    My solution is just to watch it with the babies. Having kids cackle at some dumb jokes makes watching a kids movie fun, their laughter is infectious. I watched Avengers part whatever with my nephews and honestly had a good time even though it's total slop. Or maybe it was one of the Thor movies. I honestly couldn't give a shit. But the kids had fun so that's all I cared about. Plus I got some popcorn and some Mike and Ikes.

        One of the funniest and depressing things I read in recent years was some dude saying "dune is proof you can make a star wars film for adults" and all I could think was "you are so close to understanding star wars is for children but still so far away."

            For sure. I mean it's "all ages" entertainment. Who doesn't like seeing Chewbacca throw around some space nazis. But people take it too far. I feel bad for the kid who played Anakin. The star wars nerds really raked him over the coals and just... that poor boy never deserved that hate.

                That's another example. Poor dude just did a job and they bullied him for it.
