Seriously? They're all just vehicles to produce cash. Disney is a power house at this. Obviously they are entertaining, but Disney isn't out to make movies just for the sake of making good entertainment.
The only reason any product exists is to make money.
Something being made with money in mind doesn’t exclude its other properties. Apple makes iPhones to make money, but they make phone calls. Disney makes movies to make money, but they provide entertainment.
They aren’t doing it to make the world a better a place. They are doing it for the same reason that most people go to work - to exchange labor for money to suooort their addiction to food and shelter.
And consequently these movies are mostly irrelevant because they only appeal to a tiny fraction of people.
That is my point. They are analagous and equally relevant: no more. No less.
See also, every other company that produce goods and services for profit by getting people to spend money on something they desire.

All entertainment wants to get you ‘hooked’ but that’s mostly a good thing since it makes it enjoyable. Even Homer wrote a sequel!
Both are designed influence behavior and retain your attention. They are for all intents and purposes the same thing. Virtually everything is a wolf in sheep's clothing.
