Home Films/DVD Asylum

Movies from comedy to drama to your favorite Hollyweird Star.

Exactly

The real issue here is that while the first 2 Star Wars films embraced both young and old, or in a more corny way of sying it - the child in all of us, the last film in the original triology veered into kiddy land, fuzzy creatures and toy product placements. He's completed the evolution here with PM in that all of the thinkers and drivers of the action are now children. Children who dont need to be able to act because thats a subtlety lost on an 8 year old audience.

An audience that LOVES fart jokes.

Unfortuantely for him Shrek and Monsters Inc. do the kid thing even better than he does. And adults go to those films expecting a childrens film with enough adult humor to interest them too. Unfortunately for him (and us as well) the adults remeber what the first films delivered and against that yardstick what follows will inevitably come up short so long as he continues down this path.
