The most awkward phase of most of our lives is when you reach that age that you’re too old to like kids movies in a healthy way but also too young to like kids movies in a healthy way.

Like that awkward teen time when you have to pretend to not enjoy a form of entertainment that is essentially universally enjoyed only to prove to people your age that you’re “not a baby”.

Idk if it is still like that. But I remember specifically being that age and my cousin who was like a year older mocked me for liking Elf with Will Farrell. It’s such a weird age.

Though I think this is primarily a part of toxic masculinity. Most girls I knew never had this pressure.

Yeah. I’m with you. Sure some little kids might be afraid of some loud teenagers. But it’s a Minecraft movie. Half the people buying tickets to that shit are doing it specifically to meme. Let the kids be kids.

Actually, i just had a good idea. Restrict the movies age below 15 unless you’ve got a kid under 15 with you. Basically the reverse of an R rating.

Gets rid of most of the cringe 15+ year old that go there to be annoying. Add a separate showing for teens and kids basically.

Actually. This is not a bad idea in general.

Do you mean pirate it? I always used “bootleg” to mean the copies people sell or post online that are specifically camera recordings of the screen.

I have never once watched one of those versions for more than 5 minutes. It’s just garbage quality and audio. I’d sooner not watch a movie.

But if you mean pirate it when it has a digital release. Absolutely! Piracy is alive and well and getting better with every ad or price increase the streaming services add.
