00:00Now, of course, there were major moments in pop culture in 2024, so let's take a look
00:05back, shall we? In terms of music, it was Charli XCX's Brat, which seems to have defined
00:10the summer and a whole new subculture for fans. Colin's Dictionary even defined Brat
00:15as its word of the year, summarising it as, quote, characterised by a confident, independent
00:20and hedonistic attitude. Furthermore, Rolling Stone even heralded Brat in being the greatest
00:25album of 2024. That's pretty big praise. Now, if we're talking movies, it was Pixar's
00:30Inside Out, which was the top-grossing film of 2024, with a worldwide gross of over $1
00:36billion. The other top-grossing films included Deadpool vs Wolverine, the beloved Despicable
00:41Me 4 and Blockbuster Dune Part 2. It's also worth giving the ever-popular Wicked an honourable
00:47mention as the big-screen adaptation of the iconic Broadway musical defied gravity in
00:53setting a historic milestone. The film became the highest-grossing movie based on a Broadway
00:58musical at the domestic box office.
