* a bit pointless, but Nicolas [[spoiler: Cherrywood]] was also an orphan, right? I mean he already had a job/apprenticeship And though not really a thing when this movie seemed to take place, it used to be a really common way to deal with what seemed like the growing orphan problem. And if so, why didn't the movie say it? Becuase it makes a shitton more sense for the Magician to just have been his boss rather than family. Family in care bears normally aren't assholes to the point that guy was. Don't even think he apologized.

* Even though the DIC series and Nelvana series share the same voice actors, the Care Bears in the DIC series sound so monotone and calm. The DIC bears look and sound like they just got out of bed. What's up with that?

* Even though the DIC series and Nelvana series share the same voice actors, the Care Bears in the DIC series sound...a bit odd. They sound bored, monotone, and calm all the time. Why is that?

** It's possible doing the character voice was more tiring for their vocal chords, and they realized that the opposite voice was a lot easier for them to do. Unless they used the same voice for different characters, in which case the person above is probably right and they just didn't care.

* In the DIC TV series and the first two films, Billie Mae Richards voiced Tenderheart Bear and Jim Henshaw voiced Bright Heart Raccoon. However, in the Nelvana TV series, their roles switched.

** Maybe they just couldn't remember who played whom. It's not like the Care Bears got very unique characters, after all.

** In the UK comics they were normal animals given their new forms by the Great Star, but its not officially a cannon-set-point.

*** Doubtful. There has to be some type of reason.

* Also in the 2nd movie: where do the Care Bears come from? They are shown sailing a boat in the middle of the sea and then being taken to Care-a-Lot by some giant Star-God. Are they from Earth? Another Planet? Another Demention? Why are all of them babies? Did Dark Heart kill all the adults but two?

** Kind of moot considering the kids seem to be living their lives in a summer camp [[ThereAreNoAdults with no adults]]. Maybe they're ''all'' orphans.
