agree with you on alot of this, but:
> you won't find any Netflix films among them. But the cultural significance of films like La La Land, Star Wars, even the the Fast and the Furious franchise will outlive us all.
You also won't find the 'popular excitement' that is late-night tv guest appearances, supermarket checkout magazines, radio spots, entertainment news, social media 'influencers', and so on, reminding us of the 'significance' of the netflix produced items either..
when hollywood itself is determining what is culturally significant, and neflix is basically a 'rogue studio', this is hardly surprising..
also much less working class/rural/elderly people aren't plugged in to netflix, so you don't have the same level of 'total' market penetration either..

There were plenty of late night tv guest appearances, supermarket checkout magazine articles, radio spots, entertainment news, and quite frankly excessive social media influencers fawning over House of Cards, Orange is the New Black, or Stranger Things in their first two seasons. HoC especially is single-handedly responsible for Netflix's status today as a destination for shows (and the people who make them) when hollywood itself is determining what is culturally significant, and neflix is basically a 'rogue studio', this is hardly surprising.. Hollywood doesn't determine what is culturally significant, people do. Netflix produces culturally significant shows...but not movies.
