A term analogous to "junk food," describing media designed to capture and hold attention through high-stimulus, low-value elements. Just as junk food is engineered for immediate sensory pleasure but lacks nutritional value, junk content provides instant gratification and emotional engagement but is deficient in depth, educational value, or long-term significance. Over time, consistent consumption of junk content can have detrimental effects on cognitive and emotional well-being, much like the negative health outcomes associated with a diet high in junk food.

Another film I think that has resonated in real life, is the Barbie Movie. The Barbie movie really got people's attention. People were advertising and hyping up the film. I remember walking into stores and they had new sections of Barbies on display. I think kids who were fans, went out and bought Barbie dolls. And the people who grew up with Barbie got to enjoy the movie, it appealed to them as well. I think this is similar to Best in Show. Dog lovers embraced it, and new audiences were drawn to dogs, and dog shows. People were definitely more inclined to go and buy a dog after seeing this movie. I think pop culture has to be able to attract multiple audiences in order for it to be successful. I think that is what is done very well with both of these topics, and movies.
