OK Chief, I will feel from now on what you tell me to feel 😃

Seriously, the Disney that killed childhood thing is obviously a metaphor (or a hyperbole, or whatever, I’m not a linguist). There is another topic with currently 189 pages of discussions about that.
The recurring problem of this thread is that the interlocutors are at different levels of discussion: some take on the first degree what others evoke by analogy only, and vice versa.

As far as I am concerned, the most exaggerated people, the most sanguine or the most “first degree” are not, for all that, “bad fans”. They are fans, extreme fans, hardcore fans… but not “bad”. I do not like this way of judging, and this is what I dislike in the message of kitty.

The sense of perspective you want me to get about the movie (and you are right about that), we all need to get it about this discussion too 😉
As far as I know, “bad people” means something else than an overreacting fan.
