There are plenty of “kids” movies and TV that are excellent for adults, too.
Listing a few:
- Bluey
- Most of Pixar
- Adventure Time (after Season 1)
- Star Wars Rebels/Clone Wars (again, after Season 1)
- Shrek
- Star Trek: Prodigy
This is not an exhaustive list, but you get the point.

Sure but it doesn’t have to be like that. Shrek is prime example that you can make a movie both groups enjoy

This is like comparing paintings to the Mona Lisa. Shrek is the crowning achievement of our civilization.

Agreed, Shrek is phenomenal but there’s a lot of great films proving adults and children can enjoy the same story even if for different reasons.
The Goonies Princes Bride Kubo And The Two Strings Song of the Sea The Breadwinner
That’s just from the top of my head. There’s plenty.

I didn’t say that it does, lol
I said in another comment that there’ll always be demand for lower quality kids’ media, and that’s okay. Adults don’t need to enjoy every piece of children’s media.

There’s always demand for heroin too. Demand doesn’t mean it’s good.

So there we have it. The two ends of the spectrum of movies made for children: Heroin and Shrek.
