think offend is thrown around pretty easy in the last X years (not sure when people started to be offended by everything). and it kinda lost its meaning.
art should trigger you. in one way or another. if its not triggering, what is the point of it. that is probably also a downfall of Hollywood, most of the movies are just WOW cool CGI (or even crappy cgi). No layers in them.
I agree! If it doesn't take you places or show you some new aspect/angle of life, what's even the point? :)
just full entertainment is fine but it feels now 99% of it is just that, and there is a gem form time to time.
