Apparently some people think being a mother has no value. Shows how much they appreciate theirs, I dare say.


Well some of us are judging it by being a movie and not real life. Whatever "use" she had wasn't in the film and therefore makes her useless as a character. Stop comparing this movie to real life and think of characters as characters and not people. Thank you.

There's this little thing called extrapolation. Saying that Jenna's role was useless due to a lack of screentime is like saying that Gandalf's "pressing business away south" in The Hobbit wasn't important.

I personally marked White Wolf. Only because she encouraged Balto to continue and that it isn't all that bad to have wolf within him. Without her, Balto would probably not have recovered and brought the medicine up the hill in time.

And of course, this is all movie wise, not real life Balto.

I changed my vote...seems I misunderstood the question. I thought the question pertained to who was the most POINTLESS character in the series...not the most useful. I recast as Jenna...I do believe she was the most useful and developed of the female characters...seconded by Rosy.

Jenna,without any doubts wasn't pointless at all,because she was more than just Balto's mate,she was a great help to him especially when she fought with the bear in Balto 1,wanted to go with him to help possibly bring Aleu back,in Balto 2,and in Balto 3,disciplined Kodi(Kodiak),when all he worried about was his job.

I can see how that would be, because the topic title and the poll question contrast like that.
