Agreed on the above
But I think this is a story that could have long legs with additional stories following Riley into adulthood. I think it would make perfect sense as the core audience- and their parents- would literally grow up with her.
IMO it's rare case of a franchise with potential sequels that are both a license to print money and has a natural, even desirable reason to make them.
