Speaking part 3: Film

1. What movies are young people watching now?

I think it greatly depends on each person’s taste in movies. As far as I am concerned, the youths are largely drawn to movies with fast-paced and thrilling ones, so action movies with impressive visual and sound effects are definitely their go-to choice since they offer some heart-pounding experience. Additionally, the popularity of superhero movies and fantasy franchises has significantly increased among young audiences in recent years as well.

2. What is the difference between going to the cinema and at home?

I guess the main difference between watching movies in a theater and at home lies in the overall experience. Going to the cinema, people immerse themselves in a setting with a big screen, high-quality sound systems, and a shared experience with other moviegoers while movie time at home offers the comfort and convenience of being in our own space, and doing whatever we want with the movie since we can control the pace we want to watch. 

3. Do you think people will prefer watching movies in theaters in the future?

It’s hard to predict with certainty here to be honest. I think it still greatly depends on each person’s interest and what offers they can get from it. While it is clearly seen that movie theaters are going to be more and more developed and they will be the only place where people can enjoy newly released movies with an immersive experience, so no doubt cinema will gain more popularity soon. However, with the booming development of media platforms online, lots of people will gravitate towards binge watching movies in their own comfort space.
