"I think the greater danger with BTT is that some clueless adult will rent it after seeing the trailer with the giants and fantasy elements and think they're getting a pure fairy tale/fanatsy."

That's the main point I'm making although I probably didn't make it clear.

The cover of the DVD and the title could easily mislead a parent - there is a very friendly looking giant 'Troll' and Terabithia is a magical kingdom after all.

The PG rating should of course ensure that a parent does check things out more closely, but this doesn't always happen.
Loved the film myself though and there are valuable lessons for young and old alike.

Best Regards,
