Rich individuals show a tendency to miss the underlying critiques present in multimedia franchises that explore their influence. MrBeast, known for creating viral competitions, plans to recreate The Hunger Games, a series that comments on the societal disparities caused by wealth. His version would replace lethal elements with non-lethal alternatives, such as laser tag, placing participants on an island in a competition for a cash prize. MrBeast believes his recreations resonate with audiences who enjoy engaging with fictional worlds brought to life.
"I think that would absolutely crush because yes, we recreated, but we also rebuilt Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory. I have a chocolate company, and we gave golden tickets and brought people out, and people loved it."
"The idea would obviously not pit people against one another in a fight to the death, but instead, have potentially 26 random people on an island using laser tag guns to eliminate each other, with the last person standing winning a million dollars."
