“Something something culture impact” please save us

u/lsaz 2d ago

If you think about it, very few successful movies have had some sort of cultural impact in the last few years. I remember "Parasite" being a HUGE thing when it came out, but culturally, there's no footprint... no jokes, one-liners, scenes that are copied by other movies, references, or anything like that. It's kinda weird. And is the same with all Oscar-winning movies of the last 10 years.

I think Oppenheimer is the huge exception. But yeah. Most movies don't make a huge impact. And that's OK!

The only cultural impact it had were the Barbenheimer memes. After that, we never heard from the movie again.

Sorry, I don’t think I agree with that at all. I see it referenced all the time. Maybe that’s just me
