Yeah this is something I’ve personally experienced, and have seen people reference more online. Idk if this is a recent phenomenon or something that’s always existed but some people seem to get anxious at the basic plot structure of a story and need to be given spoilers.
My mom does this. Looks up what we’re watching on Wikipedia. I suspect has some kind of ADHD because she can’t finish anything.
perhaps she would finish it if she didn’t spoil it for herself
I think its always been a thing, but it does seem more common now
I have this conversation with my kids all the time.
I feel like you owe them an answer if you’re shooting at dogs
“Sometimes pets need a warm home to come home to; these rounds also need a warm home too”
That’s what happens when you don’t speak Norwegian.
Stemmer det ja.
Starmer IS in debt, yeah!
lmao
SHUT UP STOP SPEAKING STOP ASKING QUESTIONS WATCH THE GOD DAMN MOVIE AAAAAAAAAAAAAA
I actually sat next to a guy in deadpool who almost every twenty minutes would repeat what he just saw on screen in amazement as if something had been revealed but not shown; for example when deadpool is shot and the bullet bounces off something in his pocket, the guy literally turned to his friend in amazement and said “he had <whatever the thing was> in his pocket and the bullet bounced off it!”
Yes, the thing you just saw happen is the thing that happened. No his friend isn’t blind.
I have started trying to answer with this sentiment but more politely / sensitively, because people could be asking “did I miss something?”
The best answer is: the movie has not revealed that answer yet.
“ask that again at the end”
If I don’t understand something happening in a movie, I tend to think maybe someone else does. Like, maybe the information was already presented and I just didn’t get it.
okay but this is the opening scene
Literally the second after the opening credits.
Why are they shooting at the dog?
*record scratch*
*freeze frame*
Yep, that’s me. You’re probably wondering how I got into this situation.
Haha. Okay, that’s different. 😂
my partner was watching a movie with another guy last night?
getting “the film will reveal itself in its own time” tattooed on my forehead for this exact scenario
Some people just don’t “get” that they’re watching a movie.
Just imagine this not being a movie, the question would be totally warranted, it’s useful to try to exchange information about things happening around you. Especially when it’s something extreme like this which may require certain behavior of yourself to survive.
Don’t get annoyed at people talking innocently like this during movies, it’s mostly automatic. Like others said, just gently remind them that the movie hasn’t revealed that yet and to
SHUTTT THE FUCK UPPPPtry to be quiet until the end.I read it with Michael Parentis voice in my head
