Current Events > It's hard for me to watch a movie in one sitting.

(+) Yeah! (+)

Unless it's at a theater (haven't been since before pandemic began) or with someone else. When by myself I get a nagging feeling that I need to play a video game instead and so watch a movie in 30 minute bursts when eating.

Anyone feel like this?

Yes am in this base. I started going back to theatres.. but sometimes I get bored and just leave. Then later another day I might buy a ticket and walk-in mid presentation.

Still not sure how James Bond - No Time to Die ended.

I cannot remember the last time I watched a movie end-to-end at home in one sitting. Too many distractions with food, a place to poop, cell phone, and video games.

i'm the opposite. i really feel like i dont get the same experience when i break a movie up into multiple viewings. whatever mood / mindset i felt when i stopped watching is lost when i restart it.

Yes you totally get a sub-par experience by breaking up a movie.

its best to watch in one sitting.

TC and I just sayin.. we cannot.

Got adderall?

Im exactly the same lol. When Im woth others, even if they're not paying full attention, I do. I like commenting and mutually pointing out stuff with people when watching movies. Then in theaters it just feels like proper etiquette to not do anything else.

Recently, I started taking a few shots and playing games once in awhile. But I usually end up losing attention to them. So, I put on a movie instead. First was Parasite and then another Bong Joon-Ho movie. I'm realizing the combination of drinking a lil and needing to read subtitles really keeps my attention. I don't like drinking enough to become addicted to it tho. So, I wouldn't do this if it risks addiction tho.

I think I've had ADD for the longest time and it's gotten worse over the years. I kinda lost my interest in movies. Books too. I don't have the patience for them anymore. Strangely I can watch hour long tv episodes back to back. Maybe it's the pacing differences. If I'm watching something I've already seen before, I'm also playing games while watching/listening to the show.
