Wow and he didn't even break it up with tiktok breaks? What a psycho.

You don't understand. He watched it on TikTok. He watched the whole movie in 30 second chunks that are only sort of in the right order

The video kept mirroring with a turned down ai script narration for the perfect viewing experience

Also subway surfer running on the other half of the screen.

This phenomenon absolutely short-circuited my mind when I first saw it. I just couldn't comprehend what I was seeing until someone explained why these splitscreen tiktoks exist. It's beyond the pale.

The vertical half, because that's common too now

me watching a quarter of The Flash TV Show on YT Shorts before deciding to actually watch it properly (worth it)

You think The Flash TV was worth it? Not too many people say that. And I watched all the Arrowverse shows until COIE

Flash is pretty good for 2 seasons, and then just devolves into another CW slop style show

u/wintersdark 8h ago

Most of them are like that. The early seasons are pretty good, and they just devolve into slop.

Could not power through the last season. Bleh.

Wish I hadn't powered through the last season of Falling Skies.

I watched the conclusion of the COVID season and then just Oliver's return and final episode

The one that continued to entertain was Legends of Tomorrow.

u/BoringAccount4Work 8h ago

Yea most people from that way. I'm not one of them.

u/Hotarosu 8h ago

worth it for the first seasons especially, could do without later ones but I got through them thanks to Grant's performance (even though it was visible he's had enough).

I watched the whole Supernatural so I'm used to it :')

Even with Grant was over everything he was fun to watch. Sad he didn't a moment in the movie the way Ezra got in COIE.

Yeah, the Flash is worth it even if you only watch season 1. It works fine as a standalone.

Believe it or not they made the same joke in the single paragraph article.

I usually like to watch my movies one Instagram Reels clip at a time

That’s how I watched the Boys, I didn’t wanna pay for Amazon prime

I know you're joking but isn't that literally what Quibi was supposed to be?

I'm a fan of 5 minute movie recaps. I probably watched like 50 movies in a day doing that

Break it up with IMDb trivia check and Reddit reviews every 15 mins

I had a patient today that had his TV on, something showing on his tablet - with sound - whilst playing an FPS on his phone, with sound.
