I've noticed this too. It is really pronounced when you watch old movies vs new movies today. Probably because editing was a PITA and now is really easy.

- sjg007 5y agoAlso the same thing happens with music. I take Jazz or classical music as an example. If you really get into them then I've found listening to most pop music has become slow and boring.
- dghughes 5y agoModern TV shows or streaming shows have lost their opening theme song scenes. I can see for TV to stuff more ads in to make more money. On streaming opening themes could be long but people have no patience so they'd just skip it.
- bluefirebrand 5y agoI feel this is a really bad example. If I'm watching one episode a week of course I don't mind watching the opening theme every single time. If I'm watching six in a row of course I'm going to skip it every time. A recent example of this is Peacemaker. It is a made-for-streaming show that was on a weekly release schedule, and it has one of the most fun opening sequences I've ever seen. Watching it weekly, I watched the opening every time. But one week I skipped it so I watched two the next week, and of course I skipped it on the second episode that day
