ELI5: Why can't you remember the things you studied for a school test, but you can't get a spoiler from a movie/TV show/game out of your head?

Because you remember things that you're interested in and forget things that you're not.  

No matter what you might tell yourself - at best, you don't actually care about anything that you're studying.  At worst you view it as a burden.

If you're actually passionate about what you're trying to learn it isn't difficult to learn it, but there's no way to fake or trick yourself into having a passion for something - at least not internally.
