About Entertaiment
Entertainment often hits on the themes that the human mind was shaped to deeply react to, like backstabbing and murder. It also stimulates the brain to release seratonin, dopamine and other feel good chemicals. This could explain why many familiar forms of entertainment have the ability to cross over various media and demonstrate a seemingly unlimited potential for creative remix.
