watched a youtube about why streaming videos suck so much, really interesting. basically the entire construction of the movie is based around super fine-grained streaming metrics. and those metrics say "make ocean's eleven, over and over and over again, and make sure something happens every 30 seconds or people will close the tab"

@sun@shitposter.world This tracks- i can't remember if it was you or I read it on my local forum. But I think it was a in relation to the last clooney movie, about how the audience attention span was basically nil, and you had to more or less explain wtf was happening in the movie every 30 minutes to keep retention.
@miscbrains @sun I saw either Brad Pitt or Matt Damon saying that streaming is killing film for this reason, they're stuck making movies to be background noise for while people doomscroll on their phone. It kills any attempt at storytelling.
