I wouldn't be surprised.
I stopped watching movies because it seems new movies are missing any interesting plot in them. It is like people making these movies and paying for these movies focused all on special effects and forgot that without an actual interesting plot these are just completely hollow.
So if your job is to "make a movie" and you forgot on a point on the TODO list that says "make the plot interesting" then I am not surprised sound engineers can forget "make it work in end user setting".
- pnutjam 5y agoHonestly, most of the new good stuff is series; not movies. With the way television and streaming allows series with decent budgets, it's easier to craft a compelling story over 9 hours. Movies are more akin to "novellas" since they are time limited. How many people really read that many novellas or short stories?
- lmilcin 5y agoI like SF and I read a lot of short stories, regularly. But I admit I prefer longer books or even series because if something is interesting I don't like it to end too quickly and I like the feeling of being embedded within the world. If you had no previous exposure to Star Trek and watched any single episode of Star Trek DS9 it might not be very compelling. What makes it compelling is the attachment to the characters and the knowledge of the backstory the episode is embedded in.
