I have already been over this so many times. Go read any of my other responses.

I don't think you've been over this a lot of times. You haven't responded to the basic idea at all.

You've spent a lot of time going over why and how the movie was probably designed with children in mind so that people would watch it. And I agree with you on that. In fact, I said so in my post. Explicitly. You haven't responded to the central argument that it's not a kids' movie because kids aren't the primary audience. The arguments been made multiple times in the above thread and as far as I can see, every reply you've made has been listing choices the movie makers made to appeal to kids. But that's not the argument at all. I think that's why people are responding with disbelief here - because it's sincerely hard to believe you're actually this obtuse. You're an incredibly smart poster but you keep making these arguments that are kind of besides the point, to the point where (knowing that you're a really smart poster) I'm legitimately wondering whether this wasn't a really masterful troll.

Seriously, though. I agree with the fact that many of the decisions made in making GotG were made so that kids would be able to watch it and enjoy it. Taking that in mind, nevertheless, how is it a kids' movie when that's not the primary audience and that hasn't been the main group of people who have seen it?

You seem like someone so desperate to seem grownup you've gone and concocted a completely ridiculous notion of what grownup actually is.
