In November last year I went to see a full length showing of Abel Gance's Napoleon. The showing was sold out, and always is whenever it's on. Similarly, people watch box sets in one sitting, long operas and ballets. People read long novels - Proust, Dostoevski, Harry Potter. We don't waste time on superficial crap, that's all.
