TikTok Has Ruined Moviegoers

In recent years, there has been a debate on whether TikTok has adversely impacted people's attention spans, particularly when it comes to watching longer movies. Contrary to popular belief, there remains a significant audience that enjoys long films, despite also consuming short-form content like TikTok videos.

For instance, Christopher Nolan's "Oppenheimer," which runs for three hours, and "Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse," with a duration of 2 hours and 20 minutes, have both been well-received. Even Zach Snyder's "Justice League," totaling four hours, has garnered a dedicated viewership that watched and appreciated the entire movie.

While shorter, 90-minute films have their merits, many viewers still embrace lengthier movies provided they offer engaging content. As such, it's debatable that TikTok's short-form nature significantly hampers the ability to appreciate longer films.
