What should the next video be?

Hey, it's time for a new video poll! I have a whole bunch of ideas developing in my head right now, but I'm still not sure about many of them, so for now 2 of the options are old ones I never did.

Here are the options:

1. I would talk about The Emoji Movie as an example of what The Frankfurt School's Adorno and Horkheimer called the culture industry - when culture becomes commodified, standardized, mass-produced and used to keep people in passivity. Even though Adorno’s work on the culture industry is decades old, it still pretty well applies to The Emoji Movie. It’s a good example both because of the ubiquitous product placement and its plot structure. You won’t have to have seen The Emoji Movie to follow the video, of course. Wisecrack had already talked about The Emoji Movie using Horkheimer but they did it in terms of instrumental rationality, which is not the angle I’ll be approaching it from.

2. I've already made a video on Baudrillard through American Psycho, but probably the most popular cultural product associated with Baudrillard is The Matrix, which was influenced by him, the actors had to read Baudrillard, his book Simulacra and Simulations was shown in the movie, and quotes of his were used in the script as well. However, Baudrillard quite harshly distanced himself from the movie. In this video I would introduce aspects of Baudrillard's thought relevant to The Matrix and show how their treatment in the movie differs.

3. I'd talk about the philosophy of the 1st season of the TV show True Detective, which is philosophical pessimism, explicitly talked about by one of the show's main characters Rust Cohle. I'd talk about Thomas Ligotti's philosophical influence on Rust's character, but also about the philosophical influences of Ligotti himself, such as Zapffe and Cioran. I'd explain some philosophical themes mentioned in the show, such as the depreciation and denial of life, pessimism as a worldview and antinatalism. You wouldn't need to have watched the show to understand the video, but I imagine this would be of interest mostly to fans of the show. If this gets picked I'll also read the book "True Detection" by Gary Shipley for some additional philosophical analysis.

Thanks!
