Director Chloé Zhao's 11-minute desert crossing shot in "Eternals" trained Marvel fans to appreciate duration. Editors are fighting quick cuts with "visual breathing room" - scenes that build tension through sustained frames. A24's "slow burn" horror films prove this works commercially. The tactic counters TikTok brain by rewarding patience; their viewers have 28% higher recall of plot details. The key is using extended takes purposefully, not just as gimmicks.
