disclaimer: I haven't owned a tv for 15 years. (that used to be a badge i could wear, but now it's fine, you can just watch on a laptop). i'm a fan of good/interesting cinema, but i don't watch marvel or any of the rest of the garbage. i don't watch regularly released blockbusters (see above: i don't watch anything made after 2007 unless it's frequently recommended by my social network, and even then i often ignore it)

I'd encourage you to watch Star Wars: Next Generation (Season 1, Episode 1). I think there's a lot to learn about the social programming that was being delivered to people at that time, and what kinds of behaviors we can expect from our peers now, as a result.
