Oh okay I get what you mean now, definitely with you on the really badly over-used jokes. Nobody and This Is The End are great movies!

I think that it’s a few factors. Some movies that were longer started to be accepted, like the summer blockbusters creeping longer and longer and people not complaining much about the length. Then streaming picking up more and more, and with habits of binging it became apparent people were happy to sit for longer and longer times watching content (shows, documentaries, movies) and then with COVID and people looking for things to occupy their time longer content was welcomed more.
Though with your list of things you don’t like in films I’m not sure you really like films at all? Talking scenes are usually important for dialogue exposition, reflecting the characters mindsets etc, but why do you hate fight scenes and comedy scenes? What kind of movies do you like?
Do.you have the article without the subscription/ paywall?
Wow that’s insane, I thought only rodents had teeth that constantly grew like that?
That’s some reassurance that they’re doing this the right way! I really want this to be good!
Last time I went to the cinema it was a small screen, and had a bunch of teens just taking the piss. It’s to be expected at this point, but it really compromises the experience of going to the cinema. They ended up getting shouted at and they eventually behaved, but for a movie with a fairly quiet first few scenes they wouldn’t stop with shitty one-liners, saying how they’d fuck the lead actress, and throwing their food at the screen.
This is what I pay to go to the cinema for? When I saw Spectre there were a group of teens taking photos with the flash on, and laughing constantly. Entitlement and selfishness are what ruin the cinema experience for most people. Then things like the hygiene of others etc - being in a hot cinema with someone who hasn’t bathed recently and is just stinking of a few days of BO is really off-putting lol.
