Cinema's Homework Problem

This video explores a satirical critique inspired by an excerpt from the creator, Echo Chamberlain. Through humorous, fictionalized scenarios featuring everyday people—an electrician, a homemaker, a construction worker, and a production assistant—it highlights a growing frustration with modern blockbuster cinema. Instead of offering simple escapism, today’s franchises—especially the MCU and series like Mission: Impossible—often demand that viewers arrive armed with extensive background knowledge from dozens of interconnected films and streaming shows. By listing the overwhelming “required reading” needed to understand movies like Captain America, The Marvels, and Thunderbolts, the video argues that keeping up with these universes has started to feel more like homework than entertainment. The narrative takes an unexpected turn with a brief meta moment involving the creator themselves, adding an extra layer of comedic absurdity.
