Cultural Cannibalism

This video explores the concept of cultural cannibalism through a YouTube video essay by Solar Sands, who argues that modern cinema is experiencing a creative stagnation—symbolized by the Ouroboros, a snake eating its own tail. Solar Sands critiques contemporary films, particularly major franchises like Star Wars and Marvel, for relying on inconsistent storytelling, excessive reboots, and unoriginal adaptations. He also raises ethical concerns about "digital necromancy," the practice of using CGI to bring deceased actors back to life. Meanwhile, his roommate, Kino Corner, offers a more optimistic perspective, highlighting how successful remakes reimagine core stories rather than simply copying them. The video ultimately emphasizes that audiences have the power to break this cycle by supporting films that prioritize genuine creativity and vision over easy profit.
