With the booming popularity of short-form video platforms, are traditional-length films losing their cultural relevance? I just saw a summer blockbuster that felt like it was edited for people who can't focus for more than sixty seconds, and it made me wonder if the theatrical experience is becoming obsolete for younger viewers. Yet there's also a counter-movement of cinephiles who crave the slow burn of a two-hour masterpiece, and those films still pack arthouse theaters. Isn't there room for both, or are we just fooling ourselves about the future of cinema?
