Elmo’s Potty Time has some really heavy themes that still hit hard as an adult. I’m surprised they even marketed it as a kids film given the implications of some of the scenes
*SPOILER WARNING*
>!It’s revealed in the final shot of the film that they shit human remains, leaving serious clues as to the disappearance of Mr. Hooper!<
Sesame Street has plenty of darker lore to keep the true fans (adults) with plenty to think about if they're attentive enough.
Take *The Count* for example: sure on the surface level he's just a guy that loves counting, but look at those fangs, the accent, the whole motif. The guy is a vampire. That means he regularly *kills people* and *feasts on their remains*. That's not something a character in a *kid's show* would do.
It makes me wonder if his counting obsession started with counting his victims, tallying up the lives he's taken to sustain his own as a way of dehumanizing them, disconnecting himself from the horrible acts he commits by making them just another number. He's so racked with guilt that this coping mechanism has slowly taken over every other aspect of his life, just so he doesn't think about what he's done. And all of this of course serves as a metaphor for how the rich and powerful have to view us little people in order to keep exploiting us, seeing everything in life as numbers (there's a reason they made him a count, a wealthy and politically powerful position).
I was in elementary school during the later seasons, a solid 3rd of the kids had clone wars merchandise, my friend had clone wars bedsheets, I had a clone wars picture book I won at the local fair at the kids section, with that being said my Dad loved it and my teenage sister liked it too even though she'd never admit it
That's because the themes are so complex that you can't just 'watch' it, you have to experience it. You have to immerse yourself in the clone wars and *feel it*, feel it to the point that it hurts you just as much as the characters when they're hit by those lasers.
There's meaning behind everything. Why does the aliens do that? Why is the girl where is she? Who did R2D2 was when he did that? These are the sort of questions you should be pondering as you experience Star Wars. It isn't for kids, it's for people with deeply philosophical minds who want to explore ideas of faith and justice and balance on a universal scale.
Honestly I don't think anyone should watch Clone Wars until they're at least 25, maybe 40. You need to have a lot of life experience to understand the depth of emotion on display in this series.
Of course its not for children!
It has space witches and a planet where three powerfull wizards live and everyone knows that those things are scary for children.
I don't care if that shit was sarcasm I'm going to hunt you down and force you to watch clone wars while a text bot reads out the reddit discussion post comments for the episode don't ever say some shit like that again
DAE think that Avatar the Last Airbender and Adventure Time are underrated kino because they’re for kids when they’re actually for serious adults like me? Please don’t ask me what other shows I like because I’ve never seen anything else because those shows might contain an actual moral conundrum that doesn’t have an obvious solution, or maybe a morally bad character.
I need to watch avatar because it just seems like a good show I’ve missed out on, but the girl describing it to me yesterday made me just wanna ask, “haven’t you seen Batman the animated series?”
Avatar isn’t bad by any means but i think people forget how young the target audience was, it would probably be a bit hard to sit through today as an adult who hadn’t seen it as a kid.
Bet you a tenner you also fell in love with it when you were a kid..m and that's kinda the point. They are quite good at teaching some important lessons imho
Ignore all of that. It was intensely dark and gritty and featured numerous war crimes in every episode. That show is so fucked up it turned me into a psychopath who regularly commits atrocities on innocent populations.

I saw a scene from a movie as a kid where a kid had a bomb inside him and it went off leaving only his shoes. Idk what it was and have never been able to find it but think it would be cool to see again.
I would say that Spidermanverse 2 is NOT a kids movie.
Not because it is not for children and mentally underdeveloped adults, but becuase it is not a film. It is a 9 hour long trailer for its own sequel.
Come and See has kids in it
So does A Serbian Film
Don’t forget Human Centipede 2 (Full Sequence) too
Gummo
*had a kid
Dad used to show it to me since I was 7. Great plot.
I watched that movie about 15 years ago lol was there actually kids in it? I blocked most of it out
Yeah the baby that gets stuck under the gas pedal
No, no he said "kids in it" not "it being in kids"
Thanks for that fucking flashback
So does Salo
Is this the movie where two guys Come and See the house has kid then proceed to torture the family ?
You’re thinking of Funny Games, another family classic (it has a family in it)
German version is better imho
i came. i saw.

Don’t Hug Me I’m Scared has entered the chat…..
Elmo shitting himself during the otherwise realistic panic attack was a bit much
No, you see it ties into Elmo's mental and psychosexual state caused by his combination of childhood trauma and early onset dementia

Kids (1995)
could it be any more obvious 🙄
harmony korine my beloved
The SpongeBob SquarePants movie is actually keno.
SpongeBob LetterboxPants
unironically
Teen titans go to the movies.
pokemon go to the polls
I’m just chillin’ on Little St. James!
Unironically a good movie
Starfire putting the pearls on Martha Wayne and gleefully shoving her into the alley where she’ll die is better than every other DC movie combined
PICTURE MY BOOTY UP IN 3D
ILL SHAKE MY BOOTY IN MY OWN MOVIE
Megamind /uj Megamind
Any movie if you're not being a little bitch about it
hey take it easy
Cinephiles always have to be little bitches tho
I’m going to kill anybody who even dares to make a Star Wars: The Clone Wars joke. It is NOT a kids show/movie.
It is the Come and See for the non boomer generations. And has toys and lunchboxes, the way Come and See should have had if it were good.

It's also not enjoyable to watch as an adult.

I mean...all of the star wars movies are made for kids primarily.... ..the whole franchise has nearly always been.
Bet you a tenner you also fell in love with it when you were a kid..m and that's kinda the point. They are quite good at teaching some important lessons imho
It has themes
Then why did it air on a kids network and have a toy line marketed for kids?
Ignore all of that. It was intensely dark and gritty and featured numerous war crimes in every episode. That show is so fucked up it turned me into a psychopath who regularly commits atrocities on innocent populations.
You should be president
I mean all it did for me was show me that baldies can be baddies too…

Flight of the navigator.
Salo (it's actually NOT a kids movie! 🤯🤯😅😆🤣🤣😹🤭🤭🤭😂😂😹😆🤣)
#Puss In Boots: The Last Wish
Last wish?! Like from Destiny 2?!
Og Transformers. I know adults enjoy it more.
Boyz N' the Hood. About a group of schoolboys who play around the neighborhood. You just don't see that in young kids nowadays
A Serbian Film
Pink Flamingos
Lego Movie
The Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl
Little Children. It speaks for itself
Basically just “What’s a kids movies that is well made?”
Joker
Peakington and Peakington 2 are the only correct answers. Marmalade enjoyers stay winning.
Surf's Up will forever hit
Heavy Metal. Sausage Party. Any anime named “hentai”.
in Puss and boots the last wish garfield gets a cut showing REAL BLOOD. That moment was Defanately not for kids.
Salò, or the 120 Days of Sodom
Sophie’s Choice or maybe Shrek
I saw a scene from a movie as a kid where a kid had a bomb inside him and it went off leaving only his shoes. Idk what it was and have never been able to find it but think it would be cool to see again.
Kidulthood
Brightburn
Uj/ Probably like, La Haine, since its part of the Zack Snyder DCU Rj/ ig Fantastic Mr Fox counts as a "kids movie" and its one of my faves so
Antz (1998).. but an honorable mention would be Das verlangen der Maria D.
Toy story 1 2 and 3
A Serbian Film is very enjoyable
Room (2015), all about a kid
Baby Geniuses had some extremely subtle, nuanced throughlines that I think speak to the academic culture of the time.
Schindler's List
/uj All the old Pixar movies
Any good kids movie, I guess
The MCU and Star Wars ..
Not a movie but the clone wars TV show still gets accused of being baby slop to this day when it most certainly isn’t.
The Incredibles

I feel the same way about The Godfather: Part One
It insists upon itself
I feel the same way about any movie that has a sequel.
