What Does Hollywood Have Against Children?

The new animated Super Mario Bros. Movie racked up a lot of gold coins over the weekend: more than $200 million domestic, to be precise. And Katey Rich, for one, wasn’t surprised to see the film’s enormous take. Why? Because for months now, there’s been a curious drought of G- and PG-rated entertainment in theaters, even though families with small kids are one of the industry’s most dependable demographics. “The only reason my kids know that movies can be even better when you go somewhere else to see them is because I have doggedly emphasized it,” she writes, “despite so many studios, Disney in particular, trying to keep them locked in that streaming ecosystem at home.”
Elsewhere in HWD, Chris Murphy chats with Beef beefcake Joseph Lee; Ariela Barer teaches Esther Zuckerman how to blow up a pipeline; Anthony Breznican recommends where to get your next Brian Cox fix; and Richard Lawson reviews the final season of Barry.
