Binge Watching / Vi Stark Rant Time 📺

Riddle me this one please 🙏 why is it that the human brain has the capacity to continue a series without stopping? 🧐

First, we have a log line, which is that juicy one-liner that describes what a movie or series is about. We all know this, it’s the summary that captures the reader and peaks the viewer’s interest despite us might not wanting to see the series or film. I bet, we all had that feeling where we don’t know to watch something or not, but it’s that long-line that makes us interested 👀 (it also helps hearing it from the perspective of someone else who had already seen the product before!)

A good log-line answers the “What is it?” question, clearly and enticingly. Most log-lines will state the central conflict of the story and provide some sort of an emotional hook to stimulate interest.

Secondly, the open loops! We are all too familiar with those dang cliffhangers at the end of our favorite TV shows that leaves us wanting more, feeling annoyed or antsy cause we want to know what happens next! What are is rest of this story? What comes next? Is Meredith gonna end up with Derek or not?! Are Mark and Lexie gonna stay how they truly feel?

The human brain is so complex yet captivating as it wants to comprehend and close that loop.

This is why SO MANY people end up binge watching their favorite series til the end in a single weekend. We need the answers! Sometimes it’s not answers, sometimes it’s that simple evoking energy the series gives us that might be comfort, that leads up to keep watching.

Third, the storytelling duh! What do really great TV shows and movies have in common? They have all mastered the art of transporting you out of your living room and into an entirely different world that they’ve created. And they do this through extremely thorough sensory detail and descriptive storytelling. The lighting, the music, the dialogue, the carefully crafted costumes and landscaping, they all play a pivotal role in your cinematic experience.

But all of this can be carefully replicated just as well, if not better through great writing! That’s because great storytelling brings out all of your senses, sounds, taste, sight and even the smells.

The Nintendo DS Digital TV Tuner is a device that plugs into a DS and allows it to receive and view digital TV broadcasts.

It comes with an extra cable and suction cups to stick to your window for better signal! I've always wanted an excuse to hook my DS up to a window ;u;

Also look at this marvelous person: "It looks like a snail"

And like many Japanese Nintendo sites, this one is still online: https://www.nintendo.co.jp/ds/unsj/index.html

There, it recommends...

Attaching it to your FRIDGE??

Lastly, you can play some Game & Watch games on it!

Still kind of in disbelief that hands down the best capture card I have for GameCube games was some random thing I found for free on Craigslist

GBA TV tuner I bought back in 2012. I would use this to play my Wii and other consoles in the GBA SP screen back when we only had 1 TV at home, so this was my way of continuing playing games when my parents wanted to watch TV after work.

Screen may have been really tiny and low res, but it was better than nothing.

I never really used it for TV cause the reception was always poor and never got any good channel on it.
