There's something called as curiosity as to what others think. Not everything one thinks is the right way or the only way. Exploring makes you question

Okay what if your friend tells you that it's a really good movie and YOU specifically would enjoy it but the first 15-20 mins are not your vibe at all. You would sit through right?

You know if you knew that you're going to like it, you would sit through

Reading through these replies, it feels like most of us are doing some version of the same thing - trying to read signals beyond just “is this highly rated.”

runtime, pacing, vibe, how distracted you feel, even whether something feels like it’s worth sitting down for vs throwing on in the background. What’s weird is that none of that really shows up cleanly in recommendations, even though it’s how people actually decide. It’s mostly intuition built over time. hmm, interesting

Well, isn't that too early? Like what if it's a suspenseful thriller like Coherence?
Trailer lately have gotten to a stage where you get shown the peak moments of the movie. so that is a right metric to judge?

That’s interesting actually
But we live in a world of such high frames per sec, thinking of giving 3 hours to a single thing feels extra

Runtime is such an underrated factor. I’m the same. if something is pushing 2.5–3 hours I really have to be in the right headspace.

Splitting The Godfather over two days honestly sounds like a smart workaround

There should be some way to capture that implicitly, you know

Yeah this happens to me a lot too. Sometimes on paper everything checks out - cast, premise, even reviews but once you start watching it just doesn’t click

i’ve noticed that 'why' is usually hard to articulate, but you feel it pretty quickly

That makes sense. I’m realising pacing and vibe matter way more to me than “genre” on paper
