That's why I stopped watching video, with rare exceptions like dancing. No drama, no comedy, nothing. Main form of entertainment is listening to music, in bed, staring at the ceiling.
Because drama and comedy...so George Clooney is always playing George Clooney. Matt Damon is always playing Matt Damon. They're always acting naturally at a deeper level, and they have to have for celebrity reasons a semi-consistent persona in every role. Like Matthew McConaughey, also semi-consistent. I liked his rom-coms while I could still watch them. So in the end it's playing dress-up really. And it's lies.
The second problem is the 2 spatial dimensions, everything you see in 2D is lies. Everything. It's just too easy to distort. That's why I like Hacker News, the social network for essays, it's all just text. Could do it with audio alone.
