It started with a clip recounting Caroline Polachek’s So Hot You’re Hurting My Feelings. A Twitter user had shared it online, captioning it with, “It was a cultural reset… it was a cultural reset.” Since then, internet users have been flooding the platform with their own versions of what “cultural reset” means to them.
The term refers to moments that were significant to the evolution of pop culture, ultimately changing history.
One user pointed out the baseball scene in Twilight as a “cultural reset”moment, while another vouches for the scene in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban where Hermione Granger (played by Emma Watson) throws a punch at Draco Malfoy (Tom Felton).
This year itself, people have crowned “cultural reset” moments to Harley Quinn: Birds of Prey and Robert Pattinson in his Batsuit for the upcoming Matt Reeves-directed The Batman.
