This is no reflection on Wonka specifically, but...
FFS: Invest. In. New. Stories.
The last 30 years have seen remake after remake after reboot after prequel after spin-off.
So much of mainstream culture has become creatively timorous yet rapacious in its goal to milk intellectual properties dry.
Modern mainstream culture sometimes feels like a karaoke bar. Actually, an ouroboros in a karaoke bar. A never-ending cycle of consuming and re-consuming itself.

New in the Vault: Control, an irreverent interpretation of Walter KΓ€ch's sans serif lettering examples with no "correct" version: adjust weight, contrast, apertures, and tracking to your liking, and choose between an oblique and a cursive.

Control was drawn by Christian Schwartz and Miguel Reyes and first used by Interview magazine (who commissioned the Cursive and the TNT tracking).

"Let's Stop Calling It 'Content''

I first starting noticing the word "content" in the late 90s

Companies looking to put writing, animation, video or art on their web sites would call it "content"

It flattened innumerable forms of culture into a sort of *goo*, extruded from a tube

25 years on, the term "content" has metastasized, eating whole the way many people talk about -- *think* about -- culture.

Let's stop now
