It's (mostly) in your own minds, real to reel: Re:stricted Audiences, Spaces.

"Now 😕 Showing": Finally, after all the hype, trailers -- including the ones we watched before, then eventually after, about other movies, the ones we were subjected to, endure, in order to finally get to see the "Main Feature! The ones that are now selected for you, me, 'digitally', almost instantaneously, by an AI consultant, as in "things, features, movies, books, (we) thought you might enjoy" based on your viewing, buying, habits...😉😟😃 Which started showing up for me, additionally, in the form of a "first chapter of the next book, due out..." of an author whose works I grew fond of, left me wanting more (that's the point, I imagine...) -- it's kinda' like when, you are compressed by time and space, in a "mad dash" to catch a flight, you have just enough time to "grab-n-go!" from a so-called friendly, convenience store, which capitalizes on not only your capital but your STM not being as strong as LT, that you may forgot a few toiletries, a snack for the long flight which may no longer offer them inflight, which may not offer me keep me preferred viewing fare...I have just enough time and space in my space-age carry on, to onboard a novel, which has me scrambling for one which will keep me occupied, whose job it is, to first grab my attention, as I resort to the time-tested reading of the few comments, reviews, pre-views, all contained on the back cover...which has already set mi imagination in motion, before even opening the cover, before the first scene, action! un-folds (that's the point, I imagine)...

Re-Union: Trailers, critics, and now You-tubers forming a sort of union, a 'virtual' cottage industry. The first two of which had been with earlier movie-goers, some of which we grew to rely on, in order to max out our viewing pleasure, especially with the rising costs of attending in-person, before we either re-stricted by age ("R" rated) or by circumstances, the latter of which has eased lately, the former of which seems to have made in impact as we as a society have become de-sensitized (?)...Then along comes the ad-vent of sequels, the ones that were add-ons, when our pals in Hollywood realized the reality of what we longed for, asked for, started inundating the writers, directors, actors..."FANDOM!" And then, now, we also, of course, find ourselves being able to see what actually came before...after, in the form of pre-quels...which may set us reeling, as in a state of confusion, in search of clarity, attempt to gain closure, prompt us once again to view the "original" (that's probably the point, I imagine). Collectively, all this viewing, the originals, the old, new, pre-post-in-the-moment, experiences that have either been those you have viewed vicariously through the movies, or "this is for real" form you very own video library. Yes, whether you know it or not, whether by vocation or on vacation, you have become a...

Virtual Archivist: As in the vast accumulation, by now, even if you a younger gen, given the amount of screen time you manage to amass in a day, despite your parents' decree otherwise...the accumulation of your favs, as well as those you, especially older gens, may have found so dis-tase-full ("I've had my fill!") that you took the financial hit and left this so-called "big hit!" in the rear view, wa-y-y-y before the action climaxed...The lasting impressions of both good and bad virtual and real life experiences, that may, depending on the time of day/night and circumstances ("triggers") get called up, even intentionally...
