    It’s a silly point though. You mean the Pop-Tart movie written by Jerry Seinfeld doesn’t make a point??? Well color me surprised.

      Barbie is a movie that is about a children’s toy, and it talks about feminism, toxic masculinity, among others. Godzilla is a movie where a man in a giant reptile costume breaks apart facsimile buildings, but talks about the terror of nuclear attacks at the same time. Just because movies are about silly things doesn’t mean that the professionals that work on them aren’t allowed to put more into their work.

        And? Not every movie has to make a stance on something. It’s written by Jerry Seinfeld. Do you really care about his thoughts on some political, environmental or social issues?

          Not every movie has to be about deep things, but if you make it about nothing then don’t be surprised when people collectively say “meh” and ignore your movie.

            Sure. I wasn’t arguing against that. I just said it’s a silly article if it’s whole point was “the movie is funny, but the movie about Pop-Tarts by Jerry Seinfeld isn’t deep enough”.
