    Actually....... Not the most insane idea to let people scroll through clips to be introduced to shows or movies, and they can bookmark them to watch later. This is the closest this format will get to casually introducing people to media by airing them in succession on tv

    it is funny that quibi (and facebook, and Snap) tried to do this by funding an entirely new slate of original short form videos when perhaps the back catalog was what was needed all along....

    so what i've been seeing a ton of floating through twitter lately is like 2 to 3 minute clips of straight up ripped movies, usually famous scenes that are engaging this is basically what tiktok has been doing forever, a growth hack now disney legitimizing it with its own IP

    do you ever feel insane for living through the comical failure of quibi only to realize they were pure uncut geniuses
