Matt Damon Says Netflix Wants Movies to Restate the ‘Plot Three or Four Times in the Dialogue’ Because Viewers are on ‘Their Phones While They’re Watching’
-
Does that include Lemmy?
You tell me:
-are you getting ads/shorts/brainrot shoved in face every single second?
-is the public on lemmy tolerant of sexoffenders? Nazis?
-ads? (Yes, I initially misspelled it as “adds” this guy right here)
-do you have superfluous bs following you around?
I think not.
-
It's not just me, right? Modern movies and shows have less things happen in same duration of time.
Modern shows are lazy, they are like 6, 10 episodes tops. The simpsons in the 90s before they sucked did almost 30. They would take summer off, then breaks on xmas and spring but a show a week otherwise.
-
You could absolutely do it in a funny way like Kronk (Emperors New Groove) or Luis (Ant-Man).
-
Now I'm curious, am I checking my phone after they've repeated the same thing 3 or 4 times and now I'm bored / annoyed?
-
I like when Matt Damon restates his name three or four times in the dialogue

The entirety of the show is like that. It's not like a deep thinky clever show, it's a series of 80's horror movie references tossed in a blender.
Yes and no. This season has been pretty weak in the writing department, so some of these ideas that worked before were overused/used poorly this season. And for an 80s-throwback series, it ends rather depressingly, no matter how you spin it. But it's par for the course these days for the final season/finale to shit the bed, I guess.

Dude.... That was annual, too. These modern day 8-episode shows will have YEARS between seasons. Like, motherfucker, half your scenes are green screen in a big sound studio -- what the fuck is taking you so long?!

Talk about the wrong response!
If they want people to not look away or do something else while the movie is playing you gotta keep it interesting.
Ya know, like perhaps making movies that aren't just rehashes of the same old stories.
Make movies and shows that keep people on their toes!
Making a crime drama? Throw in some traveler from the future or a demon or both! Give the judge two heads because of a "merging accident" or something!
Putting together a horror movie? Throw in some romance among the monsters! Have them feed each other eyeballs or something!
Making an anime? Try something totally radical! Like a male protagonist with non-dark hair that has a personality, or make a couple—in love—who get stuck somewhere together, alone have actual sex (like normal teens would) or something!
Making a K-drama? Add a black guy and make him one of the main characters... Haha, just kidding! That would be too radical! That'd be just as extreme as making an anime that covers the time period a few years after "the hero" formed his harem!
Wow... I dont want to see any of those potential movies you just pitched.

I wouldn't have my phone out to begin with Netflix if you didn't start adding ads.
You pay for ads? There's like a Plex server every 5 houses in my neighborhood, and we are all poor as shit. Maybe that's it though, find you some poor people and stop paying for Netflix
-
Make movies that are engaging enough to keep people from checking their feeds while they wait for something to happen.
My wife said that the Wire was hard to follow and boring, but she also checked her phone every 5 minutes and was carrying on a conversation there with her friends. She also impulsively pulled out facebook and scrolled a bit. I pointed all this out but Its still the shows fault somehow.

Regarding adds: I guess if you fight one lemmy user, others will spawn and come to help. So I would say yes, there are adds

Depressingly? It was fully happily ever after. And it just did the same thing every other season did, largely disregard previous seasons to introduce a new big bad for the season leading up to a big monster fight. It was incredibly par for the course, 70 percent style with 30 percent substance. It's not high cinema but it's entertaining tv.
-
If you watch shitty movies, yes. There are still plenty of good movies being made.
-
Why? What the fuck do they care as long as people watch it?
Make good stuff, and people will come.
Not really, no. There have been plenty of tv shows for example that have been cancelled due to low audience numbers, despite being excellent. For example, In The Flesh, Mindhunter and Pushing Daisies.
-
No they are not. I cannot watch them unless i speed them up past what Netflix allows me. They are so slow and information sparse that i cannot watch them.
You need to relax my dude

So people having discourse equals advertising?
-
Do the people who have their phones out in films nowadays watch those old movies without looking at their phones, hmm?
Your snark makes you sound like an arsehole.
My snark is because it was an assinine statement that was said rudely. I don't know why you're mad at me and not the rude person with the wrong opinion.

They have to wait for Ai tokens to replenish.

Nah, they're making a joke from the misspelling.
add: To perform addition. Or a mob joining an ongoing fight in a game.
ad: An advertisement.
