Why waste time like this? Wouldn't it be better if cinemas would use vertical screens where a popular youtuber would describe the plot of the movie in like 30 seconds while talking at 2x speed?

Look, I am the type who watches lectures at 1.25x or 1.5x speed or something. But movies? It'd ruin the pacing. If you can't bring up the attention to watch a movie then maybe you just shouldn't

Why waste time watching an entire movie when you can just read the spoilers and know what's it about in less than 5 minutes?
replies:
Theaters and opera, too. I'm sure the actors will be willing to get their shifts cut by 20-50 % if we help them negotiate the same pay per performance.
replies:
If you look at old silent movies, they were played at different speeds in different cinemas and projections. There wasn't a standard way to play a movie, no "you NEED to play the movie at this specific speed or it will be ruined". I'm not saying the same should apply to modern movies, but I find it interesting.

I... what? I'm suddenly very happy for David Lynch, that he didn't live long enough to see this catch on...

Does this person not pay for their ticket? It costs 15$ for a ticket at our theater. Why would I want to waste that money by having it sped up? It's hard enough finding movies that are worth watching in the first place.

How much crap are you watching if you have to speed it up to get through it all?

For obvious reasons this will never happen. That being said, I do the same with most content. When YouTube I use from 1.25 as an absolute minimum to 2.0 a lot of the time. Average being 1.5. For movies/series I tend to opt for 1.25-1.33.
But this all fails when any music is involved - then I dial it down to 1.0.
I can kind of understand the people who speed up audiobooks and podcasts. But movies? That's nuts. |
I wonder if OP was alive during the VCR era. I bet they would have loved the FF button. AKA chipmunk mode.
