RE: Unlikely

in Freewriters8 days ago

I feel quite restless when watching movies anymore because as I have observed myself, If I do watch a movie I would often just pause it to check on Facebook, the market, or even YouTube for that matter to look for YouTube videos that would be interesting for me to watch in the middle of watching a movie.

Well maybe because I am just watching most of movies with my laptop because it is more comfortable for me to do so rather than to sit on our living room but the reason is maybe that I had gotten bored of watching movies unlike in my younger years especially when we are just renting out VHS and later video CDs from the now non-existent video rental shops due to the onset of the Internet.

Anyway, like Korean movies especially the war movies, they really make great movies in South Korea like the romantic TV series which is why Korean personalities and even their food is popular here in my place. 😀👍 @wakeupkitty, I am wondering if you are a Korean or Chinese.

It sounds as if you have trouble to stay focused. I experienced the same if it comes to watching films on TV. We have commercials every 15 minutes for 10-15 minutes so it takes 4 hours of longer to watch a film (don't forget the news). I stopped watching TV years ago. Only have one left for gaming or watching videos (still have the VHS and the players) or CD and also have films on USB (stick into the TV) but I rarely use it these days. On my phone (still in bed) is easier and the VIKI app works great.

I am from a mixed family and one of my grandmothers is Chinese as well.

I watched some Chinese films and they are great too, also detectives. I believe the Koreans are more promoted and so is their food although it's with us perhaps in the cities but a china town you find in most capital cities and also Chinese shops. Next to that in the Netherlands, the Chinese restaurants were always present just like snack bars. Many snack bars are taken over by the Chinese as well. The Chinese restaurants are mixed with Indonesian food, a very smart step they made over 60 years ago, perhaps longer?

Perhaps you should try to watch series? The episodes are shorter. Some 20 minutes. Good to kill a bit time and set your mind off before you do something else.

You can give me a tip what you like and I see if I can watch it as well.
By the way: on youtube you can see episodes too.

A good Friday to you. I hope you are doing fine and your mom is as well.

I don't know but watching movies now in particular bores me a lot unlike when I was younger in the VCD renting days. I guess that I had "grown-up" enough not to enjoy movies anymore especially now that my favorite actors and actresses had grown old if not died or retired.

But also maybe because that I have no more companion to watch them too as my siblings which I always watch movies with before are no longer here in the house while my father would not watch movies with me. Both my parents are just watching Facebook videos now while I myself in quite enjoying the YouTube videos.

I can't recommend you to watch anything but Korean love stories they call "Koreanovela" are popular here in my place, young folks just likes Koreans not knowing that these actors and actresses really had undergone so much surgical procedures to their faces but regardless they offer lots of entertainment value for younger people.

I remember watching "House" because my brother had bought a big collection of its video CDs. It caught my attention because the series is focused on medical stuff and its quite enjoyable to watch back then. Now its different, I just watch online.

Enjoy your weekend too @wakeupkitty🌹🌹🌹
