I don't enjoy watching movies anymore
Why not user?
move on to something else for awhile. moderation
At least you can narrow it down to only one thing.
I don't fucking like anything anymore.
when i was a kid I saw all the Back to the Future movies and loved them all, especially number 3. Couldn't tell you why I liked 3 the most; kids don't tend to use terms like "tone", "dialogue", "characterisation", blah blah blah. I just liked it because it was the one I liked.
Every few years for 20 years I would do a rewatch of BTTF, and it was always a great feeling knowing my favourite was still to come. Everyone knows most trilogies/franchises have their best movie at the start (flops don't tend to get sequels), and it sucks doing a rewatch of other trilogies and realising after the first one you don't really care enough to finish the series. So BTTF was my favourite because number 3 was my favourite, but I liked 1 & 2 still, and I could watch them knowing my favourite was still to come.
Then one day I found out on a Zig Forums thread that apparently everyone else thought BTTF 3 was the shittiest in the franchise. I thought it must just be a contrarian thread, but a check on IMDB and RT confirmed the horrible truth: BTTF 1 is a classic, BTTF is a worthy sequel, not as good, BTTF 3 was when they were milking it and thank god they wrapped up the series there.
I decided I don't care what Zig Forums or anyone else thought because I liked number 3 the best.
Now whenever I do a rewatch I can't help but notice that 3 sucks, 2 is watchable at best, and only 1 is actually good. I preferred being deluded.
Fuck you Zig Forums, you ruined my favourite trilogy.
nice blog post

Got the same problem, 10 years of NEETdome and watching everything that exist can do this to you, i dont enjoy gaming, movies and show anymore, i have constant "ive seen this already" feeling. I think its called dopamine oversaturation or something.
At least there are still memes and shitposts.
i get really bad headaches and find it hard to focus
true, i enjoy it once in a while. i need to drink to watch a movie though otherwise my headache's too bad.
that sucks user. i still enjoy a lot of things but i don't enjoy watching movies anymore, which sucks because i used to fucking love movies. maybe i watched too many and hate it now and need to take a break
the internet sucks like that sometimes. fuck popular opinion though, if you love it you love it, who cares what anyone else thinks. i neglect to revisit stuff i loved growing up because my life sucks now and if i revisited stuff i have fond memories of it'd probably suck now and ruin it
I'm not reading these
this is probably it. and then you feel even worse for not enjoying things that other people enjoy anymore, having drained all the enjoyment out of it through overindulgence. i feel the need to do something productive and not passively consume. you can't enjoy stuff if you haven't earned it
I liked rat race as a kid and it's stupid now
I know, but when i try to do something productive after 30-60minutes im like "fuck this lets browse some youtube or something"
i still think of that movie
especially the part with the sideboobies
i find it easier to focus on things when i'm outside and the only distractions are strangers. like reading or just thinking in general. maybe we've rewired our brains to constantly seek dopamine, which is why i can't focus on a movie unless i'm drinking a beer and satisfying my dopamine receptors. might be good to shut off our computers for a week and see if life improves
I hear ya, user. I haven’t liked a movie since There Will be Blood, and that was only for DDL’s performance. New movies have no life in them, or something. Unless John McTiernan makes a comeback, I’ll never watch another one.
Yeah i have reasearched this a lot, there is something called "dopamine fast" that should reset you, for 24 hours you avoid every electrical device, phones/tv/PC etc. i tried many times and failed miserably...
stop drinking soi unironically
I had stopped watching movies and shows, until I met this girl who has kino taste. She recommends a new kino every few days and I've started to enjoy watching movies and discussing them.
She recommends movies, I recommend books.
You just need a good friend to share the experience with.
i won't do a 24hr fast but i think i should start turning off my computer and reading a book instead.
used to be homeless and could only use the computer at the public library... technology is a luxury. i remember one time using a computer at an internet cafe and listening to music on it and stuff and it literally felt like heaven
SUDE MI
>She recommends movies, I recommend books.
that sounds based. maybe you're right. maybe i need a gf to watch kino with.
i have a bunch of hong sang-soo films to watch but it's harder for me to watch romantic comedies than extreme cinema or horror movies
Losers like you guys who can't achieve anything even in first world conditions, where everything is handled to you, should just be cast out to wilderness.
She isn't my gf yet. We just bonded over our taste of korean and Iranian movies.
You just need a like minded person who is passionate about the same hobby. There's a saying in my language, 1 is alone but 2 is like 11 (having another person with you is like having the power of 11 people).
>You just need a like minded person who is passionate about the same hobby
lmao if i talk to a bitch she's like
>why are you ____? are you ____?
i.e. why are you watching a movie? are you a critique? are you a filmmaker?
why are you breathing air? are you a tree?
etc
all bitches care about is money and social status. maybe you're a kid and hobbies still matter to the bitch you're talking to
kys pajeet
She's 29 and I'm 32
You're welcome.
oh, cool. wish i could meet someone like that. whenever i so much as mention a philosopher to a bitch she's like
>why are you bringing up philosophy? are you a philosophy professor?
stupid fucking bitches
wish i could meet a bitch who isn't stupid
are you watching older films or new ones? 2020 has been a pretty shit year movie wise so that might have something to do with it.
AFRICAN AMERICAN MICROPENIS

I'm nordic.
you're not nordic. you're american. faggot
>watching any kind of film or video based media ever
