    tv shows are slowly killing movies, lots of people around me say they kind of dont want to listen to movies anymore.. everyone wants tv shows.

    • Sad but trueApeRobot
    • hard to beat the good ole 2 hour format though. And this although good does feel like TV a lot of the time.fadein11
    • 2 hours is super short and we dont have time to really get into charaters' mind and psychology.Bennn
    • erm - the hundreds of classic films of the past may be evidence to the contrary. And let's face it this isn't about characterisation is it?fadein11
    • watching 80 hours of Breaking Bad is a lot of time to get into the characters mind and psychology, no 2 hours films can beat that. Its mathematics.Bennn
    • I'm not saying movies sucks. :) its just, different.Bennn
    • yeah of course its different but you said TV is killing cinema... it really isnt - it just can make more money in the long run which is what its all about.fadein11
    • cinema has been pronounced dead so many times and always comes back and its far from dead now anyway.fadein11
    • and tell them they should watch and listen to movies - it can be so dull just listening lol. (sorry)fadein11
    • yeah 'listen' is a bad french to english translation, my bad ;)Bennn
    • i know - sorry.fadein11
    • you better be sorry! ;PBennn
    • Front page material.ApeRobot
    • Yeah fuck movies!yuekit
    • Most TV becomes formulaic and predictable, breaking bad was guilty of that like a mofo. A lot of deus ex machina used to move the plot forward. In a movie theyzarkonite
    • would have tightened the plot to keep it focused and moving forward.zarkonite
    • IE: Walt would go into killer mode, snap out of it become the uncertain persona and create a deadly problem and it would get solved with his smart persona.zarkonite
