Media Repetition and Society's Denial of Mortality
The chapter explores the repetitive narratives in the media akin to Hollywood reboots, with examples such as the mistreatment of WNBA players and the underperformance of 'Furiosa.' Criticisms are raised about spin-offs without main characters, oversaturated sci-fi content, and declining interest in female action heroes. It also delves into societal attitudes towards death, discussing a man using AI to evade mortality and how society's obsession with youth reflects a denial of the inevitable aging process.
