We Can Bet That You’re Guilty of One of These Binge-Watching Habits!

We know you’ve spent more time binge-watching movies and TV shows on Netflix more than ever. There’s nothing like a good film or TV show to provide you with some exciting entertainment and escapism, especially during this crazy period that appears like an episode of Black Mirror.

However, you might have noticed (or maybe not) that you’ve picked up some habits over time- from hitting playback several times to pausing at intervals and tweeting about every scene.

We’ve lined up some of the habits below. Which of them are you guilty of?

Being Indecisive About What to Watch

We’re all guilty of doing this, aren’t we? There’s so much content to consume, and sometimes, you get stuck. You spend over 30 minutes looking for the perfect thing to watch that suits your mood. Sometimes, you eventually find something to watch. Other times, you opt for something you’ve already viewed several times.

Playing Scenes Back Over and Over

For some people, they might have a short attention span and might have drifted off during the movie. Sometimes, a scene is so intriguing or unbelievable; you have to play it back multiple times to let it sink in. This could be super upsetting if you’re watching it with someone else, though or when you’re at the cinema, where you don’t have the power to do so.

Tweeting Your Way Through The Movie

People who do this want to give their opinions about the movie minute by minute like it’s a live football match. They don’t mind dropping spoilers here and there; they want everyone on Twitter to know what they’re currently watching.

People who do this have eagle eyes ready to point out every detail, down to the tiniest one. They love to give their two cents at all times, and they’ll talk about plot holes, technical errors, sound issues are more. If this is your habit, it’s not such a bad thing. Just try to avoid watching movies with other people.
