How far into a book/show/game/movie before you DNF?

(Anonymous) 2023-10-05 08:28 pm (UTC)(link)
I gave Attack on Titan a good try. I watched 33 episodes. I can't do anymore. So, I've decided to DNF (but read all the Levi/Erwin fic as a consolation).

For shows, probably around 2-3 hours, depending on episode length. Same for games. If I've been watching three hours of your show and nothing grabs my interest I'm very much done.

For games it really varies why I don't like it. If it's boring then probably also around 2-3 hours, but if the mechanics annoy me I'll quit a lot sooner.

For a movie it's probably around an hour, which is still better than books. I quit books ten pages in if I have to.

That movie poster is dope. No opinion on the secret as I haven't seen the movie but I love that poster.

I take it this isn't the general consensus? I don't really see every Marvel movie and I'd been looking forward to BP2 before Chadwick Boseman died, but after his passing I lost interest and never got around to seeing it.

For books, I try to give it one chapter or 25 pages. If I've gotten that far and I'm struggling to not be bored, I give up. IMO, books should preferably hook me within the first paragraph. I've got too many books on my reading list to waste time on a dud, though.

I'll finish most movies. I can only think of two I have not.

Shows I'll give 2-3 hours worth of content.

For games I have an hour.

If a book doesn't capture my attention in the first 30 pages, I'm done. I don't got time to slog thru books.

Pretty sure this is a standard human-nature thing...any time you start pretending to like something ironically, there's a good chance you'll Jedi-mind-trick yourself into being a fan for real.

However you got there, enjoy your new ship!

Movie: it's either 5-20 minutes and if I'm not feeling it I nope out OR I get a little over an hour in and nope out

Show: Most new shows I watch don't get past one episode. I also have historically given up on shows halfway through season 2 or 3.

Books: Either 2-3 pages or 2/3 through a book.

I just can't get into yuri duty

I thought it was good, and worth seeing on the big screen.

Books: I'll almost always finish the first chapter just to see if has something that will hook me.
Shows: An episode or two, though this is the one form of media where I've been known to fall off after a season or two instead if it goes in a direction that loses my interest. (Actually nm if books are in a series I might do that too.)
Games: Very quickly. If I spend more than a couple of hours playing a game, I inevitably finish it.
Movies: Because they're so short I've only DNF'd a couple of movies in my entire life (usually by skipping around to see if it gets good, and dropping it if it doesn't - Ammonite and Bacurau come to mind). I've walked out of a theatre and asked for my money back exactly once, for The Musketeer (2001).

For modern tv shows, the pilot. They never take the time to flesh out characters anymore, so if they don't grab me immediately I'm out.

Books, about ten pages.

I finish most movies, but if it's offensive to me in some way, I'll nope out whenever.

Games, if the gameplay is good, I'll probably finish it even if I don't much care for the storyline. If the story line is good, but the game play is crap, I usually set it aside to try again later. I have about three that I have yet to return to and finish. If it's both, generally about five hours, just to confirm that it is both.
