Adults and children see differently

On a more eye-catching level, "The Muppet Movie" seems to be struggling to maintain the nostalgic attitude and the innovation of the times at the same time, so the main creator simply gave up this effort and turned to the story itself. Mainstream Hollywood cartoons have always delivered a double message. Child viewers will see a relaxed and cheerful entertainment story, while adult viewers will be able to understand the discussion of more serious propositions such as family, life, responsibility, and courage. Most Hollywood animation works move between these two extremes. For example, "Despicable Me" and "Rapunzel" are not educationally meaningful, they focus on telling an adventure story for children, while "Shrek" and "Rango" "Added the plot connotation, obviously biased towards the adult perspective. Animation leader Pixar has always been able to make a delicate balance between the two, but last year's "Cars 2" significantly lowered the average age of the audience, this year's "Brave Ambition" seems to maintain this trend.
