Range is something you develop later in life, or not at all. Young people in each generation like mostly stuff that is made for them.
There are people who say "2001: A Space Odyssey" is unwatchable because it has low pace. They just don't have patience to watch a movie like that and they take out their phone to do something during the scene.
- alisonkisk 5y ago2001 was intentionally slow to make you feel how boring space travel is. It's a clever idea but it's a movie for a much slower paced world with fewer options for things to do.
- pvaldes 5y agoProbably. The same trick of deliberately boring the viewer for creating a sense of immersion had been used 19 years before, in the (excellent) film 'Stray dog'.
- developer93 5y agoIt was unwatchable because it relied on you having read the book to know what was going on. I would usually recommend reading the book and skipping the movie.
