2018 has delivered several surprises as far as American movies are concerned. With numerous companies being focused on the promotion of the theme of communication, reconciliation, unity, and equality. However, the specified phenomenon can hardly be surprising. Since the audience has grown out of most traditional myths, a new interpretation thereof with new heroes and adventures was required. Superhero movies and the overall theme of good versus evil fit the specified target completely, thus representing an old theme with a new outlook on it. While the premise remains the same, i.e., heroes venture on a journey to experience personal growth while performing a noble mission, the overall environment and the leading characters have undergone a significant redress. Similarly, the presence of R-rated movies in the recent list of Hollywood awards, such as “Deadpool” and, more recently, “The Shape of Water,” indicates that the same stories of heroes redeemed and people finding humanity in what might seem as a monstrosity at first, remain primary themes in the Hollywood movies. On the one hand, it would be comparatively easy to scorn the Hollywood cinema for recycling the same themes until they wear out their significance entirely. Indeed, as stressed above, the range of ideas used by Hollywood writers when creating a scenario for a movie has not been expanded significantly in the 2010s. Nonetheless, even with the approach that some audiences may deem primitive, the American movies not only remain popular but also manage to appeal to both the American demographic and the representatives of other states and cultures (Yakaboski & Donahoo, 2017). Therefore, the popularity of American cinema and, particularly, the Hollywood cinema, may be defined by the general appeal of the broad themes that they choose for their movies. “The Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol. 2″ is one of the most graphic examples of the specified phenomenon. What might seem like a relatively simplistic premise was turned into a movie that rendered the heartstrings of millions of people both in and outside the United States. The identified course of events can be explained by the fact that the movie addressed one of the global themes that can be found in any culture, i.e., the theme of family, relationships within it, and the importance of finding balance in managing family interactions (Carrier, 2015). Indeed, a closer look at the movie will reveal that what was concealed under the guise of a space saga was, in fact, an in-depth analysis of abusive family relationships, the coping mechanisms that people develop in the said environment, and how they reconcile with their bitterness and negative emotions. Therefore, the themes of family and individuality conflate in modern American cinema, thus leading to the birth of an entirely new concept. The idea of promoting personal growth through the improvement of relationships with others drives modern Hollywood movies, defining their plot and allowing for well-developed, fleshed-out characters. The identified theme is parallel to the concept of ostracism that can be witnessed in contemporary society. Particularly, the issue of prejudice against the ideas of more open-minded people that are w
