Yeah, kids today certainly won't watch the same shit over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and
like a monkey with a miniature cymbal
Zoomer here. I had this with random YouTube videos. We had cult classics like asdf, and YouTubers were special.
Depends on the movie and the kid.
My first kid watched Coco about a million times. Probably most underrated Pixar film, imo. I still tear up during My Strong Corazon.
Can't tell you how much I've seen the Mario Movie.
Or the same episodes of Bluey.
So blockbusters still get tons of rewatch.
But...there's soooo much independent content out there. And kids aren't beholden to what's physically in the house.
Honestly it's amazing to me that modern kids have a cohesive culture with so much media variety.
I suppose as long as there are huge franchises, people will always grasp onto them in some way, and they will be kind of beacons for an array of subcultures. You'll still have kids that gravitate towards Minecraft...or Star Wars...or Sonic...or LotR, and then discover more niche stuff on a tangent from those.
