Bonus points if you insert *political ideology here* in your film so that way you can not only get money, but indoctrinate people to think exactly like you do.
Ahhh.....if this was a few years ago, I would say that's just an American problem cuz you only have 2 parties, but now, well....such movies are pretty famous
Then they have kid's shows which are targeted to children but end up being adored by adult fans because they realized that they grew up too fast and still want to experience those normal childhood shows that they missed out on. Up until recently, children's shows were more focused on the story and characters rather than current political drama so it made for a better show than most "adult" shows anyways.
Take Avatar for example. It's a great story that is loved by adult fans and although it includes heavy-hitting topics they aren't the main focus. They are just brought up because it relates to the story as a whole.
@T.K._Paradox Yours too? My cousin is a 24-year-old shut-in who lives with his mom but doesn't work or go to school. He's pretty much the family member that almost everyone has given up on and my aunt won't do anything to deal with it.
