My choice of words was perfect. It was a completely legitimate use of the word "children" (as in, for instance "To leave this planet to our children in good shape"), all your rather tedious nagging notwithstanding. Why do you always enter that mode, BTW? You start bending facts, complain, misrepresent posts... why not just stick to one issue?You went headlong and for no good reason in the children direction - blame yourself only.
Pardon me, but your post makes even less sense now. It desn't even look like you can read English. OK... MY English, if you wish for a cheap way out.
So while the children's films do not really interest me here (inspite of your rather lame misrepresentation of my statements), I see no reason to believe Hollywood does an outstanding job in that category. It is obvious you are not familiar with the chidrens films outside the US, but there is plenty of life there. Like I said, I think I know why they are not being imported here - at my age I had seen many outstanding French, Russian, Japanese children's films, but most of them of course do not meet the US distribution criteria. Main reason, I suspect, is the presumption that children would not tolerate the subtitles. I actually have little argument here.
So tin made a very reasonable statement of his opinion and position. That did not sit well with you and your Corsican Brother Scott. You came out like bats from hell and both made little sense. You are making even less now.
What you childishly call "Hollywood Bashing" is basically just an observation, and I have really no sympathy for your position that one should post here some sort of non-existent "facts" - as I tried to state several times, in art there are no objective facts, there are only opinions. Your liking of Hollywood is just an opinion, and so is tin's or mine. While you gladly take your right to do so, you seem to refuse the others the same right.
You caught me on my lunch break, so you got more than 100 words... most likely not the words you would like, but hey, unlike you I do not state them "facts" - so pay whatever you want for this.
