"The current obsession with nostalgia and remake culture is easy to understand when you realize that it's a symptom of a culture that isn't allowed to imagine a future."

I think that lately people are taking refuge in things that made them happy in the past because not being able to see a clear future in their lives. Returning again and again to the things that made them happy in their day. And companies are only taking advantage of that. I'm not saying new thing don't exist, I'm saying people are not willing to search them because they only want to escape to the past.
Idk, I see more people that they live is something like pokemon that actually they family, career or they own projects or dreams.
People have always done that.
