Of course they are not. [In reply to] Can't Post

They are not meant to be "children films". If that is what you expected when you went in to see AUJ, then I understand that you are dissapointed with the outcome. The label "children's book" implies that the book is of less value than other books which I find untrue, because TH is a lot more than a generic book for kids.



The greatest adventure is what lies ahead.
