      Interesting, thoughtful movies are certainly still being made (see Evil Does Not Exist, Kinds of Kindness, I Like Movies, etc).

      We always had cinematic junk food. This is just extra on-the-nose.

      This makes me wonder if Seinfeld is genuinely trying to see how wide-openly cynical he can be about filmmaking and audiences. It’s like learning that a million people can be entertained having keys jingled at them. It’s equal parts depressing and enticing to try it and see if it actually works.

        Isn’t this pretty much TikTok? (Disclaimer: I have never downloaded TikTok)
