Me: I want to watch this movie, but I don’t think I commit 90 minutes of attention to it.
Also me: Binge watches six, hour-long episodes instead.
Sometimes. Though it’s almost never about the length of time, just the content.
Me: “I don’t wanna watch horror right now and that’s all that’s good on demand right now…”
Also me: binges hours of ghost stories and SCP stuff on YouTube
Ugh this has ruined so many date nights. Esp when my mind just decides not moving must mean we should ne sleeping.
/Binge-watches ten 20-minute long YouTube documentaries about special interests instead
I’ve always had issues losing the plot in fast paced action movies (think James Bond or Mission Impossible). I was diagnosed last year and it finally made sense as to why. Same as reading the same page 5 times, except I can’t do that in a movie theatre.
100%, especially if I’m watching a show I’ve seen before. Currently watching Parks and Rec for the… 10th time?
There’s something about having an out at any time with the shorter episodes. I know that I’m easily distracted but won’t miss something, because I’ve seen it before. Watching a movie takes a lot more effort because I want to give the movie the attention it deserves, and there aren’t clear intermissions.
