    Good investigation, even if it was “lazy” it was still more effort than I put in. I suppose it makes sense they have a niche, cheap movies with a generic “feel good” sort of vibe are probably popular with a particular sort of person who hates being challenged. Plus they are probably a very non-controversial choice for a movie to watch during the holidays, which is why they have so many christmas movies I guess.

      Wonder if they’ll increase as material conditions deteriorate (for all but the rich) and people who don’t take drugs look for the barest hint of dopamine.
