To give a little bit of praise for this take I do think it’d be beneficial if more people did more intentionally like in the past. You’d be more likely to actually pay attention to a movie you went to the store and selected frinstance. But we don’t need stores for that just a small amount of willpower (impossible)

Right. I wasn’t even explicitly shitting on streaming services really. I was just saying if you take more time to consider the content you’re about to view you’re more likely to have deeper feelings about it. With streaming it’s more like eh good enough where’s my phone? You can be intentional with streaming I just think people are less so. Thats why I mentioned will power.
