I feel this whole question stems from media industry more and more utilizing their back-catalogs instead of just pushing new novel works. Streaming services are major part in enabling/exacerbating the issue; 50 year old movies are happily intermingling with latest and greatest, and the cultural context is not always super clear.
- acdha 4y agoI think this is the entire problem: some people are talking like there’s an angry censorship mob going around demanding changes but in all of cases which have come up recently it seems to be more along the lines of large risk-averse companies trying to market to younger people or, at least in the Dahl books, not have something blow up their Netflix adaptation. It seems like the best angle for this would be copyright reform and simply moving on to fresh IP so people aren’t worried about how young people will feel their grandparents’ world.
