I do find it amusing whenever I see how some people watch movies/tv. Barely even looking at the screen that has terrible audio quality while they consume brainrot. It’s why Netflix has characters say what they’re doing/thinking and reiterating plot points because they know most people can’t/won’t focus on the media alone.
my entire family is like this. everyone is dual-screened almost all the time.
and they consume mass-market netflix slop films and love them. they tend to hate anything more sophisticated or that requires an attention span as ‘boring’ or ‘weird’. even popular HBO sitcoms/dramas are ‘too much’ for them.
that said they still go to the movie theater and do engage there without their phones/tablets. but they only go for big budget action films.
You can like/dislike whatever you want.

I’m unsure if we’re heading into idiocracy, or we’re just getting old.
perhaps both?
people are objectively stupider than they were a decade ago.
