I fell asleep during “A new hope” 3 times, and just stopped once out of boredom before I was finally able to make it through the whole movie. 100% feel you here. I respect it for what it is, and enjoy a lot of the stuff that has come after it, but man do I feel the original was just LIMP.
FWIW I’m using the downvote button as a “You didn’t explain”, “That’s a band not a movie”, “That’s a show not a movie”, “That’s a genre of animation, not a movie” button ;p I’m definitely clicking it far more often that I typically do =p
It’s wild how many people can write but not read.
I use a hardware password manager that connects over USB or bluetooth for most things. The few things that I use often I have a system for, and that system is popular culture.
Love “The Prisoner of Azkaban”? Initialize it, and add the publish date some where: HP&TPoA|1999
Starship troopers fan? Initialize a memorable quote. “The enemy can not push a button… if you disable his hand. Medic!”: Tecnpab…iydhh.M! Need numbers? Find a quote with numbers, or add the release year, or the number of times you watched it that one weekend where you and a friend watched it 32 times.
Like TV shows more? How about the fourth episode of family guy: S1-MindOverMuder-E4.
Metal Fan? I do love track three off of Metallica’s 1983 album: #3|Motorbreath-1983
Etc.
No, I would not.
I don’t watch a TON of these things, but I do enjoy them from time to time. The two bits I enjoy the most are vicarious rediscovery of something I enjoy, and getting a very different point of view on the same thing.
Generally when I watch these it’s stuff like “Classically trained musician listens to Megadeth for the first time”. I get reminded of some bits that I’ve grown accustomed to, and sometimes get a whole new perspective on something I’ve been enjoying for years.
I will say, I don’t get “Youtuber reacts to other youtubers reaction to some twitch streamer breakdancing” or “Gymrat listens to ABBA for the first time”.
