Apparently many of the fairy tales weren’t originally just for kids, so it made sense that some would have more mature themes. It was adult entertainment.
I think we might worry that broad-appeal media might be too sanitized, even by huge corporations. But that’s always been the case. Niche media is always there to fill in the void. And we’re living in a golden age of media to satisfy every conceivable long-tail interest.
