Why Did Movies Stop Feeling Big?

Описание: Why Movies Don’t Feel Big Anymore
There was a time when movies didn’t just release…
they arrived. You remember it. Opening weekends. Packed theaters. Lines around the building. The feeling that a movie wasn’t just something to watch — it was an event. So what happened?

In this video, we’re diving into why movies used to feel bigger, why they brought everyone together, and why that shared moviegoing magic doesn’t hit the same way today. From the theatrical experience and practical filmmaking to streaming culture and the endless flood of content, we’re looking at how the way we watch movies changed — and how that changed how movies feel.

As someone who grew up during the peak moviegoing era and later spent decades working in filmmaking and film education, this is both a fan’s perspective and a filmmaker’s perspective on what made movies feel larger than life… and what we may have lost along the way.

If you’ve ever walked out of a theater feeling like you just experienced something unforgettable — this one’s for you.
