There are many classic movies I haven't seen, even tv shows. I'm sure I'll get around to many of them but I'm in no rush, I might not watch Apocalypse Now until 2025 but I don't care.

It's great to multi-task.
So not even on separate screens?

I almost always browse the web while watching shows/movies but they're separate screens. But even with separate screens I realize I miss a lot of key points from the movie/show at 1x speed.

You can multi task but your attention can only really be focused on one thing.

What do you mean by this? You don't want to see black panther specifically because you're black?

It shocks me that so many people have not seen at least the original Star Wars movie trilogy. Why not, out of curiosity? The original Star Wars movies are classics and it surprises me so many adults haven't seen them. If you like sci-fi or action at all you'll like them.

I do, but it's easy to multitask. Granted I'm not constantly doing something else while watching movies, I usually watch the movie and if my attention is drifting during the slower parts I quickly check something online while the movie is still playing. Even on 1.5x speed some movies are STILL too slow. I don't need to see so many scenes of characters walking around hallways or the streets basically doing nothing.

No, I have no real interest, like most Marvel films, but it's expected of me to have seen it or plan to see it because I'm black.

Lol yeah. I know some basic stuff about the Dragon Ball series even though I have only watched like 10 episodes of all DB animated series combined.

I also know THAT BIG SPOILER from Final Fantasy VII even though I've never played the game in my life.
