Malin Kundang a local Indonesian fairytale, tells us not to be so mean to our mother. - oichidan

Three Little Pigs I guess it's essence is : We should be prepared if we want to survive this harsh world. - TheStoryHunter

What about The Lego Movie? Everyone points out the obvious one of not being afraid to embrace your own uniqueness, but I also read another deeper meaning.
Individuality is great, but using your creativity as a team is where we all really shine.
Remember, why was Emmet so special? He knew how to work as a team! - LadyKnightSkyee

Dante's Divine Comedy is a prime example of the allegorical theme.  The main theme to analyze is the fact that the story is about a man in the middle of his life (reaching a mid-life crisis) being guided through the three realms of the afterlife, (Hell, purgatory and Paradise) and being explained the process of punishment, repent and being rewarded for their lives. - The-Infamous-MrGates

300 (the film) comes to mind. Aside from all the crazy (awesome) bloodshed and (ridiculous) machoism, the basis of the story is a group of people willing to defend their way of life (the soldiers and Leonidas), even when their way of life makes that difficult (the senate and corrupt politicians). They are more concerned with preserving their right to self-governance, even if it is flawed, than with living a long life, which is an allegory for the ideals of freedom and autonomy. - LiliWrites

The Labyrinth (1986) always seemed to me to be (at least partially if not wholly) about not taking for granted those you love in moments of frustration. - thedreadpoetroberts

The Matrix is a modern day interpretation of the Cave. - inknalcohol

The Time Machine [by H.G. Wells] is about a world where class differences are so rampant that the lower class and upper class have evolved into different species. The story makes it obvious that Wells sees this scenario as a very negative thing and class difference as therefore a prominent problem in his society that needed attention and solution. - schongslipper

No Coincidenceyou destroyed
this poem
it was well
thought out
and packed so
tightly with sights
souls and sounds
that you broke it
with your sharp
earth-centricity
left it cut open
and leaking
felled by your
expectations
this poem fizzles
with predictably
fried windings
its motors unable
to find their
home positions
calibration fails
obsolete, the
whole thing falls
into a
curiously ready,
perfectly sized
and shaped hole
i do my part
and let it go
anything
to steady
and level
the floor of creation   I Can't Let GoCall me spineless , god -
just say what you want, but I
will still keep closing
my eyes
I swear,
I'm thirteen, no, twenty hundred million times
more greedy than you think I am,
so please interlock your fingers with mine,
smile, and laugh while looking
into my eyes
Do I have to let go
because I only spent the change now
and answered your call
too late?
Are we expired and going
to go to waste laying on a
supermarket shelf because I am
too late?
I have too many tardies to count
and my teachers and classmates
always like to laugh at me,
so I guess it's to be expected that I
messed up again
I always mess up
But I'm sorry -
I still can't seem to let go
of your sleeve even if
I'm covering my eyes
with my other hand  :thumb450614575:
