Or Ratatouille. Just trying to think of "G" rated movies I've seen in the last year or two.

I’ve seen all three of those movies, but not recently enough to be specific, with the exception of Ratatouille. I don’t remember any problems with that movie right off.

In general terms, I see short quips inserted that are off color, introducing some topic that little kids just don’t need to be introduced to. One other thing that I’ve noticed over the last ten years or so, you can hardly go see a comedy that doesn’t introduce flatulence at some point, and the more gross the representation, the better. It seems the maturity level of the writers is pre 14 year old. Kids do find that stuff funny, but parents who are trying to teach their kids mannors aren’t helped by this inclusion.

It’s as if the folks who made these movies didn’t have kids of their own, and in fact hadn’t come in contact with a young innocent kid in ten to twenty years.

My wife and I just saw Enchanted the other day. I thought it was a fairly decent movie for kids. Someone may have noticed something I didn’t.

Hope this explains what I’m trying to address. Sorry I couldn’t be more specific with a recent phrase that might have been on point.
