I've only seen the specials and the space babies, and I've really loved the new direction. I'm reading a lot of negative reactions to the later episodes, so I'll see how I fare with those.
Yeah, I don't want this for my phone right now, but I do think that this would help me sleep easier with my grandfather who has already fallen for multiple scams.
Barbie is a movie that is about a children's toy, and it talks about feminism, toxic masculinity, among others. Godzilla is a movie where a man in a giant reptile costume breaks apart facsimile buildings, but talks about the terror of nuclear attacks at the same time. Just because movies are about silly things doesn't mean that the professionals that work on them aren't allowed to put more into their work.
This movie exists because studios will fund projects that are connected to ip, and it's ridiculous that pop-tarts counts.
The movie isn't choosing to say anything. It is telling jokes to have fun and that's as far as it's willing to take it.
Now, does this make it a bad movie? That's for you to decide. If all you want from a film is to be entertained with some jokes? It sounds like it's good, but that's not what the author is speaking to. The author is speaking to people that enjoy films that have points of view that they are expressing. If that isn't you, that's okay.
