It's their artistic expression. If it needs a bit of those scenes to work it's OK. It doesn't mean that they're forcing you as an audience to think you're an animal.

YOU're forcing yourself to think they think about you as an animal, OS! Just like you said, you really feel stupid...and maybe THINK stupid too.

And if this is how plenty of you people are giving thoughts about plenty of movies, then the distribution guys are right. They SHOULD LIMIT the movies they'll show in theaters for people like you who couldn't even understand how a combined movie ratings and artistic expression work. That mentality will not move you anywhere. You're fine off being given only Barney movies in your lifetime because it's the only thing your brain (or your child's brain and ego) can handle.
