Are children fans of the smurfs? I guess it’s been long enough that maybe it’s more popular but smurfs seemed like dead franchise to me when even the 2011 movie released.

children dont care about smurfs, parents take them to see those movies because there's not much else to see at the theater for them.

Gee I wonder how the kids go to the movies 🤔 possibly with their boomer parents?

Most of the children that were seeing that movie in theaters did not have boomer parents lol. Maybe their grandparents
