Target Audience

It often happens that I hear a movie or other such media project dismissed as being aimed a little too directly at adolescents. It seems that if something is too accessible to kids, then it must be flawed in some way.

Hm. Maybe the amount of time I spend with people under the age of 13 has distorted my perspective. Or, maybe? Those critics need a little more tween time.

Either way, I thought The Hunger Games movie was super!

  1. I loved the books, but haven't seen the movie yet. I agree with you. I think the makers were wise to aim this movie at an audience that includes the very tweens the books first belonged to.
