As someone in a creative field with many friends who also are, it’s definitely a challenging world. There is plenty of creativity out there and amazing ideas, but the people who want to make things happen just aren’t being given the time, resources, and support to reach their potential.
I am one of those people you mention in that last sentence. I feel that most of the people in the creative field themselves are part of the problem. I haven't been able to get work because you folks are too insecure. You haven't been honest about the power games you all play in the workplace. You have still yet to get honest with yourselves about workplace competition.
I think you hit the nail on the head with this one, basically big corporations need quick and safe return on investment and mostly don't accept anything that's more "risky"or original. I'll just say this... checking the list of the albums that came out in 1991 compared to today makes me extremely sad...I was born in 1982.
I can admit, I constantly relish in the past, I feel like there’s nothing to look forward to in the future. I was born in 1998 and I had to grow up pretty fast due to my mother passing away in my teenage years. now that I’m 26 years old, I feel like my best days are behind me. how old are you and can you relate?
Charlie XCX and Roan Chapell are amazing, original, and sorry, Clint Eastwood are too slow, and ye only like them cos ye are too unoriginal to try out something new: have you heard of Squid Games? Or have you never watched a foreign film?
Even Broadway is like this. Ninety percent of shows on the boards now are revivals, jukebox musicals (shows shaped around the music of one performer or pop songwriter) or musicals based on ‘80s and ‘90s movies. Occasionally something fresh like Hadestown breaks through, but it’s the exception rather than the rule. For the most part, they play it safe, safe, safe.
With fashion it totally makes sense because fashion has always worked in cycles. But everything else like all the reboots I've often wondered if people just wanna kinda time travel back to a time when life was easier. There's a collective feeling of despair among the US and Canada for various reasons. I think people just wanna escape back to a time that felt less desperate
Fashion has always worked in cycles, but shapes and silhouettes had their own cycle, colors and patterns had a separate cycle with different timing, fabrics and textures had their own cycle. It used to be about using the past as inspiration to create something new. Now it's just lifting entire garments from the past and remaking them.
New creative things exist, but they just aren't funded and advertised as much. I would love to see a scientific analysis on how algorithms have shaped culture. Maybe it will take more time to really see it fully.
I agree with you! The other day I looked up art shadows and paint. There were... maybe one or three artists who created art through ink, shadow and lighting to make a piece of art come to life. There are creatives out there but again -- algorithm -- squashes all the original ideas out and pushes everything trendy up. We simply have to look up these artists ourselves and support their work.
I think one of the contributing factors is also the cutting back of arts programs & classes in many schools. This has been happening for the past couple of decades sadly, and the timeline shows it.
This is false. A movie like 1994 ‘The Mask’ took many elements and made an original piece. Nothing was really new, but the combination of ideas WAS new. What we’re seeing now is carbon-copies of previous movies/shows/ video games?! 🙄 being pasted onto CGI and that’s our media.
Don't forget much has been rectified to change characters/genders/race/culture in an attempt to placate too many at once - with few appreciating those efforts - and rightly so.
Yea. The past people thought we would be all futuristic looking but we’re just caught up in rehashing the past. I think the reason why it’s hard to come up with new ideas has to do with how we’re processing information now. Social media is so addictive and such a powerful dopamine hit I truly think it’s changed the way our brains reward us. Nostalgia is an easy way to remember the past and get that same happy feeling from remembering something comforting. This even happens with kids who are nostalgic for a time they didn’t experience. Why bother to innovate when you can just rely on the past to give you that high and sense of comfort.
As an autistic person, the 80's and 90's are a special interest of mine (and history in general). Nostalgia is a rather complicated topic. I think there are several reasons why we were stuck in this nostalgia: 1.) forms of entertainment were more difficult to make and required whole modes of technology to be used and marketed. That, to an end, would be used to create other works of art. So, it was a labor of love that most people can respect. 2.) People had to put in work to enjoy the things they like (a la having to look up a number in a phone book.) 3.) The community. People actually had to interact with people (oftentimes with complete strangers) when it came to going to the movies or a concert. They had a common interest in whatever they were into. 4.) It was a simple time where we could just indulge ourselves and we just had more of it back then so we didn't pay it much though, and lastly (5), the US and the Western World won the Cold War and Capitalism won, a lot of complacency came out of that. Ironically, the nostalgia trap is one of the signs of late-stage capitalism. Corporate greed now trying to stay afloat my marketing on the past experiences of our social lives.😅
Ita that the tv & movie industry is full of reruns & reboots today. It's like the entertainment industry has lost much of it's creativity. As for fashion, many fashion trends are cyclical and often _in reaction_ to the era that preceded it. Personally, I love vintage fashion, especially leather goods (especially shoes & purses) that come from previous eras. Purses & shoes were better made than today's leather goods.
@@Laurajaneatelier To be fair, Hollywood was always full of remakes of sequels, it’s just that there were much smaller reference pools than today and we’re now more aware of that fact now. Then it had to hop from somewhat sugarcoated westerns to generic jungle movies to space fantasy movies within 4 decades.
Yes, Western world and society is way too stuck in the past to the point of stagnation. I think the most orignality and creativity you'll find these days is on social media.
"This has worked before and we know it will make us money." vs, "Let's take a risk on a new idea and put our faith in creative people." We know which one is winning. Corporate greed rules all.
You referred to Pulp Fiction... remember: that was a pastiche of nostalgic themes and remade sequences from movies of the past. Pulp Fiction is interesting more as indicator of things to come, because it was so successful in its Sean-Nos-Nua style.
Many people don't realise it, that profit will always kill creativity and the human spirit. It's cheaper to just re-animate (literally) movies that have already been written.
How is it that Capitalism created the industries and all the original content in the first place? What are some examples of thriving Socialist pop cultures?
But Laura you based your channel on nostalgia from the beginning, and that's why I liked it, and we are comforted by reliving moments past, as they often remind us of happy moments in time, from music to movies to merchandise. ❤
Those crop tops were the same in the 70s. My Dad used to say, "There's nothing new in this world." He was correct. I never watch remakes, reboots, or anything like that. They are trash. Watch the original.
I’m certain you watch remakes because most of the originals were from the early decades of film. I really don’t think that when watching Pride and Prejudice you’ll be telling people to watch the 1940s version except maybe a a funny experience. Or the first vampire move, or the first Sherlock Holmes. You’ve got mail is a remake. Basically every fairy tale is a remake. Every early film mentioned in this video was an adaptation (why something like Metropolis wasn’t mentioned is beyond me). Remakes have been happening since the very first films started coming out as we got better tech mostly because we like those stories.
@pifci I mostly like the flip/keyboard phones of the 2000s, but I don't understand how people can think the 2010s are nostalgic?? Had people come and defend that they think are 2010s are nostalgic, even blocked someone over this
There's only so many plots you can make movies about. Only so many "new styles" of fashion. Yes the past could be better. Like in Midnight in Paris it was referred to as "Golden age thinking" where you think the past era's were better.
Ich sah Sonic 3 im Kino gesehen und es sich angefüllt wie etwas was ich noch nie gesehen habe. Wenn du so ein Gefühl hast, dann führst du ein sehr träges und langweiliges Leben.
I readily accepted the introduction of digital technology into my life back in the early 80's thanks to the NAVY and all the other industries pushing it forward. There's still much today which interests me, yet the majority is trying so hard to use nostalgia to widen the customer base I find it pandering, weak and uninteresting. If it's made for those unlike me whom have never experienced 'it' before - I understand completely. Still - I feel they are also cheated from knowing the original concept which in many cases is superior.
You forgot how JFK and Jackie Kennedy started off the pop culture in the 60s. After JFK assassination movies, tv shows, fashion, style, toys, and music started to change in a big way.
Recently this struck me bc I’m a zillennial I do partake in trends of the millennial generation, but Y2K is popular? Literally that just happened? So how did we just run through all the trends and finally go through 90s trends then Y2K trends. I think it has to do with a generation let’s say when they’re teens establishing trends and things that will be nostalgic to them and then enough time passes and they’re able to capitalize once again on that generation at a different point in their life by targeting them through nostalgia.
My armchair theory is that Rock, and Rap, and Pepperoni Pizza, and Star Wars, and Superheroes, and Nikes (feel free to replace those items with any of your choosing) are all things that will henceforth be known as the standard features of "Western Popular Culture". My notion is that we just happened to live through a time when this culture both formed, and then immediately did monumental amounts of growth and innovation. In 50-100 years I still think they'll still play "YMCA" and "Baby Got Back" at events, and enjoy Fajitas and Margaritas (if there is any justice), and Star Wars and Simpsons will still be well-known things (maybe moreso in the same way that Shakespeare is to us now). I think we (I?) were very lucky to live through this time of absolutely insane amounts of transformation, but that it was a fluke. I don't think the next few decades will have anything like the same amount of creative/cultural change that we have witnessed in our lifetimes (though technology is a very different story).
As far as how Technology helped drive us to this point, I think "Pandora was let out of her Box" when Digital arrived, because Digital liberated Form from Information (note how similar a principle this is to Postmodernism ideas). It's really easy to make slightly-altered copies of things, and so that's mostly what we see.
globalization and social media amplification is definitely good points. i think too we only see trends in hindsight to a large extent. i think there is a lot of creativity going on but it is all buried and will take time for people to appreciate the creative works. there is already a rejection of social media and people are founding communities outside of this but the problem is how do you find them?
Nostalgia is a big thing why do you think most transformers Toys Hasbro makes are all g1 related why do you think when people think of power rangers they think of the original series " Mighty Morphin Power Rangers" the series that started it all , well Japanese started the brand as Sentai In 1973 but in America anything power rangers people circle back to mighty morphin power rangers
Creativity isn’t dead. It’s still there. It’s just capitalism has more monopolies than before. Therefore creativity has to be found underground (as always.) while the bourgeoisie is running in circles. Nothing new though
@Laura Jane Ateiler beautiful name Bc it's mine. Lol. I am 48 and so thankful I am a Generation Xer. I'm a trained opera singer, cordon Bleu certified and trained, and now a Behavioral Therapist who works with autistic kids and gets paid crap. Lol. I also was a rocker chick who lived for her hair bands. And played around Hollywood through out my life since I live half hour away from Hollyweird. Your channel actually makes me remember and reflect. Thank you. Honestly I will always keep my cat eye make up with my 70s skin care routine (from my older sister and mom) . And 90s techique. Love you Laura!!
When wealth is consolidated art has less people to turn to for investment. A failure can get you soft blacklisted from that small funding circle. So everything is safe. The only “strange” items are made for the rich because a small potion of them (the new rich) like to flaunt. So if you want your art back Eat the rich and demand a more equitable sharing of wealth.
I miss this. Everything was innovative. I experienced the 0s and 90s as a kid. And nothing felt samey like it does now. Especially the popular fashion and films.
Political correctness. Everyone’s too scared now of being cancelled to do anything new, startling, shocking. Even if your intent wasn’t to offend, someone will find a way to be offended. Offending people was a part of creativity, ie Andy Warhol etc.
My experience seems to be the polar opposite. Everything feels new because of how I missed out on a lot during my childhood. It wasn't because of awful circumstances but simply because none of it ever occurred to me.
Wicked isn't a rerun the author was inspired by the book of the Wizard of Oz and made a complex backstory based on the witches. Elphaba isn't even evil like she is in yhe wizard of oz. I agree with what the video sa id but wicked isn't just some prequel. The witches are complex while in yhe wizard of oz movie glinda is a mary sue and Elphaba is evil

We live in the age of postmodernism. There is nothing original in postmodernism, only remixes.
its also the celebration of ugliness

What we’re seeing now is carbon-copies of previous movies/shows/ video games?! 🙄 being pasted onto CGI and that’s our media.
creativity didn't die down, it just went underground because it was tired of dealing with everyone's bs
It’s because society has been dumbed down, and it has ruined creativity and imagination to come up with new stories
Don't forget much has been rectified to change characters/genders/race/culture in an attempt to placate too many at once - with few appreciating those efforts - and rightly so.
How are we dumbed down? Cos more people have access to education you wanna invalidate this generation's creative artists?
Education and creativity are 2 very different things@@DavidRooney-h8z
The world after 9/11 has been a major disappointment.

I know i am trapped because the old stuff is good stuff

I agree with what the video sa id but wicked isn't just some prequel. The witches are complex while in yhe wizard of oz movie glinda is a mary sue and Elphaba is evil
