This one confounds me. Disney and Pixar have produced so much memorable content over the years. Many of these films only came along when I was already an adult. I mean, I was 26 when Toy Story 3 was released. Do these people seriously contend that people like me should have missed out on that masterpiece just because of the number of candles on our birthday cakes? And have they never heard of adult animation? South Park? American Dad? That's a really wacky example because the Toy Story movies aren't in the same league as American Dad or Family guy. The Toy Story movies are for children that like talking toys while adult animation is completely different. OK. Fair enough. But leave aside my South Park example and replace it with Disney's Aladdin, The Jungle Book or The Lion King. All of those are undeniably children's movies and yet it'd be a shame for people to miss out on them simply on account of their ages. To give a personal example, I watched Frozen for the first time one year ago and still consider it one of the best films I watched last year. In fact, it's my favourite film of 2013 to date. And Wreck-It Ralph secures my top spot for 2012. I had no difficulty enjoying them as a grown man in my 20s/30s. And I watch plenty of regular adult movies.

To which one's response should be: "Don't worry. The movie will do them for you." Seriously though, I can understand why if people are tired and just want something light to chill to then they may not be in the right mood for reading off a screen for long periods, but they're missing out if they eschew subtitled films altogether. And quite frankly, in many movies, the subtitles are not necessary for all of the movie. Cue memories of watching Star Trek in German during my trip to Berlin back in 2014. Admittedly, it helps that I have some knowledge of the language.

That movies today are SMARTER than old ones. Okay, point to any movie made in the black and white era and show us two morons, one of them fat and pathetic, going 'uh', 'uh', 'uh', 'uh', 'yeah', 'right' for five minutes. Ain't gonna find it. That's smarter? Do tell, how so?
Haha..
That's actually one thing I've never read or heard!

It was mentioned quite a bit on the old IMDb boards, that movies today are smarter, because people today are smarter and need more intelligent material. If the movies are an indicator of the people, today's audiences are more retarded than anything.
