Gen X, traumatized by the passing of the analog world in which they came of age, is hopelessly addicted to recycling the comforting bedtime stories of their youth (J. J.

But this summer’s dismal box-office receipts offer a glimmer of renewed hope that audiences are finally hungering for new stories, and new heroes, that speak to the ethos and preoccupations of our new millennium.
This words are so true. I also don’t think people want originality anymore. It seems everyone wants to read the same type of stories.
