen it, this episode will help you decide—and equip you to turn the movie into a meaningful biblical conversation.
